*Ian sniffs a baby's head* Mother: "Stop smelling him!" Ian: "Why?"

[@thecreativemillenial]

At the time, no-one would've thought anything of it but now that I understand what he is, it horrifies me

[@Alex8609BrindyJames]

Looking back, Ian Watkins clearly gave us clues to the kind of man he was revealed to be.

[@russoswerve7856]

I love watching footage that seemed harmless at first but becomes very foreshadowing. It’s just surreal, like you’re seeing evil show themselves

[@rankrodent2772]

That’s an odd thing to love watching, lives were ruined…. Children’s lives too

[@Grunge4ever1993]

This is one of the scariest videos of all time.

[@rottenwishes575]

Damn, that was a tough one to watch, a disturbing amount of kids on Ian Watkins' lap. Also quite disturbing when asked about the highlights and he said kids first and then hesitated about the women part. He was so darned transparent, I mean, sniffing babies? That kinda gave it away.

[@wolpertinger85]

3:28 The fact that he seriously asking WHY (just look at his face, he's not joking) is killing me

[@TheVonFinleys]

Presenter: "What was the highlight?" Ian: "Kids"

[@tc98826]

"er... and women"

[@Manuelabor1978]

why? "eyes open huge"

[@patriceaqa288]

@@philipthethird6832 The 'scariest' part of this is that the 'beloved' Alexa Chung was beyond besotted with Watkins. Submitted herself to all his weird sexual kinks. Watkins proves one thing, and one thing only, and that's that how you look is all that matters in life. The number of glamorous women who put up with a sadistic paedophile simply, and only, because he was so attractive is quite sick. Vanity wins out everytime. He still receives around 100 letters a week from female groupies, even now knowing what he did. It boggles the mind

[@sashaboo72]

@@patriceaqa288 I can’t see it personally. In my opinion he’s not attractive at all, but I suppose just being a pop star is enough for some.

[@patriceaqa288]

@@sashaboo72 beauty is in the eye of the beholder and his female 'fans' make Justin Bieber look unpopular when he was a star. Almost insanity regarding him in that regard. But hell if women will flock to a Ted Bundy trial then it's simply something beyond explanation

[@sashaboo72]

@@patriceaqa288 yes. Some women seem to be attracted to fame and famous criminals, like the despicable Chris Watts who murdered his wife and kids, and yet receives tons of mail from adoring females proposing marriage. When the rest of us would like to strap him up to old Smokey. Crazy it takes all sorts.

When NORMAL people smell a babies head its bc babies are innocent and sweet and have that soft baby smell. Not here. Icck...this freak was loving this in an ENTIRELY different way. 🤮 So interesting that the Mom seemed to actually sense that something was off And awww at the sweet little baby looking at him happily (not knowing how disgusting this all is. This baby is now an adult somewhere and is probably so freaked seeing this)

Can't listen to any lost prophets song anymore which is a shame. Start something was an amazing album! But as far as his band mates go...they must have known something!

[@lo_2710]

I agree with you about his band mates knowing. I think they didn’t want to lose their livelihood, so they kept it hush. They were at the top, and they thought it didn’t impact them directly so they didn’t care. Only when he was charged were they acting like they weren’t aware and saying they were disgusted and stuff. He’s sick and his band mates are as well.

[@metalhead5816]

Such a creep, I tried to keep a clear head and evaluate his behaviour and the way he sniffs and kisses that childs head when he doesn't even know them or the parents is weird and he says why as if he doesn't even know he's doing wrong. At the end when he says "kids and women" seems quite selfish and I get the impression he's saying it as if he's attracted to both. I think I and most normal people would have came out with something like "making the people happy with the presents I gave them". Pedophilia is in his nature, true sicko.

[@NotASummoner]

Saying that kids was the favorite part isn't that odd I think, the way he said it though....

you're all forgetting he started his sickening acts 5 years ago, this was 7 years ago, this was when he was always around the band and stuff, when he was normal, 2 years after this he turned into the disgusting freak show that he is today, this is the guy that wrote songs which really helped people but now....well he can rot in hell.

[@silentwars666]

Are you really that naïve? No one but him knows when he started to abuse and judging from this video I’d imagine he was at least thinking about it … Just look at how he starts sniffing that baby and says that the kids are the highlight of his day. I’ve heard stories of him taking advantage of young fans as far back as 2002.

[@Etinaver]

[@DieWilWheatonDie]

Gary Andrews well, people don't just magically turn in paedophiles in one moment, they are either born like this (sexual deviation) or become somebody like that after experiencing something traumatizing as a child, so he was already a sicko back then whether he started doing it or not.
