We sold so many records. We were in stadiums every day, 94,000 people every day. Once you reach that height, I suppose one of the reasons I struggled the most out of it is because you're never really going to reach that height again. And having to deal with that at a young age, I was always going to mess it up somewhere, is what I would say about myself.

At times you fall out of love with it. And also you're not under any impression this isn't going to stop at some point. Like a lifespan for an average pop star, I've outlived most lifespans with that sort of thing, which has been amazing. Really, really cool.

At this stage in my life, like what even is normal anymore? It's like, you know, for the majority of it, My life's really abnormal. To the outside world, it seems that I've got everything I need.

When we were in the band, the best way to secure us because of how big it got was just lock us in our rooms. And of course, what's in the room? Mini bar. So at a certain point, I thought, well, I'm going to have a party for one. And that just seemed to carry on throughout many years of my life.

And I could never watch X Factor because I was always heartbroken because I'd been the guy who made it really far and then got let go, and it ruined me when I was 14.
