The MTV studio lights are searing, framing 5SOS at the height of their fame. The interviewer tosses out a casual question about celebrity crushes. Michael, completely unprepared, lets out a nervous laugh, his cheeks flushing red as his bandmates trade knowing looks. Luke leans in with a teasing grin, waiting for the answer. Michael stammers, the air thick with tension, before he finally blurts out, 'you.' The interviewer confirms, 'The vocalist for The Martians?' Michael shrugs, a shaky laugh escaping him.
