Carolynne phone Interview – 24th May 2004

Part One.

Time: 11:45 pm – half 12 (!)

Carolynne’s location: Go on, I give you one guess!! Yep, a car! Lol.

Ok, I asked as many of your questions as I could. So thank you to everyone for them!
Carolynne was in a car on her way home to Leeds from Manchester.

S: So, what have you been up to today?
C: Oh, I’ve just been doing all sorts today! Just catching up with things because I’ve not been well. Starting to feel myself again now though, which is good!

S: Are you in the studio this week?
C: Urm, not this week. I’ve got all this week and most of next week to just catch up with meetings. Then after that I’m back in the studio, will be cracking on!

S: You’ve not decided anything about a record deal yet have you?
C: No, what we’re gonna do is a showcase, a live showcase. So that’s what we are working towards next!
S: When will you be doing that?
C: I’m not sure yet, but I’ll be sure to let you all know! But I mean, it will be after the summer. You know I’ve been working with the “Dirty Geezers”?
S: Yeah
C: Well they have been in New Zealand for a while, so when they get back I’ll be doing another 5 or 6 tracks with them, and then we will sit down and pick what ones we wanna use for the showcase. But they really want me to do another session with them before we decide on the tracks for the showcase.
But, there’s no rush, because at the end of the day, there’s everyone else out at the moment, James, Alistair Alex, Sam and Mark, Michelle, all the pop idol and Fame Academy people. The plan was to get something out around January
S: January?
C: Yeah, but that’s not written in stone or anything, it’s like the draft lines, but hopefully!
S: Ok, cool! Well we have had quite a few questions about the “Cystic Fibrosis” awards!
C: ooh ok!

S: Chelle wanted to know did you have any input into the song you sang at the “Cystic Fibrosis Awards”, and how come you were asked to sing it?
C: I don’t know why they asked me to sing it (giggles) but urm,
S: She didn’t mean that rudely! Haha
C: (laughs) But I didn’t have any input into the song, the song was written by a lady who has Cystic Fibrosis. Her friend who was actually going to perform it passed away, so....So I performed it as a surprise for her, she didn’t know I was going to perform it til I was on stage. But yeah she wrote the song herself. It was a really sad song as well

S: Yeah it is! Dan asked how long you had to learn the song?
C: Urm, I had a couple of days to learn the song, I took it on the train to learn and stuff. The first time I heard it I cried my eyes out! I went to my mum and dad and said “ooh I don’t think I can do it!” . But it’s absolutely.... I just couldn’t believe how sad it was! It wasn’t just a bit teary, it was absolutely ball your eyes out sad!
S: That’s how I felt when I first heard it!
C: I know!

S: Ellie asked whether you would consider releasing it, or having it as a B-Side on a single?
C: Not for something to do with me. I would do if it was for charity and something that goes towards to cystic fibrosis, but not as part of my album. Purely because it wouldn’t really fit in with the rest of the songs (laughs) But yeah I would do it for charity.
S: Is there any chance of that happening then?
C: Urm, probably not, because I think it’s quite a personal song to the lady. But you never know!

S: Dan asked if there are any songs you’ve written that are based upon your life in the academy?
C: Not really, no, not so far. But some have some things to do with it, but none are actually all about being in the academy.

S: Do you think if you had gone on Pop Idol instead of “Fame Academy” that you would have won?
C: (laughs) ooh.. I don’t know! You never know! I’d have had a good crack at it!

S: When you release your album, will you release it after one single or wait until you have released more?
C: I don’t know, these are things that the record company decide.

S: Another question from Dan, if there are any songs that you like that don’t make it on the album or as singles, will you let us hear them?
C: Yeah! (laughs) There will be a million of them!! Too be honest, most of the songs that are my favourites might not make it. I mean, sometimes they are a bit too deep and meaningful. A lot of the songs they like at the minute are all the funky, upbeat, cheeky songs. Some are quite rude!! But the songs that mean the most to me are quite personal, they are my favourites. But that’s why ya kinda need an A&R to say what they think we sell, and not just choose one because it’s your personal favourite.

