Kate's L.A. Story

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

Whilst we’re in preparation for our 3rd and last Quarterfinal, we thought we’d remind the 12 talented lot what they could be winning at the end of this month. And who better to demonstrate this then our lovely Quarterfinal 2 winner Katem3.

Kate travelled to the “home of celebrity,” Los Angeles, last month where she worked alongside producers and songwriters Mark Maxwell, Asia ‘Persuasia‘ Whiteacre and Ted Bruner, who has worked with the likes of Katy Perry, Selena Gomez and Miley Cyrus!

We caught up with Kate the other day and she said: “It was fantastic. Really loved every minute of it. It’s so much bigger and more colourful there. I got back into Paddington and saw all the grey buildings, train tracks, clouds and angry people and was like…whoa, cheer up England! It was amazing working with those guys and pulling out songs everyday.” We’re definitely looking forward to hearing Kate’s brand new tracks. We can’t wait!

You can catch up with all the latest info on her time in LA by following Kate’s Twitter feed or you could just watch her brilliant video diary she made while she was out there.

(Oh yeh, just one more thing, HAPPY BIRTHDAY KATE!)

True Belieber

Monday, March 8th, 2010

There are two things we love here at 1Click. That’s Twitter and Justin Bieber. “Why?” We hear you ask. We love tweeting! We tweet all day, every day about things that we’re doing and sometimes (most of the time) things that are completely irrelevant. And Justin, well it’s no wonder really, he became famous through the 1Click way! Justin began uploading his performance videos onto YouTube a couple of years ago and became a sensation! So, when the two combine, we just can’t contain our excitement.

Our video parody of the original “3 year old crying over Justin Bieber” caught Justin’s attention on Friday and he enjoyed it so much that he decided to tweet it! He even posted it on his Facebook. So, if you haven’t seen it yet then, WHY NOT?! Watch it now, at once!

The Drama Unfolds. . .

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

With Boot Camp being a not-so-distant memory now, it was a case of “business as usual” as we all arrived back at the 1Click Towers today.

Yesterday was another exciting and busy day for three of our Quarterfinalists as JUiCE, Hollie McKinlay and Nena Kubu stepped inside Stevie Lange’s Studios. It was a long day of vocal warm-ups, breathing exercises and hitting the right notes as each competitor was put through their paces by Stevie and her team of producers.

And let us not forget our other Quarterfinalists! Last week we took Boot Camp to them as 1Click favourite, Louise Stokes, had a one-to-one session with stand-up comedian Gary Delaney in her hometown of Birmingham, whilst Munks had lessons with Tae Kwon Do instructor, Alan Sparks in York.

You can catch up with all the latest news and see our photos from Boot Camp on our Facebook Page. We’ll leave you with some behind-the-scenes footage from the last couple of days; watch as the “drama” unfolds!

Music Boot Camp: Day 1

Monday, March 1st, 2010

We’re here at Boot Camp 3 and what a busy day it has been so far.

Ayda, KKV91, The Angel of Music and Sarah Duce all rolled up to Stevie Lange’s Studios bright and early this morning to get their sessions underway. The four girls started off with a group session with Star Coach Stevie, followed by an individual session to improve on their performances which are currently being recorded now. We are all sitting in the Green Room listening to each performer belt out their chosen tracks. We won’t give it away just yet, you’ll have to wait and see what our competitors have delivered when our 3rd Quarterfinal begins at the end of this month.

We will be updating you soon with some behind-the-scenes footage from Boot Camp. For now, you can follow all the latest news on our Twitter feed. You can also @1Click2Fame us with any questions or messages you have for our Quarterfinalists. Let us know!

Tomorrow will be the 2nd day of the Music Boot Camp. Watch this space as Nena Kubu, JUiCE and Hollie McKinlay have their turn inside the studio…

Quarterfinal 3 Commences

Friday, February 26th, 2010

We’ve hit a double milestone here at 1Click. Not only has our last monthly final finished today but we are officially launching our 3rd and last Quarterfinal also. Yes, we’re all pretty excited here as the tension and excitement builds towards Boot Camp and the competition. Over the last 3 months, you have been voting for your favourite acts in the hope of seeing them reach their goal of winning the Monthly Finals, meeting the 1Click2Fame Star Coaches and competing for a whopping £25k sponsorship prize.

