- YOU HAVE A LOT OF DEDICATED FANS AND A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT OF FAN SITES. DO YOU ENJOY BEING A TEEN HEARTTHROB?
- Well, I’d never describe myself as a teen heartthrob, and I’ve always been very careful not to describe myself as a role model because, like anyone in the world, I am human, and I fuck up and I make mistakes. I’d never want anyone to make the same mistakes that I’ve made. I’d never sit here and pretend to be a figure of morality because I’m absolutely not. What I do see myself as is a mascot for kids who feel weird or out of place. When I was growing up I never really had someone I could look up to who spoke honestly. There’s so much fucking bullshit in the world. People are trying to project this wholesome and squeaky-clean image, and it’s fucking nonsense. I’d rather be honest. Maybe I’m not going to get any Disney movies, but I’d rather be that way.
- HONESTY IS RARE THESE DAYS.
- It’s mostly bollocks, but I do feel incredibly blessed and honoured. I’m in an amazing position at 25 years old. I didn’t go to university; I came out of school when I’d just turned 18, and the industry is notoriously difficult and full of arseholes, but I’m doing what I love. I find it kind of ridiculous that someone wants to pay me to dress up and act because I’d do that for no money