S: Ellie asked what is a typical day for you and what do you do on your days off?
C: On my day off? (giggles) erm.... nothing!! (laughs) Well it’s different, I probably....well if it’s the weekend I will get up, after laying in for a looong time!! Probably stay in my pyjamas for a little while, might go watch the rugby with my best friend Jessica as her boyfriend plays rugby. Then go for a drink afterwards, then go out for a night in Leeds!

S: Are you looking forward to the Epsom gig when we all descend upon you?!
C: (laughs) Yeah!! I’m still like not totally sure what’s going on. Because I’ve had time off I haven’t sat down with my management and looked at what’s happening. Obviously they have been telling people I’ve not been doing anything for a couple of weeks, to make sure they were looking after my best interests. So not next week but the week after I will be sitting down with them and looking at my schedule... (pauses) Sorry, I wasn’t concentrating for a second then coz (shouts to driver) you are driving too fast!! (laughs)
S: haha, who’s driving?
C: My friend, he thinks his boss coz he has a posh car today!! I’ve given him a limit as well! (laughs) stick to the speed limit I say!! No matter what car you have got!

S: Wahoo asked, why are you always online at the most awkward times?!!
C: Because that’s the only chance I get to get on it! My dad is always on the computer doing his work, and it’s always when I get in which is quite late, the only time I get! So it’s always late at night!

S: Nicnic wondered what you thought of James in the Eurovision, and would you have done it?
C: Erm, we actually got asked, me and Louise got asked to do it. But we didn’t. Quite a few people actually got asked to do. But I think James was wicked. He was never gonna win it coz of the politics, we knew that, but he was wicked.

S: Charlie wanted to know what was the last concert you went to?
C: hmm (thinks) Justin Timberlake!
S: Was it good?
C: Urm, I always get bored at concerts!
S: do you?!
C: yeah, honest I do, I’ve got a really short attention span! I did think he was good. He did that beatbox thing for a bit too long though!

S: If you could sing with one singer, dead or alive, in concert, who would you choose?
C: male or female? (giggles)
S: Either!
C: Ooh Pharell Williams!! No, probably Gwen Staffani, coz I’d like to be something like that, not as in her voice, but just coz she is cool. I couldn’t say Shania Twain or Mariah Carey or anybody coz they would just blow me away if I was stood on stage with them!(laughs) I wouldn’t get a word in edge ways!

S: Ok, this is from Imp.....
C: Wahey! (giggles)
S: He said, it’s nearly summer..
C: (interrupts) Well done! (laughs)
S: (laughs) clever!
C: ( still laughing)
S: What would be your dream holiday? I mean are you a “quiet, tranquil and breathtakingly beautiful” or a “bloody heck, can’t remember that, must have been bangin” kind of person?
C: (bursts out laughing) haha! Well my dream holiday is both of them! You gotta have a couple. You have to have one where you go away and leave it on the plane! A “whatever we do we don’t tell anyone when we get home” that one! A dream one..... well, white sand, blue sea!

S: Are you the sort of person who has their life mapped out in front of them, or is it just every day as it comes?
C: No, I go on impulse me! It’s got to be every day as it comes! I kinda have a little bit of a game plan, but not too much. I’m no anorak! But no offence to anyone who does map it out totally though!!

S: We know you love Jaffa cakes, but what is your favourite meal, and is it the food or the company that make the meal?
C: It depends.... if it’s a nice meal you forget who you are with! (laughs) Only kidding!! No, it’s the company that makes the meal!! My favourite meal is..... I’m a bit of a meaty bird, I like meat...(giggles)
S: Yeah... (laughs)
C: (laughing) ooh no.... cooked meat!!
S: That sounded dodgy!
C: (laughs) No, I like... erm... ok, well if I was a dinosaur I would be a Tyrannasaurus rex. That’s not a vegetarian one is it?! No, I’d be the big one that eat all the little ones!

