Girls Aloud's Nadine Coyle has opened a scented candle shop in Los Angeles.
The popstar, who already runs a Mexican restaurant in America, wants to create a chain store selling her new products.
She told The Mirror: "I'm so excited about it. LA's the perfect place for it too as people love to get pampered.
"I've already got my brother-in-law to create the decor. He's an artist and does amazing canvases so it will be a proper family business - and really personal.
"I've got my mum to run it while I'm away working with the band. I'll also bring some candles to go in our dressing rooms to calm our nerves before the shows."
However, Coyle insisted that her latest business venture didn't signal the end of her pop career.
"There's no way I'm quitting the band," she added. "The candle shop and my businesses are something else I love to do.
"I'm having such a laugh with the band. Where else can you get your hair and make-up done for free for hours on end, then you go on stage with a great bunch of girls and have a blast?"
