Life and career
He appeared in The X Factor, and on 8 November 2011 Cocozza left the show, admitting his life had "gone out of control" while taking part in the show.[2] He has released 2 EPs, a sell-out tour, and is currently working on an album with his band, the Telescreen.[3]
In January 2012, months after leaving The X Factor, Cocozza became a housemate on the ninth series of Celebrity Big Brother. He finished in second place losing out to actress and television presenter Denise Welch.
On 5 November 2012 Cocozza released his debut EP online, which reached no 19 on iTunes.[4] 'She's Got A Motorcycle' was released as a single, with an accompanying video posted to YouTube. The music video shows Cocozza riding a motorcycle towards a wall of fire. The Daily Mail described it as showing his "energetic side" and receiving a "love or hate him". The single reached number 89 in the UK chart.[5]
On 21 April 2013, Cocozza released his second EP to iTunes, titled 'Embrace' which failed to chart [6]
On 13 September 2013 Cocozza and his band The Telescreen announced through their official PledgeMusic site that they were planning to release a debut album set to launch early 2014 if funding succeeded.[1] On 26 February 2014 Cocozza released his band's debut single 'Kids' online.[7]
