Danny, Popstar to Operastar article

After the public vote placed him and McFly singer Danny Jones in the bottom two, all four judges – Katherine Jenkins, Meat Loaf, Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen and Villazon – decided Danny deserved to stay another week.

Following the decision, an emotional Jimmy said: ‘My opera dreams have just begun. What a blast this has been. I’m going to go home and see my beautiful wife and four kids – they are opera to me.

‘Opera is empowering, it’s exciting and it’s a way of getting in touch with your inner emotions. I have fallen in love with every person while taking part in this show.’

Jones looked relieved at having been chosen to stay, particularly following a botched dress rehearsal earlier in the day where he had forgotten his lyrics.

But his visit to English opera star Russell Watson earlier in the week had clearly helped him, as he wowed his screaming fans with a performance of Con Te Partirò (Time To Say Goodbye).

Danny, Popstar to Operastar

McFly singer Danny Jones impressed with his rendition of Caruso by Dalla.
Singing in Italian, the 23-year-old frontman delivered a mature performance of the love song, which Katherine said afterwards made her 'swoon'.

Villazon told him: 'That was a dangerous piece because it would have been easy to sing it like a popstar, but you kept it opera throughout.'
He added he was 'proud' of the performance after a relieved Danny said he was just relieved to have got it over with

McFly to sign deal with Universal?

POP-ROCK pups McFLY made much of leaving their major label home 18 months ago to set up their own record company.
The quartet sunk hundreds of thousands of pounds of their own money into Super Records and their album Radio:ACTIVE saw them find success in Australia and South America.

Now they're in the final stages of signing a deal with Universal, the parent company of their former Island records stable, which will see the global giant help them distribute and promote their product overseas.

Meanwhile TOM, DANNY, DOUGIE and HARRY have roped in a shock producer for their latest disc. Instead of the rock folk they've collaborated with in the past, they've been working with R&B producer DALLAS AUSTIN.

Austin has previously worked with MICHAEL JACKSON, PINK and TLC.

What a weird hook-up.

Danny set to rap?

Singing in the shower, missing the McFly boys and a future in rap - get the gossip from Mr Jones' live chat

When we wrenched rising operatic star Danny Jones from rehearsals and sat him down at a laptop for a chat with you all, he was quick to quash queries regarding a potential solo career.

"It would suck to be a solo artist," he wrote. "I miss the boys being beside me."

Awww. And that's not the only thing Danny finds hard when he's warbling in front of the nation.

"The hardest thing is learning the Italian," he added. "It's sooooo hard, especially when your from Bolton!"

Quick as a flash, sparks flew across keyboards everywhere, as you all delved into ways that Danny could practice behind closed doors.

And he wasn't afraid to admit his top secret tactics.

"I have sung opera in the shower," he revealed. "I recommend it because not only do you think you sound amazing because of all the echo, but the steam is good for your voice."

You heard it here first people.

And the crowd went wild for the steam-enhanced high notes when Danny belted out his first operatic number.

And now that he's mastered the art of vibrato, could we tempt the star to branch out into yet another challenging genre?

"I would like to try... er, rapping!" he replied, with a glint in his eye.

And that, Danny Jones fans, is a whole other show.

Another Danny article

MCFLY’S Danny Jones has started a dirty tricks campaign to get rival Vanessa White kicked off new reality show Popstar To Opera Star.

The cheeky chap admitted bribing the rest of The Saturdays to vote for him and not their bandmate.

Danny, who moaned he looks like a baboon when he sings classically, joked: “I’ve already got Frankie on my side. It’s turning into a boy band v girl band opera war.”

His plan almost worked as the brilliant Vanessa narrowly missed the chop after being in Friday’s bottom two. The poor lass told us: “This is the scariest thing I have done."

“I felt like I was missing each limb without the other girls on stage.”

Surely he must've said that as a joke.

Danny talks Popstar to Opera Star

As well as Danny McFly talking about his Miss England girlfriend Georgia Horsley, this week Danny has also been chatting about his stint as an opera singer on ITV 1's prime time reality effort, Popstar to Opera Star.

Danny says he's been working extremely hard for the show and that it's completely different to performing with McFly. "When I'm in McFly, I've got a guitar and my mates. It seems easy looking back at it now. With opera, you've got to sing from your eyes and your nose - it's like learning to sing again."

