1. Ari Shay got the
Pop?
After going viral on the internet with just one song, written by her,
what is Ari Shay planning to do next?
A ri Shay, an ordinary teenage girl who
went viral on the internet in early December 2012.
Like Pop star Justin Bieber, who found fame on
the internet, Ari Shay went viral on YouTube,
after reaching millions of views and number 1 on
most viewed. If you haven’t heard of her, this girl
blew everyone’s mind with her beautiful voice
who has a passion for singing, being influenced by
family and friends, she posted a video of herself
singing a song she had wrote herself, inspire by
Rita Ora. We caught up with Ari after she had Ari Shay, in her first professional
performed with the superstar Jessie J, leaving the photo shoot.
crowd going wild and wanting more. Jessie J saw
a lot of potential in Ari and fell in love with her charisma and as an artist herself,
Jessie J wanted to help her pursue a career in singing and song writing, ‘She has an
amazing voice and the perfect personality, she deserves to be out there, she’s
someone young girls can relate to.’ Catching up with Ari backstage, she told us about
the record label she had been signed to; ‘This is all so new to me, I remember when
the manager from Jupiter Records called me, I was ecstatic; I really didn’t think my
video would go viral.’ Being only 17, this had an effect on her education as she was
currently in the process of her a-levels, here’s what she said: ‘I wouldn’t let go of my

2. education, just in case things go wrong or don’t work out, I’ll have a backup plan,
plus I think my parents would like for me to stay education at least till a levels if
things go well!’ This ambitious teenager looks like she has everything covered but,
what have others got to say about this? There has been a lot of talk about Ari
questioning whether or not she’ll make it. Is she ready for this? If successful like
other artist, will she be able to handle the press? Or is she just a one hit wonder? I
guess time will tell. We also caught up with, Timothy Jones, the manager of Jupiter
Records, who said was ‘thrilled’ to have signed her before anyone else gave her
offers, since she was young. He also said she had the perfect persona that most young
girls looked up to as a role model and as a teenager herself. When asked what plans
he had for her, he replied; ‘Well we’ve already started working on some songs for her
and we’re hoping something will be out there for fans and supporters within the next
few weeks or possibly a month.’ So far it looks good for the young superstar, maybe
in a year or so, she’ll be a pop icon like Taylor Swift, Rita Ora and many others.
