Put it this way: singing is not my day job.

I'm more like a spoon symbol. I think women just want to spoon me.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be serious, like Daniel Day-Lewis. No one really dreams of being a comic actor, do they? Now I realise how stupid that is - and it's because comic acting isn't taken seriously enough. It's a discipline. You know instantly - either you're funny and getting the laughs, or you're not.

I grew up in a house of forthright women.

A guy who's actually self destructive is quite fun to play.

When I was about 13 I realised girls weren't going to kiss me because I was a gigantic, weird looking creature from the depths. I was like 6 ft. aged 11.

I never thought I'd refer to myself as a hot mess.
