Are you as chilled out as you seem?
I’d say I am pretty laid – back, but not too relaxed. I still know what’s going on in the world – I’m not half asleep.
Why do girls love a mystery man?
It’s intriguing to see what’s beneath the exterior. You don’t see my whole personality immediately, there’s still more to come… and tha’s exciting. But I do approach girls. You’ve got to make things happen – they’re not going to come running to you.
What even now you’re in a band?
Er… no comment.
When was the last time you lost your temper?
I’ve curbed my temper a lot. I used to have one when I was younger bu I’ve grown up and chilled out. I’m probably the last person in the group to get angry but when I do, people notice.
Do you ever wear sunglasses idoors?
I have. I try not to do it because if I see someone doing it I think, “Why? It’s not sunny in here, take them off” so I haven’t done it since I’ve seen the light. Excuse the pun.
Who are your idols?
When I was growing up I admired people like Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson. Prince is wicked, but I’ve never dressed like him. I don’t thinki’d look too good in a tight purple suit.
Do you think you’re a super stylish dresser?
Sometimes I feel pretty stylish but our stylist doesn’t always agree.
What do you like to see girls wearing in clubs?
Skimpy clothes. Lots of skirt, mmm. A cheecky peek of a thong poking up over the trousers. And for some reason. I’ve got a soft spot for girls who wear hats. I don’t know why but it definitely works for me.
If you went out with a girl with a terrible dress sense, would you dump her?
I’d try and give her little hints, but it’d be cool as long as she looked normal and presentable. If she was really bad she’s probably get dumped. Although it would depend what she looked like out of her clothes…
Who do you think is worst dressed celebs around?
Apart from Dave? Don’t print that, he’ll kill me. I think Christina Aguilera wears some totally crazy stuff. She looks just like a dragon with her huge yellow hair and those silly ‘dirrty’ pants. Doesn’t she know that 'dirrty' pants can never ever look good on a girl
Justin
What jobs did ya do before the band?
I worked in Topman, in call centres and I worked for royal mail for a while.
Were you a model employee?
No, I walked out of loads of jobs! People wouldn’t give me time off for band stuff so I’d be fired. Have you been fired? (Er, no) you should try it!
What’s the worst job you’ve done?
I worked in a steel factory, it was hot, dirty, far from what I wanted. I hope I don’t have to do it again!
And the most boring?
I spent hours taking the yellow labels off loaves of bread. I kept thinking “£11.50 an hour” that felt like loads!
How did ya spend your wages?
I partied with the students! New university girls every year, way – hey!
Any acting?
No! I’m not an actor! With the next vid, it’s like “Oh my god. What is that?”
Why’d you wanna be a popstar?
Me and Sparx went to a youth club, to jam and sing. Afterwards we’d go to the park ‘til 11pm. We were rebels!
How did you get girls attention?
We’d pretend we didn’t know the girl was there and sing! Then she’d chat!
What did your careers teacher advise?
Pray! I did a business course at college. I liked school, I charmed the teachers! When I left, I went clubbing!
Have you changed much since then?
I was ugly and boring. But I wasn’t sad, I’d good mates and good trainers
