10 things you should know about kavana!
He's Just released "Special Kind Of Something" and he's terrified of budgies! Read on for the Kav lowdown....
1. He Nearly Drowned!
"I was in the sea on holiday when
I was three years old. I had really long hair as a kid and all I can remember
is seeing my hair going in front of my eyes and sinking to the bottom -
my sister had to save me! I still love swimming though, so it didn't put
me off the water"
2. He Hates Birds...
"I'm not too keen on things with
wings, especially ostriches - they're horrible. I don't like budgies or
anything. I'd be really creeped out if I found a budgie under my bed! And
snakes, I don't like them either."
3. ...And Flying!
"I'm not keen on flying but I have
to cos it's part of my job. I'm alright once I'm in the air, it's taking
off and landing I find scary."
4. He Loves Cats!
"I've got a cat called mickey and
he's really cool. Mickey would be the first thing I'd save if my house
was on fire. I've just fed him his breakfast so he's jumping around the
garden at the moment."
5. He's Been Out With Kylie! (Erm...Sort
Of!)
"One of my best dates was with an
Australian girl called Kylie, but it's not Kylie Minogue! She was a make-up
artist I met in LA and we had dinner at The Ivy in Santa Monica (Swanky
Restaurant). It was really good!"
6. His Teeth Turned Black!
"I went on a date with a girl and
I ordered octopus in ink. By then end of the meal I could see the girl
was looking at me strange, so I went to the toilet - and my teeth and mouth
had turned black!"
7. He's Got A Tattoo
"It's on my right arm and it's a
Celtic cross with a shamrock in the middle of it. I'm Catholic, so it's
got my Irish roots and the shamrock, which is an Irish Symbol, cos my dad's
Irish. I might get another one on my stomach, but I don't know what to
get."
8. He Loves Prince!
"The greatest song ever written
is Nothing Compares 2 U by Prince (performed by Sinead O'Connor
in case you're wondering)
9. He Nearly Got Murdered!
"There was a train track outside
a villa where I stayed in Italy. There was a serial killer on the very
train that ran outside my house and nobody could find him for three months!
They eventually caught him and he was this old rich businessman who used
to go in the toilets and murder people!"
10. He's Just Like His Dad...
"I've inherited the coolness of
my dad, cos he's very relaxed and chilled out. He doesn't take life too
seriously and he's a thinker as well. I think a lot too, but I also get
my argumentative attitude from my mum."
