So has anything changed since we were last here, Hmmm … let’s see … well my beautiful fiancée Brittany Knox is still most definitely the breast, Glamazon still isn’t finished killing men, Cassie Summers has mellowed a little but we still love her, Ryan Ross Hernandez is still a complete ass and I still remain jealous of him and it seems like the path to superstardom is simples, you don’t need to be talented, just be a bitch instead. However our guest for tonight coined the phrase Bad Bitch and has mountains of talent, please welcome our first guest of the new season, it’s the ever incredible and completely frightening … GLAMAZON!!!"
INTERVIEW
So Glamazon, how’s it going?
Not too bad thanks, sweetheart... of course I'm actually quite excited because I've been dying to get on this show for quite a while!
It’s been quite a rise for you, just over a year since you signed to Junction Records, I remember because I was working there at the time and I’m not gonna lie, you kinda scared me. How would you describe your rise over the last year?
I scared you? Aww, what a compliment, I love it when all the boys tell me that. (Laughs) I know, you're right... it only felt like I introduced myself yesterday and here I am with whatever the hell I've achieved, for me, I've put out a lot of material that I'm proud of and that's just the biggest achievement of all, fuck the charts and whatever, it's all about that feeling of self-pride and once you get that feeling, you know you've done the best you can do for your fans.
You first came to our attention with your Lethal Love series which I thought was just incredible and it kinda gave us an idea just how crazy you are, what were your thoughts when people started to pay attention to that?
You know, it was really kinda crazy because it was just meant to be a small thing that helped me build a fanbase and to create a way for people to understand who I am as a person and as an artist. But of course, there was a lot of effort put into it and that's definitely one side of my career that I love, I'm very hands on with the film-side of my career, all of the vision to it, so I'm always directing or co-directing my own music videos and everything.
Of course your completely unique but who do you take inspiration from?
I'm very much inspired by movie soundtracks and 60s horror movies, as well as powerful women... such as my grandmother, my mother, and the one and only Cruella de Vil! She's my role model, I could be her for a day.
You got your first number one single with Heart Malfunction, was it a surprise to have such success so quickly and how did it effect you?
It most definitely was a surprise! It never really affected me though, it opened my eyes more instead, it proved to me that I can be myself and I don't have to change my music or my style for anyone because it was so well received. People have always been trying to change who I am my whole life and it was a big slap in the face to them because I was finally being who I wanted to be and people actually embraced that instead of pointing the finger at me and telling me that I'm too confrontational or whatever. I've always said fuck the charts but I'm not going to sit here and say that it isn't amazing, if you're going to say that a number one single doesn't feel great, then you're a liar.
And you’ve had five number one singles, that is some monster success right there, did you ever think your music would be so commercially accepted?
Definitely not, I just never saw myself as a mainstream artist, well... I still don't really because I'm very much on the more aggressive and harder hitting side of pop, so I kind of feel like I don't exactly fit in with the whole pop princess scene that of course sells so well to the public. But of course, I feel that the industry is changing, people want truth in music and they want artists who are out-spoken, daring and pushing boundaries which of course not everyone is doing.
And would you say you were the biggest star in the music industry right now because it seems like nobody can really touch you?
Of course not, I'm very outspoken when it comes to my achievements but there's some things I draw the line at. (Laughs) There's so much talent out there at the moment that I think it's kind of impossible to call just one person the biggest star, because one day there's someone, and the next day the majority obsess over someone else, that's the way the industry works right now, it's so busy but that's how I like it. I think without competition there's a lower standard, people want to be the best, and if you don't see what the best have to offer, then how will you know who really is the best?
Your style is obviously an important part of who you and what you do, you’re a little scary and a little mysterious do you ever worry that people will become scared by you?
I take that as a compliment, but it's never something done on purpose. My style is very brutal mixed with feminine, so that's just the type of clothing that catches my eye; I don't go around looking for clothes because I think I'm going to make a man sweat in fear over me. (Laughs) It's nice, but I dress to match my own taste and not to purposely get a reaction out of people.
