Cos nothing can beat her. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:02 | |
Especially her style. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:04 | |
She's really inspirational. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
Her songs are just like angels singing to me. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
I am on Team Rixton. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
They've got great lyrics and they've all got great voices, | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |

It's time, for Pop Slam! | 0:02:33 | 0:02:35 | |
Round one, Pop Potential. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
This round is all about how our stars made it big. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
First up, Demi Lovato. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
# Don't surrender, surrender, surrender... # | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Demi Lovato might be rocking stages all over the world right now... | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
# We were so in love back then, | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
# Now you're listening to what they say... # | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
But before all that, she was | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
a little pageant performer right here, in Dallas, Texas. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
Yeehaw! | 0:03:07 | 0:03:08 | |
This is Collyville, Texas. | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
It's just outside of Dallas and it's where one Demi Lovato grew up. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:19 | |
Back then, she was just a tap-dancing kid | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
who loved performing in beauty pageants. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
This is the story of how a Texan girl became | 0:03:23 | 0:03:26 | |
one of the biggest names in pop. | 0:03:26 | 0:03:28 | |
# You'll be coming home with me tonight | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
# And we'll be burning up like neon lights... # | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
Demi loved music and this is the very house | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
where she taught herself to play the piano and drums. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
She had her sights set on becoming a star | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
and started entering local talent competitions. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
And then, at age eight, | 0:03:48 | 0:03:49 | |
she won the Texas State Cinderella Miniature Miss. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:52 | |
Nice one, Demi. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
For being a Cinderella Miniature Miss, | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
I'm giving you two Ambo Points, | 0:03:58 | 0:04:00 | |
Little Miss Lovato. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:01 | |
Pageants were great, but it was when Demi was ten, | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
she saw an advert for a TV audition that would change her life forever. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
That audition was for a hit children's show, Barney And Friends. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
1,400 girls showed up that day, | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
and who should Demi end up sitting next to? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
None other than future BFF, Selena Gomez! | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
Both Demi and Selena got roles on the show. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
Here they are on set. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:27 | |
Demi's on the left and Selena on the right - if you can't tell. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:31 | |
Demi, have four Ambo Points for bagging a role | 0:04:31 | 0:04:34 | |
on a world famous TV show. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:37 | |
Demi was one lucky girl, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
she had an awesome TV job | 0:04:39 | 0:04:41 | |
and a future celeb friend! | 0:04:41 | 0:04:43 | |
And get this - I'm going to check out the studio | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
where she made her first step into TV. Woop! | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
# Never put my love out on the line | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
# Never said yes to the right guy. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
# Never had trouble... # | 0:04:54 | 0:04:55 | |
MUSIC SLOWS TO A HALT | 0:04:55 | 0:04:57 | |
What? Major sad times, | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
but old Barney And Friends' TV studio is now a chair warehouse. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:05 | |
But that hasn't stopped me before, | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
so I'm here to meet Shelley Aubrey - | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
a performance director who cast Demi on the show. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
Take me back to Demi's audition for the show. What was she like? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:17 | |
She was beautiful. She had the sparkle. She had IT! | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
Her face always shined, but... | 0:05:20 | 0:05:23 | |
not real sure about the dancing. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:25 | |
SHE LAUGHS Let's see, the word... A clutz. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:27 | |
-Oh, really? -Oh, yeah, and that's why I'm shocked | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
when I see some of her tours or see what she's... | 0:05:30 | 0:05:33 | |
Oh, well, she's learned some lessons. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:35 | |
Maybe I wasn't a good enough teacher. | 0:05:35 | 0:05:37 | |
-Were Demi and Selena probably your best? -I guess they were. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
She and Selena would do little plays after we had gone off | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
