    Singer James Blunt 'stopped World War 3'

    ...no. Really...


    Singer James Blunt has told the BBC how he refused an order to attack Russian troops when he was a British soldier in Kosovo.

    Blunt said he was willing to risk a court martial by rejecting the order from a US General.

    But he was backed by British General Sir Mike Jackson, who told him "I'm not going to have my soldiers be responsible for starting World War 3".

    His music is tripe, although loved by a lot of middle aged housewives & he did go through a popular phase about 6 years ago. Fair play to him with anything from his military days though!

    That doesn't make up for "You're Beautiful."
