Andre cited his shyness for one bad date story, admitting that he actually ran away from the date!
He said: "I was in college and I was quite shy back then. There was a girl that was always hitting on me. She invited me to the cinema. I was there waiting for her and she turned up with all of her female and male friends, so I got frightened and I ran away! For two years of college they clowned me for it. My fight or flight instinct carried me away."
