" The mere thought of any of Union J swanning onto stage at the X Factor without a top on has us feeling pretty weak around the ovary department. But despite being a complete dreamboat, bandmember George Shelley won&amp;#039;t be going topless any time soon after bullying in his schooldays has left him feeling less than confident about his body.  From the sound of things, George didn&amp;#039;t have the easiest time at school and it&amp;#039;s left him with low self-confidence when it comes to getting shirtless. &amp;quot;I was obese, I&amp;#039;m massively insecure,&amp;quot; George told Heat. &amp;quot;I won&amp;#039;t even take my top off in the pool. &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s programmed into my head that I&amp;#039;m fat because I got bullied at school and I can&amp;#039;t get it out.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;If I got changed for PE and took my top off, people would laugh,&amp;quot; he added. You won&amp;#039;t even catch him or bandmate Jaymi - who also describes himself as insecure about his body - in just their trunks at the beach.  &amp;quot;If we went sunbathing, we&amp;#039;d probably wear wetsuits,&amp;quot; George said. We can&amp;#039;t help thinking this is a massive shame as they are pretty hot stuff, but whatever makes them feel happy is good by us. What do you think? Comments please.
