Frankie's first taste of fame is when she appeared on SM:TV live as a cheerleader. She is a self confessed shoppahoilc, and the others nkow her as pink, girly and flirty. The S Club Juniors auditions were the first auditions that she got through. Many people think that Frankie is a genuine, caring person, and is easy to talk to. Shethinks the worst thing about boys is them pretending that they don't care.

People feel comfortable chatting with Frankie. She just has that way about her. "I love that people know they can come and talk to me about whatever'e on their minds, I guess you could call me the mother figure of SCJ," giggles Frankie. In person Frankie is one of the most genuine and caring people anyone could possibly hope to meet. "You know I feel like I've known Stacey, Hannah, Daze, Roch, Calv, Jay and Aaron all my life," says Frankie. "A couple of years ago I'd never have thought I'd be surrounded by such a wonderful bunch of people, doing the thing i love most in the world!" ponders Frankie. "I guess it's true what they say - you never know what lies around the corner."

S Club8 Secret:"I've known Rochelle for ages and I'm very close to her. In fact, we even went to the SCJ auditions together!"

Fan Fact:"Our fans are the greatest. They've all been so generous with their support and I would like to thank them from the bottom of my heart."

Advice:"It doesn't matter how old or young you are, if you work hard enough at what you love you'll get exactly where you want to be"
