JO
O'MEARA
Age: 20
Starsign: Taurus. ("I'm clumsy, just like a bull.")
Likes: Steak and chips, her dog Pepsi, and R&B.
Dislikes: Traipsing around clothes stores and her habit of
picking her eyelashes.
Turn-ons: "A bloke who's funny and short."
No one could ever
confuse Jo with a shrinking violet. "Loud, full-on and a
bit over-the-top, that's what people usually say about
me," roars 20-year-old Jo. Jo's big break came thanks to
a karaoke machine. "I was 12 and someone pushed me up to
sing 'The Locomotion.' Afterwards my dad said, 'Hey, you're
quite good.' And that was it. I loved the applause and the
attention, so I kept going up and singing!" By the time
someone finally pulled the plug out of the back of the
karaoke machine, Jo was already planning her next
performance.