And this is question I’ve wanted to ask for a very long time, believe me. So … are you human?
When I feel like it, what about you? (Winks)
You’ve been praised so many time for your lyrics, what is your thought process and how do you keep coming up with these monster hits?
The response to my lyrics never gets boring for me because there's such a feeling of achievement when you know someone has actually read them and is impressed with them. If you read them, a lot of my lyrics mainly deal around the topics of revenge and sex, two of the best things in the world, right? So you could say that ex-boyfriends are to thank, I have quite a violent mind to be honest, but I'm also quite feminine, so you can once again see that mix of feminine brutality in my lyrics just like my style. I don't purposely sit down and say "I'm going to write a hit today" because it doesn't work like that for me, I've never been one to write a song about downing shots in the club and I never will because to me, it doesn't show emotion, and that's something that plays a big part in my music.
What do you want to have in your life in ten years time?
I want a husband! I like the feeling of eternal love, now of course nothing lasts forever but a girl can dream about stuff like that, right? (Smiles) I also want several more albums, I want my own film, I want a child, I want my own clothing line, I want my own book, I want the world in short.
And with three albums released, a U.S tour beginning on July 23, a Rockstar boyfriend in Eric Quillington and a home in Los Angeles, Is there anything left for you too achieve?
Umm... I don't know! I've done quite a lot, haven't I? As I just mentioned, there's still more things I want to do but everything will come in good time I suppose, at the moment I'm very much obsessed with film and I'm in the new Secrets In Suburbia film which is wildly amazing, so you can probably expect more film-related stuff in the future.
What about your family, are you still in contact with them and what do they think about your success and image?
I only really speak to my mother in my family, she's very much a fan and adores my style, she's always trying to steal my clothes actually... but at least that's her way of saying she approves. As I said, I don't know about everyone else because I'm not much of a family person.
I’ve heard your somewhat estranged from your father, of course you can’t trust everything you read in gossip magazines but is there any truth in that?
Umm... yeah, he got arrested a while ago for nearly killing my mother and he got released like a year ago, he tried to come back into contact with me recently but do I love woman beaters? Not at all, so I thank him for one thing, helping me to have the anger I do in my lyrics today and for making me so obsessed with weapons.
Okay and finally, what is next on Glamazon’s world domination schedule?
I really don't know! I've put out so much material recently that I think I'll probably have a long break after this upcoming tour, I don't know what I'll do exactly, but there'll be something waiting, I'm sure!
PERFORMANCE
Glamazon stands at the microphone and lowers her head as she prepares to sing an acoustic version of "How to Destroy Your Boyfriend" whilst accompanied by a guiar player. She then raises her head for the first line and seperates her red lips as she delicately and softly sings the opening line "I know how to wrap a man around my finger", she smiles, playfully and innocently singing the lyrics unlike the studio version which features a more harsher tone in her voice, she follows the opening line with "I know how to destroy a man without a weapon", keeping the innocent smile on her face with her soft vocals effortlessly running through the opening verse.
The tempo picks up by the second verse as Glamazon nods her head and closes her eyes, "Give me lipstick redder than the pool you lay in" she sings with now a lower tone. It isn't long until the innocent vocals have completely disappeared by the third verse, "Watch me lick my crimson red lips" she winks to the camera and runs her tongue over her lips for a moment, before following it with "And I'll watch you suck it up like a bitch". She runs her hands down the microphone stand and tilts her head back for the fourth verse, belting out the lines such as "Watch me burn all the memories I keep in my mind", "Watch me start a fucking fire, you call me a psycho", her vocals now noticably more aggressive and less cookie-cutter, ending the verse softly with "Call me a psycho again because that feels so damn good". She soon arrives to the final chorus, belting out the first few lines and then quietly singing "You bring me flowers to say you're sorry / And I'll lay them same flowers down on your grave", she closes her eyes, bows her head at the end and smiles.OOC: Yup, totally forgot about this until now lol. |
