GP Chats with Logan from Big Time Rush: Part Two!

June 8th, 2011 by Anthea | 2 Comments | Filed in Celebrity, Music, The Magazine

Today we bring you Part Two of our chat with Logan from the awesome band Big Time Rush! If you missed part one, find it here! Also don’t forget to pick up a copy of our July issue to find out all about the boys’ new single, ‘Boyfriend’.

Make a big mug of hot chocolate and get reading!

GP: Do you still get a buzz out of hearing yourself on the radio?

Logan: I’m such a perfectionist and as an artist you always want to produce something that makes me happy and makes everyone else happy. I want to put out music that affects people in some type of way. It’s such a great feeling, not really a weird one, to have a track or record you really love and that you are so passionate about.

GP: Do you hang out with your band mates off set or do you get sick of each other!?

Logan: We spend pretty much seven days a week with each other because of rehearsals and filming the show and recording so any kind of extra time that we have we usually go our own separate ways. We love each other to death but everyone needs their own time.

The Big Time Rush Boys!

GP: What can we expect from the rest of Season Two of Big Time Rush?

Logan: It’s pretty much going to be bigger and better than what you have seen already. There are a lot more guest stars coming up and a lot of funny things that happen. We have been making new music in the studio so you can expect the biggest and the best!

GP: Do you have a dream artist you wish to collaborate with in the future?

Logan: We have some great European artists that we are really keen to work with. Tiny Temper is one of them, Lupe Fiasco is another great artist. Jessie J…the list goes on and on. I listen to so much music so there are so many different people I would want to work with! The possibilities are limitless.

GP: Do you have any pets?

Logan: One of my close friends has a little dog and I am kind of like the other parent of that dog and my roommate has a big German Shepherd. I am a huge animal lover and I love dogs.

GP: Do you have any advice for our GP readers who may want to start a band of their own?

Logan: No matter what it is that you want to do, you should dream as big as you can and go for it. Don’t let anyone tell you that it can’t be done because that is the worst advice. Do whatever you want to do and hard work will make it pay off.

The new single from Big Time Rush, ‘Boyfriend‘, is out now – it features Snoop Dogg! You can also catch the boys on Big Time Rush on Nickelodeon.

GP Chats with Logan from Big Time Rush: Part One!

June 7th, 2011 by Anthea | 2 Comments | Filed in Music, The Magazine

This month, GP caught up with Logan Henderson from Nickelodeon’s Big Time Rush! He was SO sweet. As well starring as Logan Mitchell in the TV series, he’s also in a REAL band called Big Time Rush! They make amazing music.

Logan from Big Time Rush! Columbia/Nickelodeon

In the latest issue of Girl Power, we ask Logan all about the boys’ new single ‘Boyfriend’ and find out what it was like to film the space age video clip! Make sure you pick up a copy of the mag to get all the goss :)

Today we bring you part one of the rest of our chat with Logan! Stay tuned tomorrow for Part Two…

GP: So Logan, do you ever find it strange to have the same name as your character on Big Time Rush?

Logan: Yeah, it can definitely be weird. The name Logan is cool, it’s better than being called Cody or Luke. As an artist, the reason why we chose the first names was because that name is going to stick and Logan is my name. Any musical message I produce will come under Logan Henderson. As far as the humour goes and the funny parts about Logan Mitchell, we are similar in that respect as we are both a bit goofy but the other aspects of Logan Mitchell is not similar to me at all.

GP: You’ve had some pretty famous guest stars on Big Time Rush, who was the coolest one to work with?

Logan: I don’t think I could pick a favourite, we have had so many amazing people! We worked with Nicole from the PCD who was beautiful, she was really cool to work with. We had Russell Brand on one of the episodes so that was really cool. We have had some great names.

GP: Did you like working with Miranda Cosgrove too?

Logan: We have known Miranda for a little while now and she has been so successful. She’s a very talented girl and always a bunch of fun to work with.

The Big Time Rush Boys! (L-R) Logan, James, Carlos and Kendall

GP: Tell me a little bit about the other boys in the band. Who makes you laugh the most?

Logan: The person who always makes me laugh until I cry is James. Me and James are pretty goofy – we always make each other laugh.

GP: Do any of the boys have a very annoying habit?

Logan: Carlos is super organised and ordered so he is pretty much the opposite of the character he plays on the show. He is more like my character in real life. He is the more cautious one and is always thinking about stuff. He has his own way of doing things but it is all in good fun. He keeps things pretty clean for us so I can’t blame him for that.

GP: You said you and your character were both a little goofy. Have you had any on stage slip-ups or is your record clear?

Logan: I think every single time I go on stage something happens that is not supposed to happen. But that is part of the fun of performing! Even on the show and in real life my motto is to practice as hard as I can and as much as I can when it’s time to practice so that when I’m on stage performing I wont make any mistakes. There’s never really any mistakes on stage – it’s my time. I did almost completely fall on a back flip one time, though…

TUNE IN TOMORROW FOR PART TWO OF OUR CHAT WITH LOGAN!

The super single ‘Boyfriend’ is out now! You can also catch Logan in Big Time Rush on Nickelodeon!