S: You know Room 101?
C: Room 101?
S: Yeah, it’s a tv programme
C: No
S: Ok, well I wont ask you that one then!
C: (laughs) I don’t watch much telly!
S: You dont get time!
C: Well, I’ve had some time the last couple of weeks, but I still haven’t watched my telly. Apart from “Footballers Wives”!!
S: Oh you watch that then?
C: Yeah on and off. I got asked to do a screentest for the part of Amber when I first came out of Fame Academy. So I watched it to see what she had to do. I think I would have made a good bitch! (laughs)
S: Do you regret not doing it?
C: Urm.. I would have loved to do it actually! But it’s not my priority at the moment. But it would have been fun!

S: If you could live anywhere outside of the UK where would you choose?
C: America!! Yeah I will live there one day! Definitely! I’d like to take a year and just tour it, you know all the bits and bobs it’s got to it. Not just the fairytale bit in LA.

S: Cherrytree asks: If you could write a song for another artist who would you choose?
C: Erm.....hmm.... No Doubt! I’d like to do one for them. Or Westlife.... I would make them swear!! (laughs)

S: Chris said what is your favourite character on the board game “Cluedo”?
C: (laughs) Well, I’ve never played Cluedo, so I dont know. Sorry!

S: Chris also asked who is the nicest celebrity you have met?
C: (thinks) Johnny Vegas!! Ooh and Dawn French! She heard me say on the telly that I wish I could have a cuddle from her. So she came up to the show, even though she is from Cornwall where Alex is from, and she came up to me and put her arms around me and gave me a cuddle. I was like aww. It was wicked, I had my face in between Dawn French’s boobs!!!(chuckles)

S: Jon said he is a big fan of the Leeds Rhino’s. He wondered if you get a chance to see many of their games, and have you been to many this season?
C: Yes I have! I sang at one this season, and one of my really good friends plays for them, so I catch up on what they are doing all the time!

S: Bexy says she works for the club “Creation” in Leeds, and has seen you there a few times...
C: (giggles)
S: She wondered where you’re fave night out in Leeds is?
C: You will always find me in the “Living Room”!! And I’m always on Greek Street.... did I really say that? (laughs) But yeah I’m always there with my friends and my sister. All the bouncers there always laugh at me when I try and park my car!! I’m shocking!! My reverse parking... I always leave it in the middle of the road and the bouncer parks it!!

S: How is your driving going?
C: It’s going good. (asks her friend) I’m wicked at driving aren’t I?? (laughs)

S: Dan wondered if you remembered writing a song in the academy with Gary called “See you on the other side”?
C: See you on the other side........ urm..... Ooh yeah!! It wasn’t very good was it?! (laughs) I thought it was a bit pants.
S: (laughs) Ok, well he just wondered if you developed that any further?
C: No, no I don’t think we did!
S: Katie wanted to know whether you still see many of the other Fame Academy students?
C: Yeah!! Paris is like one of my best friends. I see him all the time. I see Alistair now and again! I speak to Louise all the time...
S: What’s she up to at the mo?
C: She’s just watching Jenson at the moment with his racing
S: What about Alex?
C: I speak to her now and again

S: Ok, one from Imp. If you could make a law what would it be, and what would the punishment be for breaking it?
C: Ooh dear.... that’s a good question actually. But if I answer that honestly I would get in trouble!!! Ok, if I could make one law... I would make it that everyone in the premiership had to play in the nude!(laughs) and the punishment would be if you didn’t do that, you would have to play for Tranmere Rovers!! (cracks up laughing) I’m gonna get into soo much trouble when my dad reads this!

S: Apart from performing arts, is there anything else you are really passionate about?
C: Nothing like singing or performing no, I’m not a great lover of sports in the way that I’m passionate passionate about it. Anything else apart from that is that I’m passionate about my family and friends.

S: Imp asked, how come you are so gorgeous? (laughs)
C: How come I’m so what?
S: Gorgeous!
C: Gorgeous?! (laughs) its er.... because he has his beer goggles on the whole time tell him!! Honest!!
S: Nah!
C: Get to specksavers!! (laughs) Aw bless him!!

