chantelle123 anybody in here?
bandslamgal What are your top beauty tips?
Less is more, it is important to focus on great jewellery pieces and killer boots!
chantelle123 Hi Aly, how are you? , what was it like filming this film with Vanessa Hdgens? x
Hey, I'm good thanks. We had such a fun time filming in Austin, Texas. Vanessa and I actually went to see Willie Nelson in concert while we were there and went shopping a bunch. We've become really close girl friends.
louise if you could have a super power, what would it be? Louise :) x
Hi Louise, I definitely would want to fly! I think it'd be so cool to go any place you want and you can avoid traffic!!!
Sage What's your favorite part of the movie?
I would say the Overlook scene where my character Charlotte and Will (Gaelan Connell) talk about their love for music. It is the beginning of their friendship in the movie.
love4music How have you found coming to ireland and london:)
I've absolutely loved it! I'd never been to Ireland before and it is nice to be back in London. I went to see U2 last night in Dublin and they were phenomenal. I plan on doing some shopping here and I'm going for High Tea later today. My sister Aj has been with me for the whole trip and she's loving it too.
Katiexoxo If you could trade places with any person for a day who would it be and why?
Good question! It'd actually be interesting to be a guy and who's cooler than Johnny Depp??! I'd hang out on his private island in the Carribbean and dress up as Jack Sparrow!
Rosaa. What's your favourite film???
Edward Scissorhands - I love that movie! I think Tim Burton is a genius and Johnny Depp is so charming and loveable as the character.
Ro_spain What is your favorite place? Spain Loves You!
Ahhh thank you, I can't wait to come to Spain, I've never been. I don't think I have traveled enough around the world to have a favorite place but I love vacationing in Hawaii on the North Shore.
xloveisonitsway whats your favourite peice of clothing?
My favorite piece of clothing would actually have to be boots. I have so many different styles. Slouchy, tall, short, buckled, you name it, I've got it!
sugartrend what is it like singing with your sister? do you have disagreements about songs and stuff?
I love being able to share my music with my sister. She's my best friend and confidant. We tend to disagree during band practice before going on tour. The guys in the band always make fun of us because we're such perfectionists when it comes to rehearsals. Overall we have the same taste in music and style so we don't argue too much. The one thing Aj always gets mad at me for is when I take a piece of clothing without asking!
louise hiyaa! if you were stuck on a desert island and could only have 3 things, what would they be?
Hey there Louise, my three things would be my guitar, the book 'Dry' by Augusten Burroughs, and my ipod. I've been listening a lot to Mutemath, My Morning Jacket and Carolina Liar.
Kiiki Can you relate to your character in the movie? xx
I can definitely relate to Charlotte. I share the same love for music and her bandmates. I love the fact that Charlotte was a songwriter because it is such a rare gift to have. I think that Charlotte is a little more reckless than I am and has to deal with a serious family issue that thankfully I've never gone through.
xloveisonitsway If you had to be trapped in a TV show for a month, which show would you choose?
I've never gotten this question before...genius! I would love to be on Dexter. I think Michael C Hall is so brilliant in the show. It is crazy to think an audience can fall in love with a serial killer.
flower123 IS AJ WITH YOU NOW?
Nope she's ditched me, she's sleeping in the hotel room!!
random_person what's one thing you've learned about yourself while filming?
To enjoy every moment. Bandslam was such an amazing experience for me because it was my first motion picture film. It was so wonderful to walk away with life long friends like Vanessa and Gaelan.
katexlouise whats the craziest thing you have ever got from a fan?
xloveisonitsway What was the most recent movie that made you cry?
Gran Torino I thought Clint Eastwood was so amazing. I cried when he got shot at the end. I tend to cry in animated films which is so weird and random. I think there are some scenes in Bandslam that will make some of you guys cry.
J_x I lovee you, Can I have a virtual kiss on the cheek :)
xloveisonitsway Who would you most like to be stuck in an elevator with? Least like?
I would most like to be stuck in an elevator with my co star Gaelan. I know for a fact he would make me laugh while we were waiting to be rescued. I'd least like to be stuck with a skunk. haha
hayley What else are you doing in London this week ?
I plan on going to Mahiki and Maya this week as well some shopping with my London friends. I'm going to be visiting the Liberty Centre in Romford on Thursday, Silverburn in Glasgow on Saturday and Newcastle on Monday so stop by and say hi. We're having a Bandslam contest with Guitar Hero, it'll be so much fun.
clarkcolet what's your favourite song in Bandslam?
Amphetamine by Steve Wynn. I'd never heard of this song prior to filming but I fell in love with it once the director played it for me.
PinkyPirate Who was the last person to text you?
My friend from London Antony. I'm going to visit him while I'm here.
alyandajrox08 hey...what is your favorite candy? Mine are gobstoppers --Krissy
I love gobstoppers too! I just discovered an amazing chocolate bar that you guys have here - doubledeckers, soooooo good.
staramo was there any pranks on the set on Bandslam? lol
We didn't play many pranks on set but I would leave notes in my co star Gaelan's trailer after work leading him on a treasure hunt. He always figured it out and got candy at the end.
xloveisonitsway Which cartoon character do you resemble the most?
Bubbles from Powerpuff Girls
Dillon Do you have any news about 78violet?
So sick you're calling us by 78violet now. We've finished the latest record and it will be dropping either late this year or early 2010. Look forward to some great rock tracks. We've been really picky with each song, it's taken us over a year to write. Hope you like it.
PeppeMichalka The best people you found on bandslam cast?
My favorite people to hang with from the cast were Todd Graff the director, Vanessa Hudgens, Gaelan Connell, Ryan Donowho who plays Basher and our director of photography Eric Steelberg. We would go out to dinner and see live bands on our nights off which was amazing.
brandon what was the most difficult scene and the most fun scene to film in bandslam
The most difficult scenes to film was the stuff in the garage as it took so long to shoot and every take was live so we had to be on our game. The most fun scene was probably at the Overlook with Gaelan when our characters talk about their love for music and making it to the Bandslam competition.
78violet I am a massive fan!! Xo Do you miss home, family and friends, ect. when you go on tour? Rachel Xo
ahh thanks you're so sweet. I definitely miss my family and friends when I'm on the road but I try to keep in contact by texting and tweeting. It is important to be surrounded by good people you trust.
bandslamfan Hey Aly! Who (besides your sister of course!) is your best friend?
My best guy friend would have to be Gaelan and my best girlfriend would have to be Lyndsy and Emma Roberts.
Jamieeee Where in the World haven't you been but you really want to visit?
I really want to go to Fiji someday
BH Do you have Twitter?
Yes, our twitter name is alyandaj. We ar constantly updating and sending photos so check in regularly, we'd love for you to follow us. xoxo
Aamna Alyson, what was you favourite line that you said in Bandslam?
My favorite line is said by my character Charlotte - 'always do the thing that scares you'. I think it is so important to live life to the fullest by not holding yourself back from things that can take away from your happiness. We should all take chances and not be afraid to be ourselves. Thank you so much for all of your questions, I've had a great time answering them on sugarscape. Make sure you guys check out Bandslam in theaters August 12th. Also, look out for 78violet's new record...and keep following alyandaj on twitter for the most up to date information. Love you guys xoxo Aly