in their room and they would write their own little things. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
Usually, Selena was writing | 0:05:45 | 0:05:47 | |
and being the ogre or something | 0:05:47 | 0:05:49 | |
and Demi was singing and being the queen or princess. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:52 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack | 0:05:52 | 0:05:58 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack...# | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
Demi was on Barney And Friends for two years | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
It's been great seeing the warehouse, | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
but what's even better is that Shelley's brought | 0:06:06 | 0:06:09 | |
some old Barney photos to show me. | 0:06:09 | 0:06:11 | |
These are some of my memorabilia of some of the shoots. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
There's Demi, | 0:06:14 | 0:06:16 | |
with Selena right next to her. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
-Oh! That's so cute! -And this is another series. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:21 | |
-There's Demi...with Selena right next to her. -They were always together? | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
They were always together in these pictures. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
Shelley, thank you so much, it has been such a treat. Bring it in. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
Oh, you are welcome. Thank you. | 0:06:30 | 0:06:32 | |
I might need you to show me out, though. | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
I might need help too. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack | 0:06:43 | 0:06:48 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack. # | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
After Barney And Friends, Demi's BFF Selena moved to LA, | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
so what better time to pack up your bags | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
and move across country in search of your dreams? | 0:06:58 | 0:07:01 | |
# I should have known when I got you alone... # | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
This was a really brave move for a teenage Demi, | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
but one that paid off big time because, | 0:07:07 | 0:07:10 | |
in 2008, Demi scored the starring role | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
in hit TV Movie Camp Rock. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
# This is real, this is me | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
# I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now... # | 0:07:19 | 0:07:22 | |
Demi co-starred with huge boyband, The Jonas Brothers. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
# Now I've found who I am | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
# There's no way to hold it in. # | 0:07:30 | 0:07:34 | |
The film was massive, getting over | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
eight and a half million viewers | 0:07:36 | 0:07:39 | |
when it premiered in the US alone. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
15-year-old Demi Lovato became an overnight superstar. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
# ..to feel so in the dark | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
# To dream about a life where you're the shining star | 0:07:49 | 0:07:54 | |
# Even though it seems... # | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
Demi, have five Ambo Points | 0:07:56 | 0:07:57 | |
for starring in a massive movie. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
Demi had made it, | 0:07:59 | 0:08:01 | |
but Camp Rock was just the start, | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
bigger things were around the corner. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
# This is real, this is me | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
# I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be now... # | 0:08:09 | 0:08:13 | |
Demi, take the weight off, | 0:08:13 | 0:08:14 | |
it's time to check out those Rixton Boys. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
# All I need's a little love in my life, | 0:08:17 | 0:08:20 | |
# All I need's a little love in the dark | 0:08:20 | 0:08:23 | |
# A little but I'm hoping it might kick-start | 0:08:23 | 0:08:26 | |
# Me and my broken heart | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
# I need a little loving tonight...# | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
They're the boyband who've got it all. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
Talent, tunes and legions of fans across the globe. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:37 | |
# Me and my broken heart. # | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
But before they were rocking all over the world | 0:08:41 | 0:08:43 | |
they were dreaming of stardom | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
right here in Blackpool! | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
# Baby, aimed at my heart, you got one | 0:08:48 | 0:08:52 | |
# Tear me apart and then some | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
# How do we call this love? | 0:08:54 | 0:08:57 | |
# Whoah-oh-oh... # | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
Rixton's story starts right here in Blackpool, | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
with a young Jake Roche. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
Jake was a musical kid and he had showbiz in his blood. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:09 | |
But it'd be when he teamed up with Danny, Charley and Lewi | 0:09:09 | 0:09:14 | |
that he'd take the UK and US by storm. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
Here's how it all went down. | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
Jake's mum is famous singer Coleen Nolan | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
and his dad is entertainment royalty Shane Ritchie. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
Jake and his big brother both wanted | 0:09:29 | 0:09:32 | |
