Morrissey was jealous when Johnny Marr had to wear a neck brace.

Ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny was involved in a car crash when he was in the band, and was given the support to wear when he went to hospital.

He revealed: "I have never spent a full night in hospital. I crashed a BMW into a wall when I was in the Smiths, even though I couldn't actually drive at the time. I did my back and neck in pretty badly, but checked out after a few hours. I wore a neck brace - Morrissey was very envious."

The 45-year-old musician leads a healthy lifestyle, revealing he keeps in shape by running.

He explained to Britain's Observer magazine: "I'm pretty healthy. People think that I live a rock 'n' roll lifestyle, but I've either missed doing all that stuff or I've done it and can't remember.

"I got into running in the early 90s. Now, wherever I am in the world, I just put on my hoodie and run for 20 miles."
