"Every day this week in the run-up to the launch of the new series, DS:BB has been speaking to a different housemate from Big Brothers past. Our final interview - backstage at The Big Brother Launch Night Project - is with Chanelle Hayes, the most successful contestant from last year&amp;#039;s show. Has she really made up with Charley? And is she planning another assault on the pop charts? Read on to find out. How&amp;#039;s filming going? &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s been really good. We&amp;#039;re an hour behind at the moment, but it&amp;#039;s given us time to wolf down some fish and chips and a glass of wine, so I&amp;#039;m happy with it.&amp;quot; Not too much wine I hope. &amp;quot;No, not on the job. Just a small glass. Or two.&amp;quot; Will you be watching the new series of BB? &amp;quot;Oh yeah, of course. I&amp;#039;ve got a magazine column, so I have to watch it religiously every day, which I would be doing anyway. I&amp;#039;m really excited because obviously I missed it last year!&amp;quot; Do you have any regrets about your stint in the house? &amp;quot;No, I don&amp;#039;t have any regrets. I think if you sit and dwell on the past you&amp;#039;re going to miss stuff that you can do in your future. Maybe I threw a few tantrums last year, but it&amp;#039;s made me grow up. I&amp;#039;ve got into a really good place, I&amp;#039;ve got lots of work and Big Brother&amp;#039;s enabled me to do this. So I don&amp;#039;t regret going on the show, or anything I did on it, because otherwise I wouldn&amp;#039;t be who I am or where I am.&amp;quot; Who do you keep in touch with? &amp;quot;I speak to Brian and Liam on occasions, and the twins.&amp;quot; And do you get on okay with Charley now? &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve just taken a professional head. Whether she likes it or not, I&amp;#039;m going to be civil with her. She&amp;#039;s just had to grin and bear it. When [you&amp;#039;re] in the house it&amp;#039;s much easier to argue than when you&amp;#039;re working, so you&amp;#039;ve just got to grow up and do your job. We don&amp;#039;t keep in touch, we don&amp;#039;t text and we don&amp;#039;t have each other&amp;#039;s numbers. But if I did see her in the street and she approached me and said &amp;#039;hello&amp;#039;, I&amp;#039;d more than happily have a conversation with her.&amp;quot; And she claims to be releasing a single called &amp;#039;I Want It More&amp;#039;... &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s probably true because I&amp;#039;ve got enough, and she probably wants more. So...&amp;quot; What do you think of the idea? &amp;quot;I wish her the best of luck. I haven&amp;#039;t heard it. From what she&amp;#039;s described it as, it&amp;#039;s not my kind of music. I prefer more pop, R&amp;amp;B.&amp;quot; Will you be releasing any more music? &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;ve been offered an album, so me and my agent are weighing that up at the minute and [deciding] whether we want to do that. I&amp;#039;ve been offered a few other things to do with TV as well, so we&amp;#039;re trying to weigh up the pros and cons of each. Even if I did do an album and didn&amp;#039;t release it, it would just be nice to do it for myself. I&amp;#039;d definitely think about it. But the offer&amp;#039;s there.&amp;quot; What sort of music do you want to make? &amp;quot;i don&amp;#039;t know, I want a variety of music. I could even do something with the violin I suppose, or piano. I&amp;#039;ve got a lot of musical background - I&amp;#039;ve been trained in music since I was seven - so I&amp;#039;ve got quite a lot of options.&amp;quot; Is an &amp;quot;all-stars&amp;quot; edition of Big Brother something you&amp;#039;d be interested in? &amp;quot;Never say never, but right now I&amp;#039;m really happy with what I&amp;#039;m doing, so I take each day as it comes.&amp;quot; What else is coming up for you? &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;ve just shot my calendar for 2009. We&amp;#039;ve just finished the TV show and I&amp;#039;m going to be doing some more TV work. I&amp;#039;m going to be doing some more music and we&amp;#039;re going to relaunch my perfume range with a new front cover. It&amp;#039;s a bit dated now that I&amp;#039;ve changed my hair!&amp;quot; The Big Brother Launch Night Project airs Thursday at 10.40pm on Channel 4. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
