Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has been giving some helpful advice to teenagers in a surprising new role as a rockstar 'agony uncle'.
The 44-year-old rock legend was taking part in the Ask a Grown Man blog spot on Rookiemag.com and responded to several issues that teenagers had emailed into the website.
The advice began with a 16-year-old girl from Vermont who asked for tips to help overcome her nerves when talking to the opposite sex.
York said: "If you have a crush on him, if you're really, really, really, really shy, which is what I was when I was that age - also, I was at a boys' school so it was impossible to meet girls anyway - how about just write him a note?... Or throw him against the wall sometime.

The Radiohead star also went on to share his own insecurities with a girl who admitted to lacking confidence due to a scar on her chest.
Yorke, who had a lazy eye that was completely shut when he was born, explained: "When I was your age, I was convinced that girls would think that (my eye) was really not very nice at all. I worked in this pub and this old woman - she was so funny - she used to come in all the time. And she was the first person who really said to me, 'It's the nicest thing about you.'
"She was p**sed (drunk) all the time, but I went with it. You'd be surprised. You know, everyone is imperfect. No one has a symmetrical face. No one's body is perfect. Don't worry."
The Ask a Grown Man advice series has seen actors Paul Rudd and Jon Hamm film instalments to help teenagers and share some celebrity wisdom.
