This is my article so far, but have much more to write.
After his turbulent life of losing out on the big bucks and clambering back up again, BLANK is back, raring to go, to sing his heart out and to hopefully take us along the ride with him. Blank has had many failures during his career. From losing out on a record deal to losing someone close to him. But this hasn’t stopped the gorgeous, kind- hearted indie star. He fought for the chance to be a multi million selling solo artist and here he is, fresh faced and ready to go on this wild adventure.
The first meeting between us may be awkward, but a lovely place called The Castle Bar in central London may break the ice. I arrived first as usual, fifteen minutes early, to be prepared for whichever lucky star I am interviewing. After waiting around only ten minutes I see the most talked about star since Elvis Presley in 1956. Like any other icon, he arrives in a brand new black Lamborghini; of course with the blacked out windows, to ward away any celeb-hungry paparazzi.
After sitting down at the table, which has an awesome view over London, BLANK orders a sparkling water with ice and lemon, I went for a refreshing mango frappe. BLANK apologises for being late due to a busy schedule. I accept the apology, I mean, how often do you get to interview a superstar like him? Although we are not the only people present today. BLANK has his publicist and manager with him so I don’t ask any dodgy questions. Don’t worry BLANK I wouldn’t do that to you! Ok, im going to stop being a star struck fan and get to the important stuff.
I think the perfect question to start a questionnaire is the simple, “how’s life?” “Life’s awesome, I mean, after the highs and lows of my career things have finally come together and I am as happy as I could ever be.” “Hopefully good things are going to come my way!” BLANK seems to be over the moon at this moment in time, although I want to delve more into his past. Tell me about your ‘highs and Lows’...? “Highs and Lows?” he answers. “Well I think everyone pretty much knows about my past. I’ve had a rough time, something that I don’t want to chat about too much into detail.” BLANK plays with his words for a second, “The loss of my father wasn’t good for me” It seems BLANK is more sentimental than the press makes out to be, but HEIGHT OF SOUND isn’t the type of magazine to bare too much information about such subjects. Onto happier subjects, tell us the most random and humiliating thing you have ever done. “There are many of these in my life!” he laughs, “But the most idiotic thing I have ever done was when I was intoxicated with Jack Daniels and Beer. Let’s just say the girl I was sitting next to, never spoke to me again.” Ouch. Did you fancy her? “Yeh, she was hot. She was my best mate’s sister” he chuckles. BLANK casually takes a gulp of his drink while trying to contain his laughter. What are you laughing at BLANK? “Oh, it’s just the thought of my mate reading this now, its quite funny, ‘coz he didn’t know I shagged her”. BLANK we are ashamed of you, but it’s quite funny. Speaking of women and your love life, you’ve been seen with Sarah Harding a few times, what’s the deal? “Well, we are just friends, she’s an awesome girl and I get on with her really well. There’s nothing going on. I promise.” O.K we believe you. So is there any lucky lady in your life? “No sadly. I haven’t got the time at the moment, works kind of taken over” We understand, BLANK has been a busy man touring around Europe for a year.“Touring has been the best time of my life. I could do it over and over again for the rest of my life and that’s what I intend to do. The favourite part about touring is definitely the fans. When I was in Germany, they went nuts. There was a bit of a problem in the audience, I think someone went to hospital for being trodden on!” BLANK is well known for making an audience go crazy for him. Singing isn’t the only thing he does on stage. BLANK usually films a music video, when on tour in certain countries. If you’re lucky, you may even get invited on stage from the audience to get involved with singing his songs. “The reason I get the audience involved is because I think it is important to share the music with everyone. They are my songs, but the reason I created them is for my fans benefit. They are part of my inspiration for writing the songs. Obviously there is some inspiration from people personal to me, but the fans are mainly.” HEIGHT OF SOUND loves the fact that people keep looking over and miming, “Is that BLANK?”, “oh my god look!”
One girl has the courage to come over and ask for a photograph. Her friends are laughing and giggling into their hands in the background. BLANK positively agrees to have a photo taken with her. When the girl has left, BLANK smiles, “I love it when they come over. Other celebrities hate it, but I really love to chat to them. I enjoy their company. Especially hers, she was gorgeous.
That last comment from BLANK raps it up. He has become a very successful solo artist and is loved by millions of people all over the world. From Germany to America, this guy is not going anywhere. This short chat has hopefully given you an insight into BLANKS life. If you want to hear BLANK’s music, im afraid you’re going to have to wait until Monday 14th June.
