1. What can the girlies learn about you two upon listening to this new album? What was the inspiration behind it?
Coco: The inspiration behind it was we wanted to make a cover album but our team told us that was a dumb ass idea so then Girl was born. What the girlies can learn from this is as a wise man once said, ‘You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you just might find you get what you need.’ I think we all needed this album.
Clair Clair: Exactly. We sing about our lovers, our enemies, our insecurities, and our confidences… so I think listeners can learn a lot about us from these songs.
2. What is your favourite lyric from the album?
Coco: ‘I’m a bad bitch I’ll kill the both of us.’ To me, there is so much depth here. I remember a long time ago, probably in 2016, we wanted to make a song that said something like ‘I’ll kill us both, I don’t care’ but it never did find a home for some reason. It reminds me of Cameron Diaz in Vanilla Sky when she tried to kill herself and Tom Cruise’s tiny ass. Sometimes bad bitches have to sacrifice themselves for the greater good.
Clair Clair: ‘Cus the block got my dick hot n alladat. On a couple block lists, yeah, alladat. They ask if I’m phased I say ‘no, sorry lad.’ Got only girlies with taste at the kickback. Heard some geezers that never heard of Weezer, talkin’ ‘bout a pint in the pub in Ibiza. Sometimes I can’t tell work from leisure. I just need a dirty martini, maybe a litre.’ Incredible. Some of these lines are from a freestyle that Coco did before we began working on the album. I’m so happy we got to use them because I think they encapsulate us perfectly.
3. What has been your biggest ‘I’m just a girl’ moment to date?
Coco: I had to have a random lady come into my dressing room when I was thrifting to come kill a spider. I also had to give my number out once in exchange for killing a spider for me in my car at a gas station. I’ve also jumped off a balcony onto a couch in the living room to avoid a spider on my stairs. There are more moments like this but I’m currently in an immersive therapy program so I don’t like to focus too much on the past.
Clair Clair: I have this moment quite often and it’s when I go out to dinner at a fancy restaurant and order butter noodles.
4. What is one artist you would love to work with?
Coco: Gwyneth Paltrow.
Clair Clair: Gwyneth all the way.
5. What song perfectly describes your personalities?
Coco: Boom Boom Pow by Black Eyed Peas.
Clair Clair: Imma Be by Black Eyed Peas.
6. Would you rather be overdressed or underdressed forever?
Coco: Underdressed.
Clair Clair: I would rather be overdressed but I’m almost always underdressed and wearing PJs or flip-flops. So…
7. Which artist has had the biggest impact on your artistry?
Coco: The Millionaires.
Clair Clair: Grimes.
8. What is your favourite thing to do together other than make music?
Coco: Karaoke, shopping, traveling, building forts, making drinks, sleepovers, road trips, bar hopping, going to the strip club, you name it babes.
Clair Clair: Couldn’t have said it better <3.
9. Dream stage to perform on?
Coco: Madison Square Garden.
Clair Clair: House party vibes: a castle in England with a huge pool that has a see-through dance floor over it as the stage. We’re surrounded by massive fountains and beautiful plants, fireworks are going off, all of our friends are there, and free vodka gimlets and the best mini cheeseburgers of all time are being passed out. We all get to sleep in the castle after the performance is over.
