The Saturdays

The Saturdays on the 5:19 Show

Popsugar have posted another Q&A session with The Saturdays:

Last week Pop UK told you all about upcoming girl band The Saturdays. Obviously we had to catch up with them quickly too to find out about their fashion and style! Bella UK was particularly taken with their crimped hair whilst I was impressed by their technicolour wardrobe!

• Is looking stylish and on trend important to you?
  

  Yes! As a band we each really enjoy fashion and we each have unique styles that we’re very passionate about.

• Do you have any style influences?
  

  Rochelle – Audrey Hepburn / Eva Longoria
  Una – Nicole Richie
  Frankie – Alexa Chung
  Mollie – Kate Moss
  Vanessa – J Lo

• What are your style tips for FabSugar readers?
  

  Don’t over do it and keep it natural. Try all clothes on first before you buy or bring along a friend for an opinion. Keep make-up natural.

  Urban Outfitters, Selfridges and American Apparel

• Do you prefer Designer or High Street?
  

  High Street!!!

The Saturdays official site has updated giving us some important TV information in the build up to the single release – which is just over a weeks time now!

Over the next seven days the girls will be hitting day time TV so make sure you get up early to check ‘em out!

First up, the Girls will be performing on GMTV tomorrow morning!!! Make sure you tune in at 8: 50 as they sing ‘If This Is Love’ and stick around for a chat on the sofa too. Vanessa has set three alarm clocks to make sure she gets up on time!

Then next Friday, the girls will be hanging out with those Loose Women and performing on the lunchtime show sometime between 12:30 and 1:30.

Just a quick note about The Saturdays on the radio! You might aready know that they have been B-listed on Radio 1 but they have recently been A-Listed on Capital FM!!!

Also the girls will be on the Switch with Nick Grimshaw this Sunday from 7pm on Radio 1.  Make sure you check them out!

From PopSugar:

I think we’re all in agreement here at Sugar UK HQ that we need some exciting new British pop groups in the charts. Well, yesterday I caught up with lovely ladies The Saturdays to get the lowdown on their inspirations and aspirations as well as just generally finding out a little more about the shiny new Brit girl group!

The five glam ladies – Una, Mollie, Frankie, Vanessa and Rochelle – are about to release their danceable first single “If This Is Love” on July 28 (NB: you might recognise Frankie and Rochelle from S Club Juniors). FabUK and BellaUK will be giving you the lowdown on all their fashion and beauty preferences this week too, so keep an eye out!

• Hi girls. First things first, are you already sick of the Girls Aloud comparisons?
  

  It’s always going to happen because we supported them on tour and are signed to the same label. We just want to be a band in our own right. Girls Aloud are great though and it’s a huge compliment.

• How would you describe your music in five words for anyone who hasn’t heard it?
  

  Pop / Catchy / Melodic / Meaningful / Uplifting

  (Listen to new single “If This Is Love” and exclusive track “Lies” at their myspace!)

• Who are your influences, idols and inspirations both musically and generally?
  

  The Spice Girls were amazing so we’d love to be half as big as them.

• Tell us your favourite current UK pop bands?
  

  Girls Aloud!!!!! And Take That!!

• I give them major kudos on the Take That choice! To find out the girls’ dream dates to the Brits 2009, their aspirations, and what they wouldn’t do for a million pounds, just read more
• In an ideal world, where do you want to be in a year’s time?
  

  Having a #1 album and a sell out tour!!

• What’s the best party you’ve ever been to, and what made it so good?
  

  The Girls Aloud tour wrap party was amazing!!! They sure know how to party!!

• OK, time for a couple of individual questions: You have three words to describe yourself, what words would you choose?
  

  Una – Outgoing / Determined / Passionate
  Vanessa – Silly / Modest / Nice!!
  Mollie – Fun / Driven / Romantic
  Frankie – Flirtatious / Confident / Chatty
  Rochelle – Ambitious / Bubbly / Friendly

• Who would be your dream date when you attend Brits next year?
  

  R – Chris
  F – Mark Ronson
  M – Chace Crawford
  V – Wentworth Miller
  U – Johnny Depp

• Not many Brit men in that list, but I’m totally with you on Chace and Johnny… Are you sticking to the UK for now, or will you be crossing the pond any time soon?
  

  America is definitely in our sights but we’re just taking one step at a time at the moment!

• What wouldn’t you do for a million pounds?
  

  Get naked in a lads mag!!!!!!!

• Glad to hear it! So what does the rest of 2008 hold for you?
  

  We have got 3 singles and the album [coming out]. Plus more dates with Girls Aloud and loads of fun on the way!

• And finally, tell us a secret…
  

  Erm, we’re all men in drag!?!?!?!

Sorry, girls, I’m not convinced! Check out some more about The Saturdays on their website, I’m sure we’ll be seeing a lot more of them in the future!
