At the BOP and Tiger Beat offices, it’s never a dull day! Yesterday, girl group Cimorelli stopped by. The six sisters in Cimorelli are well-known for their awesome videos on Youtube. We got the chance to talk to them about their music and celeb crushes, and they even gave us a private performance of a cover of Taio Cruz’s hit song “Dynamite”!
BOP & Tiger Beat: Whose idea was it to put your videos on Youtube?
Christina: We had already been singing together forever and performed in tons of stuff. Then, one day Catherine said, “We should put a video on Youtube where people do covers!†I was like, “That sounds terrifying!†Soon after, Miley Cyrus’ song “Party in the USA†was leaked and we were like, “We have to put this up, everyone is gonna search for it after the Teen Choice Awards!†We recorded it a capella and put it up. We didn’t even know it that well! I would go off on the side and read lyrics in between takes because it was so brand new! Overnight we got over 20,000 views and we were shocked! It’s been building since then and now we have 85.000 views on our newest video!
B&TB: How would you describe your musical style?
Christina: Very pop! Pop with a few influences, like rap, soul and urban influences. It’s very true to who we are!
B&TB: Who is your celeb crush?
Lisa: James Maslow from Big Time Rush!
Lauren: Cody Simpson! Dani is obsessed with Big Time Rush!
Dani: We met them on the beach!
Christina: I don’t have one but if I had to pick one it would be Channing Tatum because he reminds me a lot of my boyfriend.
Dani: Carlos from Big Time Rush! He has an amazing voice.
Katherine: I don’t wanna be a trend follower but Kendall from Big Time Rush!
Amy: I do like Big Time Rush a lot, I do especially like Logan, but I do like David Henrie a lot too!
