Paul Weller has admitted that he was disappointed by the demise of Samuel Preston's band The Ordinary Boys.
The veteran singer, who tipped the band when they were promoting their first album, told The Mirror he was shocked by Preston's change in character following his appearance on Celebrity Big Brother.
"What happened to [The Ordinary Boys], man? I thought [Preston] was a credible character, serious about what he was doing," he said.
"Then he's behaving like a silly popstar, a total about-face."
When asked if he is disappointed by the current music scene, Weller praised Coventry band The Enemy for their politicised approach to songwriting.
He commented: "When I see a band like The Enemy writing really good lyrics, saying something about their life and their generation, they stand out more because others aren't doing it."
