The Vamps answer fans' questions in exclusive interview with Pressparty

Yesterday (September 12), Pressparty sat down with boyband The Vamps for an exclusive interview and they opened up about touring with Selena Gomez, their bond with their fans, and who they all have crushes on at the moment.

We also brought along a stack of questions sent in via Twitter from the heartthrobs' devoted followers and they were more than happy to answer them. The Vamps discussed their favourite foods, bathtime behaviour, and career aspirations outside of the band.

We have some fan questions for you!

@April_Harris14 - if you could swap bodies with each other for a day, which member would you be and what would you do?

Tristan: I’d probably be James and I’d get naked and run around.

Brad: I’d be Con ‘cause he’s got really stretchy skin (Connor starts pulling the skin on his neck out alarmingly far) I’d just sit and stretch his skin all day!

@Molly_Hepburn25 - what are you guys really good at cooking?

(All in unison) Breakfast!

Brad: Just throw everything in and mash it up – it makes like a scrambled bean… I just got a juicer so you can just lob loads of fruit in, it’s amazing.

@OhDearTheVamps - what were your best and worst school subjects?

James: History was my favourite and I hated maths, which I did at GCSE.

Brad: I really liked geography at school, I didn’t like… history.

Connor: Music and P.E. were my favourite, but I hated biology. Actually, chemistry I hated more than maths. Chemistry.

Tristan: P.E. and art were my favourite ones and I hated maths and English.

@NiallsUnicorn – if you weren’t in the band, what would you have been doing instead?

Tristan: I’d try to be a full time producer.

Brad: Literally, before we had to leave school, I applied for a job at BHS! So, I’d probably be working at BHS! I was at sixth form, it wasn’t just BHS! Yeah, I’ve always wanted to work at BHS!

James: I’d have gone to uni probably, I would have gone to university. History or English literature, or maybe both… somehow.

Connor: I’d be doing music tech.

@EmmaWithBass – if you could be stuck in an elevator with anyone, dead or alive, who would it be?

Tristan: Probably Tom DeLonge from Blink 182… I hope he’s still alive!

Brad: I’d go for someone dead, maybe like Kurt Cobain!

James: Oh god, John Lennon! I’d do that more than Taylor Swift I think!

Connor: I’d just have All Time Low in the lift I think.

 

 

 

@AvonsTattoo – what’s the weirdest thing you take on tour with you?

Tristan: I take an animal puppet. Animal puppet from The Muppets!

Brad: Me… incense sticks! They’re a recent addition – tour supply. Jump in the bath with some incense on!

James: I don’t take anything weird really… protein powder? Tablets, a lot of tablets!

Connor: It’s not happened yet, but my bearded dragon… I want to eventually have on the bus! Or a Komodo dragon (all laugh).

@Sally_Lofhouse – who takes the longest to get ready before you go on stage?

Brad: Pre-stage… I’d warm up for like half an hour – my voice.

Tristan: As far as warming up goes… you’re the only one that does warm up! I like getting on my hands and knees and doing the crab… stretching my back.

James: Play 'World of Warcraft' whenever we can so that’s a warm up.

Are you big fans of video games, then?

James: Not really, but I used to be really fat before the band.. like back in the day and used to play a lot of computer games! So now we have… we play.

Brad: I play 'FIFA', I don’t really play anything else. I used to have that (the headset) you get so into it, you can have such good arguments on it! We should do that, oh my god it’s so funny [...] This kid had like a night vision helmet so you could turn the light switch off and play 'Call of Duty' with these night vision things!

Sick. Disgusting. You could run around town with it or rob banks!
