Confetti Tour • 2022
They cut Love Me Or Leave Me tonight. My sister is going tomorrow and that’s her favourite song ever so I hope they bring it back tomorrow. :(

Little Mix • Off-Topic Chat
That's hilarious. I was listening to On Your Radar by The Saturdays and it hit me that I was listening to that while Little Mix were still on X-Factor. I cannot believe it's been 11 years and they're still not (technically) finished yet.

Confetti Tour • 2022
'Real chance' based on what? As has been pointed out dozens of times 99% of pop groups get back together. Little Mix have been the most successful pop group the UK has ever seen (yes, I'm going to say this over Spice Girls because I'd say 10 years of success from a reality TV show in the streaming era is insane) and also have one of the closest, most genuine friendships too. There's no way that in a few years after they do their solo thing and they miss the buzz of performing to arenas and getting massive cheques that they won't do a reunion tour. They can say whatever they like now. I believe that Perrie and Leigh are definitely over the group and want a break (and I don't blame them) and probably think they're done and want to put Little Mix to bed for good but even if Charlie can go back to Busted and Pussycat Dolls can get back together and Robbie can join Take That again then Perrie, Jade and Leigh can do something down the line. :lol:

The UK and homophobia
Just read about the two men in Sligo who got (brutally) murdered in their own homes last week from a Grindr meet and I feel sick. Poor, poor people. :( I don't want to project my own feelings and emotions on the story and try and speak on behalf of the victims but being gay is incredibly lonely at the best of times and I imagine being in your 40's/50's like these two men were, especially in a small town can lead to you potentially dropping your guard - especially if you're chatting to an attractive 22 year old who is showing signs of interest. It is absolutely NOT their fault at all and I hope it doesn't sound like I'm in any way victim blaming but in general I do think that the combination of loneliness/feeling horny and the ability to just meet strangers and send them your home address so effortlessly is a really dangerous combination and I'm actually surprised there aren't more stories of this happening. There's nothing stopping someone creating a Grindr profile and looking for someone to attack or murder. There's no security features in place on the app to fully verify who is behind the profile and too many people are still sending their locations and hooking up without even video chatting or meeting the other guy in public first. I would have thought Grindr would have made a statement in support of these two men and issued a warning or advice on how to use the app safely but there was nothing. Also this might be triggering for those who are sensitive to violence but these two men were . In their own homes. Be safe guys.

Between Us • 12th Nov 2021
OMG is that how low album 'sales' are these days? Under 5K for a top three album. :o God, I remember when I used to follow the charts and you'd need like 20K to get that high.

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
To be fair, you're right. It's a very emotional topic and everyone is going to have their own (very sweet) ideas to honour Sarah. I think yesterday was a bit rough with Tom Parker's funeral and it really just hits home that these pop stars are just normal people like us and sometimes their friends and connections might just want to grieve privately without needing to be in 'public persona' mode.

Camila Cabello - Familia
I was hoping Psychofreak would be a My Oh My type hit but it doesn't seem to be doing anything yet.

Spotify & Apple Music Chart Discussion
You don't need a fanbase for a hit. You just need a good song and Spotify support. Fanbases are for tours and albums. Singles are for the casual music listeners.

The Wanted - Most Wanted: The Greatest Hits
Can’t link it but the tribute video the band released for him today was beautiful.

Confetti Tour • 2022
I don’t have any tickets because I didn’t really wanna go (I’m not big on concerts) but as it’s their last tour and it looks amazing I really wanna go. I don’t mind which venue it is as I’m off work for the next month anyway and was gonna travel around the UK anyway. :lol: I’m so stupidly dumb and last minute with everything. I really don’t wanna go alone haha. If anyone here is in Glasgow and wants to go with me to the Hydro they still have some tickets left there I could snap up.

Confetti Tour • 2022
Bit random but if anyone wants to go to any of the remaininng dates and doesn’t have a ticket PM me. I have nobody to go with to any of them but I’m happy to pay someone elses ticket for the company. :lol:

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
Agreed. There's something very creepy and uncomfortable about their fans drooling about seeing Sarah on a hologram/screen and watching the other four girls cry their eyes out. Just leave them the f*** alone. They're not performing animals that 'need' to do anything public for Sarah. They don't owe the fans shit.

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits
Sing, Thinking Out Loud, Shape Of You, Perfect, I Don’t Care, Beautiful People, Own It, Take Me Back To London, the Elton John collab, the Ladbaby one, Shivers and Bad Habits. Sounds like I’m missing one and I don’t wanna cheat by looking at Wiki…

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
Not to sound insensitive but I think fans are realistic that a tribute charity gig was probably the best chance of seeing the other four girls perform. I really can’t see them (particularly Kim) being up for a tour or new music at all. If they don’t do one performance at a charity event together I can’t see them going to a studio or touring the country and doing full setlists without her. (Absolutely NO SHADE obviously)

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
To be fair Nadine just said they were planning an event. She never really mentioned a performance…although she didn’t exactly make a point of confirming they had no plans either. :lol:

Please don’t have Ed Sheeran and the usual beige artists like Jess Glynne, Anne-Marie and Gary Barlow performing.

Kim just confirmed on This Morning they’re not performing.

Ed Sheeran - Bad Habits
I just don't get it. He has a nice tone (I actually like his part on Bam Bam) and has some nice melodies here and there and I wouldn't begrudge him for having success if it wasn't so....extreme? Like, a couple of number 1's? Sure. TWELVE of them, though? Nah. So many artists with more talent and creativity (and likeability) work their asses off to scrape into the top 40 and this guy writes a song in 15 minutes while making breakfast and goes straight to number 1 for months.

The future of Big Brother UK
It will never happen but a proper stripped back, back to basics series would be incredible. No silly montages with music and 'storylines', no twists, no outside interference AT ALL and about 10 civilian housemates in it for the experience. Lockdown would have been the perfect time to reboot the show and reach a new audience and show why people fell in love with the show in the first place. Unfortunately the producers of reality TV will never learn. It was the same with X-Factor and Britains Got Talent. They meddle too much and try too hard to create 'moments' and manipulate so much that it just turns people off. Less is more!

God that must be less than like, 100 sales. :lol:

Camila Cabello - Familia
Well her Carpool Karaoke segment basically ruled out any Fifth Harmony reunion. :lol: 'Do you miss being in a band?' 'No.' LOOOOOL.

Okay this is an absolute bop as usual. Craig ALWAYS delivers.

Confetti Tour • 2022
I love how Jade has been choked up for every single performance of Between Us. I must say I found her speech before SLS on the first night (I'm not sure it's the same speech verbatim every night) about how she hoped they had given the LGBTQ+ fans a 'safe space over the years' very touching. The last night of tour is going to be emotional as hell. I hope they bring out Stormzy or Anne-Marie or someone for a collab. I imagine there'll be a few celebrities in the audience at the o2.

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
True. I guess I'll take it with a pinch of salt until one of the other girls mention it. Nicola was on a podcast just a week or so ago and didn't mention anything about this either.

Girls Aloud to "reunite" for one night only fundraiser?
No disrespect meant but it’s always Nadine who makes these comments and always one of the others who denies it. Kimberly literally said a few weeks ago it was unlikely they’d perform ever again.
