But in light of the fact there can only be one winner, the JLS star said that rejection is all part of the path to success, explaining: “Everybody has rejection, and adding: “I would say the more no’s [you get in life], the closer you get to a yes.”

"You could be as good a dancer as Michael Jackson and you’re not always going to be right for certain things.

"So whenever you walk into a room, give the best that you can so that people will remember you for other things that come up."

Marvin also told MTV that he was "a very dedicated student" who was involved in sports, academics and performing arts, saying variety is important to help keep your options open later in life.

Looking back, he described his memories of life as a student as "fantastic", and said his best times were being with his friends, playing football and going on school trips.

The X Factorstar also revealed his first endeavours on the path to music career success definitely weren't glamorous, and that he used to do a newspaper round and clean cars.
