Writing my interview for the double-page spread

To do this I read alot of women's magazines with interviews and also music magazines. I looked at the sort of style that is used and the kind of questions asked. I ended up writing it the style of a Company interview with Florence Welch as I felt it represented what women would like to know but also was to do with music, as Florence is a musician. Instead of questions it was like a series of headings with comments by the interviewee.


 
It’s been a hectic year.
It’s all just gone really fast, a lot faster than I expected it to happen. One minute you’re nobody and the next you have so many opportunities, everybody knows your name and everybody wants a piece of you. It can be really scary.
What can’t she do?
I’ve been singing since I was really young, I get that from my mum. I learnt to DJ as I got a bit older and the people I made friends with in college were into that sort of thing.
The tune I can’t get out of my head.
Greyhound by Swedish House Mafia – its really powerful and it just makes me want to dance and go crazy.
The punk-girl look.
Everybody asks me about my look, obviously it’s quite personal and unique, it has adapted over the last year as I have become more aware of how I am constantly being watched and criticized. I never really used to care much about what I wore; I dressed for myself and wore clothes I felt good in. But being where I am you have a constant reminder that you are being watched and you do find yourself dressing for other people. I’ve managed to stick to my own style and I am still comfortable in my own skin.
Piercings and tats.
I have a few piercings; my nose, ears and tragus. I’d have loads more but I am a total wuss and hate needles, they really creep me out. I have a tattoo which I got really soon after I turned eighteen, my mum was shocked and tried her hardest to convince me to wait but it was really important to me. It’s across my side on my ribcage, it says ‘if at first you fail at least you failed whilst daring greatly’ which really means a lot to me.
My girl-crush isRita Ora. I love her edgy urban look, and her hair is incredible.
The best advice I was ever given was by one of my closest friends. A few years I went through some quite stressful situations where I was just constantly worrying about what was going to happen next and whether I would be happy, I was always trying to make everything perfect. He told me to just chill out and only worry about being happy at the present moment, not get wrapped up in things that haven’t even had a chance to happen yet.
In the future I hope to be successful and happy. I don’t want to worry about it for the moment, I’m happy today and that’s what matters.
I dream of playingtomorrowland.
Don’t tell anybody, but my guilty pleasure is Keeping up with the Kardashians. I just love them, I don’t care what anybody says, they are hilarious! The ideal night in is curled up on the sofa, eating pizza and watching as much of a series as I can manage. Bruce is my favourite, he gets so picked on, bless.
You’ll never find me eating cereal. Ew, no way.