S: Ellie said, do you have any tips on injecting emotion and feeling into a song?
C: Well, honesty and write it from the heart and then there will be nothing but emotion in it then.

S: Imp asked what would you rather be caught doing...
A) Coming out of a Star Trek convention dressed as Spock or
B) Coming out of a sec shop with a large parcel bearing the warning sticker “Caution!May cause seismic disturbances when operated” !!!

C: (laughs) Well I’ve already done that second one aint I?!
S: That’s what I said to him!!
C: I’d rather be caught dressed as Spock though rather than the whole world knowing I own a “Rampant Rabbit” (laughs)

S: Katie said she is from Wales, and wondered if you have ever been there and what do you think of it?
C: Yeah, but I aint been over there long enough, all I know is that you have to pay to get over there! You have to pay a fiver to cross a bridge, we were gutted! (laughs) But I did do a gig there
S: Oh was that the one with Girls Aloud?
C: Yeah! I think so, yeah it was.

S: Bexy said, with Big Brother approaching....
C: (jumps in) No way!!
(lol that wasn’t even the question)
S: But who would you love to be locked up with for nine weeks?
C: Pharrell Williams! I don’t why though, he’s not even nice looking!
S: Pharrell?
C: Yeah!
S: He is quite good looking though!
C: Yeah, well he’s just sexy isn’t he?!

S: What one thing would be the sign that you’ve made it?
C: Well, I used to say when one of my songs was played in the cafe at Eastenders, but they’ve done that haven’t they?!
S: Yep they did! When someone impersonates you on “Stars in Their Eyes”?
C: Yeah! Something like that. Or when I get to go on “Parkinson”. When he asks me about my Rampant Rabbit!! (bursts out laughing) and I show it and it’s raffled off into an auction!! Ewww! I haven’t used it by the way!!
S: (jokingly) Yeah yeah!
C: (laughs) I haven’t, I haven’t!! It scares me!! Have you seen it?!?

(lmao. )

C: (laughing) Anyway carry on, get on to the next question quick!!

S: A moral Dilemma : Is it better to tell someone the truth about something even if it might hurt their feelings in the short term, or do you live with a lie to make them happy even if only for a short while?

C: Tell them the truth. They will find out in the end anyway. It’s always best to tell them the truth! They will only be doubly upset if they think you have lied to them. Well I would anyway!

S: Cherrytree says, If you hadn’t have chosen a career in music, what other career would you have liked to have done?
C: Acting! I always used to want to be a reporter!
S: Did you!?
C: Yeah good at gossip!!

S: What are your all time fave top 5 songs?
C: Oh man! I need time to think of that one. I don’t know! My favourite one at the minute is Kelis’s “Trick Me”. Also the new N.E.R.D song, and the old N.E.R.D one! I like them!
S: Because of Pharrell?!
C: No...well.... yeah, you know (laughs) Well there’s lots of songs, I could never pick five!

S: Leanne asked what your favourite Pink song is?
C: Fave pink song.....I think....hmm.....
S: A few of us on the message board thought her last song sounded a little bit like your song “That’s why we don’t speak anymore”
C: Which one? “Why was I the last to know?” ?
S: Yeah!
C: Yeah! I like that one. I think it’s coz it’s really repetitive like “That’s why we don’t speak anymore”.
It’s got the same drums and stuff. But there’s one I really like on that album actually. Can’t remember what it’s called. That’s how much I like it!! (laughs) I’ll get back to on you that, I’ll text you that one!

