William Robert Young (born 20 January 1979) is an English singer and actor. He rose to fame in 2002 after winning the inaugural Pop Idol contest. He has continued to work in music, and as an actor.

In February 2002, Young came to national prominence by winning the ITV television programme contest Pop Idol. Contrary to press claims of being the underdog, after having beaten the widely accepted front-runner Gareth Gates in the final show, it emerged that Young had in fact gained the most votes in six out of the nine rounds of public voting. This was published in the Pop Idol book, which was released shortly after the programme.

In March 2002, Young revealed that he is gay, to pre-empt a tabloid newspaper that was preparing to run a story outing him. He also stated that he had never hidden, and was comfortable with, his sexuality. He also reaffirmed this to the BBC.
