=__ Introduction __ = What **band** is as popular for children as it is for adults? If you said **K3**, you are right! The music of k3 is mostly **child pop**, but still very popular at all ages. This **band** is over 10 years old and consists of three singers named **Kathleen**, **Karen** & **Kristen**. They have a program that is called "**studio 100**" and that program sends out the preformances of **K3**. What they send out is mostly just a couple of songs. In **Nothern Europe;** almost all girls below the age of 7 love **K3**. It's so that every night when **studio 100** sends out programs, one of them is **K3 a**ll the girls dance and sing. **K3** was a popular **band**; but now **Kathleen Aerts**, the blond singer left the group. However, **Karen** and **Kristel** found another good singer and the name changed to K2.

=__ Who is K3? __= The **band**, **K3**, is made up of three singers from Belgium and the new singer, **Josje Huisman** is from The Netherlands. There is a reason that this band is called **K3** because, and their name all starts with K: **Karen**, Kristen & **Kathleen**. They are three singers. It’s a coincidence that their names all start with k. It wasn’t hard to come up with a name= **k3** Is a sucsessfull singer in the band **K3**. She 35 years old and was born on October 28 1974. She was born in Gent, Belgium Some interesting facts are that **Karen Damen** has a tongue piercing and she has a tatoo. She died her hair around 3 times. She is known as the tatoo person in k3.

Was born on June 18th 1978 in Geel (Belgium) Also part of a successful Belgian girl trio: K3. But now broke everything because she left. She is going to get married in January. Kathleen is the not very popular anymore, be cause she broke k3 apart. But with her new job she also sings with the kids.

 * Kristel** is the most popular woman in **K3**.

=__ History of K3: __= **K3** all started with **Niels William**. He found the girls and found out they could sing very well. After a couple of month he found **3 woman**, in addition he knew a perfect name: **K3** Miguel Wiels writes de music for K3 together with his 2 college’s alain van de putte and peter Gillis. They have a tv series called **studio 100**. **Studio 100** is a studio and it sends out a lot of programs wich children really like. One of the programs is of course **K3**! The **three woman** are best friends, they grew up with each other and they said they will always stay together. K3 is mostly popular in Holland and Belgium; Northern Europe because the girls sing in Vlaams. Vlaams is one of the language they speak in Belgium, and Dutch is kind of the same.

=__ Audience __= **K3** They sing a lot of dance/pop songs. It’s also called **childpop** but some people say it’s too childish. Though in the Netherlands a lot of children listen to the music. They also have a lot of performance in Holland or Belgium. You can buy a lot of things with a picture of them. For example; T-shirts, Glasses, Bags etc.

=__ K3 now __= On Monday March 23, 2009, **Kathleen**, the blonde singer, told the group that she was leaving. She said it was a hard decision but she had the best years of her life with **K3**. **Kathleen** signed up for Unicef ambassadorshipand is stopping with singing. This was there farewell song: …. [] Her name was **Josje huisman**, a Dutch girl. Now the name is K2+**Josje**.
 * Kristen** & **Kathleen** are searching for a new member their show is called “**K2 is looking for K3**.” But after a couple of weeks they had found the perfect one.

=__ Conclusion __= Now that everything has changed, the group looks back at all their special memories they had together, their first performance and their last performance and every other performance. Because now **Kathleen aerts** is gone **Josje Huisman** took her place. Their first song was called "mamase". It's not the same style as the old **k3** used to sing. The difference is that now they sing something that's not in any language, it's just made up. It's sad but maybe kids can get used to it. You can see on this picture below that **Kristel** and **Karen** are happy with **Josje Huisman**!
