Pixie Lott - 11.50am
Pixie is an 18 year old singer and if you've been keeping up with Pixie's lively and occasionally rather deranged YouTube vidoe diaries you might have a fair idea of how the last couple of years have panned out, packed with songwriting sessions, nights out and gatecrashed parties!

Pixie as a young girl grew up in Kent. She found herself nicknamed Pixie at a young age (you can only call her by her real name if she's misbehaved), and who was frequently sugjected to her mum's preferred listening to Take That and Diana Ross. She bagged herself a rare scholarship for the stage school which let her pursue her singing and dancing dreams and opened doors to an oddly diverse range of opportunities, from West End appearances in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to recording with Pink Floyd's Roger Waters.

Pixie's first single, the catchy 'Mama Do' hit the spot. Her second single 'Boys and Girls' is due for release on 6 September. Pixie's first album 'Turn It Up; is due for release on Monday 14 September.

Jade Ewen - 2.00pm
Studying at Sylvia's is where Jade was able to broaden her performance potential. Music was always number one as she expanded her range from alto to soprano, and began learning to write her own songs. A stint in a girl group, a short-lived record deal and the opportunity to perform before 100million people as part of Eurovision has delivered Jade a wealth of opportunities and experiences.

Jade is a part-time painter who enjoys sketching, she's kept a diary every single day since the age of 12, she loves the TV show Heroes. For this ambitious, creative, driven artist, the gloves are off and she's ready to land the final blow. There's no doubt that her debut album will knock us all for six!

Some incidental, Mini facts for the inevitable Wikipedia entry: Frankee’s bored of Facebook. Britt fancies Lenny Kravitz ("so HOT it’s ridiculous"). Britt’s mum thinks she’s Madonna when she does the cleaning in the kitchen. Frankee’s the mature one ("only cos I’ve got to be"). Britt was chucked out of school for locking a French teacher in the stock room (“nobody liked French anyway”). Frankee’s favourite Spice Girl was Mel B. And Britt’s was Geri.

Together, Mini Viva are here to strut right into the hearts of the massive, giddy demographic that cares about great pop.
