Thats my opinion anyway. All this Hope is here to stay forever.... nonsense!

I reckon Phoebe will go solo and will proably do quite well. She reminds me of a young Mel C. She is a likeable girl, it's the other that are not.

I don't think shes good enough myself. I think they better as a band

I don't get this girl....... I don't think she can sing that well. 'Hurt' hurt my ears.

The black girl on the other hand is quite good..... but only quite.

Ok maybe I was wrong then!

i agree

i think phoebe would suit a rock band, cheaa boy!

I dont understand why everyone rates Pheobe, I think she was just the best of a bad lot personally, She wasnt that great a singer imo

Leeah was great tonight. I can't believe that they never gaver her solos before. Phobe, Emily and the olf looking one arn't that great though.

Hope's future is entirely dependent on Syco or SBMG offering them a record deal.

Phoebe is good, although I do see her as being part of a group as oppose to a soloist.

I've never lied Phoebe, she seems to have a bad attitude and perosnally, I think Leah has a far superior vpice....Phoebe sounds quite flat most of the time.

I think Phoebe will try to go solo, get nowhere, and in 20 years time she'll be in the position Niki is now (except Phoebe still won't be able to sing).

I was delighted to fibally hear a solo from Leah last night - she cried when she heard me sing at boot camp, and from her that's actually a compliment!

She's definitely the best singer in Hope - the standard was so high at boot camp, I'm surprised they couldn't find four better singers to join Leah in Hope - Alisha would've been ideal, and better suited to being in a group than a soloist.

Anyway, Phoebe may well be the second best singer in Hope. I just don't think she could have a solo career, and doubt Hope will take off - they'll split after the tour, but I can't see any of them being the next big thing. Leah's good enough to have singing opportunities in the future, but I don't know whether she's had enough exposure as a vocalist to get them.

Raquelle's more likely to end up as a regular in Heat (such as Jodie Marsh, Kerry Katona) with her ambitious personality, but lack of vocal talent. I doubt Charlie's likeable or memorable enough to make it on her own if/when Hope do split. I'm not sure about Emily, she's a sweet girl but I'm not sure how much point there'd be in her pursuing a solo career, she may have different opportunities in the fture though.

Anyway, rant over for now xx

Expect to read about a Solo deal for Phoebe late January 2008, funnily enough with an album called 'Solo'.

I doubt it, she isn't really well known enough yet, I'd expect to see her return to next years show as a soloist.

I think the girls actually like each other

I'd have said more Shabnam Paryani myself.

Turn her into a complete punk rock chick omg!

I say, give them a chance to try some gigs and maybe record a few songs as a Group, before going solo....
Look at some group memembers that were quite good but didn't make big waves going solo.

The bbest example is the guys from Take That.
Robbie had bigsucces but has faded lately.

Garry Barlow, the best one IMO, tried solo and it didn't work as well as for Robbie. Now they are back toghether and they are doing really well.

Maybe, but I think Raquelle's more "sexualised" than Shabnam, also that Shabnam's more off our radars than I imagine Raquelle would be, after all Hope got a lot further in what I'd say has been a more successful TV series than Shabnam has. I can see the similarity, though.

Expect to see Raquelle in numerous clubs and Ok mag photo shootsd with the likes of Danielle Lloyd and co and Hope to be no more by the end of the tour

They're still together at the mo, all of the insane predictions of disharmony looks like they might have been a bit made up.

haha there have been frictions on the group just like a group of anyother people when they have to share small rooms with other people but they r definitely staying together. Besides they all have to for the next 18 months and its only possible to quit if you buy yourself out of the contract.

In 18 months, Top of the charts with moi as their manager.

I'm not sure. I think she's more conventionally pretty, but Shabnam did a shoot in her underwear as soon as she came out of the house, whereas I've not seen that from Raquelle yet. Then, I suppose, there's the costumes she's worn.


I'm not sure. She was around for a little while, and Raquelle's got the rest of the girls to help her stay in the limelight. What I was saying, really, was that I can't ever see her getting Kerry Katona status as being on the front page of these mags all the time and being referred to as just her first name. If we assume that this is the last we've heard of Hope and if we assume that Raquelle does make it into Heat by herself, I wouldn't lay money on them touching her with a 10ft bargepole in 6 month's time.


Ironically, I think Shabnam's actually got a better voice.

She can give me some 'bad attitude' anytime.
