Speaking about which celebs have been in his DMs since, he revealed that none other than pop superstar Justin Bieber sent him a super sweet message.

Sam said: “I looked at my phone, got a DM from Justin Bieber,” explaining he was taken by surprise in case it was a ‘fake account or something’.

He went on to explain that Justin shared Sam’s cover of a Sia track to the songstress herself: “And then he’s like ‘hey I’ve just text your Sia video to Sia, she’s stoked on it and she’s just posted it."

The ‘Space Man’ star continued: “So it’s like Justin had given me a heads up, so it was like a double whammy; going on to Sia’s page and seeing she posted the video of me singing her song and she’d left such a lovely, kind, encouraging comment, just rooting for me.

“That means everything because she’s like a vocal hero of mine, wicked person, and it kind of gives you a bit of hope and faith you’re on your right path.

“To feel that is invaluable,” he added.