S: Another from Cherrytree. She says : What are your favourite names?
C: Urm..well I’ve always said that if I had a little girl I would like to call her Sydney!
S: What about Gwyneth Paltrow calling her baby Apple?!
C: Ooh, well that just takes the mickey don’t it?! Does she know what grief it’s gonna get at school!? I mean come on! That’s like what Bob Geldof once said to Peter when we were at the Capital FM awards. He said “will you sign this for my kids” so he signed the stuff. Then he said to Peter, sign it to “Peaches”. Peter went “what?” and he said “Sign it to Peaches!” . So Peter didn’t want to say “Peaches???” so he said “can you tell me how to spell that please?” and Bob Geldof just looked at him and frowned and said “Peaches! Like the f**king fruit!!” (laughs)
S: His kids have got mad names haven’t they?!
C: Yeah! But If I’d gone to school called Apple I would have got beaten up worse than I did!!

S: Hayley4eva said : When you look back at your time in Fame Academy what feelings do you have about it?
C: I have mixed emotions. Some of it makes me feel really happy, but some of it makes me feel really sad and dissapointed and let down. Not to do with the students, well some to do with them, but a lot to do with what went on behind the scenes. They just feed you lies. You know a lot of the people who worked on it, they just played mind games and you realise that when you come out of it.

S: Ok, do you forgive and forget, forgive but don’t forget, or just forget?!!
C: (bursts out laughing) Neither! I don’t forgive em! No, I do, I forgive but don’t forget. I just pretend I’ve forgot. I can’t forget, I find it impossible.
S: Well it depends what doesn’t it?
C: Yeah it depends what they have done. I’m not that forgiving really, I think I’m a bit harsh!

S: How was the Soccor Six match in Leeds?
C: Oh it was good, but I wasn’t very well, so I couldn’t play.

At this point Carolynne arrives home, so we arrange to carry on the interview later that day.

25th May – Part two of the Interview.

Carolynne says she has seen the new site layout and think it’s great! She has read some of the messages on the boards too.

S: What do you think of the Frankee and Eamon songs?
C: (laughs) I would SO have written that song back! That’s what my mum said, she said it sounds like something I would do. Everyone’s been saying that! The song that really annoys me, well the person that really annoys me at the minute is that Eminem!
S:Eminem?
C: Yeah, that song “My band”
S: I not exactly a fan of that song either!
C: he is like “blah blah” about my band. Well it’s a good job he is in a band otherwise he wouldn’t actually pull a bird!! It’s like what ya moaning about?! You’re in a band, you got lucky, otherwise you wouldn’t have a chance!
S: It’s meant to be by D12 isn’t it? But by listening to it you would think it was just one of his solo songs!
C: Yeah! I mean he is really lyrically gifted, but he does think he is “it”. If he were a chocolate bar he would eat himself!
S: (laughs) That’s like when you said about JLO
C: Yeah, I cant stand people who love themselves. I mean Jlo “I’m real” yeah whatever! She is about as real as Jordan’s boobs!!

S: There is a picture of you with Johnny Vegas, are you a fan and also which comedian makes you laugh the most?
C: I really like Johnny Vegas, he is wicked, so yeah I am a fan. He came to the show and gave me a hug!
S: Like Dawn French did!
C: Yeah! I like French and Saunders. I also like Peter Kay. I don’t like “Phoenix nights” but I like his stand up stuff. I also really like Jack Dee because I am very sarcastic. I know it’s the lowest form of wit and all that...
S: He stays soo straight faced!
C: Yeah I love it! He is like “what?”. I also think he is quite sexy actually!

S: Another question from Imp! He said, Astrology...I don’t know about you, but it always worries me in my stars when Russell Grant indicates “you will be getting great pleasure from Uranus” (laughs)....
C: (Bursts out laughing) Oh dear that’s.... What is he like?!
S: he says kind of a worry ay, but my question is astrology mumbo-jumbo, hocus-pocus or is there something in it?
C: Erm, well I think the whole reading your stars and Mystic Meg things in The Sun and other papers are not right, but it is something that you do read. I am very much a believer in your star sign and some kind of Astrology. I am a typical Leo, I am a Leo down to the bones. I do believe in some things like that, but I don’t understand it that much. My auntie reads Taro cards and I do believe to some extent in stuff like that. But not all the “Oh you will meet your perfect match today”
S: No, you don’t live by it
C: No I don’t live by it, but I do believe.... well my perfect matches are Sagittarius and Aries. I should stay away from Scorpio’s coz most my ex boyfriends are Scorpios!!
But I do believe in that stuff coz it just is true. It’s unbeliveable how true some of the stuff I read is. Not that I read in books about it. Me and my friend have actually just bought a book of spells! We watched “The Craft” and decided we wanted to be witches!! (laughs) Actually I’ve got it right here, I’ve just been reading it, it’s a bit daft. I was thinking can I put a love spell on someone!
S: You’re ex’s had better watch out!!
C: No, I’m leaving them well alone!

