Notes
- Trevor Wilson was 12 years old when he starred as the eponymous protagonist of the music video for "Jeremy", by Seattle rock band Pearl Jam. In the video, Jeremy is depicted as a boy suffering extreme isolation and alienation, taunted by his schoolmates and unable to get through to his parents. His behaviour becomes increasingly agitated, with strobe lighting effects adding to the anxious atmosphere. In the final scene, he is shown striding into class shirtless, tossing an apple to his teacher, and standing before his classmates, where he draws back his arm and takes a gun out of his pocket (this only appears onscreen in the unedited version of the video), before the video cuts to a close-up of Jeremy's face as he puts the barrel of the gun in his mouth, closes his eyes, and pulls the trigger, spattering his horrified classmates with blood. After the phenomenal success of the video, Trevor, now a little taller and filled-out, appeared in person with Pearl Jam at the 1993 MTV Video Music Awards. Wilson was in the crowd with his mum that night, and joined Pearl Jam on stage when they accepted the evening's biggest award, for Video of the Year, with singer and frontman Eddie Vedder announcing "Hey everybody, this is Trevor - he lives!", as he lifted Wilson's hand and patted his young video star on the head.