to follow in their parents' showbiz footsteps | 0:09:32 | 0:09:35 | |
So, in 2009, he started a band with a keyboardist called... | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
You guessed it, Danny! | 0:09:39 | 0:09:40 | |
And you are never going to believe this. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
I'm off to the pub where they played their first ever gig together... | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
So keen! | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
# Someone like you... | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
# Whoa, whoa... # | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
I want to know all about their first gig, | 0:09:54 | 0:09:57 | |
so I'm meeting Jake's big bro and fellow singer, | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
Shane Richie Jnr. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
This is footage from that very gig with Shane singing in the middle | 0:10:02 | 0:10:06 | |
and Jake and Danny to the right of him. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
-Jay! -How's it going? Yeah. -So good. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
This is the site of where you guys did your first ever gig. | 0:10:12 | 0:10:16 | |
Tell me everything. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:17 | |
It was amazing, to be fair. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:19 | |
It was really, really good. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:21 | |
Jake was still young, he was only 16-17. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:24 | |
It was his first big thing, | 0:10:24 | 0:10:25 | |
and every night before the gig... | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
"Shane, I don't think I can go on... | 0:10:27 | 0:10:30 | |
"Honestly, mate, you might just have to go on tonight by yourself." | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
Then, as soon as he'd step on, he's like, "Here I am!" | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
Apparently still does it now. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:37 | |
HE PRETENDS TO CLEAR THROAT "La, la, la, la la." | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
One, two, three, four... | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
-# It's all about you -It's about you | 0:10:42 | 0:10:46 | |
# It's all about you, baby...# | 0:10:46 | 0:10:48 | |
Was he always a singer, like, growing up, around home? | 0:10:48 | 0:10:51 | |
Just always singing, it used to do my head in - | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
and he's still the same now, so annoying. | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
If he wasn't going to sing, | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
he'd have acted or been in the West End | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
or Broadway or something like that. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:01 | |
He was destined for it. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:03 | |
# Dancing on the kitchen tiles | 0:11:03 | 0:11:06 | |
# It's all about you. # | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
Now, I've got to ask you this... | 0:11:08 | 0:11:10 | |
Is it true that Jake still comes home and gets his pants washed? | 0:11:10 | 0:11:13 | |
-Yeah, he still takes them back to my mum... -Oh, really?! | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
..and she washes his boxers, yes, she does. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
Oh, still a mummy's boy at heart. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:19 | |
-Absolutely. -Oh, well, thank you so much, it has been amazing. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:22 | |
Bring it in. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
# The thing about my baby, it don't matter if you're black or white! # | 0:11:24 | 0:11:29 | |
For some big time brotherly love and rocking out to a packed crowd, | 0:11:29 | 0:11:32 | |
have three Ambo Points. | 0:11:32 | 0:11:34 | |
But, hey! I'm taking one away | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
for still getting Mum to clean your undies. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
After a handful of gigs Jake and Danny left the band | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
to start working on their own tunes. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
They wanted to write songs nonstop, | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
so they moved in together, | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
into this caravan. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:51 | |
# Take it, take it | 0:11:51 | 0:11:52 | |
# I'll give my heart to you for free, girl | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
# Don't you break it, break it... # | 0:11:55 | 0:11:57 | |
Not only is this is where Jake and Danny started writing together | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
but the Rixton boys came back to record a live performance. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
I want a tour, so I've called Danny's Mum Angela | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
to find out what things were like back then. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
-What's up? -Hey. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Angela, give me some. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
I'm a little bit excited. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
I can't believe that this is where Danny and Jake | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
used to write out music. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:22 | |
Give me the grand tour. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
OK. This is it! | 0:12:24 | 0:12:26 | |
It's great, it's great. I'm loving it. | 0:12:26 | 0:12:28 | |
-Don't hold back, tell me everything! -OK. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
This is where Danny and Jake signed it originally and Charley | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
and Lewi added on when they joined. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:36 | |
Just clear this space, I might try to take that and put it on my wall. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:40 | |
