"I'd never been booed off stage before, but I just remember looking out and seeing like everybody booing, everybody, even old people. I was like, "Who boos a child pursuing his dream?" "This is the meanest crowd in the world!" That was the best thing that ever happened to me.

After that I was fearless."
