Biography
Frost loved music from an early age. Her earliest concert experience was when her father took her to a Level 42 concert at the age of nine.[1] Sport and dancing were Frost's favourite activities, however modelling was her dream. After attending St Monica's High School she started to work for the BBC Television doing the Holiday programme and traveling around the world.

Precious and Atomic Kitten
Frost started her musical career in 1998 in the group Precious, which became famous as the UK entry at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1999, with the song "Say It Again". The song was a top 10 hit in the UK Singles Chart, though it flopped at the contest itself, finishing only twelfth. Subsequent releases by Precious enjoyed only modest success, and their debut album failed to chart at all, ultimately leading the group to go their separate ways in 2001. Frost moved on by replacing Kerry Katona in Atomic Kitten in 2001. After the release of their third studio album, Atomic Kitten decided to take a break in 2004 and now only perform together on an occasional basis.
[edit]
Solo career
After the split of Atomic Kitten, Frost embarked on a solo career and released her first single "Crash Landing" on 10 October 2005, which failed to reach the Top 40. Frost originally recorded the song for the band Route 1, but decided to remake it and shoot a video for the song which featured her in a spaceship in a pink/purple setting.
In February 2009 Jenny Frost stated that she did not want to continue her work in the music as a solo artist and she wanted to stay in the music industry only as a member of Atomic Kitten.
[edit]
Other work
She appeared on the 2005 edition of I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! on the ITV network. Frost is also part of Storm Model Management and does various modeling assignments, for example being the face of Playboy's underwear range.[2][3]
[edit]
Television Presenting
After Atomic Kitten's brief reunion in 2008, Frost stated she wanted to concentrate on a television presenting career. From July 2008, she has presented the very successful BBC Three programme Snog Marry Avoid?. The series returned to BBC Three in February 2009 for a second series. A third series started on the 4 February 2010.
[edit]
Personal life
Frost became engaged to DJ Dominic Thrupp in 2002 with plans to marry.[4] The wedding was due to take place in January 2010 but was hastily cancelled following the death of Frost's mother.[5]
In September 2007, Frost confirmed on the television show, Loose Women, that she was expecting a baby boy. Her son, Caspar J. Thrupp was born on 9 October 2007.[6]
