Hey TGs!
Once upon a time, I did ballet. Was I good at ballet? No, I was not. You guys,
I was terrible, amazingly bad, an awful dancer. Maybe the worst. But I still
loved dancing and, you know what, I think there’s something good about
trying (and even struggling) with something you find hard, but that you want
to do anyway. This is the BIG LEAPS issue and it’s for the girls who love to
move. Ever think about how every big leap is made up of smaller ones?
Think about it and bust a move today!
XO Claire and Team TG

ANCING TO THEIR OWN BEAT
The Ziegler sisters have taken leaps in life, dance and now in the wor y
teaming up to create a new scent. They chat to TG about their latest collab.
Hi girls! So Maddie, last year you released
your own Impulse Body Spray and now it’s
Kenzie’s turn. Tell us about it.
Maddie: I was so excited to work on this
collaboration with Kenzie. We had so much fun
coming up with surprise combinations for our new
body spray and we loved filming the campaign
video [TG note: read TG’s Rosie’s hilar take on
the vid at totalgirl.com.au]. We loved working
together as well, because [we don’t] as much as Impulse x
we used to. Mackenzie Ziegler
body spray, $4.99
What is it like working together now?
M: When we were little, Kenzie and I used to
fight all the time when we worked together. We Impulse x
Maddie Ziegler
still have our moments but now you look back body spray, $4.99
and it’s like why did we fight? We understand
and respect each other more. Now look at us,
we’re BFFs!
Kenzie, ‘Burnt Marshmallow & Leather Jacket’? What
was the inspo behind your unique scent?
Kenzie: I was thinking about how I love marshmallow, and
leather jackets have a really cool scent. So we were mixing it
together and it actually smells really good. It was all so fun and
I can’t wait for everyone to try it.
Maddie, tell us about your scent, ‘Lotus Flower & Lime’?
M: Mine’s a little more simple. I love a sweet scent and it was
the perfect combination.
“Wow, Maddie, meditating
is so sublime.”
From your scents, we’re getting the
vibe that Kenzie is the edgy one
and Maddie is a little more zen. Is
that right?
M: It’s funny coz of our zodiac signs –
I’m a Libra and I’m a little more relaxed
and Kenzie is a Gemini and a little more
crazy, so I guess our scents represent
our personality as well.

DANCING TO THEIR OWN BE T
Now Maddie’s the
queen of expression! Kenzie latest EP proves
big leaps do pay off .
You have both achieved so much in life. When was a time
you trusted your instincts and it paid off?
M: When I did ‘Chandelier’ I was scared getting into it, it was all
new to me. I was nervous to express myself but once I did, I was
so happy. I went forward even though I was second-guessing
myself and it was an amazing outcome.
K: I’ve been writing a lot of music and I went into writing not
knowing what to do. But in the end, it all paid off. It can be
very scary coming out with new music but I’m happy and have
received lots of amazing feedback and so it has all worked out.
What advice do you have for TGs wanting to try dance
or a new sport but don’t feel confident enough?
K: I wasn’t very confident when I first started doing comps and
dancing, but I found my passion for dance again after getting
back into it. Put yourself out there, don’t be afraid, because if
you love something then you should give it a go.
M: There have definitely been times I’ve felt really
stuck or in a rut. Go back and remember why you
love it, why you started. I have an amazing sister and
amazing friends who inspire me and keep me going,
and I have them to thank for that.
Besides dancing what other sports do you like?
K: I think if I weren’t dancing, I would probably be
doing gymnastics or soccer.
PHOTOGRAPHY INSTRAGRAM.COM/MADDIEZIEGLER
M: I think we were meant to be dancers, but I would
probably try basketball.
“Smelly sneakers? I think this
de-feets the purpose, Kenzie!”
Lastly, any plans on visiting Australia or NZ?
K: We love Australia and New Zealand, we don’t
have plans right now but hopefully we can come
back soon.
M: It’s our favourite place to go so any chance
or opportunity we can go and visit, obviously we
will take it.

BORINGALBUM
Regurgitator’s Pogogo Show
Don’t let the name fool you. This is a really fun, wacky and diverse album. In
fact, it’s the complete opposite of boring! Covering sah many musical styles,
from hip-hop to rock, these songs will have you tearing up the dance floor while
clutching your belly laughing. Not only is it a magical musical mishmash, it
tackles very important topics with songs titled ‘Farting Is A Part Of Life’ and
‘Pigeon Riding On A Motorcycle’. LOL!
‘SOAMI’
Ava Max
This rising pop star’s latest single shows it’s OK to be different. The pop song
gives hope, uplifting anyone who feels out of place, and telling them, “You
don’t have to fit the format. Oh, but it’s okay to be different, coz baby so am I.”
That’s a message we can totes get behind! Oh, and we shouldn’t forget to
mention that the song is a solid pop tune as well!
FREESPIRIT
Khalid
His domination of the pop charts continues with a second long-player, the
follow up to 2017’s American Teen. Building on his first album, Free Spirit
steps up the quality of production, which makes his genre-hoping style soar
like the free spirit it is. The smooth synths and beats gently lift Khalid’s
serenading to the heavens – this is the ultimate soundtrack for chilled vibes.
Our fave track is ‘Talk’, which features UK duo Disclosure!

The galaxy defenders return with a new pair of heroes in MIB: International.
MIB 101
The Men in Black are a super-secretive
organisation. They are Earth’s last line
of defence against alien baddies, and
caretakers of the extraterrestrials that
live among us; some of which even work
for MIB. Their goal is to keep the peace
between worlds by any means necessary,
which sometimes involves using some
pretty advanced tech, like the neuralyzer – a
small pen-like gadget that wipes people’s
memories. It’s one of the reasons they are
the best-kept secret in the universe!
ORIGINS
MIB: International is the fourth film in the franchise and
“WE ARE A the first to explore the organisations in other countries
RUMOUR, than the US. While the first three flicks focused mostly on
Agent J and K, International brings two new agents into
RECOGNISABLE the fold: Agent H and M. You will know them from Thor:
ONLY AS DÉJÀ VU Ragnarok, Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson.
AND DISMISSED
JUST AS QUICKLY.”
– AGENT O
24
THE GOSS
New recruit Agent M (Tessa Thompson) is assigned to the
UK MIB office and partnered with the calm and casual
Agent H (Chris Hemsworth). Together, they must seek out
a mole within the agency that threatens both humanity
and the Men in Black! Head honcho of the US office, Agent
O (Emma Thompson), is also back after her appearance
in the third film. Oh, we will also get to see those wise-
talking, coffee-drinking worms again, too!
WHAT TO EXPECT
The films have always managed
to tie together humour, sci-fi
and action into a neat package.
LOL-worthy one-liners, an array of
bizarre looking alien species and
an assortment of tech that would
make Batman blush, are set to
return to the screen again with
MIB: International, only this time
we will see it all on a global scale!