(Caz reads out a bit of a love spell. Lol)
C: I mean, B*gger that, I will just get drunk and try and pull him! (laughs) Buy him a beer!

S: Katie asked if there was any way that you could get the guitar chords for some of your songs and put them on the site?
C: What songs?
S: Erm, just some of the ones you’ve written that we’ve heard.
C: I’m not sure if I’d be allowed to do that actually, I don’t think my publisher would be very pleased!! I’ll ask and find out.

S: What’s the maddest thing that’s happened to you since leaving the academy?
C: Well the strangest thing was, once I had come out of the academy I just wanted to go shopping in Leeds. I got out of the taxi near the train station, and I was just so happy to be walking by myself, I’d been out of the academy for two weeks. I went into the shopping plaza and went into a really cheap jewellery shop and was looking at all the hoop earrings and daft stuff, I turned around and the whole of the shop was just stood staring at me! And they all came over to me and the security guard of the shop had to go and put me back in the taxi and I had to go home!! It was very strange going out for a while, it still is.
S: Is it?
C: Yeah. When I first came out of the academy everyone had something to say to me. But now people stare or say something stupid and then more people come up to you. Before it was too bad, but now you just get used to people looking at you, then they shout over “oh she looked better on telly” (laughs) and ooh she’s little!
S: It will probably go a bit mad again when you release songs!
C: Yeah, but I don’t think it can ever be as mad as when you have just come off a tv show.
S: Don’t you think so?
C: No, well not as mad as.... well if you think about one of the new artists, Natasha Beddingfield, she’s not been on telly every single day 24 hours a day with every different kinds of audiences watching. If you go to the supermarket with your mum people will know you, or if you go to a school, or the pub. It’s the kind of audience you will never hit like you will with a primetime tv show.
S: Yeah true, unless you were a megastar
C: Yeah but still if Madonna walked down the street do you think people would all run up to her? They would look at her and go “ooh”. But because you’ve been on a reality tv show people come up to you and..
S: Think that they know you!
C: Yeah exactly! They come up and go “oh hi ya”. I was in a hotel the other day and this guy dropped his bags and ran up and hugged me! I was like “Hiii” and I looked and my friend and I was like “please tell me who he is, I’m crap, I’ve forgot” She was like “I dont know”! But then the penny dropped and he started talking about the show, and I thought Oh yeah I was on Fame Academy, I forgot! (laughs)
S: Just that little thing!!
C: Yeah! It’s quite funny though!
S: Yeah it must be strange. You need a sign to remember!!
C: Some girls are really nasty though. I was out in a club a couple of weeks ago and a girl stuck a cigarette in my face!
S: A cigarette??!
C: Yeah!! Cheeky....
S: That’s awful! Why?
C: I dont know. Apparently coz I was on Fame Academy!! (laughs)
S: What did you do?
C: Well my friend had to calm me down!! I couldn’t believe it!
S: It cant be nice putting up with that!
C: Well some girls are nasty, but whatever. I’ve dealt with them my whole life.
S: Girls can always be so nasty
C: Yeah!! I mean you would think they would be on your side!
S: They are just jealous of you!
C: Well they are just nasty

S: Alan wanted to know what your fave Alanis Morrisette song is?
C: “You ought to know”
S: Do you like her?
C: Yeah, love her!

