Source: CBBC's X-change
At the start of the opening titles, they show a clip of Nick shaking
hands with one of the presenters (P). They introduce him and say that
he will be on later answering the fans questions.
The presenter walks on and does like a 'secret handshake' type thing
with Nick and says hello. Nick is wearing a red shirt with 'dirty'
looking jeans, and he has made himself quite comfy on the couch with
his feet up!
P: Hiya Nick! Good to have you here. First of all how's things here?
N: Everything's great man! I'm having a blast! I've been doing alot of
interviews ands tuff, and tv shows, but em...
P: And to top it off another one this afternoon!
N: Well..yeah!
P:Can't beat it! Now you've got your solo career on the go at the
minute, how's that going?
N: It's going great! I mean, the single's out right now, and its on
the radio, and uh...the album comes out on Oct 28th, and uh...I can't
wait fir it to come out, I'm so excited! (grins)
P: What sort of style of music is it, I mean are you keeping it the
same sort of thing>
N: It's kinda like...I've always been big into...kinda like rock music
a little bit, so I add a little bit of rock flavour to the old stuff
that I've done, and even a little new flavour. I thought I was good to
grow a little bit y'know?
P: Too right it is" Exactly. We've got loads of questions for
you, literally hundreds of questions have come in, and we've been
advertising it on the website, that you'd been coming here and first
off there's a question here from Lizzy in Croydon, and she'd like to
know if you were the first person on the moon, what sort of song would
you open your show with?
N: Well...since Lance Bass isn't going to the moon (laughs) I'm gonna
go there now! (laughs) No I'm playin'! (laughs) Which one would I go
to the moon and perform? um...probably 'Man on the Moon' by REM.
P: Aaah...good answer! OK, got another question here from Joanne, and
as it happens, Joanne is here to ask the question personally, so
Joanne, take it away!
Joanne: I was wondering how did you get into the music industry?
P: Joanne wants to know that.
N: How'd I get into the music industry? um..welll I'd been doing
singing and acting since I was like 8 years old...um...did alot of
stuff in school, and things like that, like plays, and then I met the
BSB through acting, y'know, just acting and things like that, and
y'know they kinda took off from there, and I was in the business for a
little while, didn't have a record contract until when I was with the
boys till I was like 16, or anything like that so I mean it takes a
long time in the business to work your way through, and its alot of
work y'know?
P: Fantastic, well we've got another question here from Kelly in
Wolvehampstow, believe it or not Kelly actually emailed us 94
questions!
N: 94!
P: yeah...ok, so I've got them all here, so if you would like to pick
a question between 1 and 94, and I'll ask you that question.
N: uh...I don't know....uh...Number 10!
P: Ok, number 10, here it is - if you could pick an actor , any actor
in the world to play you in a movie about your life, who would you
pick?
N: Oh man, I'd probably pick like, I don't know, someone who's kinda
blonde in a way, kinda big....(Otis another presenter shouts out in
the background that he would do it!) Yeah! There you go! (Nick points
to him) That's my man right there!
P: Otis is up for it!
N: Yeah!
P: Otis is your man for it!
N: Yeah, there's my man! (laughs)
P: We've got another question here from Daniel and this is his
question -
Daniel: Is the BSB still together of have they split up?
N: I get it asked alot, because I'm doing the solo career now, but I'm
just taking some time and doing this, but I wanna get back in the
studio with the guys like sometime next year, maybe later next year,
or something, and start to record a new album, and everything, but
right now y'know I've been with the boys since I was12, and y'know,
I'm 22 now, and its been 10 years goin' on, so I really wanted to try
something new in my life, and just see something new, y'know, just
experience something new...cos...
P: Keep it all fresh.
N: Yeah....cos I mean...I was so young in doing it all, so I just
wanted to try it y'know, see what was up!
P: Nice one. OK - another question here from Kelly in Wolvehamstow,
another number apart from number 10 from 1 to 94?
N: Uh...53
P: OK - 53! Now you play the drums and the guitar, which one do you
prefer playing and why?
N: Uh...I prefer playing the drums at the moment...just because I'm
better (laughs) but I uh...just started picking up the guitar, I
played drums since I was 12 - yeah everything started when I was 12!
[um, careful what you say Nick!]...no but I....(Nick laughs as he
realises what he said - the presenter laughs as well! - everyone in
the rest of the studio laughs as well! - he carries on -
grinning)..but y'know...basically..um... I just started playing that
now because I can bring that everywhere with me, y'know, I can't bring
a drum-set everywhere. I used to play the drums on the tour though,
when we would tour and stuff, I'd sing and play at the same time,
Backstreet songs, so ...y'know...
P: Cool, thats a good answer. OK, so now we've got another question
here from Naomi, so Naomi, give us your question.
Naomi: Who'd you prefer put of Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears?
P: Mmmm (Nick grins) I guess you know them both?
N: (laughing) You know, the funniest thing it, I've never met Britney
Spears, I mean I might have met her briefly, like, came across her,
and I've met Christina, she's really cool!
P: What were your first impressions about Britney?
N: um..well, I don't know her (shrugs), so I can't really pre-judge at
all so...um..but knowing Christina and everything, Christina's really
cool, she was really nice - and she's a hot mama too!! (People in the
background -Oooh yeah!)
P: Fair enough! - you heard it here! OK - I've got another question,
so very quickly I've got Stuart with his question.
Stuart: Who would you like to exchange saliva with?!
N: (lookin' shocked!) What he say?!
P: That's what he said!
N: What he say?!
P: Who would you most like to exchange saliva with?! (chuckling)
N: (lookin' shocked still!) Eeurgh!!
P: Talking of Britney and Christina earlier!?....
N: (laughs) Both of them - no only joking!
P: So anyone in the world who would you like to? You've got to answer
Stuart's question!
N: Dear God!
P: Come on!
N: I have to answer this!?
P: Oh yeah! (everyone in the background shout out - Yeah!)
N: Is this a kids programme?!
P: Does he have to answer the question?! (everyone in the background
shout - Yeah!)
N: I don't know!! - Sandra Bullock! ( the camera flicks to one of the
female presenters pointing to herself and smiling!) Whoever's
closest!! (realises again what he said!) Not you though! (he gets up
as though to leave, the presenter laughs, but Nick sits down again
chuckling!)
P: Be careful with your answers!
N: (laughs)
P: One last good question from Latoya in London, who's your biggest
musical influence?
N: Uh.. my biggest musical influence..uh ok probably..better be really
good at this! - I have too many influences, its not just one, its like
a mixture of everything, that's kinda what makes me, me, y'know?
P: Mmm-hmm.
N:I like people like David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, Tom Petty, Phil
Collins, I could go on forever, they're like the old people, new ones
like, Nirvana, Linkin Park, I like all sorts of music, y'know?
P: Ok, lets see what they've done to your mind, Nick its been a
pleasure. (shakes his hand) Thanks for that, and if you'd like to give
us a quick link into your new song...
N: OK - this is....(loses which camera he's suppose to use!) Oh -
there you are! This is 'Help Me - I hope you enjoy it! (smiles)
