Tinie Tempah Set To Pursue New Career As Actor

Tinie Tempah has revealed that he is set to begin a new career as an actor.

The rapper, who is nominated for four Brit Awards at the ceremony later this month, has spoken about his plans to work with Adulthood director Noel Clarke.

"It’s sounding like the best movie Noel’s done by far. It’s very international and there’s a lot going on. “Work schedule permitting, I’m definitely down for the role. I know my part," Tempah told the Daily Star.

He added: "I always said if I ever got involved in acting I never wanted it to be a cliché role. I really wanted to get into a different character, so fingers crossed it’ll work out. The part was written especially for me, which is cool."

Tinie Tempah is due to appear at Coachella in California in April as well as on Jimmy Kimmel's chat show.
