Hello! What’s this? I’m not quite sure either, but it’s been pretty quiet on the music front for The Saturdays, but we now have some news … no no sorry it’s not the reunion but it’s not bad!
Steps, also managed by Fascination Management, release their brand new album this Friday – What The Future Holds – but this track To The Beat Of My Heart is out now! Now why on earth am I posting this … well for those who don’t know this song (in another form, with another title) was apparently set to be the 3rd single from Mollie’s (cancelled) solo album, the track also has Mollie listed as a co-writer.
The song was written by Mollie King, MNEK and the Xenomania team, and is the perfect antidote for the current times, a perfect pop song. So support Mollie (why not!) and stream this on your preferred streaming service or purchase the song!
Hello everyone! I do apologise for the lack of updates in recent weeks, been very busy and those on social media will have seen that we have been active on there generating votes for Mollie on Strictly – we have got her to Blackpool after being in the dance off for the previous few weeks. We need everyone to pull together again this weekend and keep Mollie and AJ going!
Then once you have voted for Mollie, we will all need to get involved with Vanessa who has arrived in Australia for her stint on I’m A Celeb – but remember the first week is people voting for whom they want to take part in the trials, then you vote for whom you want to win.
Strictly is back! This time it’s Mollie’s time, and she kicked off the show with a Jive! The public vote opens next weekend, so make sure you are ready to vote!
Fresh from the announcement that she is to star in this year’s ‘Strictly Come Dancing’,Mollie King storms back on to the UK music scene with her new single ‘Hair Down’.

The song will be released on Friday 1st September via Island Records, accompanied by a breathtaking video, shot in South Africa by Kyle Lewis
Mollie says: “I’ve spent the last few months working hard in the studio developing my sound and experimenting with my solo music. I’m a huge fan of pop music myself and was thrilled about working with Brian Higgins again on this record. Brian wrote and produced ‘All Fired Up’ which was one of my favourite Saturdays songs; he totally gets pop and I think we’ve collaboratively come up with some amazing records that the fans are going to love hopefully as much as I do!”

Mollie King insists The Saturdays will reunite in “a couple of years”.
The 29-year-old singer and her fellow girl group members, Una Healy, Vanessa White, Rochelle Humes and Frankie Bridge, decided to take a break from the music industry in 2014 but the blonde-haired beauty has revealed the ‘Up’ hitmakers are “definitely” set to re-group in the future.
Speaking exclusively about the band’s future to BANG Showbiz at the Coca-Cola Summer Party, which took place at London’s Kachette on Wednesday night (05.10.17), she said: “Definitely. I think that that will definitely be on the cards in a couple of years.”
However, Mollie has revealed for the moment her and the rest of her bandmates are all “having fun” pursuing their solo ventures, which has seen Una launch her own solo single ‘ Stay My Love’, although they still keep in touch with one another.
She continued: “But at the moment we are just having fun doing our own thing and we still catch up with each other all the time. So maybe in a couple of years.”
Mollie is currently in the midst of recording her debut solo album, which has seen her spend “every single day” in the studio working on her own records.
Speaking about her current projects, she said: “I’m recording every single day at the minute. It is absolutely mental.”
And the star is eager for the release of her own tracks this summer, which she has likened to the feel good vibe of The Saturdays hits, because she feels she has been “trapped in a box” and is ready to be free.
She added: “But it is going to becoming out this summer and I cannot wait. I’m literally like I feel I’ve been trapped in a box and I’m ready to get out. I cannot wait for it to come out. The sound is very pop, it’s going to be something you can dance to and just really feel good; you’d have it on with the girls on a road trip or a good night out. Definitely like The Saturdays in the way they feel good and can dance to. It’s going to be a lot of fun.”
Mollie recently attended the Coachella festival, she talks about hair, style and more with Hello Fashion Magazine:
Mollie King, former Saturday’s star turned fashion blogger, caught up with Hello! Fashion Monthly at this year’s Coachella Festival. Known for her flawless blonde locks and effortless style, it’s no wonder she fits in with the LA cool crowd. This year she worked with ghd to debut many of the festival hair trends we can expect to see over the course of the summer. Find out how the blonde beauty achieves her own hairstyles, what inspires her boho-esque festival fashion choices and why her motto is “go hard or go home!”
What do you love most about Coachella festival & who do you want to see perform?
I love how Coachella has got such a chilled out and fun vibe, plus the setting is incredible and the sun is always shining. The music acts are always amazing too and the fact that when you walk into the festival and see the iconic Coachella wheel, you know that you’ve arrived. I was most excited to see Lady Gaga! And then DJ Snake and Martin Garrix as well. The line-up was great this year!
Blonde or brunette? Have you ever, or would you ever, go brunette?
I am definitely a blonde! I once tried on one of the girls in the band’s dark extensions in the front of my hair and it looked terrible so I wouldn’t try it again – unless I tried low lights so that it was dark underneath but still light on top. I definitely wouldn’t go dark all over.
