Rochelle to host ITV’s Xtra Factor

RochXtraFactor

It’s Official! Our very own Rochelle has been picked to present the ITV2 X-Factor spin-off show the Xtra Factor!

Saturdays singer Rochelle Humes is the new host of The X Factor spin-off show The Xtra Factor, where she has been partnered with Kiss FM DJ Melvin Odoom.

The pair will be taking over slots once held by Olly Murs and Caroline Flack, who have been promoted to hosts of the main ITV talent show.

This year’s X Factor will see wholesale changes, with Louis Walsh, Mel B and Dermot O’Leary departing.

Simon Cowell and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini are the only faces returning.

The judging panel will be completed by newcomers Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora, who was poached from BBC One’s The Voice.

Coincidentally, Humes’ husband is former JLS singer Marvin Humes, who hosts the BBC’s rival talent show.

The couple are regular stand-in presenters together on ITV’s This Morning, while Rochelle also fronted ITV’s Ninja Warrior UK.

Odoom has worked on Kiss FM’s breakfast show, alongside co-host Rickie Haywood-Williams, as well as presenting The Brit Awards for ITV2.

The Xtra Factor is a companion show to the main weekend broadcasts, and follows the backstage action, as well as chatting with judges and contestants.

Humes said: “I have watched The Xtra Factor for years so I am beyond excited about joining such a brilliant team and getting to work with my old friend Melvin makes it even better.

“I also can’t wait to meet the contestants and be a part of their X Factor experience.”

Wrigley’s Extra – National Smile Month

Photobooth_finalRochelle and Marvin Humes have teamed up with Wrigley’s Extra and are the faces of this year’s National Smile Month. As a result, we have lots of images of the loved-up couple, showing off their pearly whites and cheekiest grins.

To mark National Smile Month (18th May – 18th June), the couple have revealed the secrets behind their winning grins; from how to recreate their red carpet smiles, to what gives them their happiest smiles  – time with their daughter, and for Rochelle, a home-cooked fry-up.

Marvin admits he has an unusual technique to achieve his dazzling photo ready smile, explaining: “If Rochelle and I are on the red carpet together having photos taken, she always gets annoyed because I have a habit of doing a little laugh in her ear to make me have a more natural smile.”

Rochelle adds: “It is so annoying! When I first noticed it I just thought he was laughing at me all the time and it gave me a real complex! I had to tell him to stop laughing at me – but it turns out it is just what he does to make his smile look natural.”

For stunning Rochelle it’s as simple as tilting her head and lifting up her chin when smiling.

I have more pictures from this shoot and will be adding them shortly 🙂 Photobooth 4

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!


Merry Christmas from the Humes!

Here’s a lovely early christmas presents from Rochelle and Marvin!

Our newly expecting couple posted these to her Instagram account a few days ago! I’m sure it will be an lovely time in the Humes household this Christmas as the couple prepare for their first child together. All together now awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

Another @TheSaturdays program for you to all enjoy 🙂 This is On Set With … or in other words; Making The Video: Notorious

In this new video, we are taken behind the scenes and on set with the girls as they film their new music video for the hot new single Notorious – remember to buy and keep promoting, we need the single high on iTunes when the physical is out in several weeks – hopefully the girls will actually do some more promo! *fingers crossed*

Rochelle: No Saturdays Movie Yet

@TheSaturdays Rochelle Wiseman was talking about The Saturdays Movie …..

Rochelle Wiseman has said there are no plans for a Saturdays film yet.

With the JLS documentary-film Eyes Wide Open about to be released, the Saturdays singer – who is dating band member Marvin Humes – insisted the girl group hasn’t been inspired by them.

“I don’t think anyone wants to see us in 3D just yet – it’s a bit much! We’ll leave it with the guys and their nice, trained torsos,” she said at the premiere of Eyes Wide Open in London.

“I have to get in the gym before anyone can see me in 3D,” she added.

Rochelle, who has already seen the JLS film, said fans would be satisfied with the end result.

“It’s a really good film. I think it’s really nice for fans to see their journey and where they are now. I see him everyday so I don’t think it’s any different, but it’s nice for everyone to see,” she continued.
