Question 1.) Since when have you been singing?
Interview with Brittany Harkins!
1.) How old were you when you decided you wanted to sing?
I really started singing when I was about 3 years old. When my mom and grandma would take me out for lunch I would get up from my chair and start singing in the restaurant. When the ladies in the restaurant would clap, I would just get louder. It wasn't until I was about 9 that I really started to get more serious about my singing. From an early age I was a competitive gymnist along with taking singing and dance lessons. At that age I decide to put all of my energy into singing and dancing. I went into a recording studio a few times and recorded some songs, and then, a few years later, I became part of a local Radio Disney Group called RD7. We got to open up for Raven and the Jonas Brothers (before they were really big) at a a few local concerts and perform at a pre-party for the Cheetah Girls and Hannah Montana, here in Virginia. Those experiences were amazing! When I was up on that stage with all of the lights and people in the audience, I knew that this was what I wanted to do.
2.) When you were younger, what was your fave song?
When I was younger, the ultimate song for me was "Miss Independant" by Kelly Clarkson.
3.) What's your fave part about singing and being on stage?
The best part about being a singer and performer is being on stage. I can't believe how lucky I am to be able to do something I love so much. I realize that performing is a huge privilege and I really enjoy sharing this talent that God has given me. I also really love the fans. It feels great to see people enjoying my music!
4.) What's your fave food?
My favorite food, my whole life, has always been mashed potatoes, haha.
5.) What's your fave animal?
As for my favorite animal, that is hard. I am a huge animal lover - I mean actually an animal freak! I even love bugs. I get really upset when anyone in my family kills a bug. Any bugs I see I carry outside and set free. It would be really hard to say what my favorite is. We have 3 cats, a rabbit and 5 hamsters at my house and I love all of them!
6.) What's your fave movie ever?
When it comes to movies, I don't really have a favorite because I love so many, however, I love scary or action related movies! :D
7.) Do you have any advise for girls that would like to sing too?
Yes, I do : If you want to become a singer, you really need to put your heart and soul into it! You must sacrifice a lot of your free time to practice and even though it takes a lot of work, it will definitely be worth it! You really have to believe in yourself. But in my eyes, I believe that everyone is a unique star in their own way :)

EXCLUSIVE: Interview with Ariel Moore!
1.) What was it like going on tour with the Clique Girlz? What was your fave part?
Going on Tour was am amazing experiance . The Tour bus , the hotels , the CONCERTS of course . But I really missed my family and that was really hard for me .
2.) What was your fave part about being in the recording studio with Paris and Destinee?
My Fav part about recording with Dest and Par was how we would always try and make it fun . We would play around when we werent in the booth .
3.) Are you going to release an album with NMD?
Yes,, I will be releasing an album with NMD. We are in the studio and rehearsals all the time preparingfor the future.
4.) Do you know when we’ll be able to hear some of the NMD songs?
Im now to sure yet , but im thinking soon they might be releasing a little something to atleast give you guys a taste. We are keeping allot of it secret for the big launch.
5.) Whats your fave part about starting a new group, NMD?
My Fav part about starting a new group with NMD was being able to really take my time and getting to know everyone first . I made a decision to do a group again because I have always enjoyed working with a team and I really wanted to go with all diff nationalities. I love how we are all individuals , but we are still close and a pretty great group , we all fit perfectly . Finding the right parents to be involved with was just as emportant as finding the girls for the group. It took us a few months to get to the final 5 girls working with a few alternates. And I have to say we really feel we make the right choice. All the families are incredible .
6.) Whats your fave part about singing and performing?
I have always loved singing and performing. I have been doing it since I was 5 so it is just second nature to me. My dancing was something I really couldnt persue in the Clique Girlz so im glad now that my group is all girls who are strong singers and dancers. We really have allot of fun in rehearsals. For fun just the other day I taught the girls a new dance just for fun and it was a blast. They really are a great bunch of girls.
7.) Do you have any artists that you look up to?
Love Sarah Barelllis , Alisha Keys , Beyonce, Taylor swift, Gaga is a trend setter and an artist so I admire her work but im not fond of allot of the meanings behind her songs. I love all artists really. If I went through them all I could prob find something I liked about them all. I love talent so I guess I have allot of people I could say are my Fav.

Interview with Madisen Hill!
1.)Whats your fave song to sing?
My favorite song to sing is my new song 'Dangerous'. It hasn't been released yet but I am so excited for everyone to hear it! It's about girls and how "dangerous" they can be. It has an awesome beat and I really hope people like this song as much as I do!
2.)Whats your fave part about dancing for Tyler Shamy?
Dancing for Tyler Shamy has been a great experience. We have made great friendships and have had a lot of fun together. We always look back to the first rehearsal I attended and joke about it. Anytime I would forget part of the dance, I would laugh at myself. Tyler and the other dancers though I was crazy. We have so many memories like that and they are definately unforgettable!
3.)Who’s your fave actress/actor?
My favorite actress is Rachel McAdams. I think she is incredible and I absolutely loved her in "The Notebook". My favorite actor is Will Smith, because he is so accomplished, but still keeps his family first.
4.)If you could only take 2 things to a deserted island, what would you take?
If I could only take two things to a deserted island, I have no idea what I would do. I guess it would definately be my bible and food. But if I could add a third thing, my cell phone would definately be next. No doubt about it!
5.)Whats your fave animal?
My favorite animal is a dolphin. Why? I don't know. I couldn't choose and that's the first thing that came to my mind. :)
6.)Whats your fave part about the Summer?
My favorite part about Summer is being able to relax a bit and just hang out with friends and family. Well, that's how it has always been in Missouri. But in California, my favorite part is definately that there is no school.

Interview with Jamie Dahlke!
I love reading and because of that I dont think I can pick just one book as my favorite, but I can tell you that I love the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy books. I think Adam Douglas was a literary genius. I can never get enough of his in your face British Humor.
2.) Where's your fave place to perform?
I just love performing period! The rush of getting up infront of an audience and doing something I love is just undescribable. If I had to choose my favorite performance spot so far though, it would probably be the Orpheum Theater in Los Angeles. I performed there during the 2004 Ovations Awards. Its amazing how huge that theater is and the backstage area is just as interesting. I believe it was built around 1926.
3.) Whats your fave animal?
I have alot of animals and there are definitely alot more I would like to have ,but my favorite animal would have to be the cat. I have to wonderful cats named Oscar and Waffles and I don't know what I would do without them.
