FRESH DPS Q&A INTERVIEW

FRESH: has one of the most famous girl bands with us today for an EXCLUSIVE interview, they have come all the way from a tour in America to see us today! We have all the members: starting from left to right: Britt, Rosa and Jaydee.

FRESH: hello, we heard you just came back from a massive tour in America! How was it?
B:  Tiring, but amazing!
R: Yeah defiantly tiring, but it was worth it, it was our second major tour in America, just as amazing as the first time, maybe even better, our fans were great.
J: I agree with the others, we all love going to America so it was a great treat for us.

FRESH: Have you always wanted to be a singer?
J: Yeah since I was really little, it was nothing serious just me singing along to songs, until I was a bit older I started to enter in to the schools talent shows.
R: I wasn't really in to music properly until I was much older , then I began singing in my bedroom all the time, just having fun really..
B: I was the same as Rosa, just sung for fun when my favourite song came on, wishing one day I could be like beyonce! (everyone laughs) it’s a personal joke between us all, best not share( all laugh again)

FRESH: Did you all want to be in a band?

R: Yes! If it wasn’t for meeting these two and singing into our hair brushes, I don’t think I’d be a singer. We started off as great friends in middle school and became really close, we used to go round each other’s and play on singing games on the PlayStation.  Jaydee would always win!
B: Well I didn't think I was going to end up being a singer at all but I couldn't have imagined doing it without these girls. Jaydee was by far the best but we are all just as good as each other now.
J: Too many compliments!, Well my dream was to be a singer no matter what, but I’m glad my dream came true with these two girls, we’ve had so much fun together, it would be boring without them!

FRESH: when did you realise you were famous?
B: erm, I don’t think It was till our first tour in America, we knew we were famous before then but it didn’t quite sink in until then, there was so many people coming to watch us, it was insane, we knew we had a lot of fans but not that many!
(The rest agree)

FRESH: Who was your idols when growing up?

B: Beyoncé 100%, she’s just amazing, her and destinies child!
J:  I had always wanted to be like Rihanna and I always wanted to have a voice like Whitney Huston.
R: Cheeky girls all the way! Loved them! (everyone Laughs!)  I didn't really have an idol or someone I aspired to when I was younger I just used to listen to anything, Barbie girl and everything, my taste in music has improved a lot since then!

 FRESH: What has been the most embarrassing thing you've done on stage?
J: One time I had a long dress on, and I stood on the bottom of it and almost tripped, didn't quite make it in the news, but I felt so awkward after.
B:  I don’t think I have done anything embarrassing on stage..
J: You have, that time you forgot the words.
B: Oh yeah, I didn't get much sleep before a gig we did so I forgot the words but it was okay I covered it up by facing my microphone to the audience to get them to sing it, no one noticed, our fans knew the words very well!
R: Mine is similar to Britt’s, I forgot to turn on my microphone, so I started singing then realised no one could hear, everyone just laughed.

 FRESH: Have you ever dated another singer or celeb?
R:  Well at the moment I am currently dating Niall from One direction, I’m surprised not many people, know.

B:  Me and Drake have been an item for a while, we haven’t made it official yet, but I think we’ve both decided it’s time to let people know.

J: me and Justin Timberlake used to date, but we were both too busy with our music careers so we are just friends now, I think it’s made us better friends.

FRESH: Have you ever brought your own album?
J: No, I did think about it but I thought it would look a bit strange buying my own CD, although I did think about it.

B: well I haven’t personally but I did get my mum to buy it, she’s not really one for listening to the charts so I told her to buy my CD instead, now in the car she always plays our CD!

R: Yes, (blushes) I put some sun glasses and a hat on  (everyone laughs) so no one would recognise me and went in, I got some funny looks considering it wasn't very warm outside

FRESH:  If you weren't a singer would other job would you be doing?
R: I would have been  a teacher! I love children, who know I could have been a music teacher, but I would have loved to look after younger children.
J:  i’m not too sure, I wanted to be a singer so I focused on that and didn't really consider anything else, it would maybe be in the fashion industry, or magazine editing..
B: erm, I would have either been a photographer, I've always loved photography, or in the fashion industry, it’s always been my dream since I was very little, I wanted to bring out my own clothes range, I even designed my own clothes at one point, you never know it could come true!

FRESH: for someone starting out in music, what advice would you give them?
B: I would just say, keep trying, don’t give up and don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
J: keep training your voice, but don’t overdo it.
R: I think the girls pretty much covered it, I wouldn't aim to high at first.

what do you think you’ll all be doing in the next 10 years?
J: well hopefully we will be massive and will gain even more  fans!
R: Well we should have loads of new albums by then and like Jaydee said, hopefully we’ll have even more fans!
B:  Hopefully we can collaborate with some other bands or singers, it’s too soon to say yet but me and Drake my work together in a song sometime soon!

FRESH: when is your next single out?

R: our next single is out very soon actually! It’s out in July the 12th! We are just making finishing touches to it, make sure you all buy it!

FRESH: Thank you guys, you have been great.