Nope, that's not going anywhere. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
You're lucky. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
# Say it, say it | 0:12:44 | 0:12:46 | |
# I know there's something on your mind, girl | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
# And I hate it, hate it... # | 0:12:49 | 0:12:50 | |
What was it like when the guys were living here? Was it this neat? | 0:12:50 | 0:12:54 | |
-Or was it just a load of stuff...? -It definitely wasn't neat. | 0:12:54 | 0:12:57 | |
There'd be a keyboard, | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
all the equipment that they would use, the recording equipment, | 0:12:59 | 0:13:03 | |
clothes everywhere, | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
cups everywhere, plates everywhere. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:08 | |
So, no, it definitely wasn't neat. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:09 | |
# Wait on me I know how to love you | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
# And I want to love you some more | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
# Wait on me Come a little closer... # | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
It sounds like this place was a tip but, boys, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:20 | |
I'm giving you two Ambo Points for making the most | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
out of your little home. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:24 | |
# I wanna feel your body | 0:13:24 | 0:13:25 | |
# Wait on me I know how to love you | 0:13:25 | 0:13:27 | |
# And I wanna love you some more... # | 0:13:27 | 0:13:30 | |
To complete the band, Jake and Danny needed more members. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:33 | |
Enter Charley, a guitarist from Essex | 0:13:33 | 0:13:36 | |
and a drummer from Lancashire called Lewi. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
And that was it. The band Relics were born! | 0:13:39 | 0:13:43 | |
What? Yep, that's right. | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
Back then, Rixton were called Relics. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:47 | |
But the story's not over yet! | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
# We've got the sweet, hot loving | 0:13:50 | 0:13:52 | |
# Dancing in the dark | 0:13:52 | 0:13:54 | |
# Out in the streets we're running | 0:13:54 | 0:13:57 | |
# Shut down every bar... # | 0:13:57 | 0:13:59 | |
Relics hit the studio and started uploading cover songs | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
to the internet, like this version of Rita Ora's Like We Do. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:05 | |
# ..Cos that's just how we do. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
# We do... # | 0:14:07 | 0:14:11 | |
Their videos got loads of views and managed to catch the attention | 0:14:11 | 0:14:15 | |
of one Scooter Braun, | 0:14:15 | 0:14:17 | |
who's only the manager of...JUSTIN BEIBER! | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
He got in touch and arranged to meet the boys | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
at a recording studio, right here in London. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
# Just go numb | 0:14:26 | 0:14:30 | |
# You'll never know until you let go | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
# Just go numb... # | 0:14:33 | 0:14:34 | |
Scooter liked the boys so much that he signed them right there and then. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:38 | |
Boom! | 0:14:38 | 0:14:40 | |
# I can feel you now. # | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
Have three Ambo Points for making a mega impression on a showbiz legend. | 0:14:43 | 0:14:47 | |
# Keep on doing the same old things... # | 0:14:47 | 0:14:51 | |
Unfortunately, the band name Relics was taken, | 0:14:51 | 0:14:54 | |
so the boys became Rixton. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:56 | |
They had the name, a record deal | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
and were ready to take the world by storm. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:01 | |
And that all started with this bad boy. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
# Let's make out | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
# Ooh-ooh-ooh | 0:15:07 | 0:15:09 | |
# Let's make out | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
# Ooh-ooh-ooh | 0:15:11 | 0:15:13 | |
# Let's make out... # | 0:15:13 | 0:15:14 | |
The video for their debut track Make Out went viral in 2013 | 0:15:14 | 0:15:18 | |
and peeps in the USA went wild for it. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:21 | |
Rixton had cracked America with their very first song, | 0:15:21 | 0:15:24 | |
something most artists spend their whole career trying to do. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:29 | |
Have three Ambo points | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
for making it in the US, boys. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:33 | |
# T-t-t-tell somebody. # | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
Let's have a look at the scores... | 0:15:36 | 0:15:38 | |
These guys have astronomical levels | 0:15:40 | 0:15:42 | |
of pop potential | 0:15:42 | 0:15:43 | |
but it's Demi Lovato | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
who takes an early lead. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:46 | |
We've seen how our stars made it, | 0:15:48 | 0:15:49 | |
now it's time to see how hard they've been working. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:53 | |
It's time for Round 2! | 0:15:53 | 0:15:55 | |
Round 2, Pop Success. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
This is all about what our stars have been up to, | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
to make sure that they stay at the top of the charts. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:05 | |
First up, Demi. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
