I had some of my friends basically accusing me and some of my other friends of being racist. At the same time, I tried to mediate the situation.

We have two new black members. And it's stirred up debate, which is a positive thing.

I used to get quite upset that I'd make friends with a guy or a girl and then within the space of three years we'd move and go and live somewhere else, and you'd have to say goodbye to that person.

You never know really what anyone thinks about you - that's why all my closest friends are ones I've had since my schooling days when I was 5. And I surround myself with people who I trust and who know me.

I was the class clown so I was used to performing and fooling around in front of my friends.

Don’t allow people to come in and out of your life when it only benefits them.
