UK Olympian & one of Hit Zone's Best Role Models of 2012, Tom Daley had quite the year last year competing in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Since then he's become quite the celebrity in the UK and has even made a few famous friends along the way, including One Direction. Digital Spy caught up with the Olympic diver to ask him if he'd ever consider a singing career.
"It's been really cool to get to know the One Direction boys, mainly Liam out of all of them, who I am really good mates with."
"Maybe I will sing with them but you would have to auto-tune the F out of me! I couldn't go on X Factor anytime soon," he added.
Liam defended Tom on Twitter after he received abusive tweets for his dives early on in the Olympics. Since then the two seem to be pretty good friends, they even partied together on Halloween at London's Funky Buddah Club.
Tom also talked about how he's currently too busy to have a girlfriend at the moment.
"I'm definitely getting a lot of female attention now, which is good. It's fun. It's very different to how things were a couple of years ago," he said.
"I am a single man at the moment, I don't have time to change it," he continued. "It is very surreal but I am wary that some people might be nice to me just because of who I am. I have a group of normal, close friends who keep me grounded."
