The singer-songwriter has topped charts on both sides of the Atlantic since he hit the music scene last year. His music has also been ridiculed - and the star himself voted the fourth most annoying thing in Britain. But he beat the likes of the Pussycat Dolls, KT Tunstall and Gnarls Barkley to World’s Best New Artist.

Seven years ago James was a soldier in Kosovo, he remembered being struck by the work of doctors volunteering to help the wounded.

“I was there for six months and to continually see them working in the middle of nowhere with very little in the form of security, very little in the form of decent living conditions and yet still selflessly, tirelessly helping other people, I was touched every single day,”the British singer told The Associated Press.

Now that he’s a multi-platinum singer, the 32-year-old Blunt is finding a way to help the cause.

On Thursday in Los Angeles, Blunt, perhaps best known for the ballad”You’re Beautiful,”will perform a special benefit concert for Doctors Without Borders, which provides aid to disaster victims and other communities with little access to health care.

Take a glance at the pop charts and what you’ll find is a lot of booty songs and very few people wearing their hearts on their sleeves.

James Blunt dared to do it, and has gotten mostly the best and just a little of the worst of it.

On the flip side, it’s a weepy ballad about seeing his ex-girlfriend on a subway train with another man, and it’s been played to death, so there’s the inevitable backlash. In fact, this year Blunt, who appears at Playhouse Square in Cleveland Oct. 18 and the Fox Theater in Detroit Oct. 19, placed fourth in a British survey of the most annoying things in the U.K.

“I was really [angry] about that,” Blunt says in a recent phone interview from Spain. “I’ve never come in fourth in anything. And I’m really upset. Who beat me?”
