I've got some of your questions from Twitter and I'm going to answer them for you. "Do you remember the first YouTuber you watched?" I used to watch two YouTubers all the time so the first one was panacea 81 which was Lauren Luke and the second one was oh my goodness so it was Leesha who is x sparkage I used to watch her all the time To be honest she is kind of who inspired me to take the plunge and do YouTube because I loved her videos so much. "Have you ever had a disastrous interview?" I have done a fair amount of interviews over the past couple of years and there was one which I feel like I mentioned briefly somewhere but the woman came to my house and she was just asking me all these questions that had absolutely nothing to do with what she was there for since then I've learnt never to do interviews in your own home if any of you out there are watching and someone wants to interview you go "yeah sure let's go somewhere" don't let them come into your house she was really nosy she insisted on seeing inside my wardrobe and I was like "no it's not really that tidy" and she asked me how I felt about the fact that Miley Cyrus was really 'scantily clad' and how I thought it was appropriate that she was a role model for young girls and I was like this has nothing to do with the interview she then proceeded to say "well when did you lose your virginity?" "I mean how old were you then?" and I was just like [duck noise] Obviously I did not answer that question but it was really awkward and I have had a fair amount of very awkward interviews where the interviewer just persists on trying to push you for the best headline they can get however some are actually really lovely it's a right mixed bag "What makes someone a good friend?" I love this question because I have so many friends, who are all very very special to me so I think the qualities that are most important to me are someone who is caring, caring is like the biggest thing trustworthy, a bit weird I'm a bit weird and I feel like if there's someone who I can truly be myself with because they're caring they're trustworthy and they can kind of mess around with me as well that's like the best thing ever I think those are my top 3 caring, trustworthy and a bit weird or able to get on my level of weird "What is the craziest fan experience that you've ever had?" Year 2 of the Radio 1 Teen Awards me and Alfie were leaving out the back and I think there was a woman who said "your car is just out there" and we were like "okay" and she sort of waved us off "bye see you later" she essentially released us into a mob of viewers I couldn't see the car, I was like "okay right" The doors close behind us "yeah see you later you're on your own now thanks for coming" there was screaming, running, shouting, I got pushed up against - I didn't even see the car But I got pushed up against the car and I really hurt my back And there was people pressed up against me, against the car, and I could hear them shouting Like because they were stuck too - because people were pushing from behind them And they were going "Stop it give them space" and everyone was screaming But they couldn't move because the people behind them were pushing them And I was just like "Alfie??" Like I'd lost Alfie And I was like "Oh I'm really sorry guys - I'm really so-" I'm being too polite at this point, I should have literally just gone "GET AWAY" My back was being pressed against a corner of the car I think it was the boot At this point there's still no-one like helping us So then I think I went like *that* in the end Because I couldn't - like - cope It was all a lot, and it all happened VERY quickly and then the next thing I know, I was actually in the back of the taxi But I think that was probably the craziest fan experience Because it all happened so quickly But also in slow motion it was the weirdest thing And I just remember that it actually hurt my back Besides that I think when Alfie had his book signing in Waterstones and there was like 8,000 people outside And I just burst into tears I actually think I have a vlog of that Is it in my vlog or Alfie's vlog? I don't remember But I was just very overwhelmed It's a crazy crazy situation to be in And I was just like - oh my god Like people banging on - I mean overwhelmed in like a happy way because I was safe in the car But it was just crazy "How is finalising book three going on?" "Are you enjoying it?" I had so much fun on Saturday - - or was it Sunday? I can't remember - I handed in the first draft manuscript So it's all happening now I still need to do my dedications and acknowledgements but besides that the bulk is done and I'm so happy It was so emotional finishing the last line of the book - in fact I almost cried - I just really hope - come November - you guys love... ... where I've taken it. That's all I'm gonna say "Can you remember the first time you got your period?" Yes I can. I was 14 years old I had a French lesson It was tutor time - which is kind of when they take the register make sure you're still there I think it's about twenty minutes before your last lesson And I was sat on this - we had like high stool/chairs and I remember thinking don't remember having a sweaty bum today you know that horrible black tight trousers that girls used to wear in secondary school, I don't know if you still wear them now, but we used to wear them, the ones that when you walked in a puddle they like flared out so big and I just remember thinking 'its not a particularly stuffy day so i dont know why i feel a bit sweaty' is that too much information? is that tmi? i dont know so the chairs were grey, like a light grey and i remember sitting on a corner for a bit i dont know why i think they were just about high enough that you could have your feet on the ground so people would just perch on the corners of them and then i moved away and i looked at the stool and i was like that looks a bit like a tiny patch of blood but i dont think it is maybe that was there before or maybe someone has drawn on it 'cause my tutor was a DT teacher so there was a lot of pencils, pens and it was the tiniest little mark and I was like - nah i don't think it was and then we went to French and I remember walking to French and saying to my friend..ist that..have I sat in something? is that something on my trousers and she looked, but we had dark navy trousers which I feel like is the worst colour if you've come on your period 'cause how would you ever know and she sort of did the light walk behind me and had a little look and I still actually do that now as a 26 year old sometimes if I have a little panic I'm like I'm gonna walk ahead and you're gonna walk behind me especially if you're wearing a white dress you get paranoid - you get period paranoia and she was kinda like no, no there is nothing there and I