# I'm not a supermodel | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
# I still eat McDonalds, baby | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
# That's just me. # | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
Camp Rock made Demi Lovato a massive star. | 0:16:16 | 0:16:19 | |
So, it wasn't long before she started writing | 0:16:19 | 0:16:22 | |
and releasing her own songs. | 0:16:22 | 0:16:24 | |
Demi released two albums within a year of each other. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
The first, Don't Forget, | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
got to number two in the US album charts in 2008 | 0:16:30 | 0:16:33 | |
and her second, Here We Go Again, | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
got that all important top spot. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:38 | |
# Hey, hey! # | 0:16:40 | 0:16:42 | |
Have two Ambo Points for totally bossing the charts from the get go. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:48 | |
But what about Rixton? | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
# Girl, let me love you, baby | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
# Ooh-ooh. # | 0:16:56 | 0:16:57 | |
Rixton work around the clock to promote their music | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
and they've appeared on some of the biggest TV shows in the USA. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:06 | |
And all this TV promo work | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
has helped them smash into the US top 20 billboard charts. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:13 | |
Nice work. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:15 | |
# I just wanna be the one to remind you | 0:17:15 | 0:17:19 | |
# What it is to smile... # | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
But the Rixton boys aren't just big in the US. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:24 | |
In the UK, Me and My Broken Heart went straight to number one, | 0:17:24 | 0:17:29 | |
outselling Nicole Scherzinger | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
by 12,000 copies. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:33 | |
Now, that's schamazing! | 0:17:33 | 0:17:35 | |
# All I need's a little love in my life | 0:17:36 | 0:17:38 | |
# All I need's a little love in the dark... # | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
Rixton, I'm throwing three Ambo Points your way | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
for instant world domination. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
# Me and my broken heart. # | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
# You can take everything I have | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
# You can break everything I am | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
# Like I'm made of glass | 0:17:55 | 0:18:00 | |
# Like I'm made of paper. # | 0:18:00 | 0:18:03 | |
Demi Lovato was huge in the USA | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
but it wasn't until 2012 that she cracked the UK charts, | 0:18:06 | 0:18:10 | |
with this track, Skyscraper, that rocketed into the top 10. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:15 | |
# Like a skyscraper | 0:18:15 | 0:18:18 | |
# Like a skyscraper. # | 0:18:18 | 0:18:22 | |
And, in 2013, the super awesome track Heart Attack went even higher, | 0:18:22 | 0:18:27 | |
crashing into the UK top 5. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:29 | |
# If I ever did that | 0:18:29 | 0:18:32 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack | 0:18:32 | 0:18:36 | |
# I think I'd have a heart attack. # | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
Demi, I'm giving you two Ambo points for two killer tunes. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:43 | |
Not only that, Demi also sang the single version | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
of a small song you might have heard of from Frozen! | 0:18:46 | 0:18:50 | |
Let it go, let it go... | 0:18:50 | 0:18:53 | |
# Turn my back and slam the door | 0:18:53 | 0:18:57 | |
# And here I stand, and here I'll stay... # | 0:18:57 | 0:18:59 | |
Demi, you can have three Ambo Points | 0:18:59 | 0:19:02 | |
because everybody loves Frozen. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:04 | |
Let it go, let it go! | 0:19:04 | 0:19:07 | |
The cold never bothered me anyway. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
OK, so I may not have the best voice, | 0:19:10 | 0:19:13 | |
but there has to be someone to thank for Demi's rock awesomeness | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
and that would be vocal coach and tour buddy Linda Septien. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:20 | |
Whoop! | 0:19:21 | 0:19:23 | |
Linda Septien is a showbiz icon. | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
She's worked with Beyonce, Selena Gomez | 0:19:26 | 0:19:29 | |
and has coached Demi since she was nine years old. | 0:19:29 | 0:19:33 | |
I want to know all about how hard-working Demi is. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
-Hello! -Hello. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
You're living mine and everyone's dream by getting to tour with Demi. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:44 | |
What's it like? | 0:19:44 | 0:19:45 | |
She is probably one of the hardest workers | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
of any female singer I've ever worked with. | 0:19:48 | 0:19:51 | |
So, what do you do, and what do you tell her, | 0:19:51 | 0:19:53 | |
to keep that voice really powerful and strong? | 0:19:53 | 0:19:56 | |
Well, I can tell you a story that she may not mind. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
We were, I think, here in Dallas | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
and she said, "I'm so hoarse right now I'm really struggling." | 0:20:01 | 0:20:05 | |
She says, "I've got a two hour show." | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
and I said, "OK, there's a trick | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
"that you can do with cayenne pepper and lemon and a little bit of honey. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:13 | |
"Let's see if it works." | 0:20:13 | 0:20:14 | |
And, so, she eats this whole little thing and goes, | 0:20:14 | 0:20:18 | |
