The Saturdays

This is generic news about The Saturdays.

The Saturdays Roundup : 9th February 2015

Firstly HUGE thanks to the early donators to this year’s charity for Mollie’s Birthday Book – The British Heart Foundation. In just a few days since we officially launched it, we’ve raised £101! Amazing, it really is! You can find all the details in the post below, or by clicking the banner a the top! Let’s beat last years total of £550!

Talking BHF, Mollie fronts their annual charity auction tomorrow, although you will need a fair bit of spare money to be able to buy anything! If you want to go shopping with Mollie you currently need a cool £3000 – and you know by tomorrow evening it will be at least double that!

Also in the newa The Saturdays company, Day & Night Ventures, accumulated profits rose by £340,371 to £696,159 in the year ending August 31, 2013, according to figures lodged with Britain’s Companies House. I’m no business expert but maybe someone is ..

Rochelle has said she has no plans for an S Club Juniors reunion (boo!) she says, ‘Look, I’m friends with the Juniors and all of that, and it will always be a big part of my life,’ says Rochelle, 25. ‘But I don’t want to go back to being 12 again.’ Talking Rochelle, herself and Marvin have been in the recent Fabulous Magazine talking some saucy things.

 

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all our wonderful visitors! We hope you had a great Christmas/New Year period and are ready for the exciting times that 2015 might throw at us!

I usually do an end-of-year sort of review for The Sats, and I still have it (unpublished right now), I might post it, I might not, as some people might see it as being negative, some might see it as being realistic, others might just read it and ignore. I’ll see how I feel in a few days.

But saying that I can’t do a 2015 post without what I expect about 2015. Like a lot of people we are all a bit taken back by the news that the traditional mailer and flip have been cancelled. I sit right on the fence about that, it’s been increasingly obvious that they’ve been struggling for content for these for a long time, so on that side I can see why they’ve been stopped, but obviously this is something that the group has always done since the start so I can appreciate the other side of the argument too.

As for 2015, for the first time in all my years running this site I’m at an impasse. The girls are heavily involved in their own projects right now. As we know Rochelle has seemingly moved all her solo ventures like TV presenting and her Very range to management away from the groups management. The other 4 are seemingly keeping their own interests alongside Fascination for now. Mollie has another Oasis range due out – I presume for Spring/Summer. Una obviously is on The Voice of Ireland, and expecting baby number two. Frankie has the strictly tour coming up, and has recently spoken to the press about how herself and Wayne would like another little buba at some point. Vanessa seems to be loving the holiday life!

Musically – who really knows. We know they keep making the right noises about new music coming soon, and recording and everything but as we know Christmas as come and gone, and we’ve not had any release. Like you all I wouldn’t mind some new music, but I honestly feel we might have a bit of a wait for it.

It’s our SEVENTH birthday in April too! Honestly can’t believe I’ve been doing this for so long!

As always you can contact us at @TheSatsCoUk on twitter, or via our facebook page to air us your own personal views.

Merry Christmas!

A huge Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates this festive time of the year from everywhere here at The Saturdays Fansite.

We hope you have a wonderful time with family over the festive period and if you get presents you get some nice ones!

If you eat too much (and drink too much!) and find yourself bored tomorrow, remember that Una’s Dream Ticket starts up again on RTE in Ireland and Top Of The Pops returns for its usual Christmas outing – sadly no Saturdays on it this year!

Our usual end-of-year review will appear on the site nearer the new year, but for now enjoy Christmas!

All the best!

New album recording in January? Plus other news.

What has been going on recently with The Saturdays? Well musically not much (sadly), the supposedly Christmas release of a new single and album – well hasn’t passed us yet – but it is 8th December so we presume that isn’t happening now despite the girls teasing everyone over twitter about being in the recording studio. News has emerged today that Rochelle is quoted as saying that the girls are hitting the studio in January to record their 6th album and that they need to fit it in between people giving birth! Obviously Frankie is on the strictly tour (January-February 2015) and Una is on the live shows for The Voice of Ireland which are in May. We might be waiting for a while ..

Frankie hung up her Strictly shoes last night to attend a special gala performance of Edward Scissorhands at Sadler’s Wells Theatre in London. A few pictures I’ve added below.

Frankie has also been talking about her depression, and how she’s managed to control it. It’s a long article to reproduce here so please read it over at the DailyMail website.

To make us all feel even better, Rochelle confirms that herself and Marvin are heading to the Maldives for Christmas – nice! Ben Foden seems to have caught the acting bug, and is set to appear on Hollyoaks!

To finish this round up, we leave you with the thought that Mollie apparently wants to have lots of children! 

Cosmopolitan Ultimate #FabulousFriends award

Is it just me, or does this sound like something out of the Smash Hits Poll Winners Party era?

Tonight, princesses of pop The Saturdays were crowned the *bosses* of friendship at our Cosmopolitan Ultimate Women of the Year Awards with Baileys. United through the band’s seven years together, they’ve had five albums, 13 top ten singles, three weddings and three baby arrivals between them, and are true testament to the magic that can be made when girls come together.

On collecting their #FabulousFriends award sponsored by Baileys, a delighted Mollie King told us: “The girls are literally my family. It’s lovely to get an award for our achievements and this is even more special because it’s about the fact we are best friends – and friendships are more important than any success.”

Whether you’re navigating the pop charts or the January sales together, the fundamentals of friendship are the same whether you’re famous or not. There are broken hearts to be mended, milestones to be celebrated and imperative group decisions to be made (e.g. what take-away to order for your girls night in AND exactly what shade of coral nail varnish to go for with that first date manicure?) “We all have our moments but as a five we always feel most confident together. You know you’ve got each other’s back whatever happens,” Frankie says. So from avoiding squabbles to helping each other through hard times, our winners dish out their top secrets on how to keep your girl group on top..
