| 2 | Scary is good. Kids like going to a movie and being really scared rather than fake scared. |
| 3 | [Talking about his dressing room demands] Because I'm a spoiled little brat, I absolutely always insist on a table and chair and lighting. This February I'm even going to demand heating. |

| 5 | [Talking about being treated like an adult] That was really important for me, although I think I am a bit more mature than some kids my age because I've spent more time with adults. And I haven't grown my hair over my eyes or anything. |
| 6 | I try and stay a normal kid as much as possible. At the weekend I play soccer with my friends. |
| 7 | I try to stay a normal boy as much as possible. I play soccer on the weekend with my friend.

They just won the [English Football Association] Cup. |
