I wanted to play pretend and play dress up and disappear into weird worlds and entertain and try to connect with people that way, and that was just not the norm out there."
"He went on to share that he feels "blessed" to have had an experience that enables him to have such a positive, and forgiving, perspective. Storrie said of those who are nasty to others: "If you're trying to belittle someone, it's probably because you feel pretty small yourself because I know when I've been mean in the past - we've all done things - it's because I felt this big," he said, pinching his fingers close together. "I felt itty bitty.""
Connor Storrie responded warmly when a childhood YouTube video resurfaced amid his rise to fame for Heated Rivalry. The video, posted when he was 12 under the name "Actorboy222," showed him confidently saying he wanted to be an actor and citing Jenna Marbles as inspiration. Storrie described his younger self as an artist in West Texas who preferred playacting over traditional expectations. He declined to villainise people who ostracised him, saying they are often hurt, insecure and sad, and described feeling blessed to have experiences that foster a forgiving perspective.
