AhmedBakhsh.com: Girlicious first made a splash on the scene in 2008 with their debut single, “Like Me”, which hit #4 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart. The group featured Chrystina Sayers, Natalie Meija, Nichole Cordova and Tiffanie Anderson, whom were chosen for the group via a reality show by Robin Antin, creator of the Pussycat Dolls and the Paradiso Girls. With their undeniable charm, catchy choruses, and energetic live performances and videos, Girlicious proved to be quite successful, especially in Canada where their self-titled debut album hitting #2 on the charts. They also went on tour with the Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears. Fast forward to 2010. Even though they’re now one member short (Tiffanie is no longer part of the group), they’re better than ever. Their infectious new single, “2 in the Morning,” hit iTunes today, so go buy it! Their sophomore album, Rebuilt, is due in stores this November. I had the pleasure of interviewing member, Chrystina Sayers, about her favorite songs off the new album and meeting Britney Spears, so click “Read More” for the interview!

Ahmed Bakhsh: Who, or what, inspires you?
Chrystina Sayers: Everything inspires me from famous people to everyday people.

AB: What do you think of the media’s constant scrutiny towards Lindsay Lohan and other similar names?
CS: I think its a good and bad thing for Lindsay and people like her. I say its a good thing because it shows everyone what not to do when you reach a level of success but its a bad thing because for Lindsay, and people like her who have a public “drug addiction”, it only feeds fuel to their fire. While the media is trying to expose these celebrities for their bad behavior, I believe it does the celeb no good. Especially the celebs who are super super famous. I honestly think it would be best if the media focused on nothing but the positive things celebs did. If this happened, I believe there would be less celebs trying to “act out” in a negative way and they would be more focused on their career then fame.

AB: The debut album was more urban. You girls are going for a poppier/electro-ish sound this time around. Why?
CS: I think the girls and I went for a more popish/electro/mainstream sound this time around for a few reasons. One, we wanted to try something new! Also, we have wrote a quite a bit on this album so it truly comes from our heart and we have all be inspired by pop mainstream music so we decided to take a crack at it! I think the girls and I have a pretty solid album and can’t wait for everyone to here it!

AB: When will Rebuilt [the new album] come out?
CS: Our album will be releasing around November.

AB: Are there any concrete plans for promotion across Europe?
CS: We are slowly prepping and planning our debut for all the Europeans! I can’t give any dates but definitely soon because it’s about time!
