Interview with Chloe Branson's Ex-friends Paige and Lauren (from American Girl On Saturn)

Today I had the chance to talk to Chloe Branson's Ex-friends Paige and Lauren.


Sooooo.... There's been some rumors that you two treated Chloe very poorly during her time on lockdown with the SAS boys. What do you two have to say for yourselves?

L: I only saw her once. She skipped my party, remember?
P: Well, Chloe wasn't exactly honest with me about some things. How was I supposed to know?

How do you two feel now that Chloe is dating THE Milo Grayson?

L: No comment.
P: What Lauren said. *sigh*

Have you tried getting in touch with Chloe since the lockdown has ended?

L: No, she unfriended me on Facebook and blocked me. We weren't that great of friends anyway.
P: I've tried calling her so many times, but she changed her number.

Were either of you amongst the group of screaming girls awaiting the boys' exit from the house?

L: No. Never.
P: I wasn't screaming. I was only there to see if it was true!

Now Paige... There's been some... controversy about how you in particular treated the oldest Branson sister (like how you went about tagging her in multiple pictures of....you know what). If you could say anything to her now, what would it be?

P: I hope she knows that I didn't know what was going on with her. I knew something wasn't right, but she didn't even hint anything. She should've at least told me that something was up but she couldn't explain... or something. But you know, she was over her ex, and he *was* free game. There's no law against it.

Any word on how Deacon McCullough feels about his ex-girlfriend dating Mr. Grayson?
 
P: I don't know.
L: He hasn't talked to us since Up, Up, & Away. He's dating some new girl now.

Well, it's pretty obvious that you two are terrible friends, but thanks for joining anyway.

Interview With Darby McMillon from Darby's Daily Dose of Drama (from American Girl on Saturn)

In American Girl On Saturn, Darby's name popped up quite a lot because Chloe loved to watch Darby's Daily Dose of Drama. We never actually got to meet Darby though. So today she joins me on my blog with some information about what's going on now with her life and the Saturn boys!


Hi! I've heard from different sources that you have been a Saturnite long before the SAS boys even had an album out for the world to hear. How did that happen?

Hi! Thank you for having me! I'm so excited. I'm usually on the opposite side of interviews, so this is really exciting for me! I actually discovered SAS via YouTube, before they made it big. They were self-promoting, trying to gain some momentum before their album, and I stumbled across them. Aside from their beautiful faces, these boys could definitely sing! I subscribed to their channel, and here we are today.

What drew you to this group in particular?

Honestly? No one knew who they were. I love discovering a new band/singer who the world doesn't know about yet, especially when they're super talented like SAS. It's sort of a special feeling, like they're just yours because no one else knows about them.

Now it's no secret that you are Tate Kingsley's biggest fan. But it is rumored that you actually got to meet the cute Canadian boy recently. How did that go over?

Oh gosh, yes, don't even get me started on Tate Kingsley! I was supposed to be meeting Chloe for lunch one day while she was in Cali (the guys were recording, so she flew in to see Milo). She reserved us a table in the back - super nice restaurant too! - and she showed up with SAS's head bodyguard, Tank, and then Milo and Tate walked in behind him, and OMGGGG I thought I was going to die. Do you hear me? DIE - like heart attack on the spot kind of death. The guys were super nice, though, and Tate is as adorable, sweet, and funny in person as I always thought he'd be. I just love him.

How do you feel about the Branson sisters being such a big part of the Saturn universe now? It's been floating around that you and Chloe are quite good friends on Twitter.

I really love the Branson sisters! All three of them! I do have contact with Chloe a lot via social media, e-mail, texting, etc. After the SAS lockdown ended, a lot of Saturnites were so awful to those girls, and I used my vlogger status to become an advocate for them. I think the SAS fans are finally accepting them, though, which is awesome because they're awesome people. I'm honored to call them my friends.

Which of your vlog posts have been your favorite to present over this whole Saturnite journey?

