Early life
Victoria Louise Lott was born in the Bromley area of London on 12 January 1991,[4] the third child of Beverley (née Martin) and stockbroker Stephen Lott.[5] The family moved around the London suburbs, initially living in Petts Wood and then Bickley.[6] Lott was born several weeks premature,[7] and her mother gave her the nickname Pixie because she was "such a tiny, cute baby who looked like a fairy".[8] She started singing in her church school,[8] and attended the Italia Conti Associates Saturday school in Chislehurst when she was five years old. At the age of 11, she was awarded a scholarship and went on to attend its main school, the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts.[9] At the age of 13, Lott moved with her family to Brentwood in Essex where she attended Brentwood County High School.[10] She appeared in a West End production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at the London Palladium and as Louisa von Trapp in BBC One's Celebrate the Sound of Music in 2005, aged 14.[11][2] Despite missing school time because she was recording her album, Lott says she received top marks in her GCSEs.[12]
In 2006, at the age of 15, Lott sang for L. A. Reid after he heard a few of her demos. He then signed her to the Island Def Jam Music Group. After a change of managers, a bidding war ensued and Lott parted ways with the Island Def Jam Music Group, to sign with Mercury Records in the UK and to Interscope Records in the U.S. Lott signed a publishing deal, as a songwriter, with Sony/ATV Music Publishing in December 2007, while writing and recording tracks for Turn It Up. Lott wrote a song for Alexandra Burke's debut album, Overcome (2009), titled "You Broke My Heart" and a song for Girls Can't Catch titled "Happy Alone". She also wrote two tracks on Lisa Lois's (the Dutch X Factor winner) debut album Smoke (2009), titled "No Good For Me" and "Promises, Promises". She also wrote 'We Own the Night' with Toby Gad for Selena Gomez and ended up featuring on the track too for Gomez' album When the Sun Goes Down. Lott played her first festival concert in the Big Top at the Isle of Wight Festival 2009, during her first full British tour, where she supported The Saturdays on The Work Tour.

The single was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry on 28 August 2009 after selling over 200,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[14]

For the new repackaged version of Turn It Up, Lott recorded duets with Jason Derulo and Joe Jonas, though the latter failed to make the final track listing for the album.[32][33] This edition included her single, "Broken Arrow".
