Alex is hurt

January 23 2010 by Saara

Southgate Harmen A’s title hopes have suffered a major blow after it was confirmed that striker Alex Bourne has been ruled out for five weeks with a cracked metatarsal. Bourne, the league joint-top goal-scorer on 13 goals, has helped Harmen lead the JC MSFL Division One table from the beginning of the season with two hat-tricks to his tally. The husband of pop star Rachel Stevens has scored 18 goals in all competitions.
Bourne, 31, said: “Obviously I’m extremely disapointed with the injury. I’m probably the only Jewish footballer at the moment who's hoping for more games to be cancelled. “I’m really enjoying the season and Andy Okin, our assistant-manager, has set me a target of scoring at least 30 goals this season.”
Bourne spearheaded Harmen’s Division Two title success last season and won the division’s Golden Boot. He suffered the injury at training. “I cracked my metatarsal in a five-a-side game last week. It was such a minor incident. That's what is so frustrating about it.
“I’m hoping to be back in less than the five-week timescale that I’ve been given but want to make sure that I’m totally ready before playing again. “Obviously I'd like to think that my presence will be missed by the team but we have a very strong squad and, with the amount of chances we are creating, and the quality of Lloyd Becker amongst others, I don’t think our title chances will be too damaged.
“I'll obviously try and stay fit and sharp while I’m out and I’m still holding out for getting a lot of match time with the view of making Fabio Capello's squad in the summer!” Bourne is set to miss league matches against Oakwood, Neasden B, Montana A and one other as well as the trip to Red Sea in the Anekstein.

Tina gave a free jazz and hip hop dance lesson on 18th at Danceworks Studios. Did anyone go? I typed the ad and you can view it in pdf here.

Taught by former S Club 7 star and choreographer Tina Barrett. This one off high energy class will involve fusions of jazz, hip hop and ballet to test your superstar credentials. There will also be a chance to ask Tina for any industry tips and advice afterwards.
The class is open to people of all skill levels, however we will also be looking for professional female dancers for an upcoming TV project.

Rachel not ready for children

January 10 2010 by Saara

While most women with a successful career over many years might look forward to starting a family, former S Club singer Rachel Stevens, left, is determined to stay focused on work.
'I am a real career girl, always working on new projects - I will not give it up,' she said.
The 31-year-old pop star and Strictly Come Dancing contestant, who wed actor Alex Bourne in August, cheekily added: 'We want babies but we've only been married a short time. Let's just say we are doing a lot of practising.'

Rachel donates her shoes

January 9 2010 by Saara

FANS of Dame Shirley Bassey are running out of time to bid for a pair of her shoes in a charity auction. She has kindly donated a pair of diamante-encrusted Yves Saint Laurent high heels, size 6, to Barnardo’s.
The silent auction for the shoes ends next Friday and can be entered via silentauction@barnardos.org.uk. Yvonne Rodgers, director of Barnardo’s Cymru, said: “This is a chance of a lifetime for someone to own a pair of designer shoes owned by one of the biggest singing sensations we have ever known.
“The person who wins will also know that their bid has helped to support disadvantaged children across the UK.” Dame Shirley and Joan Collins were among an array of stars who donated glamorous outfits to support Barnardo’s in the run-up to Christmas.
Other donations came from Swansea singing legend Bonnie Tyler, comedian Julian Clary, singers Alesha Dixon and Rachel Stevens, electro-pop band La Roux, model Laura Bailey, pop stars Lisa Stansfield and Carol Decker and M-People singer Heather Small.
