During the competition, Rik was told by Simon Cowell that he was "too much of a twat to be an idol". He made it into the final ten of the show but was forced to pull out due to a throat infection and was replaced by Darius Danesh. Following the show, Rik signed a one-album contract with EMI worth £400,000, with his first single being a cover of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You".
Although Rik initially won public admiration on Pop Idol, this quickly evaporated[citation needed]. He has since taken part in Celebrity Fit Club and Back To Reality.
After his contract with EMI finished, Rik formed his own band to take his music out on the road. Rik then signed an album deal with Red Admiral Records.
In October 2004 it was reported in the media that the Devon concert of Rik and his band's UK tour was cancelled because only two tickets were sold.
Rik's obesity has made him a prime target for critics, including the likes of Simon Cowell, and Jade Goody, who repeatedly dissed Rik on Back to Reality. His weight has also led to him being the butt of a lot of "fat" jokes.
His second album Innocence was released in September 2005. The band was re-named Rik Waller's Mighty Soul Band, but has been renamed yet again; the band is now known as Rik Waller's Unfinished Business (as reported on Rik's official website).
On February 28, Waller appeared on Never Mind the Buzzcocks not as a guest but as part of the identity parade for forgotten artists.

You guys are claiming Bill Burr, Jimmy Carr, Dave Chappelle all deliver their jokes like Ricky Gervais, but better?
alfie tipper
@BeyondSideshow no if u read the comment he says it is unmatched, no one said any of these comedians are better but they defiantly match him in one way or another there some of the best comedians so.

I don’t like to consider Gervais as just a comedian. He’s just a comedic genius and it’s not like just hearing joke after joke it’s like just a well done story that’s hilarious. I’m jealous of his creativity and wit but it comes from a genuine place nothing nasty.
LAWRENCE ORNELAS
He's fun to listen to. I didn't see him when he hosted the emmys or whatever it was but I DID love how he was honest about all the attendees and what he thought of people.
