Jamie Miller becomes first Welsh solo male artist to top UK singles chart
Jamie Miller says life will never be the same after his song Babydoll became the first UK number one by a Welsh solo male artist in 41 years.
Historic chart achievement confirmed
The 29-year-old singer from Pontprennau in Cardiff topped the UK singles chart last week. He is the first Welsh artist to reach number one since Sian Evans appeared on DJ Fresh's Louder. This marks the first time a solo male Welsh act has achieved this feat since Shakin Stevens released Merry Christmas Everyone in 1985.
Personal struggles before success
Miller took two years off music to deal with a really hard few years in his personal life. He previously had to give up on his career for a time before returning with this track. The song found fame after actress Jennifer Love Hewitt posted videos featuring the track on TikTok.
Singer reflects on reality
The artist stated that nothing feels normal anymore as he comes to terms with his history-making success. He described the last year as insane while moving from watching Gavin and Stacey with his parents to receiving messages from the cast. Miller said his dreams have come true in a way that does not feel real.
