Rare Diva: A Little To Late JojoUnlike a typical pop diva, teenage singing sensation Jojo ? who has a huge hit with single, too little to late jojo, travels with no bodyguards, no army of makeup artists and analysts, and no hangers on.
Instead, she goes on the road with a relatively small entourage comprising of no less than three people ? a publicist, a friend, and her mother.
Though JoJo?s celebrity is growing by the day with Jojo a little to late making waves at the charts, she and her family are trying their best to make sure the 15-year old singer doesn?t get snared by fame?s headlights, like a lot of young starlets.
An only child, she lives with her parents outside of Boston, and usually travels with a teenage friend in tow, along with her mom, to keep her company when she?s on the road for work.
Jojo made her debut on the pop scene when she was just 13 years old making waves with a booming soulful voice that recalled Christina Aguilera. Her first album helped jumpstart Jojo?s acting career (she costarred with Robin Williams in this year?s family comedy ?RV? and in ?Aquamarine.?).
With her second album, ?The High Road,? Jojo reveals more mature vocals in her jojo too late track, although the youngster insists she hasn?t grown up that much.
Looking back, Jojo takes us back to the time when she first recorded her first album when she was just 12.
?I was just so excited through the whole thing. Everything was new to me, everything was just great and beautiful, and I didn?t see some of the behind-the-scenes things that now I see, because I do know a little bit more about this industry,? Jojo said.
Apart from the tiny entourage, Jojo have lots of things uncommon to other pop divas, particularly on what she wears, which she stressed as ?sexy is not my style, it?s not who I am and what I represent.? Hence a bad jojo site would never exist.
?If I show a little bit of plunging neckline, I?m not going to do a really really short skirt or some booty-shorts, that?s just not me. I want to find a place that?s comfortable for me, and I also don?t feel comfortable walking around in nothing and I don?t think I will be that way when I?m legal. I just don?t think that you?ll see this crazy turnaround from me when I?m 18 and I?ll be like ? JoJo, ?Girls Gone Wild!?
An only child, Jojo grew up closely with her mom who makes sure everything is in place for her, she gets a lot of sleep and finish school work. Parties are out of the picture.
Meanwhile, lyrics for too little too late by jojo talks about a two-timing soccer star boyfriend. Basically, the a little too late jojo track is about moving on.
Jojo?s second album The High Road carrying the first single to little to late jojo
debuted at number 4 on Billboard's album sales chart the week after its release, selling close to 95,000 copies; the disc has gone on to sell more than 1.3 million units.
Working with Chris Robinson, the singer-songwriter actress, jojo a little to late vision came to life featuring on the small screen UCLA soccer team defender Mike Zaher.
The jojo little too late video was given a soccer theme because it was shot during the 2006 FIFA World Cup.
"We (Chris Robinson) collaborated on this idea, and it was his idea to incorporate sports into the video. My first thought was American football, but he said, 'Think about it on an international level. Soccer is the biggest sport in the world.' And I said, 'Perfect,' because I am a soccer fan," the bubbly teenage singer enthused.
In the jojo little too late video, JoJo spots her soccer star boyfriend flirting with a blonde inside a house party.
The jojo to little to late video ends with Jojo singing under the rain flaring up in a decision to ditch the two-timing boyfriend, while the double-crossing dude misses a goal.
Jojo a little too late broke the record for the biggest jump into the top 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart, from number 66 to the third spot in one week. This record was previously held by Mariah Carey with her 2001 single "Loverboy" which went from 60 to the second spot. |
