You're better off coming from Lancashire.

The FAME500 Talent Map has shown that Lancashire - closely followed by Merseyside - is the fame capital of the UK, producing more superstars per capita than anywhere else in the country.

Stars such as Oasis brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher as well as Jamiroquai's Jay Kay spent their younger years in Lancashire.

While The Beatles and Frankie Goes To Hollywood hail from Merseyside.

The real UK capital, London - home to stars including David Bowie and Sienna Miller - came in third place.

The map has been produced by 1Click2Fame, who say: "Accessibility to the limelight has always been an obstacle for those in pursuit of celebrity."

To encourage raw talent, 1Click2Fame has installed state of the art mobile audition studios outside Tesco stores across the UK.

The pods let people create and record their own professional performance videos of anything from singing and dancing to comedy.  

Users can then enter their video into a competition to find Britain's brightest stars at 1Click2Fame.com.

Hopefuls will be judged by the public and industry professionals – with rewards for the most talented.

Jonathan Lakin at 1Click2Fame said: “The results of the FAME500 Talent Map prove what has always been suspected: the UK’s talent base is deep, wide ranging and can spring from the most unlikely of places.

"By creating these audition pods with Tesco and taking them to hundreds of cities across the UK, we hope we will be unlocking potential that no other talent search has been able to reach.“The Fame MapThe Fame500 Map

The talent search kicked off in Coventry last week and will now go on a nationwide tour.
