Frankie, Alaia-Mai and Gentleman

Happy Wednesday to you all! It’s the peak of the working week, the weekend is just around the corner! Our gallery was updated last night with lots of new pictures from recent events with the girls, make sure you pop over and take a look 🙂

We start up with Frankie, who has been speaking to Look Magazine:

Yep, the 24-year-old may have made her performance with her The Saturdays bandmates in front of the 80,000 strong crowd look easy, but she’s admitted there’s something else that’s got her feeling shaky – giving birth!

“I think it did really hit me when I went in to see Rochelle when she’d just had Alaia,” Frankie told LOOK. “I was like OK there’s actually a baby at the end of this so that was weird. No, it’s exciting too…”

But the Gentleman singer, who got engaged to boyfriend Wayne Bridge, 32, in April, has got pal Una, 31, to help her out – as she’s already been coaching new mum Rochelle, “I’ve been giving her loads of tips,” she said.

Gentleman isn’t released for another few weeks yet, but the girls have been speaking about how there is no pressure about it getting to the top .. seems a tad negative to me, but Mollie has said:

“We’re not really feeling the pressure with the new single,” Mollie King told Digital Spy. “It’s more excitement. We’ve had that number one which we wanted so much and now we just hope our music continues to do well.

“Coming off the back of a number one is always going to be tricky, but we all love the song and everyone really seems to be getting behind it. That’s the most important thing.”

Teasing news of their forthcoming album, Frankie Sandford said: “[It’s] pretty much done. We think it’s going to be out towards the end of the year. We really can’t wait for everyone to hear it.

“We’ve worked with some amazing producers and we’re excited to see what the fans think of it.”

Remember you can catch the girls most recent performance of ‘Gentleman’ at CapitalFM’s Summertime Ball on the CapitalFM Website

Finally, all together now, awwww:

Alaia-Mai

Una’s Dream Ticket, STB and Little Sats

Happy Tuesday all! Hope you are having or had a good day! Today we start with the news that Una is fronting a new TV show on Irish TV.

Uns is set to present a new TV show called ‘Una’s Dream Ticket’, a programme that grants wishes to youths around the country.

Una said;  “I am so excited to have been offered this amazing opportunity and can’t wait to return to Ireland to film it.”

Tyrone Productions will produce the show and are calling on kids aged 16 or under to apply to be part of the series. For more information, email [email protected] The closing date of applications is July 19.

Capital have contacted us saying there is a dedicated portal for The Saturdays performances at the Summertime Ball on their site now, which you can view over at CapitalFM

Apparently the girls want to create ‘The Little Saturdays’ in that case we all hope that Frankie’s forthcoming child is a little girl.

Mollie said: ”If they are all girls then maybe they could form a girl band.”

Frankie joked: ”I always say it’s like our pension, The Little Saturdays. But it’s up to them whether they want to become pop stars. The choice was up to us so it should be the same.”

There should be a gallery update coming to the site this evening, keep an eye on our twitter @TheSatsCoUk for the latest on that

Summertime Ball!

Yesterday we where at the Summertime Ball, and obviously our girls where also performing. I have their entire show on my camera, but Capital are showing highlights from the event tonight at 7pm on their TV channel, which you can stream online via their website

Capital have also put up the performance of ‘All Fired Up’ on the site, which you can view here. They have also put up the performance of ‘Forever Is Over’

The girls performed All Fired Up, Forever Is Over, Gentleman and What About Us. Not sure why they included ‘Forever Is Over’ and for some reason the girls performance was the only one that seemed to suffer from audio problems at the venue too. Which didn’t really help the 80,000 odd people there watching, but hey can’t do much about technical problems.

The whole day was really good tho, seeing 80,000 people doing Gangnam Style or bobbing around to Taylor Swift was really great 🙂

Glamour Awards, Frankie and more!

A news roundup from around The Saturdays!