"Oh, that's awful," | 0:20:18 | 0:20:19 | |
and then about 30 minutes later, she's going, | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
"Wow! I can talk. I can do anything." | 0:20:22 | 0:20:24 | |
"This is amazing. Let me have another one." | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
And I said, "Demi, I don't think you want two of those things." | 0:20:27 | 0:20:31 | |
So, she put another one in her mouth, and was fine. She was great. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:35 | |
After the show, she comes backstage | 0:20:35 | 0:20:37 | |
and she whispers in my ear, | 0:20:37 | 0:20:39 | |
"I threw up cayenne pepper the entire time." | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
I said, "What did you do with it? While you were onstage?" | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
And she said, "Yeah, I just swallowed it and it was awful." | 0:20:45 | 0:20:49 | |
So, we do all kind of tricks. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:52 | |
# Don't wanna break your heart | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
# Wanna give your heart a break | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
# I know you're scared it's wrong... # | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
What a legend! | 0:20:58 | 0:20:59 | |
Demi, you can have two Ambo Points | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
for keeping the show going despite being sick all the way through. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:05 | |
# So, let me give your heart a break... # | 0:21:05 | 0:21:07 | |
It's not just Demi's fans who love to see her perform live, | 0:21:07 | 0:21:11 | |
Rixton's legions of followers are seriously dedicated too. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:15 | |
# Wait on me | 0:21:15 | 0:21:16 | |
# I know how to love you and I wanna love you some more | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |
# Wait on me... # | 0:21:20 | 0:21:21 | |
Get this. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
In July 2014, tickets for their US headline tour went on sale | 0:21:23 | 0:21:27 | |
and sold out in a staggering ten minutes! | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
# Wait on me | 0:21:30 | 0:21:32 | |
# I know how to love you and I wanna love you some more... # | 0:21:32 | 0:21:35 | |
For being a mega in demand band, | 0:21:35 | 0:21:37 | |
have three Ambo Points, boys. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:39 | |
# Take it, take it... # | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
And that's the end of round two. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:43 | |
Let's see those scores. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
Both these guys have had big-time success | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
but Demi has increased her lead by four points. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
If you don't agree, you know what to do. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
Go to the CBBC website and have your say. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:58 | |
We've found out how our pop royalty made it big, | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
and how successful they've been. | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
It's now time to see how glam they've become in round three. | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
Round three. Pop style. | 0:22:10 | 0:22:12 | |
This is all about our celebrity's lives. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:14 | |
Clothes, cars, pets or whatever else | 0:22:14 | 0:22:16 | |
they splash their cash on. | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
First up, Miss Lovato. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
# Our love runs deep like a Chevy | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
# If you fall I'll fall with you, baby... # | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
Demi is one trendy lady | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
and no-one rocks the rock goddess look quite like her. | 0:22:29 | 0:22:33 | |
With fame and fortune comes fabulous fashion and hot hair | 0:22:33 | 0:22:37 | |
and Demi certainly doesn't disappoint in that arena! | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
She changed her hair more times than I've even brushed mine. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:43 | |
No, seriously. | 0:22:43 | 0:22:45 | |
# No matter how far we go... # | 0:22:45 | 0:22:48 | |
She's rocked blonde, brunette, | 0:22:48 | 0:22:50 | |
black, pink, blue, red, | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
curly, straight and even shaved. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:56 | |
# No matter what the people say... # | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
Demi, have three Ambo Points | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
for mixing up your dos | 0:23:00 | 0:23:02 | |
and looking 100% every time. | 0:23:02 | 0:23:04 | |
Sometimes fabulous hair always work out how you'd like it to. | 0:23:04 | 0:23:07 | |
This one time, Demi was doing a gig at Kansas City | 0:23:07 | 0:23:10 | |
on a particularly warm night. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
It was so hot that her hair extension melted off her head. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:16 | |
Not only did she not realise, | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
but, during a dance move, it got stuck in her bracelet. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:21 | |
Now, I wasn't there at the time but I imagine it went | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
a little something like this. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:25 | |
"Hello, everyone, my name is Demi Lovato. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
"OK, it's a little bit hot in here but we are doing this. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
"Yeah, let's go. Make some noise. | 0:23:33 | 0:23:36 | |
"Whoop, whoop, whoop." | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
# Even if the stars and moon collide | 0:23:38 | 0:23:41 | |
# Never watch your back... # | 0:23:41 | 0:23:43 | |
"Ooh, ah. | 0:23:43 | 0:23:44 | |
