" Ryan and James Follese, Nash Overstreet, and Ian Keaggy, who make up the rock band Hot Chelle Rae, dropped by Seventeen to chat about the crazy Myspace fan they pay tribute to and shooting their music video with Stephanie Pratt! Their album, Lovesick Electric, came out yesterday (and you can listen to their single, &amp;quot;I Like to Dance&amp;quot; for free now)! 17: How did you guys get started as a band? Ryan: It started about five years ago with Nash and I. We were playing in a music store and a guitar friend of ours, a mutual friend, said we should get together and work together, play music or write. Nash came over to the house and we started writing songs... Nash: And we made fun of each other&amp;#039;s hair. I had atrocious, multi-colored hair. 17: Why are there so many versions of your video on your MySpace? Ryan: If someone makes us something, we post it. The other day this girl figured out how to play &amp;quot;We Like to Dance&amp;quot; on her electric violin and we posted it on our Facebook. 17: What was it like shooting your music video with Stephanie Pratt? How did that come about? Hot Chelle Rae: She was incredibly nice. You always have assumptions based on TV shows, but she had heard our music and really liked it. Our management asked her to be in the video and she really wanted to do it, and we were all for it. She was a sweetheart, it was super surprising. We hope we get to work with her again. 17: How did you come up with your band name? HCR: One of our crazy fans stole a model&amp;#039;s pictures and made a MySpace profile with it. The pics were really hot, but we don&amp;#039;t know what she actually looked like. We didn&amp;#039;t figure this out until a while down the road. She would never come to our shows and meet up because she would be like, Oh, I&amp;#039;m in a different city. Then it started to get fishy. Another band warned us that she was crazy. Needless to say, we needed a new band name and her name got thrown into the pot. We ended up really liking it. We&amp;#039;ve still never met her, even to this day. We found the model that she stole pictures from and we sent them to her. The fake Chelle Rae disappeared after that. We&amp;#039;ve heard that she has been to our shows but we don&amp;#039;t know what she looks like. 17: What are you guys listening to right now? HCR: The Phoenix record is awesome. It might sound cheesy since we&amp;#039;re on tour with them, but Third Eye Blind. We are all over the board. We like Britney Spears&amp;#039; new song, &amp;quot;3&amp;quot;, and the One Republic album. So, have you heard Hot Chelle Rae? What do you think of the music (and the guys!)? Sound off below.
