The way we became to be one butt kicking group was a great story to tell our future children...

When we met we all had our own future plans, mine was to become a make-up artist but that's a story for a little later on. When we all found out we could sing we thought of how cool it would be if we started a new girl group just to see how popular we could become with the mix of different cultures with many different stories to tell. Our stories that we eventually changed into all our songs, we became closer as a band but also as best friends. With all of us meeting at school, our story really did start with friendship but with future plans that didn't involve being noticed by Little Mix and becoming a girl group.

While at school I had trouble figuring it out what to become, it was either between becoming a make-up artist or a hair stylist, either way it had to do with the head. I loved watching make-up videos and hair videos on YouTube and spent basically every inch of my money on make-up and hair products, it basically became my life.

Growing up with 2 older brothers, Finley and Alexander, in England, Bayswater to be specific. They were obsessed with playing football or soccer whatever you call it while I just wasn't. I was what every mother wanted, well I think that's what every mother wanted because that's what my mama wanted, pretty, into pretty clothes, heels, you know that kind of stuff, girly.

My Papa worked as a doctor while my Mama was a stay at home mum so my Mama and Papa had good pay but it was all spent on food, our education, my brothers sport equipment and my Mama spoiling the hell out of me. My parents weren't the glamourous or the sportiest or even musical, so who knows where I got my talent from.

Since I grew up in a very multicultural area I got along with mostly everyone at school. I wasn't really shy which was good I guess, I had heaps of friends and most of my teachers knew me which was a bonus for my grades. My first ever friend was a girl called Luana Rodriguez, she's still my best friend to this day, and she's my little Brazilian Fire Cracker! We basically told each other everything and liked the exact same things.

At school I did well at all my classes, my favourite class was Maths, I was a little nerd I know, but math was that one class everyone hated and I wanted to be very different to everyone so I sort of taught myself to like maths which actually made we pretty popular because I was smart, pretty crazy.

I moved to Australia when I was 16, so 2 years ago, with my brother, Alexander, 18, and Mama and Papa. We moved because my Papa was given a job with better pay so we moved. My older brother Finley stayed in England as he had started College plus he was old enough to live by himself. We moved into a small house 3 bedroom house in Glenroy, Melbourne. Australia was very different to England, it was brighter and the houses looked a very different, very different, plus it didn't snow which I found weird. My Mama started working as she started to get bored at home, plus she found the new move a big change for her so she worked in a café as a waitress which was awesome because she always snuck Alex and I some muffins and sweets!

When I started High School, it was nerve wrecking because you know, new country and you never knew how people would react to you. I had a couple girls come up to me and ask me to speak just to laugh at my accent which I found weird because it never happened in England. When I first met Lou, I was in Year 11 in 2014 at Glenroy College. She was still extremely pretty back then but she was an amazing for a first Australian best friend, an extra was that she was full Australian. We would hang out together in the library, she would tell me about her old friends who left the school to have a YouTube career and so she had lost her closet friends so I guess the new British Girl was the next best thing.

Lou eventually became friends with Maddie, she was the youngest in Year 11, and so she sort of hanged out with the Year 10's at the time. Maddie has honestly never grown since then but she was amazing with make-up so I of course had an instant draw to her. She basically taught me everything I know and I taught her everything she knows.

They were my 2 new best friends, and I still kept in contact with Luana. Eventually Luana, Lou and Maddie became great friends.

One day Maddie was having this cabin trip and she was allowed to invite some friends so of course Lou and I went, and then we got to meet Maddie's Year 10 friends, Andy and Beau

Let's just say we all became really close friends, Lou had never looked any happier after losing her other friends and became instant best friends with Beau, trust me we ship them more Lou and her fiance. On that same trip we all found out we had the same talent. To sing.

We all basically listened to each other sing in the shower.

And so we tried to sing a song together and let's just say it sounded like heaven! I was the one who suggested the YouTube channel and so we started a youtube channel.
