Steven: No. I’ll watch Blur at the end, but that’s probably it.Would you piss on Ed Sheeran if he was on fire?
No!Would you piss on Adele if she were on fire?
She’s very talented, but I’m not a fan.Would you piss on Jessie J if she were on fire?
God, no. Is her hair even real? She’s awful.
Waffa, 22.VICE: Would you piss on the BRITS if it was on fire?
Waffa: Potentially, if it would put out the fire, yeah!Do you think it's still relevant, then?

Yeah.Would you piss on Jessie J if she was on fire?
Errr… I'm half and half.

Ollie: I don’t know, I haven’t really been paying attention to it.
Byron: If I was really desperate. Depends if I really needed to go.
Ollie: I don’t think you understand the question.Would you piss on Jessie J if she was on fire?
Ollie: I don’t like Jessie J.Her voice is really grating.She said she understood how amputees felt after breaking her ankle.
Ollie: Yeah, she was on crutches for like, six weeks!
Byron: I feel sorry for people in wheelchairs.Would you piss on Ed Sheeran if he was on fire?
