Style
Jo thinks she is most known for singing pop songs but says that a lot of people have told her she has a "great belting voice perfect for ballads".

Perfect partner
Jo would love to be paired with someone like Sid Owen, Shane Richie or Nigel Harman. "I really want someone who is up for a laugh; a cheeky-chappy from the East End would be great!"

Musical influences
Jo is inspired by singers like Karen Carpenter, Eva Cassidy and Katie Melua, and loves the classic songs of Motown. More recently she enjoys listening to Limp Bizkit, The Streets and The Kaiser Chiefs.

On taking part
Jo says she's taking part in Just The Two Of Us "for the craic". She doesn't know what to expect but says she is extremely nervous as she is stepping into the unknown.

In it to win it
"I'm not generally a competitive person because I've always been in a group environment and so never had to prove myself. I reckon if someone is doing better than me and sings better than I do on the night, the competitive streak might come out in me!"
