Matsuura and Charlie Heaton, also known as Jonathan Byers from 'Stranger Things', have a three-year-old son together by the name of Archie. This information wasn't known until after some recent problems that Heaton had in an airport while trying to get into the United States and being denied due to traces of white powder on his belongings that resembles the likes of cocaine. Archie was born in May of 2014 and lives primarily with his mother, but Heaton does spend time with him when he can, though a lot of his attention is taken up by acting. It is possible that Heaton and Matsuura were hoping to keep information about the boy a secret, but recent events caused Heaton to bring out more information about him.

She's keen on keeping the event exciting and claims to dislike when singers stand in place and don't do anything to make things interesting. A couple of the things she has done on stage include playing music in just her underwear and also performing a lot of stage dives. In this way, she works to make sure the show she puts on isn't boring and instead keeps the audience involved. Due to her outrageous antics, she has brought a lot of attention to herself while performing and has also fallen on her face from time to time. Getting wild on stage can be exciting, but it's important to be careful.