First up the girls attended the Glamour UK Awards last night! They also picked up Best Band at the award show, so congratulations to the girls! 🙂 Each of our girls looked very glam on the red carpet it has to be said! Check out a couple of pictures below. Frankie was showing off her new longer hair for the first time at a public event, what do you think about her new look? Give us a tweet! As I (keep) saying hopefully I will get around to updating the gallery shortly, I just need to find some time to find the images and upload them, please keep following our twitter account @TheSatsCoUk for the latest on the gallery updates as and when they happen

Talking Frankie, she has been talking about her pregnancy.
Asked about Rochelle’s daughter, Sandford told Star magazine: “It’s making me really impatient! I’m like, ‘Oh I want it to be out now’ She also insisted that she is “fine” about continuing The Saturdays’ dance routines while pregnant, but “might have to slightly lower the heel”.  

Check back later in the day as we will also be adding Frankie on Sweat The Small Stuff – to complete the show, Mollie and Vanessa are on the show next week! Plus the girls where on that ‘The Show With Vinny’ on MTV US last week, we will have the girls on there also 🙂

We’re back!

Well its not like we actually went anywhere, but I know its been an age since the last post. Those of you who follow us on twitter @TheSatsCoUk will know I’ve spent most of last week trawling up and down the UK finishing off Mollie’s birthday book, its huge! Thanks to everyone who has submitted something for the book this year, I’m sure Mollie will have a great time reading it over her favourite drink! The book is being posted to the girls management today, so hopefully they will pass it over to her soon 🙂

Not much news has happened in the last week, the girls have been added to the Main Stage for this years V Festival, the girls will be at Weston Park on the 17th August, and then Hylands Park on the 18th August. V Festival gets high profile TV coverage for those who are unlucky not to have a ticket, we shall be putting media on the site – hopefully as it happens 🙂 More on that in August.

There was lots of boring stories about the girls splitting last week – like most people we just ignored this – although it did confirm that the album is still due out late summer and that a tour is in the pipelines – so more on this hopefully in the coming months 🙂

Expect a few site updates in the coming weeks, mainly under-the-hood changes. A gallery update soon too, plus a few other tweaks here and there. I’ll keep you all updated on the site twitter @TheSatsCoUk

On a lighter note:

We will be back with you tomorrow 🙂

[Updated] Live at BBCR1 Big Weekend – Londonderry

Today the girls hit the stage at the BBC Radio 1 Big Weekend, which this year is taking place in Londonderry. The girls finally gave us the first performance of Gentleman, due to technical difficulties my recording of the show (video wise at least) hasn’t seemed to work, but I’ve uploaded the audio of the girls setlist below. BBC Three is showing part of the show tonight at 7pm, we will add this to the site later on 🙂 Check back here later tonight, or keep an eye on our Twitter account @TheSatsCoUk for further information.

Here’s a video of the girls from the BBC Red Button Stream (it’s not the highest quality channel) but its missing four of the songs, the BBC responded to me saying ‘we are showing all what we are allowed to show’ the video includes Notorious, Gentleman, All Fired Up, Higher and What About Us. I will record the BBC Three showing later this afternoon and see if they show anything else 🙂

As with all our own made videos, if you want to use this on your website/blog etc please use the multitude of embed options on vimeo and please link back to us at www.the-saturdays.co.uk – its hugely appreciated 🙂 Time and effort goes into making these videos, this is the only thing that we ask  for.

Here’s a video of the girls backstage, and making a run for it!

Alaia-Mai Humes, Gentleman BTS

For (very) obvious reasons todays news is all dominated by the birth of Alaia-Mai Humes yesterday.  Almost every media outlet you can imagine has reported the birth, I’ve not come across anything that hasn’t been reported already, although the couple probably (does anyone know) have a deal with one of the magazines for the exclusives in a few weeks. Once again we congratulate the couple on the birth of their daughter 🙂

The Doncaster Star has put up a slideshow from the event at the racecourse on Saturday, I’ll try and get a gallery update shortly, I know it’s not had updates for a while, so don’t panic its on the list 🙂

Also Swarovski have posted two videos from ‘Behind The Scenes’ of the Gentleman music video, that actual video doesn’t premiere until Thursday, so enjoy this sneak peak!
