It’s great to see Robbie back in action. As he has said himself, he is not the best singer in the world, but he is a major showman. I just love him. After just watching him perform a medley of his greatest hits live at The Brits 2010, he looks amazing, and he “in the words of the X Factor judges” owned the stage. He did actually sing live, unlike Cheryl Cole who’s lip-synching was no where near the soundtrack, either that or my Sky+ box was really playing up….if that was the reason then I do apologise Cheryl!
Anyway back to Robbie who was awarded with the Mastercard lifetime achievement award, have mentioned how great he looked?
LOL.
Here he is in a clip from Capital FM talking to Margarita Taylor and the Bassman ahead of the glittering ceremony at Earl’s Court. He mentions that he will only be staying at the after show party for 15 minutes as he will be rushing home to watch the Man UTD vs AC Milan match which he is recording.
It’s that time of year again. Spending three hours in a shop trying to decide between Fire-fighters, Piglet or David Beckham. The choice of which calendar you buy is a life changing decision, after all you are the one that has to look at it for the next 12 months before the agonising decision is upon you once again.
The choice is just so hard. If in doubt there is always the new Official 2010 Kylie calendar. I really don’t think I will be buying it though. It looks quite good, much better than the Kylie calendars of recent years.
Since releasing the début album “Bon Jovi” way back in 1984, Bon Jovi are now one of the biggest bands in the world. Gone are Jon’s long flowing locks but he is still as gorgeous as ever at the age of 47. The band have sold 120 million albums and performed to more than 34 million fans in 50 countries to date.
The new album “The Circle” is out now, which features the new single “We Weren’t Born To Follow” which sounds remarkably like some of their old stuff, which means it is brilliant. The album title, Bon Jovi explains, has several meanings: “Some may say that with this album we have come full circle. Others may see The Circle as never ending. I see it as very hard to get in to and even harder to get out of. Having had 5 studio records in this decade, there are songs on each record that represent the world around us. And while they don’t always like what they see, they try hard not to see the cup as half empty.”
The album was released on the released on the 30th of October, the same day as a new documentary and tie-in book “When We Were Beautiful” which is a documentary following the band on their 2007/08 Lost Highway Tour.
Next June, the band will effectively be moving into London’s O2 Arena for a multi-date residency. At the moment, the 10-date stint kicks off on June 7, but with a few gaps in the schedule here and there, don’t be surprised to see that number go up in the coming months.
Boyzone singer Stephen Gately has died in his sleep, following a night out whilst on holiday with his partner, Andrew Cowles, in Majorca.
The circumstances surrounding his death remained unclear but News of the World newspaper reported he died after a night out. Boyzone manager Louis Walsh said “We’re all absolutely devastated.” He said: “I’m in complete shock. I was only with him on Monday at an awards ceremony. We don’t know much about what’s happened yet… He was a great man.”
The rest of the Boyzone members are said to be flying to Majorca this morning, Shane Lynch said: “Me and the boys are flying out in the morning, We just need to get over to where he’s passed and work out what we need to do.”
Stephen married his partner Andrew in a civil ceremony in 2006, after totally devastating most of the UK’s teenage girls with his announcement that he was gay.
He joined Boyzone in 1993 after answering an advert and auditioning in Dublin, the band went on to major success and to date have had six number one singles.
He also went on to star on the west end stage in “Joseph and The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat”.
After 18 long years the Manchester band Oasis have allegedly finally split. Thank god for that.
I am not saying that the boys are not talented and Noel is a great songwriter, but Liam is nothing but a moron (to say the least). After years of fighting and name calling which at times, has interfered with gigs and left fans disappointed with late starts and one of the brothers walking off stage. Fans in Paris were disappointed when they cancelled following a bust-up on Friday. I think it is high time that they finally call it quits.
In thier careers they have collected fifteen NME awards, five BRIT Awards, nine Q Awards and four MTV Europe Music Awards.
In a statement Noel said: “I feel you have the right to know that the level of verbal and violent intimidation towards me, my family, friends and comrades has become intolerable. And the lack of support and understanding from my management and bandmates has left me with no other option than to get me cape and seek pastures new.”
He went on to say the rock group’s success had been a “dream come true”, adding: “I take with me glorious memories.”
Now I am unsure whether this video is a set-up or actually happened. All I know is that if this group of beat-boxing geniuses, who were filmed giving it their all on a local train, entered a talent show like X Factor or Britians Got Talent, they would surely win.
To be perfectly honest I for one have never quite understood the buzz that The Beatles apparently brought to the world. But as The Beatles famous Abbey Road picture celebrated it’s 40th birthday, hundreds of Beatles fans gathered to mark the anniversary of when the zebra crossing shot from the band’s Abbey Road album cover was taken.
People crowded around the crossing and celebrated by singing Beatles songs, causing traffic chaos in the process and four Beatles lookalikes then strolled across the road for the picture reconstruction.
The photographer who took the famous original cover shot was the late Iain Macmillan.
The coveted Silver Clef award has been awarded to Take That for a second time, recognising an 18 year chart career. Take That, who are still in the middle of a 20 date stadium tour were first awarded the Silver Clef back in 1995.
They have now passed huge artists such as The Rolling Stones and Sir Paul McCartney, who have only won the award once in their long careers.
Other winners at this year’s ceremony at the London Hilton included Madness, who picked up the Icon award, and Queen, who were named Ambassadors of Rock. Beach Boys’ frontman Brian Wilson attended the ceremony to collect a trophy for Best International Act.
Having already completed 8 nights of their Circus tour, Take That play Hampden Park in Glasgow for three nights starting tonight (I have my tickets for Saturday safe and sound lol)
So far the boys have played The Stadium of Light (Sunderland), The Ricoh Arena (Coventry), Croke Park (Dublin) and The Cardiff Millennium Stadium. They still have to play the three nights in Glasgow, four nights at Wembley and five nights at the Trafford Cricket Ground in Manchester.
