Olly Murs says his music comes before his presenting
Olly Murs says he's sad that he won't be part of this year's Xtra Factor. The singer says he's not presenting the ITV2 spin-off show so that he can work on new music.
He said: "I think I just wanted to focus on this third album, promoting that across the world."
The star, who found fame after appearing on The X Factor, also says he's earned his right to play big festivals and gigs.
He was speaking to Newsbeat's entertainment reporter Nesta McGregor at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Londonderry.
