7:14 PM Foxes to appear in Doctor Who - but who is she? | |
With the news that singer-songwriter Foxes will make her TV acting debut in an upcoming episode of Doctor Who, Digital Spy brings you everything you need to know about the vulpine-named musical starlet.  So who is Foxes, anyway? Foxes is a 25-year-old Londoner (originally from Southampton) whose mum knows her as Louisa Rose Allen. She uses the stage name Foxes so she doesn't get muddled up with Lily Rose Allen, and because her mum had a weird dream about foxes one time. She confesses to writing "songs that make you feel like everything's s**t at the beginning and then everything's great by the end". Her debut album's out now but you've probably already heard her on songs like Zedd's 'Clarity'. Do any of the bin-delving, urban mammals appear in her band as her namesake suggests? Don't be silly. Foxes don't have opposable thumbs to be certified rock 'n' rollers, something the Cadbury gorilla has smugly proven isn't the case for primates.  Which songs of hers I should check out? Foxes' 'Holding Onto Heaven' is a twinkly ballad with a killer chorus that the singer just so happened to give away for free at Christmas in a show of good will. 'Let Go For Tonight' tipped the singer into the top 10 but it was her appearance on Zedd's 'Clarity' that earned her a nice shiny Grammy. So why is she going to appear on Doctor Who? It all came about from a chance encounter. Foxes happened to get chatting to the show's production team, who were watching her at one of her gigs. The singer revealed to them just how much she loved Doctor Who, and before she knew it she'd been invited to guest star. Some people have all the luck. Can she time travel? Well, according to the approximation of semi-classical gravity... no, we don't believe Foxes can travel through time and space. Or if she can she's doing a darn good job of hiding it. Then again, her current single does boast about "holding onto heaven", which would be quite the physical feat to witness. | |
