If you've seen Bratz: The Movie, you probably haven't been able to get the catchy track Rock Star by Prima J out of your head. We caught up with the pop duo to talk Bratz, music and back-to-school. Here's what they had to say!

Sindy: Hi Girls! You were recently signed to Geffen Records - when did you first find out and how did you feel?
Janelle: Our managers arranged a meeting about a year ago with Ron Fair, who is the chairman of Geffen Records, so we went to meet him and he listened to a demo we had at the time. We performed a song for him as well.
Jessica: The meeting was about an hour long, but by the end of the meeting he stuck out his hand to give us a handshake and said "Congratulations girls. I'm your new fairy godfather." We couldn't believe it.

Sindy: I assume you will be working on a debut record soon. What can fans of your single expect from the album?
Jessica: Just like the single, our album is going to be very sassy and fun.
Janelle: You can expect many dance tracks!

Sindy: Your debut single Rock Star is featured on the Bratz: The Movie Soundtrack. Which Bratz girl are you each most like?
Janelle: I suppose we have a little of all of them in us!

Sindy: Were you fans of the show originally?
Jessica: We have never seen the show but we LOVE the dolls!

Sindy: Growing up, who were your musical influences?
Janelle: Wow, there are so many: Mariah Carey, Toni Braxton, Janet Jackson, Christina Aguilera, and TLC just to name a few.

Sindy: Who are some of your favorite artists today?
Jessica: Chris Brown, India Arie, Musiq Soulchild, and Lil Wayne.
Janelle: Ludacris, Lil Wayne, Madonna, and Queens of the Stone Age.
