Well, she&#8217;s a little . . .*<strong>cough*awkward*cough</strong>* but that&#8217;s OK with us. Fifth grade is hard enough as it is, but being the only girl going through <strong>puberty</strong> in your class can totally suck. Acne, bra-less boobs, your first period, <strong>crazy hormones</strong> and emotions (or as I call them hormotions) are just a few things we don&#8217;t miss about being <strong>ten years old</strong>. Lucky for us we can relive our finer (umm, most embarrassing) moments through our new BFF Pubey.</p><p>We gave Pubes the <strong>Big Gurl Ten</strong> and she overshared her love of unicorns, Rusty Sprinkler, oh and the time <strong>she ate dog poop</strong>!</p><p><strong>1. What’s your worst date story?</strong><br
/> You just had to rub it in, huh?  I&#8217;ve never been on a date.  Unless you count watching boys skate at a skate park behind a barbed-wired fence.</p><p><strong>2. If you could only have one food for the rest of your life, what would it be? </strong><br
/> I shouldn&#8217;t even have to answer that.  PIZZA.  Duh.</p><p><strong>3. Whose phone number do you wish you had? </strong><br
/> The best, hottest, most talented male singer in the world, Rusty Sprinkler&#8217;s, of course!!!  Sigh, drool, sigh, drool&#8230;<br

class="wp-caption-text">L to R: Julia, Nia, Miranda, Rena</p></div>Meet the four mega talented musicians from the all-girl, metal rock band <strong>Cherri Bomb</strong>. Julia (lead vocals &#038; guitar), Miranda (guitar), Nia (drums), and Rena (bass) are Los Angeles&#8217; newest generation of rock and roll. They&#8217;re a bite-sized cross between The Runaways, <strong>Paramore</strong>, and The Pretty Reckless. We&#8217;re stoked to see where these ladies are headed in the next couple of years.</p><p>When the girls&#8217; average age was just <strong>13 years old</strong>, Cherri Bomb signed a recording contract with Hollywood Records&#8211;making them the youngest act on the label! Not only impressive, but pretty bad ass. To add to the epicness, they&#8217;ve opened for the <strong>Foo Fighters</strong>&#8211;yes, they&#8217;ve hung with Dave Grohl, Filter, and the Smashing Pumpkins (Umm, how old are they again?).</p><p>We can <strong>totally relate</strong> to being the punky-alternative girl in high school so nothing excites us more than chicks playing their own instruments, writing their own songs, and <strong>fearlessly</strong> being a little different. We gave the Los Angeles-based quartet our <strong>Big Gurl Ten</strong> and the rocker chicks dished on their best advice from Gavin Rossdale (Mr. Gwen Stefani himself), chainsaws, A.D.D., and of course, <strong>Josh Hutcherson</strong>.</p><p><div

/> <strong>Nia:</strong> Don&#8217;t take any wooden nickels.<br
/> <strong>Rena:</strong> Gavin Rossdale from Bush told us to stay as cool as we are and always be humble because it&#8217;s disarming and people don&#8217;t expect it.  Great advice!!</p><p><strong>8. Favorite bargain purchase? </strong><br

class="wp-caption-text">We&#039;re digging the turban.</p></div>Basically <strong>Sabi </strong>is the invisible vocalist of the moment who is about to appear. Yeah, she&#8217;s &#8220;that girl&#8221; on the <strong>Cobra Starship</strong> single &#8220;You Make Me Feel. . .&#8221;, is featured on <strong>Brit-Brit&#8217;s</strong> (Miss Spears) Femme Fatale fave &#8220;(Drop Dead) Gorgeous&#8221; and now Sabi has just dropped another single with Wale called &#8220;Where They Do That At&#8221;. The major up-and-comer is signed to <strong>Warner Bros. Records</strong> and is expected to release her debut album this year. If it&#8217;s as good as any of her track features we&#8217;re sure it will be majorly fierce, <strong>R&#038;B and pop</strong> a la Aaliyah, Beyonce, and Ciara.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>1. What’s your worst date story?</strong><br
/> I was in college, I didn’t have a boyfriend at the time, so one of my girlfriends set me up with some random dude. And he was really cool until we went to the dance floor. I like to dance but he just thought it was okay to grab me and touch me. He just got out of line and that was a wrap. I stopped dancing but he was just standing, trying to be hard and play it off. . . he got moody and said, “I was going to leave, anyways.” That was the worst.</p><p><strong>2. If you could only have one food for the rest of your life, what would it be?</strong><br
/> Ooh, that’s hard.  Question is would I gain weight?  Haha.  I guess I would have to say Sushi.</p><p><strong>3. Whose phone number do you wish you had?</strong><br
/> I would want someone on my team who I could call for advice in the game…Drake. I feel like he could help me with lyrics and tell me how the game works. I think I would learn a lot.<br

The <em>Disney&#8217;s <strong>My Babysitter&#8217;s a Vampire</strong></em> star is a little too laid back to be a real bloodsucker. When she&#8217;s not battling zombies, demons, and ghosts the Canadian singer-actress spends her time on both the big and small screens.</p><p>You  may have seen her play a young Halle Berry in the feature film <em><strong>Frankie and Alice</strong></em>, Amanda Pierce on the Canadian teen sitcom <em>The Latest Buzz</em> or popular mean girl Marion Hawthorne in <em>Harriet The Spy: Blog Wars</em>.</p><p>We gave Vanessa the <strong>Big Gurl Ten</strong> and she told us all about her love of different foods, Oprah, and her secret tip to getting cute nails without having to go to the salon.</p><p><strong>1.) What’s your worst date story?</strong><br
/> I haven’t dated too much, and the one’s I have been on all the guys have been very nice. I guess I’m lucky.</p><p><strong>2.) If you could only have one drink for the rest of your life, what would it be?</strong><br
