MyBliss chats to Alexandra Burke!
If we've not told you before we'll say it again nice and loud, WE LOVE ALEXANDRA BURKE. Relationshiop dramas aside, Miss Burke has always been a tough cookie so after giving him a certain someone the red card and diving into her music, she's back to tell us how to deal with a broken heart, just who she would snog in 1D and who she would knight if she were queen for a day. Queen Alexandra? It has a certain ring to it...
Bliss - We're loving new single Let It Go and all that partying on the train in the vid. Have you ever partied hard to your own track?
Alexandra - (Pause) YES!
B - (Laughs)
A - I'm not going to lie to you. I have. Or more, that I turn it up when I hear it. I have turned songs down too (laughs).
B - What song do you turn up?
A - It was actually start without you. I remember hearing it for the first time in my car and turning it right up.
B - It is a tune. Looking forward to new album Heartbreak On Hold too. Let's say your best mate keeps telling you what a rotter her fella is. How would you tell her to put heartbreak on hold?
A - I'd tell her to talk it out and get advice from those closest to you. But if all else fails, always go with your gut. If your instincts are telling you to put heartbreak on hold, then go with your gut feelings.
B - Oooh, good advice. Do your mates always come to you for relationship advice?
A - Yeah, I am pretty much the agony aunt of the group. But I don't mind it, it's a good thing.
B - What's also a good thing is that we hear you're good mates with Niall from One Direction. So, if you had to snog any member of the group, would it be him?
A - Had to?
B - Yeah, because that would be a really hard task.
A - (squeals) Errr... I would snog them all! I mean, why not? Don't make that your headline by the way.
B - (laughs) Alexandra Burke snogs all of 1D - EXCLUSIVE!
A - (laughs) I don't want any 1D fans hating me... "Oi Burke, stay away."
B - Don't go messing with the fans.
A - Listen! Those 1D, JBiebs and JLS followers do not muck around. To be honest, they are seriously loyal which makes them great fans.
B - Have you ever had any scary fan moments?
A - Come to think of it, I had a fan letter sent to my house once and I had no idea how they got my address. They were asking me really random questions like, "What are your hobbies?" "What do you like to do?" " Can we hook up?"
B - Yeah, just a bit weird. Have you ever considered dating a really hot fan?
A - Nah! I don't know how smart that is. I mean, maybe if they pretended they were not a fan...
B - Yeah, but then you would go to their house one day and discover a shrine dedicated to you.
A - Yeah, that would be a bit tricky...
B - OK, here's something a lot less tricky. All men have been banished to a special island! If there was one thing you missed about them what would it be?
A - I would just miss my dad and brothers.
B - So no particular traits?
A - No, just people and it would be them. I'm really close to my family!
B - So with the Diamond Jubilee coming up, we want to know if you were queen, who would you have knighted?
A - Well it wouldn't be a person, it would be a dog. It would be my little dog Alfie. Sir Alfie Burke.
B - Awww. For services to being the best pet ever.
A - He is the best pet ever. He's looking at me right now, laying on the sofa. Just chilling.
B - Very cute. So, who would you have banished to the dungeons?
A - Anyone in the world?
B - Yep, anyone you want!
A - I would probably send.... oooh, I don't know.
B - Really? No-one?
A - Actually, I would send anyone who makes people unhappy in the world. If it's proved that you've made someone really happy, then you'll go straight to the dungeons.
And on that note, cheating boyfriends beware...