was like oh ok it's just a bit weird at no point did I think to go to the toilet and check I just felt like something was wrong got into my French lesson and we were sat on like a wooden bench and I remember being sat there for the majority of the lesson and I scooted along and I looked on the bench and I was like is that wood staining? or is that blood staining? I just don't know I got so confused and I was like do you know what, screw it, I'm going to the flipping toilet so I went to the loo and I had nothing on me I was one of these people that was really exited to start my period I couldn't wait However, I didn't have anything in my schoolbag - just in case because I just didn't think it will happen at school I dunno why so I came out the toilet baring in mind that there was like 10 minutes of the lesson left and I think I just stuffed tissues in my pants I just hoped for the best and... I remember being on the schoolbag on my way home with my jumper wrapped around my back so I sat on my jumper 'cause I didn't want anyone to see just thinking 'oh my god' it happened there is no going back - like... I'm gonna have periods now for years and years and years and... I'm gonna have to go shopping when I get back, I was really, really exited actually "Will you ever write an autobiography?" I've had a lot of people ask me this and I just feel like... my life isn't interesting enough yet... not that I feel like it will get more interesting, but... I don't know, ehm, I feel like it might be something that I'd do on like my thirtieth birthday or in my thirties I feel like... I don't really know if anyone would read that Is my life really that interesting? I don't know Maybe, in like five years if anyone is still interested by that point There are definitely a lot of things I wish I could say now, but I wouldn't be able to because I would either get in trouble or cause trama However,... in like five, six years if I wrote an autobiography I could really tell it how it is now..I think..and There is certainly a lot of stories I'd love to tell lets just put it that way I've already sold ya preorders go up on Friday - I'm joking "How was meeting One Direction? They are my fav band, I need all the deets" I realized I never talked about meeting One Direction, because they all followed me - not all of them - but a couple of them followed me on Twitter afterwards so I felt like I had to play it cool and not really talk about it storytime I said in my last video - it was one of the most nerve wracking days I felt like I looked crap and trust me if there is anyone you wanna look your best for it's Harry Styles yeah I'm not gonna lie, I really fancied him the only thing I was really worried about was that they would think that I was really nervous and rubbish at interviewing them I have no interviewing experience - so there was the possibility of that. I interviewed them erm, Harry and Niall and Zayn, Liam and Louis so I had to do Harry and Niall first so I walked in, there massive bouncer like walked me in and Harry took off his mic he was like sat over there on the other side of the room he took off his mic he came running over he introduced himself to me and to Dom my manager who we called Don i think which was kinda like funny and Dom was like no its Dom and he was like oh sorry Dom and I was like hi I'm Zoe, he gave me a big hug and he was so lovely he kinda just hovers around us by the door I think maybe he wanted a break from sitting in the chair and he took me over to this fridge that was full of drinks and sweets and he was like "do you want a drink" and I was like "I'm fine thank you" and he said "what about a chocolate bar?" he was like c'mon you need to pick a chocolate bar, which chocolate bar do you want? and i was like "ah I'll have a Dime" so he gave me a dime bar out of his fridge and I was like "thank you" and I was like ok I'm about to do an interview and I have a dime bar, so i think I gave the dime bar to Dom and... and then someone was like "Harry you need to come and sit down" so he was like "ok" when I sit down, did the interview he was so so lovely as was Niall, they were both really chatty and really sweet. and he was like "you did really well he followed me on Twitter afterwards I would love to know why he followed me, because... I'll never know... because I didn't ask him to follow me and I didn't give him my Twitter handle so... so he somehow found it or... asked someone - I don't know I would love to know the answer to that, Harry if you're watching, why did you follow me on twitter? and then I did the other three boy who were also all very lovely, but there was just something about Harry and I'm not just saying this because I feel like he has always been one of my favorite members of One Direction but he was just like, a bowl of like happiness and he went like above and beyond to make me feel ok in that situation and after he'd followed me I sent him a DM and I said I did not expect him to ever see it and I said thank you so much for being so lovely and making me feel more relaxed because I was so scared i don't remember what he said, I wish I still had it, maybe I do... How would I find it... Ok, he said "Thank you very much, I hope you had fun and you did a great job. Don't worry .. hope your well Harry xx and I was like I think it was just really nice, because they are just like normal human beings considering how bored he probably was he was so lovely that is meeting One Direction "Is being a YouTuber sometimes hard?" yes! I'm not going to scoot around it yes, sometimes it is hard which I think... for anyone, for any career they've chosen to go into they have that hard moments and just because being a YouTuber may seem really easy to some people because it's not something that their working within or doing and I just think like with everything you're gonna have your down days and you're gonna have your updates, but the difference is everyone else is gonna know about them and I think that's the hard bit, definitely besides that I love what I do so... is it ever really hard or is it hard, but I still enjoy it... it's a very grey area, because it's a hobby and I love it but... i's my job and I earn a living from it and you know... it's a big responsibility it's a job that wasn't a job a while ago so we're all learning and with the good days there come the bad days and it's the same in any career in any job really, so... that is my answer to that I feel like otherwise I'd rumbled for far too long so I'm really sorry if this video is a little bit longer than normal but I did put two kinda epic story times in there for you so I hope you enjoyed those thank you so much for watching and give the video a thumbs-up if you enjoyed it and if you want more kinda chatty Q&A story time videos and I'll see you again very soon - byeee
