Billy.

Looking at that last video, she really is just so oblivious

Kelly was definitely not more of a mentor to LM than Tulisa. The issue girlbands faced on that show was about their image and how they came across to the public, and it was Tulisa who helped them bond and had them over at her house etc etc. Asides from some sound bites each week, I don’t see how Kelly offered any real ongoing tailored support to them.

I hope there is some more hidden gems on this album like the last one. I thought after the first album he was set to experiment a bit more, but the singles so far have been a bit Westlifey.

This is exactly how I feel. I like most of her songs but I feel so disconnected from her. This song is fantastic tho

Vanity Milan for the UK when there are literally all the S2 girls? I get she did a good lip sync but that was literally it.

It sounds like something I learned on my keyboard in secondary school. Some of the lyrics are so clunky too, disappointing when they had some real progression on the last album.

yeah this isn’t good

1. These Four Walls 2. Towers 3. Told You So 4. Nobody But You 5. Good Enough

I just find it odd that you don’t see the point in an industry fundraiser with the sole purpose of raising money towards research/equipment to save lives, particularly when it’s so close to their heart. None of the girls ‘tipped’ this as a Girls Aloud reunion which is something that has to be made clear - we don’t even know if the thing is going to be televised or how it’s going to appear. The quote from Nadine literally said they are holding a charity night and that isn’t worded in an ambiguous ‘are they reuniting way’ at all. I also don’t see how it would be shameless that they now value each other and perhaps what they had together more than ever, because one of them has passed away. We don’t know if they ever will reunite but making assumptions about them Is just so odd in this circumstance.

Absolutely, it all seems so inappropriate.

First person that sprung to mind was Taylor Swift.

I think they’ve made it clear they aren’t ready to perform without her as a group yet sadly.

To be fair Nadine is saying they are planning a night, which sounds more like a charity night than an actual reunion. It’s the paper who seeks to have misconstrued this.

It kind of looks like they don’t really know where they’re meant to be or what they’re doing on stage which means the (lacklustre) choreo looks a bit messy aswell at times. I’m not sure what it is but they are great so I’ve no doubt they’ll improve even though I do think Jesy’s absence will definitely be felt. I know the fan base seemed to have retconned her contributions to being the worst of everything in the group, but she was electric during the last tour.

They all sound so bad on this.

Absolutely, the selection process has a lot to answer for as I know the show has left Shabaz psychologically damaged.

That’s weird as I watched it this morning on All4 too! After watching it though, it’s baffling that she was ever even allowed on to Big Brother in the first place. Someone clearly so vulnerable and institutionalised for so long should never have passed any so called psychology tests. Not saying that this has any effect on her illness as she did obviously have so much love the show.

I thought it was quite a good performance though.

You can definitely make an educated guess based on their socials. For example with Harpeet being in the food industry I actually think it’s unlikely that she will win now as the last winner did the same.

I don’t think Kathryn has been very strong except the week where they created the game. Every other week she seems to fluff sales or sit back and not really offer much. In saying that, Akshay, Akeem and Aaron are pretty much the same too. I really like Stephanie and prior to this week I thought she was a potential winner but I agree it’s Harpreers to lose but could also see Brittany in with a shot too.

This album is such a rush. Literally everything I want from Avril in 2022.

I really like it too! The lyrics are no worse than most of the big pop girls ballad efforts either!

I love this, she genuinely can’t do any wrong for me this era.

I don’t see her changing, I think this is genuinely the aesthetic she wants to have and she probably does feel her best but it’s just a shame it’s so problematic.

She sounds terrible in that performance. I know she’s been i’ll and stuff which is a shame because she she doesn’t seem upto performing those big songs effectively anymore
