"This is such a vital time where they have got to get their heads down and really work on making an amazing album," she said. "They need to enjoy themselves. There are a lot of changes that they are going to go through in their lives. Their lives have obviously changed drastically overnight."
Asked what advice she would give the girl group, Burke said: "It's a matter of keeping those who you trust and love dearly close to you, and keeping a great team around you. You should always remember to be yourself; that's the best advice anyone can really give."
