This morning Paul Potts was on the show to celebrate his recent win on Britain's Got Talent (the British counterpart to America's Got Talent.)  WATCH VIDEO.  I caught up with him about life in the limelight, what's coming next and his wife Julie-Ann.

Q: What is your reaction to all of this attention?  Have you gotten a lot of fan mail?

Paul: Well, I haven't been home yet, so I don't actually know.

Q: Do you think your wife will be jealous of female attention?

Paul: I believe her words are, "You're welcome to him!"  Which is a joke, of course.  Well, I hope it is anyway.

Q: Who is your biggest fan?

Paul: Recently definitely my wife.  We've been married for four years, been together for six.

Q: So you first debuted your voice dressed up as Pavarotti?

Paul: It was a karaoke night in 1998 and I dressed up as Pavarotti for the bar.

Q: That was the first time people heard your voice?  What was their reaction?

Paul:  Some people from work brought tomatoes, but they didn't end up throwing them.

Q: Do you sing in the shower?

Paul: I've been known to do so...

Q: Is this your first time in the States?

Paul: I've been up north to New York State - I have some friends in Canada.

Q: First time in New York City?  What do you think?

Paul: I've not seen very much of it yet, so I hope to see more. 

Q: When do you get to go home?

Paul:  You know, I don't know!  I start recording the album on Saturday in Abbey Road Studios.
