Rascal : I never think about 1bn audience!!

Rapper Dizzee Rascal expressed that he never thinks how many people were watching him at the Olympics opening ceremony.

He told TV show BBC Breakfast: ''I wasn't thinking about the billion people. To me, I wasn't even thinking about the people around me in the stadium too much.

''I kind of knew I was performing to the dancers, because they had so much energy, and so much positivity, so I was kind of performing to them. And that just kind of made it easier.''

When asked if he thought the Olympics is a positive thing for the whole community, he replied: ''I don't know about the whole community, because obviously, over there, in the estate where I'm from, some people don't feel a big part of it.

''But it is a time when the world's coming together, it's a good time for some realisation. I didn't want it to be about, 'yeah, winning, winning, winning.' I want it to be positive but I want people to know about what's going on in the world.''

Dizze a big fan of Queen Elizabeth!!!

Queen Elizabeth is a big fan of Dizzee Rascal.

 Elizabeth Grandson Prince William told to UK Prime Minister David Cameron when he performed at the Olympic Games opening ceremony on Friday (27.07.12).

Mr. Cameron turned to William's wife Duchess Catherine and said: "My favourite part of the opening ceremony was when your husband leant over and said to me 'I don't know if you know, Prime Minister, but my grandmother is a great fan of Dizzee Rascal'."

He added: "Not many people know this but, if you want superstars, of course all the big actors currently playing Batman, Spiderman or Superman are all actually British.

"If it's storytelling you are after, three of the best movie franchises of all time - Bond, 'Lord Of The Rings' and 'Harry Potter' - are all British.

"If it's music you're after, of course Adele had the bestselling album this year.

"If it's television you're after, you need look no further than the fact that the president of the United States' favourite TV programme is overwhelmingly starring British actors, in of course 'Homeland'."
