Dizzee: 'Prince Harry is a bit like me'

Dizzee Rascal has revealed that he liked Prince Harry when he met him.

The rapper encountered the royal at the O2 Wireless festival earlier this year.

According to MSN, when the 24-year-old was asked about the identity of his favourite famous person, he replied: "It has to be Prince Harry. Tom Hanks is a real down-to-earth guy and we chatted about Snoop Dogg, because his son is a fan. But Prince Harry - that is proper royalty, man!"

He continued: "We just had a bit of banter and that. It was mad. He was... a bit like me, really."

Rascal went on to say that the Prince had a "street handshake".
