You look amazing, can you share any beauty tips?

Table of Contents

Wow, thanks so much, I do try to keep looking my best! My tips would be to drink lots of water and always take your make up off at night. I also love using my Loreal BB Cream which is perfect for me when getting ready for pics on and off stage and I’m also really into using a bold lip colour by Mac.

What was the best bit about supporting Lionel Ritchie on tour?

Touring with Lionel Richie is just the most amazing and exciting experience EVER! The highlight for me has been meeting the legend himself, he has been so warm and welcoming towards me I am so grateful to be on tour with such an amazing man and also performing twice at the London O2 Arena !! I can’t explain the buzz you get walking out onto a stage in front of 20,000 people and throughout the whole tour I would have performed up to 350,000 people..that concept is just mind-blowing!

Favourite venue?
One of the most amazing venues I have ever performed at has to be The London O2 Arena. The size of the venue is breathtaking and I have always dreamt of performing at arenas. It was also extra speacial as a lot of my family and friends were there cheering me on.

Any backstage rituals you do before going on stage??

I always gather my band just before we go on stage and do a little group hug and pep talk..it’s great to share that buzz and excitement with my boys!

Do you still speak with Peter Andre (Having toured with him last year)

It was so much fun touring with Peter last year..Love him!! Less hectic schedules would probably allow us to talk more.

You’ll be gigging with Tito Jackson in July, do you know what your going to first say to him?

I am literally so excited about gigging with Tito Jackson. I can’t wait to meet him, it will be a dream come true for me. It’s often hard to know what to say to such a legend but I’m hoping to chat to him about the music and hear some of his Jackson 5 stories if I’m lucky!!

‘In Love Alone’ is your new single, What’s the song about?

The song was written with the amazingly talented Matt Cardle who I clicked with right away and it was written within just a few hours! I personally love the lyric content of the song and the subject matter. It was written after hearing someone comment that they didn’t want to keep falling in love alone. It was a subject matter we could both relate to, so it stuck.
I hope that a lot of people will be able to relate to this too. Everyone goes through tough times in love and it’s important for me to write and sing about real life.

QUICK FIRE QUESTIONS:

Who is your favourite McBusted member and why?
Tom, I love his voice and think he is such an amazing songwriter…Also I think every girl went weak at the knees after watching his grooms speech on his big day.

Best Olympics memory?

Performing right in the heart of the Olympic park and soaking up the atmosphere was a highlight for me. It was great to do my part in my own way for team GB!

Fave artist right now?
Just like the rest of the world I am hooked on Sam Smith’s voice and songs.

Last movie you watched?

Cinderella!! It was such an amazing movie with a strong message….’Have courage and be kind’ I was lucky enough to attend an exclusive screening in Leicester square which included a look around the pop up exhibition.

Your on a night out and find yourself in a takeway, what would you order?

Cheesy chips every time!

Final quick fire question – which site is your favourite for entertainment!!

I do love checking out MarkMeets.com to keep me up to date on everything entertainment.

Okay, We’ve seen loads of pics on your facebook/twitter but you rarely seem to take selfies…do you have any tips for taking pics or how to pose?

I do love a good selfie!! But more recently I have been posting pics from all of the show’s whilst on the Lionel Richie ‘All the hits all night long’ tour.

I’m known for striking a pose, my advice would be to smile and a hand on hip always works for me.

What’s next for you?

I have lots of exciting things in the pipeline, but one gig that I’m particularly hyped about is supporting The one and only ‘Tito Jackson’ on the 17th of July at ‘Under The Bridge’ in Chelsea. It is a one off,rare London solo show, where he will be performing his classic hits as well as some new material from his solo album! This is a show not to be missed and I can’t wait to be a part of it and support such am amazing showman.
