The Vamps' James gives bullying advice: 'You should always tell someone'

Guitarist James McVey, of The Vamps fame, hosted an impromptu Twitter Q&A session earlier this afternoon (February 23) and opened up about his diet and exercise regime, and gave his followers solid advice about bullying.

When asked if he finds being so healthy a struggle, the heartthrob confessed that he looks at it as a way of life in order to stay on track because it is hard: "it's a way of life, it's enjoyable... that said, I LOVE CAKE AND ICE CREAM AND CHOCOLATE AND FLAPJACK AND PIZZA AND MILKSHAKE."

He also spoke out about bullying and gave advice on what to do if you or someone you know is being picked on: "It's always best to tell someone. And also remember that these people won't be in your life forever [...] You've got to realise that after school these people will mean NOTHING to you and you've got to stay strong."

Earlier this month, McVey confessed that he was bullied at school: "I was bullied and didn't fit in to any groups at school. It sucks at the time but I am happy now :) just focus on being yourself and getting the best grades... I don't even see anyone from my school anymore."
