She is the star everyone is talking about. New girl Karmen Johnson has already topped the UK charts with Broken, which followed her first single Trapped earlier this year. This is not the first time the 20 year old English singer has tried to reach fame.
How did you start your career of song writing and singing?
Well i always new i wanted to be somewhere in the singing industry so i started of by doing what most people do when they want to be a singer. I auditioned on the x-factor with three of my closest friends in 2008, the judges said that we were all too young but we have talent. So i began doing it by myself, writing my own songs and playing with my guitars in my room. I wondered what other people would think of my music so i posted a video up of me on YouTube singing one of my favorite songs ' A Thousand Years'. Before i new it everyday the views and likes increased and my twitter account was flooded with new followers.(@KarmenJohnson)
So what happened from then?
Well everything has been crazy since then, ive been working on my first upcoming album 'Fallen' which will be released on 25th May. I have the likes of Jessie-J and Justin Timberlake featuring on the album, and some old classic's which i have put my own style on. I feel like ive had a 10 year career in just a year.
Has fame changed you as a person?
Well i think fame changes everyone i think it depends on who you are with at the time. Your personality changes depending on which person you are with. I think as a person i have become more aware of who i am and what i want to achieve.
What has been your most memorable moment so far of your career?
The moment i will never forget is when i won the award for the best newcomer at the Brit Awards. It is a feeling you cannot describe, knowing that the songs you have written and created are liked by thousands of other people.
