Simon is cool. You know, it's different if you ever see him around his mom. He acts totally different.
I feel as if I've been able to do so many things I never expected to do.
I never knew that the things I wanted to do would come this fast, but this is the route that God took me, and so I'm excited.
We became somewhat household names really quickly, within a matter of - what? - three, four months. So it's hard to get used to, and it's really sometimes hard to understand.
If you eat good, you feel good. I would encourage every body else to do the same.
So I've never in my whole life really been teased about my weight.
I don't have any concerns about my weight. I've always been healthy. I eat right. I'm just a big dude. I've always been happy with the person I am. So that will never change.
I feel like my unwillingness to look for healthy options now is the reason why I have put my weight back on. … Everybody knows how to diet, everybody has had their shares of ups and downs of yo-yo diets, but the hardest thing is to learn really how to make this a lifestyle that you can sustain for the rest of your life.
