She said in an interview a month ago that she is not focusing or recording on solo music right now, as she is indeed building up a reputation as TV presenter, because that is was she always wanted to do.

To be fair, she is better at singing.

Which I found weird because she wanted to be a popstar as child, it failed, and then she had the chance to become a TV presenter (and she did, for children, but still.) but she clearly wanted to pursue a solo career all these years ago again otherwise she wouldn't have been in The Saturdays.

I think she just got a bit disgusted by the industry, how it works, the record deals and the pressure from the label. I reckon it's much easier to be a TV presenter.

She is more business minded, she knows she can get more profit out of fashion and presenting then out of a solo career right now. She obviously not following her dream as much as she wants us to believe.

But I have to go with whatever the f*** she says I guess. They always say a bunch a f***ery sometimes.

Pretty much yes.

It's also safer. Unless she makes a gigantic mistake while presenting, she will probably always keep on getting jobs. Whereas she could do no wrong while being a popstar, but if some radio executive just doesn't like her face or the song, thus do not playlist it, well it can quickly be over for her.

Mollie's giving it a go because despite of short-comings in terms of voice, she's always been extremely music-driven (didn't she have the best grades out of all of them, and also a potentially great future in skying, but she just let all of that down because what she always wanted to do was be a popstar? Plus the fact she knows how to play guitar and has been shown to be competent in songwriting). But you know the second she fails/flops, she will be back to fashion/modelling things.

Plus, in terms of Roch, if she ever does decide to dive back into music, she is building up a hefty list of contacts she can use for promo with her current TV hosting :cheer:

School wise? I think Una was the only one who went to university to be a primary teacher (which is a fairly prestige course here in Ireland) but Mollie always does come across as bright and articulate.
