This afternoon (Wednesday 15th November), Stormzy spoke to Capital Breakfast’s Roman Kemp where he discussed getting locked in the ladies loo at the MTV EMAs on Sunday.
RK: Roman Kemp
S: Stormzy
RK: The MTV EMAs. Brilliant performance, I absolutely loved it, brought the house down. Even better, you got stuck in the toilets…
S: Exactly. Do you know, it’s so mad. I always forget that if I Snapchat something – this sounds so naïve – but I’m still used to snapping and thinking ‘oh it’s just my mates’. I always forget it’s broadcast to the world.
RK: Just a few million people looking at that…
S: Yeah, yeah, just a couple of people. But I was in there and I could just hear loads of voices, and I’m thinking ‘wait, hang on, what’s going on here?’. I could just hear loads of female voices; I’m thinking ‘nah… I know what this is, I’ve been stitched up’.
RK: So you literally just walked into the girls toilets?
S: Yeah, do you know what it is, you know when you’re running to the toilet, and I’ve seen the gents and I went into the gents and I remember smelling it and it was mad. So I’ve run out the gents and just ran into the next one but I can’t even remember seeing a sign. But yeah, trapped.
RK: How did you get out?
S: Kenneth. I was just texting Ken like ‘yo, alright, listen, I think I’m in the girls toilets’. Because you see - because the walls are so thin, I didn’t know whether the voices were coming from behind me. But I was like ‘no, I think I’m in the girls toilets and I’m not trying to come out, and like just, and like pop out on everyone, that’s mad’. I was like ‘no, no, no, I don’t need this, I don’t need this incrimination. Ken come get me please’
RK: So you’ve just waited until your mate Kenneth has come through…
S: No, he was just texting me, he was trying to locate which… he was like ‘are you on the far right?’ I was like ‘yeah the last cubicle.’ He was like ‘yeah just wait there’. And then Anne-Marie’s across the road, she’s in the other toilet brushing her teeth so I’m thinking ‘oh my days, man, I’m gonna look like the creepiest dog’
