Singer Daniel Bedingfield has revealed that he "loves" competing with his sister Natasha in the music charts.

Since he took time off after a car crash in New Zealand nine months ago, his younger sibling has overtaken him in record sales, with a number one single and album.

Daniel, about to release a comeback single, told Radio 1 today: "She's had a number one album and I haven't, she's massive in Germany and I'm not, so I'll be knows as Natasha Bedingfield's little brother - it's quite interesting!

"I enjoy competition, I always have - I didn't really care whether I lost or won so long as it was competitive. She's not like that, but I am, so I enjoy this little rivalry!"
