Nylon Pink Exclusive Interview
1. What challenges do you guys face being an all girl band?

Katt: Oh no! haha Hmmm not sure if I want to give it away…
Jamie: Â All of my first dates have been pretty normal unless you consider go karting and drift races crazy.

Katt: Austraila!!! Â They treated us so well, we ate the best foods, amazing hotels and the crowd at the venues were out of their minds! We MUST MUST MUST go back.

11. Is it safe to say nylon pink is the new Asian sex symbols?
Nylon Pink represents strength and femininity, we use sexual imagery as a way to break stereotypes, yes we can be sexy and edgy, but we are doing it to show that we are in charge of our image and that you can be a talented female musician, and Asian, and not look like cutesy/anime type schoolgirls.
