Before I came over here I just finished recording my second album so that'll come out later this year in Australia and I also go into a second season of The Wizard of Oz where I am playing Dorothy so I've got 4 months in Melbourne, which is another city in Australia.\"\u003cbr/\u003e13. Video clip - Nikki Webster - 'Strawberry Kisses'\u003cbr/\u003eIf you thought Charlotte Church and Britney Spears were precocious, you obviously know nothing of an Australian teenager called NIKKI WEBSTER. \u003cbr/\u003eAt just fourteen years old, Nikki has just seen her first single, 'Strawberry Kisses', go platinum after debuting at number two in the Australian charts.\u003cbr/\u003eAnd In case you think you remember something rude about Strawberry Kisses from your days in the playground, Nikki Webster would like to put your mind at rest: \u003cbr/\u003e\"'Strawberry Kisses' is all about a girl telling a boy who is her best friend, how much she misses him when he goes away, \" she explains, \"and how much she loves having him as a best friend, it's a real cutesy song and things like that. A strawberry kiss is a blow kiss so she blows him strawberry kisses when he's away.\"\u003cbr/\u003eBut there's no \"blow kissing\" in the video, and no soppy best friend either. Instead, Nikki sings to a 3 three foot high animated alien in the Mark Hartley directed promo.\u003cbr/\u003eWebster explains: \"Well it's set in space and I'm singing to a 3D image, his name is DJ and so he's all built on the computer so he wasn't actually there when I was filming it. They'd sort of go 'he'll be this height' and 'at this point you'll be kissing him' and things like that and I'd be like Ok. But the final product was amazing and it did really well and I had all of my friends all dressed in space suits who were my dancers so they had a great time as well.\"\u003cbr/\u003eNikki Webster may be too young to finish her homework without nagging, but she had no trouble finishing an album to go with her platinum single.\u003cbr/\u003e\"The album is called 'Follow Your Heart' and it's got sort of a mixture of songs - a couple of pop songs and also a few ballads as well. The album is mainly based all about friendship and family and how you much you need that support around you and that's basically what I'm trying to get across, because I had so many friends and family backing me all the time and supporting me that I think I would love to share that with all of my fans.\"\u003cbr/\u003eAnd her taste of stardom has also brought her friendship with one of Australia's sexiest exports: \"Kylie Minogue is one of my idols and I was lucky enough to meet her through the closing ceremony of the Olympics and we've stayed in contact ever since via the email so she's a beautiful person.\"\u003cbr/\u003eBut Kylie had better watch out  as Nikki's already got a very impressive resume, and she show's no signs of stopping. \u003cbr/\u003eHer family have been backing her since she her first starring role, in a stage version of Cinderella - at just seven years of age. Since then Nikki Webster has been on the Britney spears fast-track to early pop success: She appeared in Aladdin at the Sydney state theatre, sang with Michael Jackson on his HIStory tour, performed at the Theatre Royal Sydney in Les Miserables and sung with Olivia Newton-John at the Sydney opera house.\u003cbr/\u003eBut Nikki says she's just like any teenager: \u003cbr/\u003e\"I'm still a normal 15 year old no matter what. I think the only difference is I still go to school, I still go out to movies and things like that I think I'm just doing something extra and it's just something that I love. It doesn't feel like work at all it's a joy and it's a love and that's performing.\"\u003cbr/\u003eWhich is lucky, because she does a lot of performing.\u003cbr/\u003e\"Before I came over here I just finished recording my second album, \" she says, not looking tired at all. \"So that'll come out later this year in Australia and I also go into a second season of The Wizard of Oz where I am playing Dorothy so I've got 4 months in Melbourne, which is another city in Australia.\"\u003cbr/\u003e'Strawberry Kisses' is on release in Britain now. \u003cbr/\u003eTITLE: Strawberry
