“I Grew up on 90’s Pop princesses like p!NK, Gwen Stefani, Xtina, Avril. ALL THAT GOOD STUFF!!”

5) Tell us about the writing and recording process for your new single/album…

“It constantly changes, Sometimes I might be in the studio writing for somebody else, but an idea just comes to me and feels very “me” Ya know?
Some days I’ll write the whole song in 3 minutes on the tube in London and sometimes on my mum’s couch in Liverpool, every day is different.”

But more of a personal note was releasing my own music after so long waiting in the wings! That’s been a highlight seeing my name on the record finally!”

8) Have you met anyone and been totally starstruck?

“I don’t get starstruck, we all eat, bleed and use the bathroom the same! That’s what someone once told me ha! But I think the day I meet LadyGaGa I will be. She’s not human.”
