Jenny Frost, Atomic Kitten. 5 million records for the suits, plenty of pop tunes for the ladies, three hot girls for the boys, their own racing teams and a BHS clothing line for the kids. A roaring global success in a market stuffed with failures, a formula that worked so well they could take a break from it knowing they had a guaranteed platform for solo success.
After a brief stab at stardom with girl band Precious, Jenny spent three and a half years at the very top with the Kittens before all 3 took a break to go it alone. ‘We were all a bit in shock when Tash decided to stop to have her babies but secretly I think we all wanted to do our own thing at some stage,’ says Jen. ‘I love everything about Atomic Kitten, but I was definitely ready to sing my own songs and write for me. We still gig occasionally (most recently their biggest show to date for Nokia on New Year’s Eve 2006/7 in Hong Kong) and we meet up all the time so it’s the best of both worlds.
Jenny’s been non stop busy with her TV commitments, DJ tours, solo gigs and her number 1 club single “Crash Landing†but remember that she never was your stereo typical pop princess. Yes, she had Topshop and every other high street store clawing at her dressing room door, but equally excited about clothing her were Christian Dior and Dolce & Gabanna – not people to give their blessing lightly. In fact, fashionistas everywhere knew that Jenny had what it took to be a leading lady in the industry. That’s why Premier modelling agency (home to Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington) snapped her up and Vogue, InStyle and Tatler all booked her for fashion shoots. Jen has just recorded her debut single for a leading German label and it is scheduled to hit our airwaves again in spring ‘07.
Although she’s been the face (and body) of so many fashion shoots, let’s not forget she’s still the same girl we all know so well. Effortlessly stylish, naturally friendly and always the Kitten to have her band mates giggling, Jen’s as excited at the prospect of bouncing back into the pages of the biggest pop magazines as she is about shimmying into her Marc Jacobs shoes for the grown ups.
Jenny is now enjoying life with her newborn son Casper, who was born just this past October. Life as a mum as been treating her well!
