The 'This Is the Girl' singer, who was bullied as a child for being overweight, admits he is obsessed with chocolate and enjoys watching friends eat it.
Craig said: "I eat chocolate I am very excessive. I have a tendency to buy large quantities of chocolate so I can watch everyone else eat it. I was fat as a kid because I kept on eating. Then my music replaced my eating.
"Now if I eat a whole bowl of sweets I know I have to burn it off. I remember when I younger I thought the guys with the six-packs seemed to be having so much fun."
The star's luxurious penthouse is even "neutrally decorated" to complement the "gigantic bowls" of truffles in each room.
One source said: "All the rooms are neutral colours with accents of say, dark fur matched with black Lindt truffles, red vases teamed with red Lindt truffles. In every room except the personal gym there are gigantic bowls of Lindt or the purple blue of Cadbury's Chocolate Eclairs.
"There are banks of flat-screen TVs on the wall surrounded by pictures inspired by Craig's favourite film, 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory'."
Chocolate isn't the only thing Craig is obsessive about.
He said: "I am also crazy for clean sneakers, I try to keep everything clean."
