Daniel Bedingfield’s new album ‘Second First Impression’ was a sales flop, but Neil Sean of Sky News reports that he’s already working on a new album that will be out later this year entitled ‘Naked’. “I am going back to basics, going all acoustic, some new songs and some old,” Bedingfield said. “I have found that this worked best on my recent tour and fans love it.”

Daniel Bedingfield joined Capital FM’s Johnny Vaughan and the gang in the studio for a pre-Brits gossip and a live performance. He was also set a series of challenges including beat boxing and tossing a pancake. The interview and pictures have since been removed from capitalfm.com.

The Mirror reports that Daniel Bedingfield has been secretly dating novelist and poet Samantha Almon. The couple went public with their romance on Monday, with the singer taking Almon to see John Legend’s concert at The Scala in London’s King’s Cross. “They looked really smitten,” a spy revealed. “They were cuddled up together on the VIP balcony, kissing and dancing to the music. The only slightly annoying thing was Dan’s insistence on singing along loudly to every track. After the concert they left hand in hand.”
