DishDiva : AllForAshBaby Asks: Hi! Who are you closest to in the group? Luv ya! -Janine

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : Thank You .. I love you too and I'm close with all the guys but I'd probably have to say on the road that Eric and I get along the best on the road because of our sense of humor....

DishDiva : Sweetgirl02 Asks: If you weren't singing, what would you like to be doing? Luv ya lots!

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : but i'm close with all the guys I would be 'trying' to sing and I would be trying to break into the business I'd be doing either music or acting...

DishDiva : Taylor asks: Tell us how you got discovered!

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : I found out about the National Talent search that they were doing for this show and I flew to Las Vegas Nevada

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : From there I auditioned with a lot of guys , about 150 guys, and I auditioned to be part of the 25 semi-finalists to compete in the five spots in this new band

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : Thats when I met Lupe Roman and I guess that's when he discovered me ... .

DishDiva : Silly Asks: Where do you get your drive to succeed from?

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : I think I've always beene really motivated all through school and in my jobs and I've always wanted to be the best and I've just been naturally competative and I think that carried through here . It was a lot in the way I was raised .

DishDiva : Guest_i_love_you_ashley Asks: Who does the most talking on the phone??? Have a good summer.

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : I'll put it this way...We ALL run out of minutes on our cell phone and we occassionally all get our cell phones turned off cause we use the maximum allowable minutes possible...

DishDiva : ashleys_angel_3 Asks: Ashley, was all the shower footage from one shower? Luv ya. Tara & Dana

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : Love you too and I think that that shower footage was from a couple different showers

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : I would shower and they would come in and shoot while I was in the shower...

DishDiva : Guest_OTOWNSaNGEL Asks: Whats the craziest thing a fan has done to meet you ?

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : We were in Canada and these girls were trying to think of a different gift that they could get us that would stand out and they got us a hamster and they called us the O'Town official mascot and we've had fans rent rooms in our hotels I'd say the hamster is definitely up there as the original idea from fans.

DishDiva : OTownChic5 Asks: Hey Ashley! What colonge do you use?

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : I use Aqua deGio and I also use Perry Ellis

DishDiva : MrsAshleyParkerAngel Asks: Hi Ash! If u could choose between Christina or Britney, who would u pick? Love ya!!!

DishDiva : Guest_OTownIsStellar Asks: Hey Ashley! We're the girls who made you the huge cookies and cake! We were wondering if you are going to be using any of the footage from the "Ashley Cam" for either tour video or a follow-up to your tv series. Miss U! See you soon!-Deanna, Geena, Marisa

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : Definitely we are hoping to put out a video or DVD of some never before seen footage of making the band and will be some footage from us on the road and on tour and the recording studio so that'll be cool ...

DishDiva : SweetAngel1289 Asks: Hey Ash, when you were in the house for the filming of making the band, did it annoy you, or after a while did you get used to it??

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : sometimes its annoying only because of the lack of privacy but everyone that we worked with was very understanding, very cool, and after the first couple weeks we got used to it and it became our everyday life.

DishDiva : Ashleyz_Angel_4ever Asks: Ashley, if you could switch places with anyone in the world who would it be and why ?

I would say that I wouldnt switch, i would be me. If i had the opportunity I would just be me because I'm very happy in my life which who I am and my family .. I wouldnt switch places with anybody I could never give that up.

DishDiva : FootballLuvinGirl Asks: Are you and Shelli still together (you dont have to answer this)

Guest_Ashley_Parker_Angel : Actually I cant answer that because ABC wont let us say anything that hasn't been on the show yet. Coming up in some episodes that question will be answered.
