The 25-year-old singer is known for his hilarious onstage antics, as he recently confessed the real reason he hasn't released any new music. After taking a break from social media and live performances during the Covid lockdown, Capaldi is back and better than ever performing on stage in front of impressed audiences.
Speaking to fans on stage in Dublin a few weeks ago, for not making a new album during lockdown, saying he spent the majority of the time "masturbating". The Bathgate born singer played a sold out Malahide Castle gig on Saturday night, more than two years after the show was supposed to take place.
Covid delays meant the star was finally able to play his first album to the fans, although he started off the night by saying he was sorry for not having any new songs. During his headline performance at the Isle of Wight festival, he admitted he had been 'lazy' over the Covid lockdown joked that he has had ‘lots of sex’.
He told fans: “I’m very rusty at this. It’s been a while since I did a gig like this, which is also what I tell every girl I have a one night stand with. Yes I have had lots of sex. Lots of sex. This is gonna be fun, but I’m very nervous.”
Lewis also added: “I was meant to play new music but I’m a lazy c**t and didn’t do it over lockdown.”
