The song "Gossip" was inspired by nights out partying in London where the girls gossiped in the nightclub bathrooms on websites like Facebook.[2] "These days people are no longer giving out their phone numbers, they are giving out their Facebook names",[3] Amorosi explained. The video clip for "Gossip" was filmed at Melbourne's Labassa mansion[4] by director Stuart Gosling.[5]
