1. So Bethany how has it been recently working in the music industry?
Well where should I begin, so much has happened working in the studio its quite stressful but yet so
fun and enjoyable not to mention the most amazing and talented artists I have met, I would just like to
say a huge thank you to them as I wouldn’t be anywhere without them, and we wouldn’t have been
able to create such a fab album. Anyway my team and I have finished recording my album ‘Mirrors’
about 5 months ago in November which was pretty amazing and everyone felt so proud. But honestly
it has been pretty jam packed with all these music awards and photo shoots and all the talk shows I’ve
been on promoting the album on, giving exclusives about it, but I have to say I love every minute of
it, and in wouldn’t trade my life for anything as my dream of being a well-known artist is coming
true.
Wow Bethany your work sounds truly inspirational do you have any advice for the music artists out
there?
Yeah of course I have advice for everyone aspiring to be a music artists out there. Firstly I would say
every opportunity you get to do anything music orientated whether it’s just something small and your
just in the background helping, still do it because it gives you experience and practise which might
help you in the future when you start producing music. Also getting a manger could help you find the
music opportunities you need but it is still easily possible to do it on your own. However I will let you
in a big secret of mine too, my moto that has got me where I am today is… keeping moving forward.
I’ve followed this the whole way through my life, and it means even if you create a song and its not a
success,that doesn’t mean you’re not good enough, and even though it hurt when you got bumped
back a few steps,you shouldn’t give up, you shouldn’t doubt yourself, you should just keep moving
forward. It can be hard to move forward afterwards,but if you keep following your dream,
you will achieve it. If my dream came true then it’s more than possible for all of yours too come true
as well. Also in life people don’t focus on the negative things that happen to you for example if you
have created hundreds of singles as aspiring music artists but none of them were a hit, but then one
day you create one and it becomes a hit in the top charts, that’s all people focus on, they don’t look in
the past and see how many songs you have failed, they look at how many you have succeeded and
focus on how many more songs there will be to come. So just keep moving forward.
My goodness Bethany you speak wise words truly inspiring to everyone out there, so my question for
you Bethany is if you keep moving forward, where do you hope to end up?
*laughs* well yes my own advise that’s a tricky one as I’m very happy and please where I am today,
and I wouldn’t want to change a thing but I guess if I had to answer this question I would say I would
just like to keep making more albums like ‘mirrors’ and be a role model for aspiring music artists out
there. I would want to tell my story of my dream coming true to help people not to doubt themselves
and keep moving forward until one day they succeed.
Bethany I never realised how inspirational and down to earth you are, your family must be so proud.
Anyway moving on from your successfulcareer,how’s your social life going, has any a boy or maybe
another artist caught your eye, or maybe a artists you have been working alongside with*laughs*
*winks*?
*laughs* well if you’re talking about Oscar Wild who featured in a song on my album ‘mirrors’ then
I’m sorry to say that no there actually isn’t anything between us, I know that not what you wanted to
hear considering of all the fake rumours about us both but Oscar and I are like best friends working
together he is such a laugh and hilarious to be around but there’s nothing more between us, sorry.
Oh Bethany, that is not what I wanted to hear. *sighs* but a little birdy told me there could be a new
upcoming Album you could be featuring in quiet a lot, is that true?
Well I don’t know where you heard that or who from, but I guess it is true, there will be a few
surprises to come throughout the New Year,which I know you and the audience will be happy
about!!!
2. Oh my God, Bethany you have made us very excited. But moving on as were running out of time.
Now tell me, which person in your life is your biggest inspiration in helping you succeed in your
music career?
hmmm, that’s a rather tricky one so many people in my life inspire me, but I would have to go
with my mother and father because they are the two people that have supported me throughout my
life through my ups and downs, from when I first starting singing. And when I continuously created
songs which were never hits multiple times in a row, and each time I failed and felt as if I wanted to
give up, my parents were the people who were there to pick me up and brush me off and tell me to
keep going and keep moving forward. Because if you truly want something you should never give up,
whether that is something small or big, if you keep going at it you will succeed,like look where I am
today and where I have got too. I would never dream of getting this far in life, and where I am today.
So I am truly grateful for everyone who has supported me and I would like to give them a huge
thanks.
Oh Bethany, that’s so moving, and I would just like to say a massive thank you for coming in and letting
me interview you, you have truly moved me with some of your stories and advice and I hope the rest of
your career and life goes well, and I wish you the best for the future with you new album ‘mirrors’ and the
many more to come, and I am positive you would have inspired many aspiring young music artists out in
the world and given them unforgettable advice that they should never give up and even when they are
pushed down they should always get up, brush themselves off and keeping moving forward because one
day they will succeed.
Oh my goodness, no thank you so much for having me, I’m glad I could help and tell me stories, I only
hope they can help other young music artists to see that that can achieve what they want to achieve at as
long as they keep trying, and to be completely honest you have helped me realise important things in my
life too, so thank you, and thank you to the audience for being supportive!
And don’t forget to pre-order ‘mirrors’ which comes out February 8th
! Thank you see you soon…
