I watched a million coming-out videos, and that was kind of how I accepted it myself.
I watched pretty much every coming out video on YouTube that has ever been posted; I watched it in between 14 and a half and 15. Those coming out videos, and those people on YouTube, those brave, brave, brave people on YouTube, without them, I don't know where I'd be.
You know that that thing is going to be as crisp and as clean, as many times as you want to watch it. So, I knew that the film was going to be watched multiple times, a lot like with music videos. Music videos aren't designed to be watched once. They're designed to be watched hundreds of times. On a certain level, the film was dream logic-ed, like a music video
The number one question I'm asked as a YouTuber every day is, 'How can I get my videos out there; how can I make my videos go viral?'
I watched a lot of Alessandro Nesta videos, as he had similar characteristics, studied carefully and applied myself.
To be perfectly honest, I have not watched 'Discovery,' I was ignorant of the fact that it was even coming out. I thought it was another movie coming out.
Eighty-two million households is what Netflix put out watched 'Bridgerton.' And I cannot hold 82 million in my head, because that doesn't fit. It's too big.
I need to keep reminding myself that I don't need a million people to watch my videos, all I need is one. If one person reaches out to me and says, 'This is great, I love it, let's be friends,' I am just as content.
If you want to put out a million CDs and sell them and get them played on the radio, and even videos, or whatever, if that still exists, that kind of muscle can only come from a label like Columbia.
My whole world changed when Michael Jackson brought out the Bad album when I was about eight or nine. He took over my whole life and from then on I wanted to be Michael Jackson. I watched his videos for hours and learned how to dance like him. I would push back the chairs in the room and learn his dance moves. I even taught myself to moonwalk.
I put out my first song, 'The Other,' in 2015 just on Soundcloud. It was always my most popular song but never really went far in a mainstream way. Then, a couple years after it came out, I watched it go from 8 million to, like, 100 million.
I watched 'Billy Madison' maybe 80 times. It's my favourite movie. Watched it, like, a million times. My brother and sister watched it with me all the time.
If you had told me when I was starting out that I would be coming down to Nashville, kind of weaving in and out of the country scene, I never would've thought that in a million years.
There were a lot of times people would do my makeup, and it would be awful, and I would be orange. Nothing matched. So then you learn how to do your own makeup. I watched a lot of YouTube videos when I was little and taught myself.
I watched Gretzky, I watched Lemieux. Maybe it's the time when you're playing, but for a kid coming into the league, you play the Boston Bruins and you just watched Bobby Orr.
I'm trying to un-polish, like 'reset' myself. I'm trying to take myself back to when I first came in. That's what the fans miss and that's how they accepted me, so I kind of want to go back and give them that.
The million, million, million ... to one chance happens once in a million, million, million ... times no matter how surprised we may be that it results in us.
