Interview with Kimberley on Shrek and travelling with Girls Aloud
The newest star of Shrek the Musical tells Rupert Murray about her travels with Girls Aloud and swapping massive arenas for the intimate West End.
Kimberley Walsh is best known for being one-fifth of the UK’s most successful girl band. Since being plucked from obscurity on one of Simon Cowell’s early talent shows, Popstars :The Rivals, she has travelled the world with Cheryl, Sarah, Nicola and Nadine performing to huge audiences in exotic locations. With the girls taking a break to pursue personal dreams, Kimberly has found her way back to the West End and Shrek the Musical – playing the role of Princess, naturally. Aspire caught up with her in the ogre’s lair to find out where the pop princess spends her downtime.
How did you feel the first time you walked onto the stage?
Scared, excited, happy and nervous. I knew the girls and my family were all in the audience cheering me on, so that helped settle the butterflies!
How does it compare to performing at venues such as Wembley and the O2?
It’s always so strange performing without the girls, although because this is a theatre show and so different to anything I did in Girls Aloud, it feels okay. It’s a more intimate experience, and I love to hear the audience’s interaction, you don’t necessarily get that at the O2.
Are you a musical theatre fan? If so which are your favourites?
I’ve always loved the theatre. I played the role of Eponine in Les Misérables for TV show Passions of Girls Aloud; the role of Young Cosette in Les Misérables when I was 12, and I appeared in the touring production of Evita aged 14.
What would help travel agents persuade clients that the West End, and Shrek, is a must-do experience?
It is a great thing to do with the whole family. There’s something in the show to keep everyone entertained. Shrek combines the long-standing West End theatre tradition while incorporating a modern moral message. Also going to the theatre is quintessentially English!
Kimberley Walsh extends her stay as Princess Fiona!
Kimberley Walsh has been ‘Princess Fiona’ at Shrek The Musical in London since 5th October. She was meant to complete her role on 27th February 2012, but it has just been announced she will extend her stay!
She will now play the green ogre until Monday 21st May 2012!

Kimba recently sent a message (via @welovepop) to thank fans who have gone to support her (some have seen her 2 or 3 times!)
Hey guys. Thanks for all your amazing support since I started Shrek. Who’s started their Xmas shopping? Not me – eek!
Antonio Banderas meets Kimberley at Shrek the Musical
He flew into London to promote his latest animated movie at the Puss In Boots premiere in Leicester Square on Thursday night.
And Antonio Banderas made sure he made the most of his visit, by going to meet Kimberley Walsh and the rest of the Shrek the Musical cast prior to his red carpet duties.
The Hollywood star posed for photos with the Girls Aloud beauty, who stood in her Princess Fiona costume alongside castmates Richard Blackwood and Nigel Lindsay.
And Kimberley looked full of glee backstage at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, where the production is staged, as the 51-year-old came to pay tribute to the cast.
Walsh, who celebrated her 30th birthday at the weekend, was dressed in her green costume with red wig and crown as she greeted The Mask of Zorro actor, who voices the title character in the spin-off Shrek movie.
