The 'Beat Again' hitmaker also admitted he and his bandmates, Jonathan 'JB' Gill, Aston Merrygold and Marvin Humes, will happily dance to their own music when they go out.
Asked if he would dance to his own songs in a club, he said: "We did once. The DJ played our song and we started breaking out into our dance routine out of nowhere."
Marvin added: "We'd never do the whole routine though! We just try and act cool, like, 'Yeah, this is my song.' 'Beat Again' is always on at the gym. Not only are you having a good time, you're losing calories."

Snooki was paid $32,000 to speak at Rutgers - that's $2,000 more than the school is paying Nobel-winning novelist Toni Morrison to deliver the school's commencement speech.Life is good when you're the Princess of Poughkeepsie.
Snooki was paid $32,000 by Rutgers University's programming association to dish on her fist-pumping, pouf-wearing, hard-partying lifestyle on the "Jersey Shore" Thursday night.
That's $2,000 more than the school is paying Nobel-winning novelist Toni Morrison to deliver Rutgers' commencement address in May.
The pint-sized reality star, whose real name is Nicole Polizzi, appeared at two sold out Q&A sessions, donning a gold-headband, leopard-print gloves and a signature low-cut dress
According to Rutgers' Daily Targum, she chatted about a variety of subjects, including her trademark hair ("The pouf is its own living form"), if the drama on the show was real ("You can't make this sh-- up") and her biggest inspiration ("being tan").
No state funds or tuition money was used for the event, said university spokesman E. J. Miranda. He said the students use funds designated for student programming.
More than 2,000 students expressed their wish to attend the event, so a second show was added.
"The university does not censor the speakers students choose to invite on campus," Miranda told the Daily News in a statement, adding the show was promoted as a comedy act and not an academic program.
"As with any comedy show, the value of the content is subjective and students choose to attend based on their interests."
Snooki's speaking fee at Rutgers was approximately on par with what she makes per episode ? reportedly $30,000 ? on "Jersey Shore."
Some students waited hours to get a good seat, according to the Star-Ledger. Other students weren't quite as enthused.
"Such a waste of my money," freshman Dan Oliveto griped to the newspaper. "If I want to listen to someone talk, they should have something intelligent to say."
And what was Snooki's parting message? "Study hard, but party harder," she told the crowd.

The Cold War may be over, but lingering secrets about spies, traitors and government coverups fire the pages in Charles Cumming's intelligent and briskly paced The Trinity Six.

This is the book cover of Charles Cumming's Cold War novel, The Trinity Six.
This is the book cover of Charles Cumming's Cold War novel, The Trinity Six.
If you haven't read this British author, here's the scoop. Critics have been unabashed in their praise of his novels, including last's year's brilliantly concocted Typhoon . The action took place in Shanghai and Hong Kong in the late '90s just before Hong Kong was turned over to Chinese rule.
The Trinity Six is Cumming's fourth novel and comparisons to John le Carre and Len Deighton continue to gild his reputation as a premiere writer of espionage thrillers.
In this new novel, Cumming riffs on Britain's biggest real-life spy scandal and its most notorious double agent, Kim Philby. Philby ran the infamous Cambridge Five spy ring that passed Cold War intelligence to the Soviets beginning in the 1930s. His betrayals went unknown for decades even as he rose to the top position in British counterintelligence. Eventually, he defected to the U.S.S.R where he died in 1988.
What if there had been a sixth member of this spy ring? What if his existence were known by the British government? And what would the government do to anyone who tried to make this embarrassing knowledge public?
Those questions play out in this novel when Sam Gaddis, a London academic, begins research on a book about the Cold War. His online quest for information triggers an alert at MI6. Bad luck for Gaddis who's pulled into a deadly game of cat-and-mouse with British and Russian agents.
Tales of unassuming civilians dragged into political intrigue where bodies fall like dominoes are nothing new. But Cumming is a wonderful storyteller who makes you care about Gaddis' fate. You'll feel a part of Gaddis' run for his life in the U.K. and across the European continent. It's like we're dodging government agents with him. Like Gaddis, you'll never feel so alone.
The Trinity Six
By Charles Cumming St. Martin?s, 354 pp., $24.99Country hopping and border crossings are a classic espionage novel device, but Cumming makes it all feel fresh.
That includes a darkly atmospheric scene in Vienna's Prater Park, made famous in Graham Greene's master novel The Third Man and the iconic 1949 noir film starring Joseph Cotten and Orson Welles.
The Cold War is over, but in The Trinity Six it's hotter than ever.

