Today was the day they were doing the photoshoot for the cover of her upcoming album. She had half of the songs done and they didn’t have a title yet, not even a rough idea of what it would be. She hoped that once she had managed to write more songs one of them would stick out to her and that way she could have that be the title of the album alongside the first single of it. When it came to her music it was important to Isabel to listen to her gut. Her gut instinct would tell her when it sounded and felt right. She just hoped her team would agree and see the same thing she would. Photoshoots weren’t her area of expertise, but due to the fact that she was currently in New York where Juliette, one of her best friends and a successful model on top of that resided, she knew she could ask her to join her on set. “Thank you for coming Jules. I appreciate it.”

Melina rolled her eyes fondly at Isabel and shook her head at her. “Are you crazy?” she asked the other blonde. “Of course I don’t mind you being here, I wanted you here, I asked you to be,” Mel reassured the woman. “If someone recognizes you, we’ll just move you for your comfort,” she assured her. “Or you can be backstage,” she offered Isabel. Her main worry was for Isabel’s safety and comfort, not at all about the fact that it would take away from the show. Her fans were usually super chill, so she’d hope they’d be chill with an international superstar such as Isabel being part of the crowd. “It’s up to you, hon,” she told her. 

“Yeah I know you did, I just wanted to make sure you didn’t have second thoughts or regret it or anything....” Isabel trailed off. For her conscience she felt it important to ask given the fact that this was important for Melina. With her new album coming out soon she felt everyone’s eyes on her. Needless to say she was stressed. “I can try being in the crowd. Maybe they won’t recognise me under the very creative disguise I got going on here.” It was worth a shot at least. She could go backstage later.

Working on this album had taken her the better part of the last year, writing, recording, rewriting and recording again. It was an endless cycle as both she and her team would not be satisfied with anything less than perfection. The fans always expected her new album to be better than the one before and it was a lot of pressure to live up to. She didn’t want to disappoint her fans. The studio she had worked in for her last album had been good, but she had heard this new one that opened up in New York was better. And while she wrote most of her songs herself, having some good writers at hand to help her get over writers block that she could collaborate with certainly proved to be helpful. Especially because they understood her vision. With recording songs also came shooting videos for a few of them, cover art and tons of other things. One of them being meeting with producers “So my manager said you wanted to meet up with me before the album’s release and listen in on it? Or see the album cover?”

“My team had the idea of hiring a choreographer to come up with a dance to one of the songs of my new album and we thought tik tok would be the perfect place to promote it. I was depending between two songs and wanted to think which one you would think would work better on the platform.” While the biggest demographic of her fans were in their early to late twenties she also had recently gained more younger fans and due to the fact that the majority of people on tik tok were of the younger sort so she wanted to do something that they could partake in without it being inappropriate that would promote Isabel’s music at the same time. It seemed like a good idea to her, which is why she wanted to meet with Kyra personally.

At times like this she did wonder what it would be like to just be normal. Without everyone knowing who she was. “Are you sure you don’t mind me being here? You don’t think anyone will be able to recognise me, right?” Isabel had done her best to blend in with the upcoming crowd, hair back, huge sunglasses hiding half of her face. It was done intentionally so as to not disrupt the live taping. She was genuinely curious to see it, wondering what topic they were going to cover today. Isabel had purposely refrained from asking, wanting to be surprised and not get tempted into researching it beforehand.

While Melina had told her that Kit Donovan would be attending the live taping of her Podcast, Isabel did not think he would actually show up. Of course she kept her lips sealed as she didn’t want to ruin her friend’s excitement. She came in a little early, sunglasses on her face and hair tied back into a ponytail, doing her best to dress ‘New-York-casual’ so she would blend in with the crowd instead of having the attention be diverted to her. She was standing in the corner when she noticed Kit come in, walking over to him, arms crossed with a nonchalant tone. “Fancy seeing you here.” She had to make sure that he had good intentions and wasn’t giving Mel false hope.

While she was in New York her team suggested for her to hire a stylist and have her pull a few looks for her to be photographed in when she went in and out of the studio since she didn’t take her entire wardrobe with her. When there were too many paparazzi outside the door she used the back exit, not wanting to get overrun. While most of the looks were street style, some of them were more cocktail and evening dresses and she prepared those for Melina. She could tell her friend was excited about this and even though she wasn’t sure Kit was interested at all, Isabel didn’t want to crush her dreams. Maybe if Melina was dressed to the nines he’d see what he was missing out on. Giving her friend a quick hug she grinned. “I’m your personal stylist today,”

(  anne winters, female, she/her  ) — a member of the  [  Dubois  ]  family claims membership to the society !  [  Isabel  ]  is a  [ 26 ]  year old   [ Singer/Songwriter ]  who hails from  [  New Orleans  ]  ,  who call them  [  the songbird  ]  .  although their peers know them for being  [  passionate  ]  and  [ empathetic  ]  ,  their reputation for being  [  perfectionist ]  and  [  controlling  ]  might prove intimidating for new initiates. while the  [  Dubois  ]  family is known for  [  being a grammy winning singer  ]  ,  the society’s own  [ colibri ]  is better remembered by  [ lyrics scribbled down everywhere, notebooks full of songs and poetry, the act of physically bringing her words down on paper, champagne swirling around in a crystal glass,  ]  .  having been a member for  [  one year ]  now,  [  Isabel  ]  has managed to attain  [ 5 grammy winning albums ]  —  no doubt through the help of the society, wouldn’t you think ?    ———   ( lynn, gmt+2, 21, she/her )

Isabel was on X-Factor as a 14 year old and won the show alongside the record deal that came out of it 

she’s been interested in music since she was 4, heavily pushed by her parents to take piano and violin lessons, by the time she was six voice and dance lessons were added onto this 

she’s never had a typical childhood, something she still regrets, and due to getting famous as a teen it made it impossible for her to just be a normal child

most of the money she made in her early career she didn’t have access to since her parents handled her finances, which she later found out meant that they took a majority of her money. they claim they “took back what they invested” 

when she found out she was extremely upset and felt used by them. So as soon as she turned 18 she hired the best lawyer she could find to financially seperate her income from her parents so that they would not have the access to her bank account and her life anymore. 

she hasn’t spoken to her parents in 5 years despite her father or her mother trying to reach out to her on multiple occasions  

she refused to let them ruin music for her and that whole ordeal brought her her second grammy winning album 

also her voice claim is faouzia  ;; her french voiceclaim is Louane 

due to her parents taking control of most of her early life she is a bit of a control freak now, especially when it comes to her music

connections: 

lawyer: Thomas Ward, he helped her get away from her parents and secured her future earnings from their access. 

friends: Asher O’Connor, Juliette Beauchamp, 

ex boyfriend: Jordan Sheppard, they dated a couple of years ago after being friends for a while and decided that they were better of as friends. They are on good terms and there’s no hard feelings there.