The early posts were the most fun because everyone depended on me to find the gossip! The guys weren't well-known, so I had to dig into the depths of the internet to find something to share. I once did a segment on Benji as a waiter (with pics included), and there was one segment where Noah dressed up as Frankenstein and roamed the streets in his hometown on Halloween day. Tate recorded it. Hilarious. Those videos went viral thanks to my channel (which I'm sure Noah doesn't like hahaha). Of the more recent vlog posts, I laughed hysterically over Jules's "cosmetic surgery." It's even funnier now that I know him! ;)

Have you gotten to see the boys perform live yet?

Not yet but I did receive a happy birthday phone call from one of the SAS boys... and by "birthday phone call", I mean yes, he sang to me... but that's MY little secret for now!

Who is your second favorite Saturn boy?

Oh, I hate to choose because I adore them all, but I'd have to say Milo. He's such a sweetheart. But I'm biased - I get all the inside scoop from Chloe, so I know how charming and romantic he is behind the scenes!

Last question, what rumors/secrets are floating around the Saturn atmosphere that you can tell your fellow Saturnites to be on the look out for?

Well, anyone who has followed the lockdown gossip knows that 2/5 of the SAS boys have found love. What Saturnites *don't* know is that 3/5 of SAS is currently taken! The guys also have a new album artist/merch designer (any guesses?), and rumor has it that the boys will be spending spring break in California! I'm so excited!

Well, thank you so very much for joining me today! If we ever need to clear up some rumors about what's going on on planet Saturn, you'll be the first person we come to!

#SaturnitesLoveDarby!

Happy Release Day, Nikki!

Hey, Saturnites! I'm so sorry for the late post! I wanted to wait until I had buy links for American Girl On Saturn before I posted my big release day post, buuuuuut it appears Amazon is being weird. Here's the quote straight from the author herself.

"Bear with me, you guys. Amazon's Kindle site doesn't seem to want to publish American Girl On Saturn. I've been fighting with it since this afternoon. Hopefully it'll work itself out soon!"

So Kindle owners, we hope to have the book to you guys as soon as possible! She's still trying to work it out. (If you use Smashwords to download your ebooks, you can pick up AGOS there!) We WILL get this book to you through Amazon soon, though!

Nook owners, the link will be at the bottom of the post for you to click on so you can get your own copy of AGOS!!

I can officially say this countdown is over!! Thank you so much to all the people who joined me every day and kept up with the Saturn love! I love you guys and so does Nikki!!

And thank you Nikki for allowing me to saturnize my blog! Love you!!

  The summer after graduation is supposed to be that first real taste of freedom - but not for eighteen-year-old Chloe Branson. Just as that breeze of freedom is making its way into her galaxy, her secret-service-agent dad drops a meteor-sized bomb of bad news on her and her sisters. An attempt has been made on the lives of Canadian boyband, Spaceships Around Saturn, during their USA tour, and the guys have to go into hiding ASAP. The only problem? In the midst of the crisis and media frenzy, their dad volunteered to hide the guys...in their house.

Six-year-old Emery is as ecstatic as any self-proclaimed Saturnite would be, but Chloe and her seventeen-year-old sister Aralie watch their summer plans crash and burn like a falling star. The SAS guys aren't happy with the situation, either. Bad boy Jules picks fights with Aralie about everything from his Twitter followers to his laundry, and heart-throb Benji can't escape Emery's fangirlisms for more than three minutes.

But after the super-cute Milo kisses Chloe during a game of hide-and-seek, she finally understands what Emery means when she talks about SAS being "out of this world." If this is what Saturn feels like, Chloe doesn't want to come back to Earth. American Girl On Saturn for Nook  American Girl On Saturn on Smashwords  American Girl On Saturn on Goodreads  Nikki's Twitter  Nikki's Blog  Nikki's Facebook Author Page

My Top Ten Favorite AGOS lines!

Before I post my top ten lines, I want you to know that it was extremely hard for me to not post the entire book on here. Nikki's got a way with words and can make anything sound beautiful! So, I had to pick just ten. Some of these don't seem impactful, but trust me, they are in context! Others, I just really liked! :)



I cringe and wish there was a way I could slip in between the couch cushions to the land of lost pennies, dust bunnies, and bread crumbs.

