BRITTANY LYNNE HARGEST Talk about a quick study. Brittany Hargest took up singing and dance lessons at the tender age of two, and almost immediately began appearing in commercials and music videos. Like her group mates, Brittany studied voice, piano, guitar, gymnastics, and dance, becoming in time a seasoned stage presence. "Performing gives me a rush," she says. "It creates this huge amount of energy." Being in Jump5 has meant dealing with the whirlwind of success, but it's been made easier for Brittany because of the closeness the group members share. "We work together well," she notes, "because we've known each other forever." As for having a brother in the group, she says, " I get to have part of my family traveling around with me. But Brandon isn't overprotective." Brittany enjoys other pursuits beyond music, including fashion design and interior decorating. But her main message to kids is remarkably sophisticated for a 14-year-old: "As a kid, don't take life for granted," she says. "Have fun with every moment of your life. Don't take things too seriously. And always be yourself."

But nothing beats her experience with Jump5. "I'm having so much fun," says Lesley. "My friends and family keep me grounded." Traveling is one of the fringe benefits of being in Jump5, according to Lesley. "I love to see the sights in this country," she says. "I love to hear the different accents. Of course, I don't think I have one, but other people say I sound so country!" Most important for Lesley is sharing her enthusiasm and hopeful spirit with kids everywhere.

ELIZABETH LYNN HODGES Libby doesn't remember how old she was when she started singing. "I guess when I began to talk," she laughs. "I was obsessed with Gloria Estefan, and I would always sing along, even if I wasn't in tune." By age five, she was hard at work in dance class. Following in the footsteps of her singer/actress mother, Libby became a regular in the local studios, recording a self-titled CD while in third grade and starring in several TV commercials. Having know her Jump5 colleagues for so long, the group's hectic schedule feels more like play than work. "We work really hard," says Libby, "but we get along so well, it's all worth it. We love what we do, but we don't let it get to our heads and we don't take it too seriously." On stage and off, Libby's group mates look up to her.
