Have you ever broken anything and said, 'Nope! Wasn't me'?
A lamp my grandpa made. I was playing basketball in the house with my twin sister, Angel, and I hit the ball real hard against a wall. It bounced off. (Pretends to be the ball) Bam! Hit the floor. Ba-doing! Hit the ceiling. Pee-ow! And smashed the lamp. Ker-pow!
What did your mum say when she finally found out ?
She never did find out. (Sniggering madly) I told her it was our two big dogs that did it.
Do you ever hide food in your bedroom and have midnight feasts?
Uh huh. But don't tell my Mum will you. I smuggle cookies and Snickers bars in my trousers and then hide them amongst my clothes 'til bedtime.
Do you ever pretend you've forgotten your homework because you haven't done it?
Yeah. I don't go to school right now 'cos I'm travelling and singing so much, but I used to do that all the time. My teacher was nice and she used to let me get away with it.
Does Nick ever get sweets and pretend he's scoffed the lot when in fact he's hidden loads so you can't get at 'em?
Yeah, all the time! It's really mean of him. I usually find them in the end and eat them all which is great.
Did you have any imaginary friends when you were little?
No, but when I was very young I fell in the water and died. I saw this little friend saying goodbye to me and then my Dad brought me back to life. He saved me from drowning.
Do you ever fib about how fast you can run?
No. Well, I think I can run about five miles per hour and that's not very fast, is it? But on my motorcycle I go over 65 miles per. (Hmm...) That's really fast and great fun.
When you play basketball do you ever pretend you've scored 47 baskets when you've only scored two?
(Giggles cheekily) Sometimes, especially when I'm playing against my brother, but I have to 'cause Nick cheats all the time. He's taller than me so he slam dunks the balls. That's against the rules.
What's the biggest fib you've ever told?
I told one magazine I'd caught a 9ft shark with my bare hands but I hadn't really. It was only a 9 inch fish. Tee hee!
Ur, I think that was us actually!
(Sniggering behind his hands) Ooops!
