QPQ: Done.

Overall: ALT0 is pure name-checking; if the only thing a peice of prose states is what other groups the subject has played with, it should probably be a table or list instead. On ALT1: Musicians getting their start on social media is very common these days, and it's unclear to me that this wasn't true when MySpace was big. ALT2: Too lacking in context. With that being said, the hook is the only problem, article is fine Mach61 (talk) 15:12, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

I forgot that Myspace was once big. I am going to do some more research, but for now: ALT3: ... that the British musician Frankee Connolly has had UK Top 20 hits as part of a manufactured band and a non-manufactured band?--Launchballer 17:46, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but it's still unclear to me why a typical reader would be interested hook. Perhaps try a different hook concept altogether; there's lots of stuff in her interview, including that she never took singing lessons before being signed. Mach61 (talk) 19:34, 3 February 2024 (UTC)

ALT4: ... that Frankee Connolly (pictured) signed to Xenomania and took her first singing lessons - in that order?--Launchballer 09:14, 4 February 2024 (UTC)