Danny said vocal coach Katherine Jenkins is a "perfectionist...you wouldn't mess about with her". He also commented on his competition, saying rival Vanessa from The Saturdays "is a lovely girl with an ace voice.", calling Bernie Nolan a "dark horse" and that Jimmy Osmond is "classic, so lovely and down to earth."

On Friday's debut show, Danny was the first singer to be put through. Blur guitarist Alex James and Vanessa received the lowest amount of votes and as a result were in the bottom two. After equal votes from the judges, it went to who collected the highest amount of public votes, and Vanessa was saved. We know all you Fleckster's are supporting Danny, as are we, and we wish him the best of luck in the coming weeks, and hope he hits those high notes!

Danny wants to make 'opera cool'

Danny Jones, singer and guitarist in McFly, is taking a break from his usual style of music by trying out opera in new reality show Popstar To Opera Star. He'll be battling for survival every week against fellow singers like Kym Marsh, Vanessa White and Alex James. He says he's keen to take the classical genre to his younger fans.

Why did you want to do the show?

I've sort of messed about with opera before and never really took it seriously. It got on to some documentaries on the DVDs and it was always a mess about with the lads. My manager rang me up and said, 'You'll never guess, this opportunity's come up and it's to be an opera singer.' I said, 'Are you kidding me? I can't do that it's ridiculous.'

I spoke to the boys about it and they were like, 'Mate, do it, it'll be classic.' Normally we're on holiday now, so there's not much going on for McFly in January. So I thought I'd take the challenge and see what happens.

How much of a challenge is this?

It's a massive challenge. Not only is it a different style of singing, it's a different genre. It's totally out of my comfort zone. I'm going to be on my own with an orchestra. Not only that but it's going to be live on ITV at 9 O'clock, so no pressure.

Do you enjoy opera?

I do now, I didn't really know much about it before. It's always been there and I've messed about with it, had a laugh with it. I actually really enjoy it and it's opened me up to new music. It's amazing music.

Will you wear a tux?

No, I've specifically said I don't really want to go down that route. I want to make it appeal to my fans and bring these old sort of characters into the modern world - and make it a bit cooler, without trying too hard though. I just want to make it appeal to my fans the best way I can.

Do you think it will help with McFly?

I've never been taught how to sing. It just happened. And for six years we've being done tours and never lost it, never missed a show because I've lost my voice so it just sort of works.

To get in to learning opera and getting actual teachers to teach me… I've been doing all sorts of stuff, laying on the floor whilst singing, being massaged. It's really interesting and I think it'll really help my vocals.

Are the boys behind you?

Yeah, Tom loves it. I think Tom would do it if they asked him to do it again. They're all behind me. Harry rang me the other day. He's away at the minute. He said, 'Mate, I'm so sorry I can't be there. I've gone on holiday and I'm missing the first show. Good luck.'

Tom is obviously getting everyone to vote for me and I've got his support. He tweets more than me about it.

When will we hear more from McFly?

A McFly album will be coming soon, I don't know when. We think late summer-ish. It's all in talk at the minute, it's very exciting for us.

You've been away writing have you?

Yeah and planning lots of projects. We've been writing with the likes of Dallas Austin who did TLC, Pink, Monica, worked with Anastasia, Katy Perry.

So it's really interesting for us to work with that sort of partnership because we've never done it before. We could be the safe McFly and write the songs we do and keep being safe but then we want to take it to that next step and be more adventurous. So that's what we're doing this year.

Danny LOVES TV talent shows

McFly’s Danny Jones has admitted that he loves TV talent shows, which is lucky really when you consider that he’s about to star in one.

Danny will compete in ITV’s Popstar To Operastar which launches this Friday night and talking about shows in this genre he admitted:

“They’re just great entertainment. It’s all live, and the audience love the thrill of that. As a performer, there is also the fear of messing up and showing yourself up. Do I have that fear? Not yet!”

“I’m just thrilled to be involved with Popstar to Operastar. I think it could introduce opera to a whole new audience. I’m hoping to make opera cool!”

Read the article here.

You know what? We think he might actually be able to do it!

