Myleene Klass has boldly declared she’s “not afraid to use]her] voice” to challenge inappropriate behaviour in the music industry.
The 46 year old star, who shot to fame in the early noughties with pop group Hear’Say, isn’t shocked by the recent revelations of showbiz’s darker side.
On ‘ The Final FronTia with Tia Kof ‘ podcast, Myleene shared insights from her time in Hear’Say: “In my Hear’Say diaries there’s stuff that is redacted, or there are certain names that we give people.
” There was one person who was known as Mr. Tickle, because they had long reaching arms. I’ll let you fill in the gaps. But you’re aware that now that everyone’s identities are beginning to be revealed, it’s no surprise to me. You can see it unravelling. “She confidently stated:” I’m not frightened of using a voice now, which I didn’t have a long time ago. “
As a mother to Ava, 17, Hero, 13, from her previous marriage to Graham Quinn, and Apollo, 5, with fiance Simon Motson, Myleene, who was honoured with an MBE for her advocacy on women’s health following four miscarriages, aims to” extend the ladder “to those following in her footsteps.
Myleene expressed her newfound boldness:” I’m a mum now of three and I’ve earned my stripes. You just get ballsy. All of that makes you fearless. I don’t care what people think, and it’s a really liberating place to be in, because then you can call the shots. It’s actually quite fun calling it out, because you can then affect change. “
“And then someone gives you an MBE for causing that change, and then you can cause even more change.” It’s not about escalating in the opposite direction. It’s about extending it down and going ‘ come on’, because it’s really lonely. “
After years of personal experience, the “Pure and Simple” hitmaker continued to offer her insights on the dangers of the entertainment sector, calling it “a dangerous place due to its lack of regulation.”
She shared:” I’ve been doing this for 24 years now, so I do think I’m really lucky. Although it’s the most incredible industry to work in, it can also be one that is extremely dangerous. So unregulated. If you have an issue, if you’re treated badly, if something goes wrong, who do you speak to? There’s no HR department. When people start spiralling, they can’t go and speak to their line manager. That person doesn’t exist. “
