So
little fella, what job would you like when you're Nick's age?
I'll still be a singer
but I'll be performing with Nick in front of 200,000 fans back home in
the States. I'll play my red and white guitar like this, 'Diddlediddledeeee!'
(Leaps off his seat and plays his imaginary guitar in true rock god stylee.)
The stage will be awesome and futuristic. We'll pop up through the floor
like Nick did on his last tour.
Will
the other BSBs join you?
Brian will play his
guitar and Kevin can be the bodyguard.
Because
he's big and scary?
(Shrinking back in
the chair and nodding his head furiously) Uh huh!
Would
you like to be the first pop star to perform on Mars?
Yeah! I'd float around
in the air like this, 'Wooooah!' (Leaps off his seat and bounds around
the room in slow motion.) I'd hate to get stuck there though. My oxygen
would run out and I'd die!
When
you're a fully-grown 18-year-old, would you like to be tall like Kev or
small and cuddly like Howie?
I wanna be extra tall
like Michael Jordan and I wanna have huuuuge muscles.
Michael
Jordan can jump really high...
Yeah, but I'll train
myself to jump over 5 feet into the air (nearly as tall as Lee 911) and
with special springy sneakers I'll jump over ten feet (nearly as tall as
Kevin BSB on long stilts)!
Will
you have a mad haircut and crazy clothes?
I'll have red and
white hair to match my guitar and I'll wear a silver space suit. Did you
know aliens are gonna land in the year 2000? (Erm, no...) They've probably
set off in their space ships already.
What
will you do if they land in your back garden?
I'll kill them first
and then steal their spaceship. Did you know if you kill an alien its brain
will pop out and splatter on your face? (Hmm...)
Will
you change your name when you're 18?
No! I like my name
but the other week I met this German kid who's had his hair dyed red and
cut like mine and changed his name from Eric to Aaron. Weird. He looks
exactly like me except his eyes are blue.
What
do you think you'll be allowed to do when you're 18 that you can't do now?
Go to bars and drive
a car. Wow! I'm gonna buy a Lamborghini and a jeep like Kevin's. I'll be
a careful driver like Nick.
Will
you get a tattoo done?
Maybe just a small
'A' on the sole of my right foot. (Thinks for a minute before freaking
out) Argh! That's gonna hurt!
You've
got boats and jet skis moored on the lake outside your house. Will your
dad let you take them out on your own when you're 18?
I do that anyway.
I'm an expert. No other kid in Tampa knows how to ride jet skis like I
do. I can do 360 degrees turn and my dad can ride his jet ski underwater.
He gets water up his nose everytime. I hate it when that happens but I
love sneezing. At least you don't have to pick your nose then. (As he pauses
for a breath there's time to get another question in!)
What's
the worst thing about being small?
The fact that I can't
drive yet. I've got my own quad bike though. It's ten times easier than
my motorbike but it's very dangerous. It tipped over on me the other day
and I was squashed underneath it for 15 minutes. My sister Leslie had to
rescue me.
What
kind of house will you live in when you're grown up?
An apartment in London.
Actually I'll own this apartment (looking round the posh hotel suite we're
currently lounging in) and I'd have sweets flowing out of the taps instead
of water. Imagine bathing in sweets!
Will
you still keep iguanas, or 'dinosaurs' as you call them?
Yep, Babyface and
Mariah Carey. My dad says he's gonna give them to me when I'm 18.
And
if you have time in your hectic schedule will you try your hand at another
career?
Yeah! (Aaron's eyes
nearly pop out his head) I'll open up a sweet shop!
But
you'd eat all the stock!
No, I'd sell it and
then buy even better sweets just for me!
Maybe
you'll invent something!
I wanna invent a new
drink called Sludge. It'd be mixed with (leans across and whispers) I can't
really tell you the ingredients, it's a secret. (Proceeds to tell us the
ingredients.) It'd be made of every soda possible and mixed with lots of
sludgy ice.
Like
Sluch Puppies?
No. It'll be extra
slurpy and sludgy! And it'll be my favourite colour - green!
And
finally, will you have zillions of girlfriends hanging off your arm?
(With a 'don't be
so ridiculous' face.) Nah. I'll be way too busy like Nick is. I'll probably
wait a while, then get married when I'm 30.
Hmm. Watch this space...
