-- The Resident has an article about Sheamus' appearance at Tyl Middle School in Montville last week for "Be A Star." During the appearance, Sheamus talked about being bullied as a kid. "When I was your age growing up in Dublin, Ireland, I was bullied in many different ways," Sheamus revealed. "I was chubby, small and quiet. I was a target for bullies and I got picked on. I hated myself. I literally wanted the earth to open up and swallow me!

"I always thought it was my fault. Later I understood it was not my fault. It was the fault of the bullies. The bully is the problem."
