Head inside to check out 10 interesting facts about Cloe Wilder…
- I get milkshakes after almost every show I play. It quickly became a favorite tradition and I love that we still do it.
- I was technically named after a Bratz doll. My name was going to be spelled the usual way, “Chloe,” but my older sister changed it. She wrote me messages when my mom was pregnant with me, but spelled my name as “Cloe,” because she played with that Bratz doll. I think it’s pretty cute.
- My first favorite song was “Love Story” by Taylor Swift. When I was really little, I watched the VH1 video countdown every Sunday. That song blew my mind! I would recreate the video and perform it all the time.
- I have a cat named Iris. She’s my pride and joy. I adopted her three years ago and we are inseparable. She was a bit of an impulse purchase, but definitely the best $50 I ever spent!
- My favorite book is Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky. That’ll give you a good cry.
- I love Johnny Cash. My grandpa was a big fan and I sort of grew up on it.
- I went on tour this year and I would like to be on tour forever.
- I have a bubblegum pink piano! I think that says a lot about me.
- I’m wearing a Graceland sweatshirt right now. We went there on tour and it was amazing.
- I wear my great-grandma’s pearls at every show. My grandma gave them to me before I left for the tour. I thought that was the most beautiful gift. They’re my good luck charm.
