Beatles legend Ringo Starr has revealed that he gets such bad stage fright, that he often throws up before performances.
The Beatles legend has explained that despite being a star for over fifty years, he still suffers from nerves and is scared about getting on stage.
Speaking to Billboard magazine, the 71-year-old drummer and singer said: ''I have actually puked before I went on as all my nerves come to the fore. It is part of what I am and it happens before every show. There have been times that I just wanted to go back to bed as I just get so nervous.
''Every night I just hope that tonight is the night when I am going to feel like Frank Sinatra.''
Ringo further admitted that he always feels like running away before he is due on stage saying: ''I hope, 'You are just going to stroll on', but I haven't made it yet - I always run.
''That's why I always run on to it. I would love to coolly stroll on stage but I cannot.''
Ringo who was joined in the band by Sir Paul McCartney, and the late John Lennon and George Harrison, also said he is not fazed by the fact some young music fans had never heard of him.
He said: ''There's always going to be some kid somewhere saying, 'Who the hell is that guy?'
''That's just how it is. Nobody knows everybody. We're still selling more records than most people and we're selling them to the kids.''
