![]() What have you been up to since we last saw you at the Tween Summit? I was a Judge on Miss America and I've done a lot of cool charity events and performances and I have a new single coming out. I have a new exciting project I can't tell you about, but it's really exciting! I also have a new song and have done LA shows. What made you want to come to the Town Hall meeting? I love being close to girls and doing intimate interviews (like this one) and bringing my guitar along. Plus I live in Cali! What advice do you have for girls who want to become a singer? 1st- be prepared to work hard 2nd- know who you are, don't be a copycat. Find your own voice. 3- Be patient, waiting is part of the experience. How has your life changed since American Idol? How has it not changed? I'm busier, and I have new and great experiences. It's awesome to do music for a living and I meet amazing people and I'm really appreciative for the things that haven't changed like my closeness to my family. Do you have any new songs that you've written since High Hopes and Heartbreak came out? Yes, it's called change but the title may change. What's one fashion item you can't live without? Lately my blazer or scarf or hat. Name some songs you're going to sing for the AK girls today: Radio Radio- because it's fun and upbeat. California And a cover of Miley's The Climb When you're not singing what are you doing? I work most of the time but when I don't I spend time with family and friends, I shop, listen to music, and sometimes watch TV. posted at 02:34PM PST |
![]() I caught up with Madison at the Town Hall Meeting yesterday in Los Angeles. She was super sweet and wore her AK celebrity tee (i'll post a picture later) and these awesome rhinestone jeans- they were so sick, literally star-studded! Ki: Do you sing? Madison Hill: Yes, I do music. I'm actually recording my first album- it should be out by the end of the year! *(Note: All the AK girls got a little sample of her singing with a CD of her first 3 songs which came in everyones goody bags!)* Ki: What made you want to come to the Allykatzz Town Hall Meeting? Madison: Two weeks ago I was at a Kids Helping Kids event profiting Haiti and that event contacted me about this event. So, I jumped on board because I love helping charities. Ki: So you're Miss Missouri Jr. Teen. How was the pageant and what does your title entail? Madison: It was incredible. My sister and I went together. My whole family got involved. I love meeting really cool people and being a role model. I also get to travel a lot. Ki: What's one item of clothing that you can't live without? Madison: holey jeans (distressed). I have one old pair I wear all the time. I've had it forever, but I love 'em so I won't get rid of them. Ki: What's your favorite thing to do? Madison: Well I sing, dance and act. I also go see the latest movies a lot. I have a friend who gets me free tickets because he works at a theatre so we go do that a lot. posted at 08:32AM PST |

![]() Megan is part of Team Marine. She spreads awareness about single use plastic (like using a bottle and then throwing it out) and the effects on the Ocean/environment. She collected bottle caps on the beach and out of storm drains with her other Team Marine Club High School friends and created the outfit with all of them to help show the importance of recycling. She's 18 years old and making a difference! posted at 02:07PM PST |