“Since Aralie won’t marry you, I guess you can be my dog,” she says. (Emery to Jules)

Hours later, Aralie compares the bug zapper to an electric chair for mosquitoes. (< Totally a comparison I would make!)

That’s like…” Emery pauses and looks at me. Then she looks back at Paige and Lauren. “It’s like when you tattle on someone because they are naked in your sister’s room. Then you get in trouble for tattling, but the naked person doesn’t get in trouble for being naked.”

Noah walks over to me with one arm outstretched.
“Did you completely die inside without us?” he asks, pulling me into a one-armed hug.
“I did,” Emery answers. “Chloe only did sometimes.”

Then Emery says exactly what we’re all thinking.
“Uh oh. Here comes a scarf.”

“But here’s the thing,” he says. “I may bleed every single day for the world, but I bleed the most for you.”

“My wish is for you to be my firefly,” I say. “After lockdown ends, we’ll only see each other in moments, for short flickers of time.”
“And it’ll always make us smile,” Milo says.

It may be summer, but I’m thankful for that sliver of winter.
And then there’s an ever-familiar flutter.


 Make sure you guys get the book in TWO DAYS!! and read these lines in context for yourself!! :)

The SAS boys' second mom...

Shelly Branson is obviously the Branson sisters' mother, but near the end of the book, the SAS boys begin to think of her as their second mother, too. She's a very crafty woman who has her hands full trying to keep Emery from smothering Benji and Aralie and Jules from killing each other. God only knows what she'd have done if she knew Chloe and Milo snuck out together every night. She loves her family and her five new 'sons'.

Make sure you guys buy the book in 3 DAYS to get to know Mrs. Branson better!!

American Girl On Saturn's Fake Butler is...

Godfrey Powell has always served as the Branson sisters pseudo-grandfather. He's been a part of the Branson's lives since before Chloe was born. He's their 'butler', but he's definitely more like family! Throughout the entire book he only says one sentence, but he says it multiple times. He also becomes quite close to one of the Saturn boys!

To find out Godfrey's one line and which Saturn boy becomes his favorite, you'll have to read the book in 4 days!!

Interview With Milo Grayson

Okay Saturnites, today we have a super special guest! The marvelous Milo Grayson is here!

So, tell us Milo, what is your favorite thing about being a member of THE Spaceships Around Saturn?
The brotherhood, chasing my dream, and the Saturnites.

Do you ever get nervous when you walk on stage and see all those thousands of screaming and crying Saturnites?
You never get used to people screaming and crying over you, but stage fright hasn't ever really been an issue for me. My adrenline is usually rushing hardcore before a show. I've only had stage fright one time in my life, and it wasn't even on a performance night...

Has a fan ever brought you something extremely off the wall to one of your shows?
Oh, I'm sure they do, but security does a good job of keeping it from us... but one time, there was this girl whose dad managed a grocery store. They delivered a truck full of strawberry milk to our hotel.

What made you decide to learn how to play guitar?
Isaac Torrey of Sebastian's Shadow. Best guitarist everrrrr. He's a musical genius, and I strive to be that awesome.

If you were deserted on an island and could only have one of your Saturn brothers for company, who would you want with you and why?
Benji or Noah. I already live with Benji, so I could handle that. But I hang out with Noah more than the others, when we're off tour anyway. I'll say Noah.

Is there anything special you have to have with you on tour?
Just milk and Oreos. I can survive without it, but then I have a tendency to get all diva-ish like Noah and Benji.

Where is your absolute most favorite place to tour?
The USA, hands down. It's my second home.

What is your favorite Saturn song to perform live?
"Music Up, Windows Down"

Is there any band you would spend the night outside of an arena for?
I have no idea what is wrong with my Saturn brothers. Seriously? We're musicians. We breathe music and lyrics. And you guys would rather sleep and score tickets from fans? Live a little! I'd wait alllllll night for Sebastian's Shadow!!

Last question. If you were a girl, who would your favorite Saturn boy be?
Benji Bikini!