Danny in magazine

Five things you should know about McFly’s Danny Jones:

1. The 23 year old is ’sh*tting himself’ about taking part in Popstar to Operastar.‘I know nothing about Opera,’ he revelas.‘At first i said “No way am I doing that”.But i’m doing it for the challange.’

2. He doesn’t get angry very often, but when he does it’s normally over his housemate ‘not leaving the kitchen tidy’.

3. McFly are busy writing: ‘ We’ve been working with R&B producer Dallas Austin, who’s done Katy Perry.We want to blow you away.’

4. He’s mates with Elton John! ‘ We went for dinner round Elton’s house,’ he tells us.‘We got on with him well and he even sent me a Christmas card.’

5. He’s still dating Miss England 2007 Georgia Horsley. ‘She’s so cute,’ he tells us. ‘The other day she put the TV on mute, so she could listen to me practising my singing.’

Danny: Georgia is the one

McFly boy (and our new favourite Opera Star) Danny Jones has finally broken his silence on the whole Georgia Horsley goings on.

A word of warning Danny fans, this is going to sting - not only has he confirmed that they are together, he says Georgia is 'the one'.

Speaking to the News Of The World, Danny spoke in detail about his recent love antics.

"I guess it's obvious what my type is - big, blonde girls. My mates thought it was cool."

Danny insists that he is no love rat, just having fun. We're sure long term girlfriend Olivia Shaw had loads of fun when he dumped her for his first Miss England Laura Coleman. Not.

"I felt s*** for hurting the others but I'm not a cheat,"

"But Georgia is the one - she's epic."

"I left it badly with her [Olivia]," he admits. "You write songs about these things. When you're scared of breaking up with someone, you ask for some space instead.

"So that's what I did and we were having space when I went to South Africa."

And that, boys and girls, is when he snogged Laura during a night out.

"That happened and I was like, 'I need to get out of this with Olivia'. It was an awkward situation because I had wanted to break up anyway but I didn't have the balls. So I'd asked for space, then I went and had a f****** great time in South Africa.

"I know I probably broke her heart. I haven't had mine broken before but I can imagine how it feels." - oh we're sure you can Danny.

But Danny isn't a love rat... because he claims he was never actually going out with Laura.

He recalls: "I did kiss her [Laura] and got with her for a bit, but it wasn't as a girlfriend. I was just like, 'Wow, it's Miss England.' It was pretty cool.

"Maybe Laura thought there was something more to it."

Danny did admit that, if it wasn't for Laura, he never would have met his latest Miss England - Georgia Horsley.

"Meeting Georgia was an accident really. I bumped into her at that event but I backed off.
"Then months later she asked me out for a drink. She was such a laugh - a really amazing girl."

"I'm not a cheat. I wouldn't have the guts to do that.
"I was obviously a single lad at the time and having fun. I saw a girl and I fancied her. I just like good-looking girls, to be honest!"

We're glad Danny is finally happy and settling down. Congrats to the pair.

Another opera article

DANNY JONES

As one of the lead vocalists and guitarists in the hit boy band McFly, Danny Jones has enjoyed seven number one singles and holds the record for the youngest band ever to top the pop album chart twice.

Along with his fellow band members Tom Fletcher (lead vocals–guitar), Dougie Poynter (vocals–bass guitar) and Harry Judd (drums), Danny first achieved pop fame in 2004 when fellow pop band Busted invited them to join them on the UK tour.

Their debut album, Room on the 3rd Floor, debuted at number 1 in the UK pop album chart and led to the band becoming known as the youngest band ever to have an album debut at number 1 – a title they stole from The Beatles. Their second album, Wonderland, also charted at number 1 when it was released in 2005.

Since then, McFly have had sixteen consecutive top twenty singles, seven of which reached number 1 and fifteen of which were consecutive top ten singles.

Still only 23 years-old, Danny is the youngest male in the TV opera competition and is sure to have the support of McFly's loyal fanbase, but will his arias have McFly fans voting in their thousands?

What does Danny think about opera?

"In this show, you're really learning something. It's very exciting. We don't just sit in the jungle eating kangaroo's private parts. This requires talent!"

"I forget the words to my own songs, never mind arias in a foreign language! If I do get lost, I'll just make it up and have a laugh! What's more daunting is that I've got to learn each aria in just a week. That's scary!"

