News Roundup – 19th January

Leave a Comment / The Saturdays /

It’s not too exciting in the world of @TheSaturdays right now .. unless you are an fan of random news bits that appear here and there. Here’s a little round up of what the Internet is talking about with The Saturdays.

Firstly, as we can tell from the girls, they are in the recording studio. Rochelle in the past has said that girls where due to hit the studio in january to start recording songs for the follow up to ‘On Your Radar’ – so this obviously sees to be the case. There are a lot of rumours circulating that the girls might re-release the album, or even ‘Greatest Hits’ is being touted due to Una’s child and she obviously wants to spend time with her kid. I guess we will see what will happen but either way media reports of the girls demise are way off the mark!

Secondly, the media seem to be in love with Frankie’s brand new £135k car. Have to say for someone that doesn’t play Football, Mr Bridge is getting an awful lot of money from Manchester City – do they have more money then sense?!

Una had a bit of a fainting episode – don’t panic, all is fine! She has tweeted that all is well. But it seems some media outlets are making the most of the news item!

Remember you can follow us on twitter (we will follow back, once twitter allows us!) and you can like us on facebook, follow us on youtube etc.

Frankie offers advice to Little Mix

1 Comment / Frankie Bridge /

Seem @thesaturdays are having a bit of a break after the tour, with Christmas over and done with now, and New Year coming up soon 2012 will be an interesting year for the group, with Una’s baby due amongst other things. Hopefully it won’t be too quiet, we are likely to see another single – probably a slow one, what with Una expecting soon – and then you can flip a coin if we will see a re-release of ‘On Your Radar’ or maybe another album release … greatest hits anyone? … either way it shouldn’t be too quiet, but I think 2012 will be more on the quiet side than some fans might have been used to. If you miss a girl band craving, it seems our girls are still offering advice to X-Factor winners Little Mix, this is via CapitalFM:

The Saturdays have admitted that X Factor winners Little Mix asked them for advice when the two girl groups met.

The ‘Up’ singers revealed that it was nice to be looked up to as they did the same thing with Girls Aloud when they were first starting out together.

Speaking to Capital FM about Little Mix, singer Frankie Sandford said: “They asked us for some advice and it was really nice being in [that] position.”

“When we met Girls Aloud we were like Little Mix and we were like ‘have you got any advice’. It’s actually really nice to be able to look up to someone and it’s nice for us to be able to be like ‘oh, we were like that before’,” she added.

Frankie and the girls recently finished their UK and Ireland arena tour and at their Wembley Arena show, singer Una Healy announced her engagement to England rugby star Ben Foden.

“‘Frankie is still ill and she’s taking her time to recover. Under doctor’s orders she is only permitted to attend tour rehearsals,” they told MailOnline.

“She’s easing herself back in to things with the group but will be appearing on the tour which starts at the end of this month.”

Meanwhile, The Saturdays have given fans a sneak peak at their new album ‘On Your Radar’, which is released on Monday (21st November).

Welcome back Frankie!

Leave a Comment / The Saturdays /

@FrankieTheSats is back! 🙂

The Saturdays‘ Frankie Sandford was all smiles as she returned to the spotlight for the first time in almost two months yesterday (2nd November).

The ‘On Your Radar’ star, who has been recovering from an undisclosed illness, was spotted outside TV studios in London.

Wearing a trilby and sunglasses, Frankie smiled when she spotted the photographers.

Her appearance in public came just 24 hours after the rest of The Saturdays turned on London’s Oxford Street Christmas lights.

Mollie, Vanessa, Una and Rochelle performed their new single ‘My Heart Takes Over’ during the annual switch on.

The Saturdays’ new album ‘On Your Radar’ is due to be released on 21st November.

Frankie checks into Clinic

1 Comment / Frankie Bridge /

We wish her a speedy recovery! Good luck @FrankieTheSats

POP beauty Frankie Sandford has alarmed fans by checking herself into a clinic.
The Saturdays babe was admitted to a centre for “unconfirmed reasons” after disappearing off the party circuit for over a week.

Her spokesman last night confirmed Frankie, 22, had signed into a clinic but said her treatment was nothing to do with drink or drugs and was not for a cosmetic procedure such as a boob or nose job.
Frankie herself admitted she had been poorly after posting a message on Twitter to bandmates Rochelle Wiseman, 22, Una Healy, 30, Mollie King, 24, and Vanessa White, 21.

She wrote over the weekend: “Sorry I haven’t Tweeted in a while. I’ve not been very well. Miss u. I’ll b back soon x.”
It comes after the star missed several group outings, leaving fans wondering if the sexy girl group were on the verge of a split. Last week the band members went to view a new Marie Curie Hospice Centre being built in Solihull, West Mids, but Frankie was forced to pull out.

Then she was also absent from a group visit to their vocal coach Priscilla Jones. Sources have said the singer is being supported by boyfriend and Manchester City footballer Wayne Bridge, 31, but they refused to speculate on the reasons why she has checked in.

Last night fans were sending her their best wishes. One wrote: “Frankie we miss you! The girls don’t look the same without you! Please come back!”

Frankie’s ex-boyfriend, McFly star Dougie Poynter, 23, checked himself into rehab after their relationship ended last November.

Where’s Frankie, Girls?

2 Comments / Frankie Bridge, Rumors /

A non-news item but as every newspaper/media is reporting this I’ll post it up here for everyone to have a laugh at ….

Ms Sandford seems to be MIA. Could she be about to leave The Saturdays? This would be bad news indeed.

Mollie King, Rochelle Wiseman, Vanessa White and Una Healy all went for some vocal training yesterday.

But Frankie was noticeably absent from the group.

Worringly, it’s not the first time this month that The Saturdays have made an appearance sans their short-haired friend.

Last week, the girls paid a visit to a Marie Curie hospice in Solihull, but Frankie sat it out.

It’s understandably started rumours that all might not be well within the group.

They’ve already reassured fans that they’re not splitting despite Una’s pregnancy, but could they be planning to continue on as a foursome?

It’s like Robbie Williams leaving Take That all over again. Or Geri Halliwell leaving the Spice Girls. Our nerves can’t take it.

The girls embark on National Radio Tour

1 Comment / The Saturdays /

Busy times for @thesaturdays as today was day 1 (of 5) of their National UK tour of local radio stations – see everyone they do promote outside London and Manchester after all 😀

Today it seems Rochelle and Vanessa have been taken in the sights of Wales and South England (they are on route to Southampton right now) where Una and Mollie have been visiting Scotland. According to their own website:

“The girls will divide and conquer to cover the breadth of the UK, taking in Scotland, Newcastle, west Yorkshire, Birmingham, Wigan, Swansea, Hampshire, Brighton, Nottingham and more… all in just five days.”

If today is anything to go by it seems Una & Mollie are doing the Northern radio stations with Rochelle and Vanessa taking the southern ones. Although obviously they will swap tomorrow now we’ve posted this and we will look silly!
