LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - Big Brother babe Vanessa Layton-McIntosh has signed a six-figure record deal fulfilling her lifelong dream of becoming a singer, it emerged today.
The 20-year-old south Londoner, who featured in the recent series Big Brother Six, said she was "over the moon" with the recording contract with CBM Records. She hopes to release her first single in October.
Vanessa, from Croydon, was evicted after seven weeks in the Big Brother house this summer.
Now she is writing her own music and is confident of topping the charts.
Speaking from a recording studio in Streatham, south London, Vanessa said: "I would describe my style as R and B with a more commercial slant - along the lines of Destiny's Child and Javine.
"I want to get a chart hit and be in the Top 10. I want to sing on Top Of The Pops - that has always been a dream of mine."
Vanessa, who was working as a shop assistant before auditioning for Big Brother, said she had been spotted by record producer Charles Bailey during her stint in the house.
She said: "He saw me dancing and performing on Big Brother so he knew I had the moves, but he didn't know if I could sing. He asked me to come down to his studio and sing a few songs.
"I was amazed when he said I was good. I never knew I could sing. Now I realise I actually have a good voice. I am so grateful I have been given a chance to do this."
Vanessa, who lives at home with her family in Croydon, is the second housemate from Big Brother to score a recording deal.
She added: "Kinga has been in the recording studio so we have been talking a lot about the business together. Science and Lesley desperately wanted to get into the business, but it never happened.
"I never thought when I auditioned for Big Brother that I would end up with a record deal. I guess this has happened to me for a reason. I am so excited. I'm over the moon."

I really can't see Vanessa being 'the next big thing', but who knows? Although there's more than a hint of the old Stock, Aitken & Waterman school of thought here, at least she didn't spend her time in the house trying to promote herself as a vocalist. Maybe she does have talent? After all, everyone is good at something, so perhaps she can add singing to eating and sleeping on her CV?
Does anyone know if any other hm's, other than Craig (BB1) and Nadia (BB5) has had a 'hit' record, by the way? I just Googled Craig - he signed a FIVE album deal with WEA Records, but At This Time Of Year peaked at number 14 in December 2000. Did anyone buy it? :laugh:

Mind you she is pretty "big" already, well all that food has to go somewhere!:laugh:
And well as for her comparing herself to DC and Javine, we'll have to just wait and see. Somehow I don't see her getting very far.
Has she not learned anything from Nadia,Craig,Nichola,Bubble & Dean....need I say more.
What's her first single gonna be,'Who Ate All the Pies'?

The sound of this makes me think of the word...flop. Unless her personality starts to shine out in her singing I cant see her getting very far.:puzzled:

I won't keep my hopes up. :bored:
I was quite surprised that she had got a record deal - it seems to have come out of the blue, unlike in the case of Lesley and Kinga, who both made no secret of the fact that they would like to be singers.

It's ridiculous! :shocked:
There is NO WAY she'll get to #1, not even CLOSE to the top 10 even... :bored:
What I don't get is, when Vanessa was evicted she got booed alot, the public obviously doesn't like you so why do you think they'll buy your CD? :puzzled:

lol :laugh:
I'm slightly alarmed by the fact that she said she didn't know she could sing! It suggests to me that maybe she can't?!

I know she seemed to eat a lot, but I don't think she's overweight in the slightest....GOD!!
I didn't really like her but I hope this is true and she does well because her experience of the big brother house must have bothered her a lot. Although I am confused as to why she didn't know she could sing :puzzled:
I'm very bitter on hearing Science hasn't got a deal :bawling:

You know it will be terrible.
can you imagine a songwriter giving her their best songs when they could give them to proper singers/stars?
texbex
01-09-2005, 06:41 PM
Couldnt believe it when I read it I didnt realise she wanted to be a singer all this time in fact I think she has just said it for the fact that she has got the money and the record deal, she thinks she is mint because they spotted that she could dance on big brother, yeah well the other 99% of the time she was busy scoffing her face and sleeping so they can hardly be musical geniuses can they!
Kinga has more musical talent and she has the expressive personality that all talent should have BIG UP KINGA U HAVENT SEEN THE LAST OF HER!
How could we. You can't miss all that flab. :bored:

Thats not very nice though is it Lance. Imagine if that was you that got something thrown at you, Id doubt you'd find it highly amusing.
Okay, So she ate alot, And was boring, But no one deserves that treatment. Ever.

If this is true then im reallyy reallyy happy for her well it is true hehe!
I didnt have a clue she could sing and i think that if she has got a recored deal then she must be good, shes out the house now and i think evewryine should just give her a chance. I know that i'll be buying her CD and ive spoke to a m8 bout this jus then n he said even if he loves the song and she can sing gr8 then he's not even buying it cos he dint like her in the house. Anyone else tha wud do that r simply sad. I cant w8 for her to release her song and *fingers crossed* she will be good n if she is n goes on to do well n have a future in music then i think out of all the 16 housemates then she is going to do the best if this works out for her and lets hope it does work out of her! Just giv the girl a chance lol!
Good Luck Vanessa!!!!! :thumbs:

'Long' and 'incoherent' have very different meanings.
Legend
01-09-2005, 11:06 PM
Yeah, i'm sure they do and i'm very happy you have managed to work that out! Honestly i am!
But what does 'incoherent' mean? I can't say i've came across the word b4!
Also, what's that got to do with anything ? ? ?

in·co·her·ent ( P ) Pronunciation Key (nk-hîrnt)
adj.
1) Lacking cohesion, connection, or harmony; not coherent: incoherent fragments of a story.
2) Unable to think or express one's thoughts in a clear or orderly manner: incoherent with grief
Basically, CharlotteSometimes is saying she can't understand your post. I think you're trying to say something positive about Makosi, but I'm not sure...

Just a quick heads up Legend - text speak isn't allowed on this forum. Welcome though:xyxwave:
I take your point about your mate saying that he wouldn't buy Vanessa's record even if he liked it, because it's by her, but isn't it really just the same thing to say that you would definitely buy it, without even having heard it, just because it's by her?

Excatly was I was going to say. It's a fair point to say it's sad that your friend won't buy Vanessa's CD just because it's by her, but surely that makes you equally as sad for only buying it because it's by her, and not on the basis of pure talent (if she has any)? :puzzled:

Yeah true i agree wid yas one tha one lol.
If i hear it n she cant sing then maybe i wont buy it but as u said i probably will. I knew what charlotte sometimes meant but he or she was tryin to be funyn sayin it so i was saying all that.
