Abs cries when he's stressed out and when he misses his
girlfriend.
"Yesterday, I was really stressed out. I decided to go for a walk and I
ended up sitting on a park bench. I was about 10 minutes away from
home and there was nobody around, so I sat there and had a cry, but as
soon as I started crying it started raining and I was like, 'Noooooo! It can't get any worse!' By the
time I'd walked home I was soaked, drenched, and really depressed. It's just it all gets on top of
me sometimes, but I feel better now. I sound like a manic depressive, don't I?! 'When was the last
time you cried?' 'Last night!'"
He cried when he watched Titanic.
He used to think he was Michael Jackson and dressed
up as him.
He changes his underwear everyday.
He calls his hair "Andy and Steve" because his hair
is cropped and slicked forward, and people called
Andy often have cropped hair and Steves often have
slicked hair.
The first thing he looks at when he sees a girl is
her face.
Abs shaves his chest because he doesn't want to
be hair like his dad.
"I have done for a while 'cos I don't want to be like my dad -
he's so hairy, it's all over his hands, just everywhere. He
should have been in 'Gorillas in the Mist!'
He started shaving his face when he was 13.
He wants to get a tattoo.
He doesn't like his nickname.
"My friends have always called me Abs. I only ever got called Rich at drama school cos my mum wanted me to use
my posh name. Actually I don't like Abs. I might change my name to Leonardo."
Abs likes natural, down-to-earth girls.
He wears hats because "every day is a bad hair day."
He's the one who answers the door at their house.
He has the worst room in the house, and sleeps in the basement while the other guys sleep upstairs.
He daydreams a lot.
"Every now and then I'll just go into a stare - people will be talking to me, but I won't notice.
The other day I was daydreaming about the Oscars and I was standing right next to Jack
Nicholson!"
If Abs had five minutes to live he would spend it playing Playstation.
Abs used to tell him mum people fancied her.
"She'd fall for it every time. I'd say 'So and so up the
road really likes you, you can tell,' and she'd look all
pleased. But it was never true - I just did it to see what
she'd do. I used to do it to my mates as well. I'd never do
it now - it was stupid!"
When he was seven, he grabbed a girl by
her hair and swung her round and round in
the playground.
In his wallet, he has pictures of the band,
his girlfriend, his cousin Izzy, and his
fave car.
He's half-Turkish and half-Irish.
He once knew a girl who was afraid of
spiders and made her faint.
"For some reason I once got a bit of black fluff in
my hands and threw it at her,
and she fainted because she thought it was a spider! Her mum came down the stairs saying,
'What's going on!' and I said, 'I don't know, I didn't do anything!"
Abs got into stage school by lying that he was a professional dancer.
He's very faithful to his girlfriend.
Abs dislikes smoking and drinking.
He used to have really bad hair.