"I think it could introduce opera to a whole new audience. I'm hoping to make opera cool!"

Danny opera interview

Lead singer of McFly appears on pop Star to Opera Star but is unsure whether it will change his on stage performance.

Danny about opera singing and McFly's new album

Danny Jones tells us about opera singing and McFly's VERY exciting new album.

While Rochelle, Frankie, Una and Mollie were busy taking over our Twitter and doing strange (but hilarious) things to heatgeek, heatworld was also off hanging out with Danny from McFly at the launch for Popstar To Operastar. Danny is very excited about putting on his posh voice and singing in Italian, and said he's VERY chuffed with all the support he's getting from his heatworld fans. "The support is brilliant," he said, "And the boys will be there for me, too. I've said I want them in my dressing room with me on Friday." Danny explained that when he first got offered the chance to be on the show he said no. But Tom, Dougie and Harry convinced him to "take one for the team" and he's going for it! We're mightly glad they're so persuasive. Just imagine staring at Danny¹s handsome face every Friday night for six weeks! Woop! The Saturdays¹ Vanessa White is also having a go at the old opera singing, and told us she's dead nervous about being without the other Saturdays. "People keep asking me whether we might get The Saturdays to sing opera," she giggled. "Imagine if the girls learnt some for the next album?" Now that we¹d love to see! Or hear. Danny also went on to tell us the McFly boys will be releasing their new album in the second half of 2010, and at the moment they're still writing new songs. "It's going to be brilliant," he grinned. We can¹t wait!

Dougie mentioned in Frankie interview

THE Saturdays' sex kitten Frankie Sandford will celebrate her 21st with a swanky hotel slumber party.

Foxy Frankie is planning a booze-filled sleepover at the Soho Sanctum hotel this week with McFly boyfriend Dougie Poynter, her bandmates, and pals JLS.

Our Saturdays source says: "The girls have all chipped in to make sure that this is going to be celebrated in style."

"They've hired the whole of the top floor of the hotel, which boasts a roof terrace and outdoor hot tub, and they are all staying in top suites for the night with rooms worth around 500pounds a pop."

The girls have just done a super-sexy shoot for a lads' mag and even filmed a video of themselves in their underwear having a pillow fight, in case we needed to know what a slumber party with the Sats might look like.

The chorus from the male contingent at Rehab HQ after we told them about this secret soiree on Thursday? "How do we get an invite to that, then?"

The wonder of Wembley

I was playing in a side made up largely of Reverend and The Makers. Hairy frontman Jon "The Reverend" McClure had driven a mini-bus down from Sheffield with five other band members in it. Simon Webbe, of Blue fame, and Danny from McFly were playing up front while two lads from Umbro made up the 11.

4. When Danny from McFly rattled in our fourth goal, I went to celebrate with him but got slightly distracted and missed with the right hand of an attempted double high-five. Instead of the intended palm-on-palm action, I inserted by thumb in his right eye, forcing him to leave the pitch. Not quite Steve Morrow but still pretty nasty.

Frankies love confession (About Dougie)

I didnt go out of my way to impress Dougie..

On our first date I wore black boots, shiny leggings, a long dress and a jacket. I didnt want to look like I'd made loads of effort.

...And I cant remember what he wore on our first date either

I think it was just a shirt, jeans and trainers. Its so much easier for boys!

I got lost in love

I split with my first boyfriend not because I didnt love or respect him, but because I had to go off and do my own thing. It taught me that when youre in a relationship, its important for both of you to have your own lives as well. I feel like Im at that stage now with Dougie.

If I really like him, I cant play games

With boys I fancy, I can play the games pretty well. But if Im really into him, I just tell him. Im not full-on, but youve got to be honest.

Dougie doesnt care about my facebook status

Facebook is great for checking up on guys youve only just met, but people read too much into it now. I hear couples arguing if one doesnt change their status. It adds too much pressure. Mine says Im in a relationship, but Dougie doesnt care what it says!

I fancy RPatz

Hes my favourite Twilight boy!

I dont really do single

I used to think boyfriends were the be-all and end-all, but now I think its important to have time alone. Being single is OK until you meet someone you want to be with.

Love is...

...When youve found someone you can be yourself with, who you can argue with, but you know you wont row enough to break up.

