00:00So lovely to see you. You look like a rock star. I feel like you always do, though.
00:04Oh, thank you.
00:05I'm going to admit something quite bad. This is my first ever Summertime Ball.
00:09Is it?
00:10I know, it's quite shocking.
00:11It feels like my first.
00:12Does it?
00:13It's my first solo.
00:14Well, yes.
00:15And I haven't done it for seven years. So I'm like brushing off the cobwebs, you know?
00:19Well, that's true, actually.
00:20I know, yeah.
00:21I was thinking you've done loads, but then not solo. So how does that feel, then?
00:24It's really scary.
00:25Is it?
00:26I'm really excited, but I'm scared. I feel sick. All of the above. All the emotions wrapped
00:31up in one.
00:32But your voice, honestly.
00:33Oh, thank you.
00:34I'm always like, how nice! It's so good.
00:36Oh, thank you.
00:37You're such an amazing performer. It's funny to hear you say you're getting nervous.
00:40Oh, that's really sweet. I think it's because I care so much. So if my vocal's not 100%
00:45or I miss a step or whatever, I'm like, ah! But that's because I put pressure on myself,
00:49which I shouldn't. I should just go out and enjoy it.
00:51How long is the set?
00:53I think it's about ten minutes.
00:54Okay.
00:55Which is hard when I don't have any songs out.
00:57So I've got Forget About Us, and then I'll be teasing my next single, and then a cover.
01:02Oh, can you say what the cover is? Are you not allowed to yet?
01:06Shall I?
01:07It's going out on.
01:08Yeah.
01:09Yeah.
01:10So I'm covering Whitney, which is scary, and I'm also doing it at a key higher. Yay, me!
01:13Right, now I understand the nerves.
01:15So now I'm like, oh, okay.
01:17Why have you done this to yourself?
01:19I don't know! And why am I dancing at the same time? Ah!
01:23This is just silly, really, isn't it?
01:25So does it feel weird, then, doing this solo without the girls? Is it when you've got each
01:28other, is it a bit more of a comfort thing?
01:30Yeah, definitely, but I've dragged my best friend Renee out there with me, so she's a
01:34dancer, so I'm like, as long as I've got all my girls with me, and I've got my band, then
01:38I'm happy, rather than just feeling bare on my own out there. So yeah, I am excited.
01:42And the second single, that's nearly out as well. It's all gone so fast, hasn't it?
01:46I know! Next single's on Friday. I feel like Forget About Us just came out, so it's crazy,
01:52but I'm really excited for this song, because it's so different to the first, so hopefully
01:57everybody loves it.
01:58And I take it, obviously, you and the girls are in constant contact.
02:01Yeah, they just messaged me. Jade was like, good luck, babe, with the little pixie fairy
02:06emoji, and I was like, you're going to smash it? I'm like, this is weird. It's bizarre.
02:11Well, apart from the Whitney thing, you've got nothing to worry about.
02:14Yes, thank you.
02:15You're going to be amazing. I can't wait to watch your performance.
02:17Thank you, thank you so much.
02:18Nice to see you.
02:19See you.
02:20Bye!
02:21Thank you.
