Same age as me - not good to be dying at this age...

I just looked it up, he was married to Natasha Henstridge (yep, her from Species).

You have to wonder when they say died what they actually mean?

Accidental OD
Suicide

As sad as it is lots of people suddenly 'die' in hotel rooms.

He got really sick a few years ago after swallowing water from the thames. It might be related.

Not far off my age though, definitely too young.

I thought he was older than me too (43). That would make him 18 when he did his Britney routine on Popstars!

After making himself look a tit he made a proper career for himself. RIP

That’s a sit age to go. RIP.

An ex-colleague (who I get on well with) met him in a bar - not so long after the pop idol crap, and ended up sitting/chatting with him for a couple of hours. Reckoned he was “totally sound” and very different from the persona painted via that show.

41 is no age at all.

Had no idea he was rolling in the circles he was - married to Natasha Henstridge, friends with Rebel Wilson and Gerard Bulter? I assumed after his brief success he wasa back to working a regular 9-5 like the rest of us chumps.

Istr seeing him on a couple of (chat?) shows and thought the same. The persona got him noticed and to the West End etc. though, it did its job.
No age to go, whatever the cause. R.i.p.
