Hey! So please introduce yourselves.
Hi, I’m Destinee, I’m Paris and I’m Ariel, and we’re the CliqueGirlz.
What got you into music?
Destinee: Music has always been in our blood, and we always enjoyed singing and dancing. We just felt so passionate about it, and it was something we just really wanted to do, so we followed our dreams and here we are! Lol!
Do you write your own songs?
Paris: We’ve actually recorded 90 songs written by song writers and producers, but half way through the recording process we realized we were able to write our own songs so lately we have been writing a lot and actually I just recently wrote a song called “’Brag Brag Brag” which I wrote & co produced with Grammy award winning producer Rodney Jerkins.
What’s your inspiration?
Ariel: Everyday life! Anything that we go through comes out through our songs! When it comes to fashion, we are inspired by many different artists like Lady GaGa, (Who is our record label mate/4th Clique Girl, as she says) Gwen Stefani, (Also Record Label mate) and so many more!
Do you prefer writing, recording or performing?
Destinee: That’s such a hard question, we love expressing our feelings through writing, and we have so much fun recording, and the stage is our 2nd home!

Paris: Our best performance was at a City of Hope event honouring Doug Morris. We performed with Mariah Carey, Maroon 5, Stevie Nicks, Lionel Richie, Rihanna, and so many more!
Have you ever had any embarrassing moments on stage?
Ariel: Omg! It was so embarrassing… I ripped my pants at the beginning of our show! I didn’t realise they were ripped until I got off stage, but I shook it off.
Do you have any pre-gig rituals?