Tom & Dougie on holiday

Who wants to see what McFly have been getting up to on their holiday?

Screeeeeam if you wanna go faster! Most celebs are usually busy sunning themselves on a beach somewhere at this time of year, but Dougie Poynter and Tom Fletcher from McFly have decided to do something a bit more fun for their winter holiday. Tom and Dougie, along with their very gorgeous girlfriends Giovanna and Frankie (from The Saturdays), have been at the Universal Orlando Resort in Florida for the past week - and they've been making good use of all the scary rides on offer. And how do we know that they're scary? Just look at the expression on Frankie's face! The poor girl's terrified. This amazing snap was taken as Tom, Dougie, Giovanna and Frankie braved the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit rollercoaster. Blimey. Try saying that when you've had a few glasses of mulled wine. It's great to see them all having such a great time, isn't it? Hope you've brought us back some Mickey Mouse ears or something, guys!

Danny going opera

Stars set for classical showdown

It's not their aria of expertise... but that won't stop eight pop acts bidding for opera stardom.

Corrie's Kym Marsh is already clearing her throat in readiness for ITV1's new classical reality show, Popstar to Operastar.

Blur's Alex James, Bernie Nolan, McFly's Danny Jones, ex-Pop Idol star Darius Danesh, Shakespeare's Sister's Marcella Detroit, Jimmy Osmond and Vanessa White from girl band The Saturdays complete the line-up.

The artists will be trained to perform world-famous opera songs - with many singing in a different language for the first time. Welsh singing sensation Katherine Jenkins will mentor the stars, along with famed tenor Rolando Villazon.

And then - in a bizarre twist - they will be judged on their weekly efforts by rock legend Meat Loaf and makeover king and Classic FM DJ Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen.

A source said: "Thanks to Paul Potts, Rhydian and Il Divo, classical music is at the top of the charts.

"But can just anyone turn into a tremendous tenor or stunning soprano?"

Blur bassist James has five No1 albums under his belt, the Nolan sisters have sold more than 25 million records and McFly had seven No1 singles and two No1 albums. Little Jimmy Osmond sold more than 100 million records with his siblings and is also a platinumselling solo artist. Darius's debut single and album went in at No1, Kym's former band Hear'Say also had a chart-topping album and Marcella topped the hit parade for eight weeks with Shakespeare's Sister's hit Stay. White's band have enjoyed five top 10 singles since their debut in 2008.

Myleene Klass and Alan Titchmarsh will host the show, which kicks off on ITV1 on January 15.

News about backstage footage

There are some bad News for the ones, who thought that they could see the Backstage footages, which were made on the European Tour, sometime soon.

Mission:McFly contacted the Management and asked, when we can expect to see the Backstage Footages from the other countries (France, Holland, Germany), because as we already know Spain’s Backstage Footages were released with the Radio:ACTIVE CD in Spain. But there are bad news for us.


“I think the way to see it in the short term would be to get hold of a copy of the Spanish version, which will allow you access to the Opendisc website where there is a short piece of film from the Spanish gigs. None of the rest of the footage taken on the tour has yet been edited and so isn’t ready for public viewing, but I’m sure it will appear on the website some time next year.“
The only question left is when in 2010? We can’t wait for forever, can we?

McFly's new album

Thanks to McFly France we know a few more details about the new album from McFly.

According to the Management the album won’t be out between May and June. This of course depends on how fast the boys will work on it and on how fast they can finish the album!

As soon es the release date for the new album is set, McFly will start to plan their next Tour. Dare we hope for Norway or at least scandinavia this time??

Westlife fans of McFly

Presspuppy released an article saying, that the boyband Westlife are Fans of McFly and JLS.

Old timers to the pop charts Westlife have said that they like the music of JLS or that of Busted and McFly.

Westlife’s Mark Feehily has said:

“We love them. Ever since we started there’s been a McFly or Busted or JLS. There’s space for everyone.”

I’m sure that the Westlife boys have nothing to fear from all the new groups that keep popping up even if they are all in competition with each other for album and single sales.

But I think that Westlife have been around long enough that they seem to have worked out what works in a song.

Well good luck for Christmas

Spanish Articles

In the Spanish Yo Soy Black and the Star 2 there are articles about McFly. You can find the translations for the articles underneath. Thanks to Mateo for them and thanks toMcFly Spain for the scans.

