Babydoll singer says life will 'never be the same again' after UK number one

Jamie Miller says "nothing feels normal" anymore but he is trying to "live in the moment" as he comes to terms with his history-making song Babydoll.

Last week the 29-year-old became the first Welsh artist to top the UK singles chart in 15 years with the viral TikTok hit.

The singer, who is originally from Pontprennau in Cardiff, said his dreams had "come true" and life would "never be the same again" after a challenging few years in which he even had to give up on music for a time.

Miller said the last year had been "insane" as he has gone from watching Gavin and Stacey with his parents to getting messages on his social media from the cast.

Miller made history when he became the first Welsh artist to top the singles chart since Sian Evans' feature on DJ Fresh's Louder.

He is also the first solo male Welsh artist in 41 years to top the singles chart, after Shakin' Stevens' 1985 timeless festive hit, Merry Christmas Everyone.

"It just doesn't feel real. To actually live my dreams the way that it's coming about right now," he said.

The song found fame on TikTok when actress Jennifer Love Hewitt posted videos featuring the track. But Miller said the "genuineness" of the track also made it stand out as his first song since his hiatus.

"I went through a really, really hard few years in my personal life, and I took two years off music," he said.

"There's a genuineness to how I sound in the song. The world's in a little bit of a dark place right now so maybe that's why it's made people come together."
