Not The Diva We Thought

Ok, sorry for no updates, but i have had exams and have been unable to get to a computer till today.

Anyways, i just wanted to do a quick update on the Ricki Lee vs Young Divas wedding fiasco. I got the story i posted below from Tv Week, and what do you know, they were uninformed. As the very lovely person stated in the comments section, Paulini, Kate and Emily WERE invited to Ricki Lees wedding, but none of them turned up. Whats the go girls? Perhaps they are jealous of her solo sucess?

If you want to read more on this, Wednesdays edition of the Daily Telegraph has centre page write up on it, so does this weeks edition of the Australian Womens Day. If i get a chance, i will scan them and post them.

Damn Divas......

Young Divas Wedding.....Or Not

Last week end popette RICKI LEE got married to her boyfriend in a lavish Gold Coast wedding ceremony. There were quite a few famous faces in the crowd including alot of ex-idol stars. But guess who were missing? Thats right Kate DeAraguo, Paulini and Emily Williams, collectivly they were once known as the Young Divas. Ricki had tried to say that she had left the group on good terms and remained good friends with them all, however not even one of the three got invited to the wedding? I guess the remaining Young Divas invitation got lost in the mail......

Kellys Oz Tour And Single

Ok, shes not Australian, but its got to do with the Australian music scene, so im posting it bitches!
The 2nd single of KELLY CLARKSON new album My December in Australia will be One Minute (see single cover) although no video has yet been made for the song......
This week One Minute is siting in the top 20 on radio, which is a good sign. The single will be released on 22 September. Kelly will arrive in Oz for a promo tour from the 27th to promote the new album and single. She will be doing quite a few high profile TV appearances (including Rove, Idol, Sunrise etc) so i expect the album will rise back up the charts in coming weeks. She will being bringing her My December Tour to Australia early next year.
Australians love Kelly, with her last tour down under was a sell out with more shows having to be added, and Breakaway spent 52 weeks in the Top 10, peaking @ #2 going 6xPlatinum. My December was certified Gold in its first week of release.

WELCOME KELLY!

ONE MINUTE
1. One Minute
2. Never Again (sessions @ AOL)

And The New You Diva Is....

JESSICA MALBOUY!
Thats right, the latest edition to the YOUNG DIVAS is the 17 year old runner up for the 2006 season of Australian Idol. Jess is replacing Ricki Lee who left to focus on her music career. SongBMG have hinted that there will be a new Divas album out by the end of the year, or aleast a new single. It will be the follow up to there 2006 self titled debut which went to #4 on the ARIA charts and went 2xPlatinum. It also had 2 top10 single the #2 This Time I Know Its For Real and the #9 Happenin' All Over Again.
I love the Divas and there album rocks, BUT, what is the definition of Diva? Jess is only 17, shes NOT a diva! And poor Kate DeAraguo is going to stick out like a sore "white" thumb. Cosima DeVito (who is releasing a new album This Is Now, next month) should have replaced Ricki.
I think that Kate needs to get back to doing solo stuff. She has the potential and the look to be Australias answer to Kelly Clarkson......