Who are these rising stars? Well, we’re glad you asked…

DECEMBER

First to make it to Quarterfinal 3 were December’s winners; trickster Munks, Pod Princess Sarah Duce and her with the “many faces,” Louise Stokes.

JANUARY

January’s Top 3 were singing sensation KKV91, celebrity spoofers Him and Me TV and the all-talented Hollie McKinlay.

And now let’s introduce you to this month’s finalists. Fresh from battling out in February’s Finals are…

JUiCE – This pop band made their way to the top of the chart with their brilliant cover of Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance.” They even created their own mini campaign by making their own appeal video.

The Angel of Music – Poppy has the voice of an angel so we feel the name is very fitting.

Nena Kubu – This 5-piece band from Doncaster impressed the judges with their mix of modern dance music and 80’s popular music.

The final 3 to make it to the Quarterfinals are the Wildcards as chosen by our Star Coaches. They are the amazingly talented Ayda, the girl with the moves B-Girl Lyra and Football Freestyler, AR.

WILDCARDS

Remember these faces, as you will be seeing a lot more of them over the next few weeks, as we prepare for Quarterfinal 3. But first, it’s Boot Camp, where our performers will be giving their all to win your votes. For all the behind-the-scenes action and excitement, keep watching this space…

Behind the Scenes with Euphoria Audio

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Quarterfinal 1 winners, Euphoria Audio, have been busy touring up and down the country over the last couple of months. We all know what it’s like. These crazy rock bands with their crazy schedules, that’s just how they roll.

However, the boys still managed to find time to travel to London to shoot their debut music video for their awesome track, “Gravity,” and gave us an exclusive sneaky behind-the-scenes peek of what to expect.

Stay tuned for the official video, coming soon…

Tom's Vlog: Giant Balls and Itchy Gramophones

Friday, February 19th, 2010

We’ve heard of some strange phobias in our time. “Pogonophobia” the fear of beards, “genuphobia” the fear of knees, or even the fear of long words, commonly known as “hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia” (seriously, google it!)

But have you ever heard of an irrational fear of balls? Neither had we until we watched Tom’s 6th Video Blog. He never ceases to amaze us!

This week Tom discusses the latest music to hit the charts from ‘Itchy Gramophone,’ how 3 household items can be combined to create a super product and maybe even give you a couple of new phobias to worry about (stay away from blankets and mirrors!) Confused? You will be!

February's Final is here!

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

This month’s Final is slightly different from all of the other finals we’ve had. The reason for this is because it is the LAST monthly final before we go into our LAST Quarterfinal before we hold our Annual Grand Final! Yes, it’s pretty exciting times here and with Bootcamp plans already underway, 3 more competitors will have the chance to be put through their paces to propel them to the next stage on their road to fame, not to mention a professional video shoot too.

So here are the Final 12 for February, as voted by you lovely lot:

Stephen Cullis – Stephen recently joined 1Click2Fame and has shot up the charts almost overnight. His self-penned song “Rainbows” has proved to be very popular with our judges on the site.

JUiCE – This 4-piece band from Preston say that their music is influenced by Busted, McFly and Paramore. Their upbeat sounds are sure to get your feet tapping and maybe some mouses clicking too!

Also joining these 2 are the all-time favourites and contenders from this quarter; Hollie McKinlay, The Angel of Music, Sarah Duce, Nena Kubu, The Many Faces of Louise Stokes, KKV91 and Thea Kate. The Wildcard Choices, as chosen by our Star Coaches, are The Management, Soul Mover and Kyle Newton.

So there we have it. We’ll leave it up to you to decide who you want to vote for! Voting ends this Thursday, so get clicking and you could change someone’s life. Click here for the chart page and to cast your vote.

Web site story

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

It’s that time again where we all gather round and take a little trip down memory lane. Remember when you were in Primary School and had ‘Carpet Time’ where your teacher would read you a nice story or make you watch old episodes of ‘Dr. Who’? Well, 1Click friend, think of this as our carpet time…well, it’s sort of a virtual carpet time but you get the idea.

We’ve had a rummage through our archives and came across this one. We received a text from T-Mobile back in May telling us to turn up at Trafalgar Square in London and after their brilliant “flashmob-like” advert, we had to see what all the fuss was about. With flipcam in hand, Thierry went to find out what was going down…
