The (Everything I Do) I Do It For You singer said: ‘On the road is where I have been for the last 45 years, because the life of a musician is made up of roads, travel, waiting in hotels, hours back stage.

The Pirelli Calendar has become such a big deal, it is now affectionately nicknamed The Cal in showbiz circles.
