Singer Ms Alicia Angel Confess to London Fashion Police

1)Please tell us who you are and what you do for those not familiar with you?

I'm Alicia Angel and I am a singer/songwriter based out of New York. I write as an individual and also as part of a songwriters team with my good friend Jay Max.

2)There are so many singers out there what makes you different?

Well, I'm myself and they are themselves- for the most part. That's it. You be the judge!

3)What word best describe you as a person?

I think I'd have to go with honest. Sometimes my honesty gets me into trouble but it's who I am and that's a risk I'll continue to take. My mother always said I wouldn't lie for Jesus Christ- she is absolutely right!

4)Are you single/married/relationship/divorce?

I'm in a relationship with my boyfriend of 3 years. For the record, he is the cutest thing I've ever seen in my life.

5)Name one thing you just can't leave home without?

My phone! I feel lost without it. I have to constantly be connected.

6)How can someone from the other side of the world learn more about you and listen to your music?

They can check out www.soundcloud.com/angel2themax

7)If you could sing a song with 3 people who would it be and why?

8)What attracts you to someone?

Their spirit. Looks can be alluring but the reality is they eventually fade. When I find a spark in someone- that's what I connect with and what makes me want to be around them.

9)What do you love most when dancing with someone?

The intimacy. The way you have to be so in touch with that person's every movement.

10)If we was a fly on your bedroom wall what would we be shock to see?

I don't kiss and tell.

11)What music would have you running to the dance floor to shake that booty?

Certain Michael Jackson songs and of course most songs by Beyonce. I may, or may not, sometimes dance in the mirror like beyonce in booty shorts. I can neither confirm nor deny that at this time.

12)Describe what beauty is in your own words?

Beauty is an inner light we all have. Some of us can't see our own but it's there in all of us

13)If you was given 2 tickets to attend any event which 2 events would you go to?

Prince in concert and probably Maria Carey even though I've seen her perform a million times. She's such an inspiration to me!

13)What advice do you have for anyone who want's to get into the industry?

First, you have to absolutely love what you're doing so much that you'd be willing to do nearly nothing else but that with your time. If that passion is not there it will show in your work itself and also in your work ethic. You have to be willing to hear "No" a hundred times before you get a "Yes". If that's all there, really educate yourself about the business and study the people who are in the position you aspire to be in.

14)What do you think of the Fashion Police News Blog?

I think it's fierce! I read every interview. Amazing work, Catwalk Professor!

I can't pick only 3! I have several really close friends whom I'd do anything for.

17)What are 4 things men do that makes you mad?

Some men lie for no reason at all and that really gets to me. Otherwise, not a fan at all of the catcalls as I walk down the street. Respect is of the utmost importance to me. That's pretty much it.

18)What perfume are you now wearing?

Beyonce heat. It was a Christmas gift. I love it!

19)Describe your Fashion sense?

I like to keep it classy, yet sexy and artsy at the same time. Even if I'm wearing jeans, I like to wear a top and shoes that are sexy and make a unique statement that doesn't scream desperate for attention.

20)What is more sexy a man in BOXERS......BIKINI BRIEFS..........THONG?

Boxers or boxer briefs.

21)Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

I see myself creating music that really reaches people. I see myself performing and giving back through charities that work to end violence against women. Basically, what I'm doing now, just on a much larger scale. I'd also like to win a Grammy some day.

22)What are 4 fashion tips you live by?

1. Always have a killer pair of stilettos on hand for an emergency glam situation.

24)Any last words to our many blog readers around the world?

25)What are your best assets?

I'd say my personality. No, really! And I think others would agree but I also get a lot of compliments on my hair so I guess we can include that.

Top Photographer Mr Andy Simon tells it all to the Fashion Police

My Name is Andy Simon, I’m from Walsall in the West Midlands, and I am the photographic mastermind behind Darkslide Photography. I specialise in Alternative fashion, Pin –up and creative horror photography. I mostly shoot on location rather than a studio and like to think of myself as an environmental photographer, adapting the location to suit the model and the theme of the shoot.  I also co run the Pin-up for Heroes project, which raises money for the Help for Heroes charity and has to date raised over £10,000 for the cause.  

2)There are so many photographers out there what make you different from them?

Hard to say, but i think its a combination of my enthusiasm for my work, as well as having a quirky eye when it comes to my style of photography. Although it is a very niche area to specialise in, the Alt scene has so much to offer and is such a vibrant community.

3)What word best describe you as a person?

Eclectic!

4)What is one thing you can't leave home without?

My Galaxy S Android phone. It is literally a physical extension of myself. I use it for networking, surfing, inspiration, and of course taking photos with! I am a big believer in ‘The best camera is the one that is with you’ and even though i have my pro kit at home, having a phone able to capture a moment in time wherever you are is invaluable to me.

5)If you had the chance to do a shoot with 3 people of your choice who would it be and why?

Tough one! There are so many amazing models out there already, and people who i have shot in the past i would love to work with again, but 3 off the top of my head at the moment would be Karen Gilliam (of Doctor who fame) Charlotte Holmes (runner up in the 2010 Britain’s next top model) and last but not least, Kitty Liquor, an up and coming burlesque performer and pin-up model.

6)What makes a model model when taking pictures?

A good model is someone who is expressive and confident with themselves, knows their own body and how to hold a pose. But most importantly, someone who has a good working attitude!

7)Describe your fashion sense?

Stuck firmly in 1992, deep in the grunge era.

8)Are you married/single/divorced/relationship?

Married

Anything from a bit of Pearl Jam, to (cringe) Britany Spears.

10)What attract you to someone?

Eyes.

11)What are a few things women do that makes you mad?

Not just for women, but people who lack confidence in themselves.

12)If we was a fly on your bedroom wall what would we be shock to see?

Probably my comic book collection, i am a total geek when it comes to comics!

13)If the fashion police was to have dinner at your home what would you prepare?

Full on home made stew, simmered for around 8 hours so the meat literally melts in your mouth.

14)What do you love most when dancing with someone?

That someone is willing to dance with me is a good start, as I am about as co-ordinated as a drunken yak!

Boxers, with one leg always kicked out the side of the blanket.

16)If you was given 2 tickets to attend any event which 2 would you attend?

Follow me on facebook on www.facebook.com/darkslidephoto or visit my website www.darkslidephotography.co.uk regularly as I update often with new projects and images. Or of course, they could just ask, i like to think i am quite an approachable person.

18)What makes someone photogenic?

I think anyone can be photogenic, it is how they are shot that makes a photo, pose and lighting make a difference true, but trying to show an individual’s real personality is the true test of a photographer.

19)If you had the chance to whisper something really nice into the fashion police ears what would you say?

‘Please be gentle with me’

20)What do you think of men who teaches women to walk the runway?

I’m all for it, i think men can be a bit more subjective and impartial when it comes to giving advice.

21)Where do you get your inspiration from?

Everywhere! I can be walking down a street, see a shadow or a glimpse of light, and that’s all that’s needed to give a spark of an idea. But anything from comics, to fashion magazines of the 50’s and 60’s to more contemporary photographers who inspire me on a daily basis.

Mr G, Mr B, the other Mr B and Mr C.
