Biography:
Soulful, R&B-influenced pop vocalist Pixie Lott was born Victoria Louise Lott on January 12, 1991, in Kent, England. Nicknamed Pixie by her mother, Lott first began singing in church. Later, she attended an arts school and appeared in several West End musical productions. A demo she recorded eventually caught the ear of producer L.A. Reid, who signed her to Island Def Jam Records when she was 15 years old. However, songs posted to her MySpace page began drawing more industry attention, and a bidding war ensued. Lott ultimately signed to Mercury in the U.K. and Interscope in the United States. Lott`s debut album, Turn It Up, was scheduled for release in 2009.