"Sorry, guys, my hair is just stuck in my bracelet. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:47 | |
"You keep rocking, I'll be right back. | 0:23:47 | 0:23:49 | |
"OK, Demi, you're going to have to pull it out. No pain, no gain." | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
"Oh, no, but I don't want to. Don't make me do it." | 0:23:52 | 0:23:54 | |
"Come on, Demi. No pain, no gain." | 0:23:54 | 0:23:55 | |
"OK, on three. One, two, three." | 0:23:55 | 0:23:57 | |
SHE SCREAMS | 0:23:57 | 0:24:01 | |
"I'm back. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:03 | |
# Even if the stars and moon collide... # | 0:24:03 | 0:24:06 | |
That's right, Demi and her hair were A-OK. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
She went off stage, removed it from her bracelet | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
and then kept on rocking. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:13 | |
What a pro. | 0:24:13 | 0:24:15 | |
# But even if the stars and moon collide... # | 0:24:15 | 0:24:19 | |
Have three Ambo Points for not letting your hairstyle | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
get in the way of the show. | 0:24:22 | 0:24:24 | |
Hey, Demi isn't the only one who knows how to bring | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
some glitzy style to the party. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:29 | |
# Wait on me | 0:24:29 | 0:24:31 | |
# I know how to love you | 0:24:31 | 0:24:32 | |
# And I wanna love you some more. # | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
Those Rixton boys scrub up pretty well too. | 0:24:34 | 0:24:37 | |
The boys look great together but also have their own things going on. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:45 | |
# Wait on me... # | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
Jake loves a pair of sunglasses, | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
Danny keeps it cas', | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
Charley likes the shirt and blazer look | 0:24:52 | 0:24:55 | |
and as for drummer Lewi, | 0:24:55 | 0:24:57 | |
it's all about the backwards cap | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
and that mysterious backpack. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
Nobody knows what he keeps in that backpack... | 0:25:02 | 0:25:04 | |
Until now! | 0:25:04 | 0:25:06 | |
I've have managed to exclusively get a hold of his backpack. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
OK, guys we're doing this, let's go inside. | 0:25:09 | 0:25:11 | |
He's got a flip-flop, yep. Check. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:13 | |
Oh, teddy bear, that's nice. What else have we got? | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
Oh, he's got a beetroot? | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
OK, fine, you got me. It's not his. It's mine. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
I guess what he keeps in the bag will remain a mystery. | 0:25:20 | 0:25:23 | |
So good. | 0:25:23 | 0:25:24 | |
# Wait on me | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
# I know how to love you | 0:25:26 | 0:25:27 | |
# And I wanna love you some more | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |

And Lewi you get a bonus Ambo Point | 0:25:32 | 0:25:35 | |

FANS SCREAM | 0:25:48 | 0:25:49 | |
Demi Lovato may be a super stylish, mega famous pop star, | 0:25:49 | 0:25:53 | |
but it doesn't mean she's forgotten her roots. | 0:25:53 | 0:25:56 | |
Demi loves her family so much that, for her 18th birthday | 0:25:56 | 0:26:00 | |
she bought them a big house all to live in. Not only that, | 0:26:00 | 0:26:03 | |
but she let them live in the main house | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
whilst she bunked at the small building out the back. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:08 | |
Nice one, Demi. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:10 | |
# Why are you singing me love songs? | 0:26:10 | 0:26:12 | |
-# What good is a love song? # -Hooking the fam up with a new pad | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
gets you three Ambo Points. | 0:26:15 | 0:26:16 | |
But Demi and her family | 0:26:16 | 0:26:18 | |
aren't the only ones who are close. | 0:26:18 | 0:26:20 | |
# Cos it's you, who | 0:26:20 | 0:26:22 | |
# Somehow is always the first to | 0:26:22 | 0:26:26 | |
# take care of me... # | 0:26:26 | 0:26:28 | |
The Rixton boys are so close they recorded | 0:26:28 | 0:26:31 | |
some of their debut album naked! | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
# Appreciated. # Let's go! | 0:26:34 | 0:26:37 | |
Being bessie mates gets the lads | 0:26:37 | 0:26:39 | |
three Ambo Points | 0:26:39 | 0:26:40 | |
but I'm taking one away | 0:26:40 | 0:26:42 | |
because that's just weird. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
And that brings us to the end of round three. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
Oh, I know, it's almost over. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:52 | |
I don't ever want to leave you guys, | 0:26:52 | 0:26:54 | |
but it's time to get a little bit serious and find out | 0:26:54 | 0:26:57 | |
who has won the Ambo. | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
Right after we take a look at what we've learnt. | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
This has been one epic Pop Slam, people. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:06 | |
Both Rixton and Demi Lovato are loved across the globe | 0:27:06 | 0:27:10 | |
and have some seriously good tunes. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
This is a close one. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:14 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, yes, get excited. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
It's the moment we've all been waiting for. | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
The votes have been counted and independently verified, by me. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:25 | |
And the winner of the Ambo is... | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
Oh, no way. It's Demi! | 0:27:35 | 0:27:36 | |
Sorry guys. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
