EXCLUSIVE
FIRST INTERVIEW ONLY FOR YOUR EYES
GET TO KNOW
UK’S FRESHEST,CLASSIEST NEW ARTIST INSIDE OUT….
HOLLIE
GITTINS!
How are you
enjoying your first taste of fame- did you ever imagine you would be this
famous?
I’m loooving
it! It’s so crazy, it feels as if my whole life has been flipped into this
spectacular new universe. Never in my whole life did I actually believe I would
be this successful and gain so many fans with my first single! I can’t even
explain how much I’m enjoying my journey so far, and I hope that I can continue
this adventure for the rest of my life.
For those
who aren’t so familiar with you at the moment, tell us about your first
released single- what is it called and what’s the story behind it?
My first
single is called ‘Don’t say what if’. The idea for the name was actually
suggested by one of my managers as ‘don’t say what if’ is the moral of the
song. Through life I’ve noticed people often avoid doing things by making up
excuses, then they ask themselves ‘what if I actually did that?’ My song is
basically telling everyone to live everyday as if it’s your last and make the
most of your life- don’t dwell on the ‘what if’s’ get out there and have an
adventure.
Have you
always been a fan of music- who were your favourite artists growing up?
Of course!
Ever since I was young I’ve sang- it drove my parents mad because I literally
just sang everywhere I went haha! I could be walking around the shops with my
parents or getting ready for bed and I’d be singing until my voice went croaky!
I’ve always been a fan of The Script and Busted- weird combo’ I know, haha! I’ve
been to loads of The Script concerts, one day I aspire to be as big and
successful as them.
Are there
any particular artists you’d enjoy collaborating with? Who?
YEES! I
would love to work with Bruno Mars- I just love the way he has so much fun
whilst he’s performing! I can just imagine myself stood on the stage next to
him having a little boogie- even though I’m not the greatest dancer, in fact- I’m
a terrible dancer… maybe I’ll just dance in the background until I get some
dance lessons, haha!
In your pre-fame
days did you ever perform in front of big audiences?
Haha, well
if you call my local pub a big audience then yeah sure! I used to sing and play
my guitar there every other week, I used to live in a small countryside village
so the largest audience I performed in front of was probably about 40 people!
It’s mad that I’m now performing in front of thousands of people and I’m even on
TV! It’s as if I’m in a wonderful dream unable to wake up!
Do you
suffer with stage fright?
All the
time, like I thought it would be something that I would eventually grow out of,
but still to this very day I find myself physically shaking and feeling sick
before every performance! This one time when I first started performing at my
local pub I got so nervous that I threw up in my friends guitar case. I may
have accidentally forgot to mention it to him- he wasn’t exactly a happy bunny
when he went on to put his guitar in a vomit filled case ha ha! Oops!
Where do
you see yourself in the future?
Well,
hopefully on a stage in front of millions of people doing what I love most!
*Touches Wood* I can’t imagine myself doing anything else except from singing,
I think that’s what I’ve been put on this planet to do haha- I’m useless at
everything else!
