“It’s really cool, and I’m really excited and I’m really happy about it.
“I managed to get my life to a point where I not only was known by a person that I thought was the hottest f**king f**ker alive, but pulled his a**! Are you kidding me? Can we just [get a] round of applause for me.
“Thank you, Jesse Rutherford, everyone!
“I pulled his a**. All me. I did that s**t.”