Thanks for joining me, Milo!

Saturnites, you wanna find out that one time Milo got stage fright? Then make sure to buy American Girl On Saturn in 5 days!!!!

Interview with Noah Winters

The tattooed rocker of Spaceships Around Saturn has decided to pay us a visit!

So, Noah, Benji has quite a lot of tattoos, but I hear from different sources that YOU have more than he does. Is this true?
I'm the most inked. I will always be the most inked. Benji is a splatter painting in comparison to me.

Everyone who is anyone knows that you must have your strawberry milk first thing every morning.
What they don't know is, why strawberry?
Ha! Cool story. When I little, all the kids used to get chocolate milk during recess, and some of the girls got strawberry because it was in the pink carton. The other guys refused to drink it, but I've always been a bit rebellious. Every seven-year-old girl on the playground wanted to hook up with me. And ya know, I just grew to actually like strawberry milk.

Have you ever considered getting any piercings like your Saturn brother Jules?
Considered, yes. Would I follow through and really do it? Probably not.

If you were stuck at home during a storm and you only had the Twilight Saga and the Harry Potter Series on DVD to watch, which one would you chose to watch?
Twilight Saga. I've never liked HP.

If you were deserted on an island and could only have one of your Saturn brothers for company, who would you want with you and why?
Milo, for sure. I hang out with him the most outside of touring. He should've been MY bromance. Who the hell came up with Tito anyway?

Is there anything special you have to have with you on tour?
An endless supply of strawberry milk.

Where is your absolute most favorite place to tour?
Any big city - Chicago, Miami, New York. Love the city life.

What is your favorite Saturn song to perform live?
"Music Up, Windows Down"

Is there any band you would spend the night outside of an arena for?
No, I need my sleep. Last I checked, they don't serve strawberry milk outside of venues. Definitely not worth it.

Last question. If you were a girl, who would your favorite Saturn boy be?
Noah Winters, of course ;)

Thanks for coming by, Noah! Tomorrow, Milo Grayson will be here to tell what HE thinks the best thing about being in Spaceships Around Saturn is! :)

Interview with Jules Rossi

  Today I have with me none other than the Saturn bad boy himself, Jules Rossi.

So, in the Saturn world, it is well known that those black locks of yours aren't really black but blond. Did management not think it was a good idea to have two blond boys in one band, did they want to make you look more edgy, or does the black just make you feel more you?
I've always been the one to experience with different looks. I prefer a darker look honestly. But if management told me to do something, I'd pretty much do the opposite.

If you were deserted on an island and could only have one of your Saturn brothers for company, who would you want with you and why?
Well, I won't say Tate since his only use for me is to feed me to Bigfoot. I'm gonna go with Noah. He won't have any strawberry milk, therefore he'll never speak and I won't have to listen to his bitching and moaning. I'd have to listen to any of the others.

When you're not touring, what is your favorite thing to do?
I spend too much time with video games and going to movies. I'm a junkie.

What is the best thing about being in Spaceships Around Saturn?
Getting to do what I love, hanging out with my 4 best friends, seeing new places, and meeting new people.

Is there anything special you have to have with you on tour?
Cigarettes.

Where is your absolute most favorite place to tour?
The USA was great. I also really love touring across Canada, though. Shout out to the hometown fans!

What is the most embarrassing thing that's happened to you on stage?
I once sang the wrong words, and Benji stood there frozen on stage staring at me like I was the dumbest person in the world, which only made me screw it up more.

What is your favorite Saturn song to perform live?
"End of Time"

Is there any band you would spend the night outside of an arena for?
A few years ago, I'd have said Jack's Deathbed. And you might could get me, in a moment of weakness, to wait around all night for Mutilated Arteries. They're a post-lockdown guilty pleasure band for me.

Last question. If you were a girl, who would your favorite Saturn boy be?
Benji, no doubt. Did you really think I'd say someone else? (and the Jenji rumors resurface. Have fun, Saturnites)

Thanks Jules!

Noah Winters stops by tomorrow, so make sure you do, too!