Charlie Sheen debuted his highly hyped "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not An Option" tour at Detroit's Fox Theatre on Saturday night in front of a sold-out crowd that went from giving the star standing ovations to showering him with boos and finally crying "refund!"
So was it a winning performance? Not so much.

Things began inauspiciously. Comedian Kirk Fox came on at 8:10 pm to warm up the boisterous crowd, most of whom spent a lot of time booing the poor guy.
A few minutes later, Charlie came out and tried to save Fox by kissing him Jimmy Kimmel-style, saying: "Celebrate this man. I'll be right back, I promise." But as it turned out, that may have been the high point of the evening.
Charlie returned to start the show around nine, bringing out goddesses Nat and Bree in "Winning" T-shirts and had them make out. (OK, maybe that was the high point.) Later, the goddesses burned one of his trademark Two and a Half Men shirts. The show quickly devolved into a pastiche of movie clips (Jaws, Dirty Harry, Platoon, etc.), odd skits and erratic pronouncements.
Delivering a long, rambling faux-Presidential address, his "Manny-Fest-Oh," Sheen seemed to lose the crowd, and about 20 minutes into his address the boos began raining down in earnest.
The next set piece on the video screen was "Stalker Vids," a collection of random news clips, fan-generated videos referencing drugs and an animation of the "Call of Duty" video being played to Sheen voiceovers. "Winning!" All set to drum-and-bass music thumping.
After that, Charlie came down to sit in the front row to watch a short film titled "RPG" (Rocket Propelled Grenade). "It's about redemption," Sheen explained.
But about 5 minutes into it, the boos drowned out the film too.
So Sheen came out, played catch with a former baseball player, and apologized. "OK, so RPG is a bomb. Whatever! Tonight is an experiment."
And after a few more skits and bits, the crowd really began to turn on Sheen, shouting insults amid the steady chorus of boos.
Sheen finally snapped, "Park your voices for one second and pay attention to the man you paid to see. Tell the guy next to you to stop booing because he's ruining it for the rest of ya."
Sheen, clearly flustered, went off script and told the crowd he was "calling an audible" and changed course. But the crowd's reception didn't improve as a rapper performed before introducing a video by Snoop Dogg of Sheen's new song, "Winning." But by then Sheen had even lost most of his diehard fans. And when it ended at 10:10 pm, the house lights came up without explanation or announcement and the show was over.
"I'm not impressed. I was expecting more because of all the hype," concert-goer Tricia Price told E! News after the show. "Big train wreck."
"I felt bad for him," said her husband Don Price. "It was so bad I wanted to run up there and rescue him."
The sold-out show was the first of 22 he is scheduled to perform across the U.S. and Canada over the next month. Former Korn guitarist Rob Patterson provided musical interludes on guitar.
The 4,700-seat theatre was officially sold out, with hundreds of fans paying up to $575 for a backstage meet-and-greet package. Tickets ranged from $35 in the balcony to about $80 for premium seats. Sheen had announced on his website that he would be donating $1 from every ticket to sold to the Red Cross Japanese Earthquake Relief Fund. So at least the show did someone some good.
The warlock now heads to Chicago for a Sunday night show, with the tour scheduled to continue until May 3 in Seattle.
Postscript
More than 15 minutes after the show inexplicably ended (ushers were literally vacuuming carpets), Charlie came back out on stage!
He greeted the approximately 500 remaining fans and took pics for two minutes. "Thank you all!" he said and then abruptly walked off. He seemed subdued and bummed out as security scrambled to get him off.