S: What do you personally feel was your best performance in the Academy?
C: “Underneath your clothes”. But I don’t like any of them now!!
S: Are you sick of them now then?
C: I’m sick of them as in watching them, I’m too critical. Like with the Cystic Fibrosis performance, my dad taped it and I watched it once but couldn’t stomach it again! I don’t like seeing myself!
S: It wasn’t because it was sad then?
C: Yeah that as well, but I kind of got over that. I got really sad in the rehearsal. So I just focused on something else.

S: Chris wondered if you are going to the British Grand Prix at Silverstone with Louise, because he is going and hoped to meet you both.
C: Aw, no, I was going to go but everyone I was going to go with is either working or training. Jenson is doing really well though!

S: If there was a Hollywood film of your life who would play you?
C: Urm, I like Neve Campbell.
S: Because she was in “The Craft”!
C: (laughs) Yeah that’s why!!

S: Complete the following sentence... I swear....
A) With profound feeling and great fluency
B) Hell yeah, almost every F’ing sentance contains a F’ing swear word
C) Only sometimes when I’m stressed
Or
D) Me never

C: (bursts out laughing) Ermm....Well, I have been know to let out the odd F word!! You know what, at the Fame Academy after party they had a big massive screen up and all the time it was flipping from me to Alex saying “F**k, f**k, sh*t, b*ll*cks” flipping to each of our faces! (laughs)
I do swear, I shouldn’t, I wish I didn’t! I cant help it! I have been known to swear in the wrong situations. I nearly swore on BBC Three! My dad hates hearing me swear, he tells me off!
I don’t recommend swearing by the way!!

S: Jon asked about when you were a cheerleader for the Bradford Bulls. He said was it awkward cheerleading for them if the Rhino’s were playing?
C: Oh yeah definitely! I’m a proper Rhino’s fans! I love rugby in general but the Rhinos are my favourites..... (pauses) Especially one of them!! (laughs)
S: Which one?!
C: It’s a secret, I will keep them all guessing! They wont guess!
S: They will all be guessing now....
C: (laughs) Yeah tell them to all guess, and if they pick it right.....
S: What’s the prize then? (laughs)
C: I don’t think they will you know!
S: So, it’s one of the Rhinos.....
C: (laughs) All I said is I’m a fan of the Rhinos, especially one of them, that’s all I’m saying! How much trouble will I be in when people read this?!?

S: Cherrytree wanted to know whether Paris has got a record deal?
C: Paris has been offered different stuff. We’ve all been offered different stuff to do, but taking the record deal isn’t the be all and end all of it. Paris stuff is wicked, I love him to bits, he has a lot of talent and has a lot of time for people
S: He always seemed like a nice person
C: Yeah he is wicked.

S: Is there any question you would refuse to answer?
C: Urm, well I suppose if it was about something personal that had just happened in my life. But I would be polite and just say I couldn’t answer it.

(We just chat about picture messaging and Carolynne says she will send some pictures for the site. I will be adding a photo she sent me to the site asap.)

S: I think that is most of the questions now. Some people were having trouble thinking of some new questions
C: Really? I think they all are too scared, tell them to ask me what they REALLY want to ask me (laughs) Then they will find out if i ever refuse to answer a question!!
S: Be warned then for the next interview...........
C: (laughs) I know yeah!! Haha! Well I will do another one pretty soon then, they can all have a think and ask me what they really wanna ask.
S: You’d do that then?
C: Yeah course I would! (chuckles)
S: (jokingly) They will be afraid you will tell them off!
C: Yeah, but I cant get em can I?! They dont have to put who it’s from.
S: Ok then..... an anonymous interview
C: (laughing) That would be funny! Bless them! Say hi to everyone for me and thanks for staying on the website and stuff, and that I’m feeling a lot better so I cant wait to crack on in the studio and stuff! As soon as I know anything I’ll be letting you know! I look forward to reading people’s replies to this interview! (giggles)

Well, that was about the end of the interview. A huge thanks to Carolynne for doing yet another marathon interview! And thanks to everyone for their questions!

And you heard her guys, get those really personal questions at the ready!! Haha. You’ve let yourself in for it now Caz!! Lol
