I was already hooked on his videos, I find him hilarious and that sort of humour appeals to my tiny, tiny mind.

But now a mum of a little girl who is a huge fan and also deaf has posted a video of him signing with her. She wasn't allowed on stage so he invited her back stage so he could sing whilst she signed. I'm in bits 😭it's such a lovely video and he just comes across as such a nice lad, If I was his mum I'd be so proud 😭😭😭😭

I love him and his music.

I also loved the pictures of him out clubbing after TRNSMT festival - girls were trying to paw all over him and he wasn't giving a fuck. Had no time for it. He hasn't seemed to let the fame go to his head and realised they were after their 10 minutes.

MovinOnUp is the net worth when he talks about still living at home? If so I love that he squashed those misconceptions about himself.

MovinOnUp · 07/08/2019 10:24

@sailorcherries Yes, That's the one :)

Mrsjayy · 07/08/2019 10:25

Ha yes when he was telling HMRC he had £200 in his bank account and still lived at home wirh his NY wallpaper. His wiki paged has been stripped back and it also says he is from Glasgow Hmm

Annasgirl · 07/08/2019 10:26

Oh my DC and I adore him - he is so, so funny. Did you see the little video with the cut-out of Niall from one direction? So funny. We want him to be our friend.

RubbingHimSourly · 07/08/2019 11:17

This is it.

Made me sob all over again 😭😭😭

I love him!

cocodash · 07/08/2019 11:35

Have you all watched the plunger video?

MouseRatFan · 07/08/2019 11:36

He is hilarious and just a sound guy.

Mrsjayy

I'm glad you liked the tracksuit video. I was pissing myself laughing at it.

"Ladies, do you need somewhere to put your purse?" Grin

ACPC · 07/08/2019 11:57

Love him. He's got that unique Scottish no nonsense sense of humour and his music is not too bad eitherGrin

IgotApositive · 07/08/2019 12:11

He came into Costa, when I was working!
He got the train to a festival he was performing at Grin very down to earth but he looks tired

AgentJohnson · 07/08/2019 12:15

Oh Agent way to to find the negative

Oh the irony.

LagunaBubbles · 07/08/2019 12:18

I love his music to, think he's got a wonderful voice! The video with him singing and the girl who is deaf signing is so good to watch, not many singers would sing like that with any backing etc, he sounded great.

PicaK · 07/08/2019 12:22

I just adore him. And I love his music. I am in awe that someone so young and cheery sings with such passion and soul.

AHintOfStyle · 07/08/2019 12:29

@Mrsjayy

The Glasgow thing pisses me off!
There's not loads to boast about in West Lothian but now we have Lewis Capaldi as well as Susan Boyle!

EveryFlightBeginsWithAFall · 07/08/2019 12:34

I quite like his music

SistersOfPercy · 07/08/2019 12:35

Not a fan of his music, or anything that's not really fast metal tbh, but as a person I bloody love him.
He amuses me on a daily basis and the whole Gallagher feud has been utterly hilarious.

PixieLumos · 07/08/2019 12:43

He seems so lovely - and surprisingly I do like his music. I’m not usually a fan of whiny male singers (think Sam Smith, Will Young, James Arthur etc.) but his songs, although sad are quite good.

Sagradafamiliar · 07/08/2019 12:51

I feel the same way about him as I do James Blunt. No time for their music (although fair play to them, it sells) but funny, funny guys and genuinely nice.

ssd · 07/08/2019 13:03

Where's he from then?

ACPC · 07/08/2019 13:11

West Lothian I think. The Glasgow wiki reference was a mistake that keeps getting used by lazy journos. I thought he was from Glasgow too until I heard him speak.

OtraCosaMariposa · 07/08/2019 13:14

he's the perfect antidote to the polished, botox-ed, manufactured, shiny pop stars.

Friend of DD's met him at Glasgow airport last month and said he couldn't have been nicer.

ACPC · 07/08/2019 13:15

I've just googled and every where lists Glasgow. Maybe I'm making a fool of myself 😂

amusedbush · 07/08/2019 13:21

I thought he was from Glasgow too until I heard him speak.

He has a pretty Glaswegian accent though. I know it gets a bit blurred around Bathgate but he sounds very west coast to me.