Yo Soy Black:

Speaking with McFly!!!
„We thought that in Spain neither Peter would know us“
To celebrate their “come back” we had contact them. The call was really expensive but we pay so much, we need to hear their voices…

Suddenly you don’t stop coming to Spain… what do you like about Spain ??
McFly: we love how passionate our fans are here, we thought that here none know us but we were wrong.

The first time you came the fans trough Tangas and handcuffs at you, what did you do with all this stuff??
McFly: we took them home, Dougie has taken the suxual toys , and the rest we shared it out…

And… Were there indecent proposals from the fans ??
McFly: hahaha, some!! But I wont tell you if we accepted them or not…

Urchins!! You promised that the Cd would come in the beginning of 2010…
McFly: The new one? So that was a lie, we had already recorded some bases but we have a lot of work to do yet, you´ll get it at the end of the year…

And, how will be it?
McFly: Absolutely GENIAL!!!

You haven’t grandmother , do you ??
McFly: so is it!! It is different as all what we made so far, we have a challenge and it is surprise all of our fans and we are sure that we’ll going to accomplish it…

Sure youll do it!!What do you best like of McFly?
Harry: the best of McFly is that we’re handsome, sincere, discrete, and sweet just like me. The worst thing is Danny. He is ugly and smells really bad, isn’t he??

Nooo! He is super handsome too!!

Who complains most in a tour ??
Mcfly: all of us!! But in a positive sense, when we play we are happy so we can not too much complain.

Who calls most your mother ??
McFly: Dougie, he is “in love”

The most presumptuous of you?

McFly: ohh, that’s Danny. He always carry a lot of bags just for his shoes .

So is it !!! what would you do if you weren’t in the band ?

Mcfly: Harry would be forest guard, Danny garbage collector, Tom flight attendant and Dougie photograph.

Star 2:

McFly.After our first meeting in Madrid we took the telephone up and we talked with them .

“Singing in Spanish would be funny”

Star2: Hey guys! We loved your direct in the “under 18” how was your impression??
McFly: Buah, that was incredible we didn’t knew we have so much fans, we were just impressed when we saw this lots of people there were .

Star2: are the Spanish girls too diferents as the English girls?
McFly: it is complicated to know but the Spanish girls gave us an incredible energy, maybe because they were too happy to see us for the first time there.

Radio: ACTIVE has just released in our country. Which song do you love to sing live ??
McFly: we love “one for the radio” and “falling in love” we love to see the good reactions of the people when we sing.

Star2: you told us that you are already working in you new album…
McFly: Yes, but we cant tell you more, we have a lot of work to do yet. You must wait until summer to get it , but you will see how good it going to be .

Star2: Are you sure ?What are you planning?
McFly: we want to surprise you all, that will be something original and totally different to all what we made so far.

Star2: do you really want to do a new version from Enrique Iglesias?
McFly: we always want to do everything but that’s not always possible, we don’t know hahah… but I think that singing in Spanish would be really funny!.

Espanhola Top Music & Cine

As fãs Espanholas são muito encantadoras e apaixonadas!
Desde Novembro que podes desfrutar de uma edição especial para a Espanha do “Radio:Active”, o mais recente álbum dos McFly! Não percas!

Tom, Danny, Dougie e Harry (ou seja, McFly!!) estiveram em Espanha nos dias 1 e 2 de Dezembro para apresentar a sua nova edição do “Radio:Active” e actuar numa sessão do MySpace. Claro que a Top Music & Cine este com eles…

Olá rapazes! Não é a primeira vez que estão na Espanha, o que acham do nosso país?
Danny: Adoramos, é um lugar fantástico!
Tom: A comida é óptima e as fãs são encantadoras e muito apaixonadas. Ontem quando chegamos ao aeroporto estavam à nossa espera e foram muito simpáticas.
Dougie: É muito estranho estar na Espanha quando está frio, porque as pessoas só vêm aqui de férias à procura do calor! (risos)

A vossa música triunfa em vários sítios, qual é o segredo do vosso sucesso?
Tom: Não faço ideia… É uma combinação de várias coisas. Fazemos o nosso trabalho o melhor que conseguimos e somos todos melhores amigos. