His debut single, "Colourblind", reached No. 1 in the UK Singles Chart in 2002. His next singles, "Rushes" and "Incredible (What I Meant to Say)", reached the top ten in the UK in 2002 and 2003, respectively.Campbell Danesh performed the role of Billy Flynn in the West End production of Chicago in two runs of the musical. He played the lead role of Sky Masterson in the Olivier Award-winning Guys and Dolls, and the originating role of Rhett Butler in Sir Trevor Nunn's theatrical adaptation of Gone with the Wind. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darius_Campbell_Danesh

Darius (Danesh) Campbell, the Singer Songwriter Musician, actor and  film produce was born 1980 in Glasgow to an Iranian father and a Scottish mother. 

Events over the last few days has meant that what should have been a straightforward Happy Birthday post has meant me putting together an obituary.........

Born in Glasgow on August 19th 1980, Darius was the oldest of three brothers, he attended Bearsden Primary School and the Glasgow Academy, before going on to study English Literature and Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh.

He was just 12 when he first  took to the stage with Scottish Opera in the non-singing role of a Trojan boy in an avant-garde production of The Trojans. Then he toured with the company in Carmen, which included a performance at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.On leaving Glasgow academy, he yearned to train as an actor at Rada, but his parents wanted him to become a doctor or lawyer. He said going to university was a compromise.

It was while still  studying we first heard of Darius in 2001  sporting a ponytail, and radiating self-confidence, he looked a potential winner on the talent show Popstars, the first of its kind, in 2001.

To be fair he seemed a bit pretentious, but he was the only Scot who made it through the auditions, so we had to support him, His dramatic over-the-top, falsetto version of the Britney Spears hit … Baby One More Time, may have showcased his vocal range, but he really should have stuck to more down to earth performances, the judges, Nigel Lythgoe, Nicki Chapman and Paul Adam, felt the same sent him packing halfway through the series. Darius later  admitted that: “I wouldn’t have voted for me.”  Nevertheless, the 20-year-old told “Nasty Nigel” that he would record a platinum-winning album by the time he was 30.

Undaunted by his rejection he went straight into Popstars’ successor, Pop Idol, later that year, allaying any ideas that presentation overshadowed substance. He came third, behind Gareth Gates and the winner, Will Young, but turned down a recording contract offered to him by Simon Cowell, who was making his name as a judge and TV personality after years working as a record company executive.

Cowell had plans for Darius to release a cover version of the Tom Jones hit It’s Not Unusual, but he wanted to record his own material. “I thought if I released It’s Not Unusual I would be selling myself short,” he said. Instead, Darius – as he would be credited on disc – signed to Mercury Records to make his first album, Dive In, with Steve Lillywhite, who launched the career of U2, as executive producer. Darius wrote all the songs and it became a Top 10 hit that quickly fulfilled his vow to go platinum.He also went straight to No 1 that year with his debut single, Colourblind. In its video, Darius is seen being thrown out of a car in the middle of Spain’s Sierra Nevada, dressed in a black suit and holding his guitar, before changing into jeans – signifying that he was leaving his Pop Idol image behind. 

He followed Colourblind with another four Top 10 singles, then carved out a new career in musical theatre. He played the defence lawyer Billy Flynn for two runs in the West End revival of Chicago at the Adelphi theatre in 2005 and 2006. Although there had been some scepticism about this casting, Darius proved an adept stage star and made a brief return to the part in 2011, as well as touring with the show in 2017. Following his first stint in Chicago, he was taken seriously enough to be given the starring role of Sky Masterson in the director Michael Grandage’s Olivier award-winning production of Guys and Dolls .

He went on to make appearances in other productions including play Rhet Butler in Gone with the Wind,  Milt Warden in the world premiere of From Here to Eternity and Nick Arnstein, opposite Sheridan Smith’s Fanny Brice.

He returned to reality television to win the first series of Popstar to Operastar  and even managed to break into feature film-making, as a producer con a half decent crime thriller called  Imperium, starring Harry Potter himself, Daniel Ratcliffe, the drama Tomorrow .and the horror movie House Red.

In 2011, Darius married Canadian actress Natasha Henstridge in a secret ceremony in February 2011.They split two years later and divorced in 2018.

It was announced in a statement from his family on 16 August 2022 that Campbell Danesh was found unresponsive on 11 August 2022 in his apartment in Rochester, Minnesota, and was pronounced dead later that day,[40][1]. His family reported there were no suspicious circumstances or signs of intent surrounding his death.

In the days that followed Darius’ debut single “Colourblind”  has charted at number two on both the UK Official Singles Download and Sales Charts; his debut album is currently at number 24 on the UK Official Albums Downloads Chart.

He became a supporter of cancer charities including Cancer Research UK after both his parents were diagnosed with cancer and recovered. This included The Prince & Princess of Wales Hospice, who  tweeted: "Everyone at Glasgow's Hospice is devastated at the sad news of Darius Campbell Danesh's sudden death. Darius has been a friend to the hospice and a huge support over past years. Our sympathies are with his family."

Tribute came from across a stunned showbiz world including Simon Cowell who said;

 "His passing, for someone so young, is an absolute tragedy and my heart goes out to his family and friends."

Gerard Butler took to Instagram posting a pic of the pair together saying;

 "I am devastated by the sudden passing of my dear friend Darius, a true brother in arms. My thoughts and love go to his wonderful mum and dad Avril and Booth and his two brilliant brothers Aria and Cyrus."

Gerard continued to praise the Darius with his heartfelt words and said that anyone who knew him was "moved by his infectious laugh and barely containable zest for life".

In his own inimitable style Scots comedian Limmy wrote: “ Fucking loved Darius .” and anyone who actually follows Limmy will know this was heartfelt, his usual tweets on celeb deaths are very  blasé and cutting.

The actor Matthew Marsden described the news as "truly heartbreaking". He added: "I first met Darius when he auditioned for the Big Breakfast weather man years ago. He was a terrific human being. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family."
