David Aldo has said that Rod Stewart is a big fan.

The singer claims the music icon enjoys his music and even once invited him to perform at his Los Angeles home.

Speaking to BANG Showbiz he explained: "Rod Stewart has me sing at his home on occasions too. He digs my style and coming from a music legend like him, is a big compliment for me."

Quickly gaining attention now outside of his native South Africa, he says he frequently comes into contact with famous fans that go and see him live.

"It's nice to be appreciated and respected by successful people in the entertainment industry. I guess it validates me in some way. I'm more excited when I see big stars that have been around for a long time, like Oprah, or Tom Cruise than some of the newer ones.

"I like it when Sylvester Stallone comes to me and chats when he's in my audience. Like most kids the 'Rocky' movies made a big impact on me."

Aldo also recalled one particular moment when he was shocked to be approached by Colin Farrell, who said Elizabeth Taylor loved his music.

"I'm not usually a star struck kind of guy and truly believe that we are all equals on this earth, although Elizabeth Taylor used to come to the Polo Lounge and watch me sing. I thought this was pretty cool, after all she is a huge Hollywood icon.

"Once she was with Colin Farrell and he pulled me aside and said she was a big fan of mine. That made me feel good."

David's debut UK album 'David Aldo' is released in February 2015. For more information visit: http://www.davidaldo.com
