Gary Barlow has admitted that he is terrified about launching his new label Future Records.

The Take That star admitted that he was more nervous about launching his first artist, 21-year-old classical singer Camilla Kerslake, than when he performs live at Wembley.

"I don't think I have ever been as nervous about anything. Before Camilla performed I was a wreck," he told the Daily Star.

"Backstage I was pacing up and down like a proud dad. This is honestly more nerve-racking than going on at Wembley."

Barlow, who has penned new Alesha Dixon song 'To Love Again', claimed that he is restricted in how much time he can spend developing his label.

"I'm not going to sign any more artists at the moment because it takes up a lot of time," he said.

"An album every two years with Take That already consumes so much time.

"Camilla sent me a demo CD every day for six weeks. Eventually I had a listen and saw real potential."

He added: "I wish I'd never told that tale - now other acts are going to try the same trick. I may have to move studios."
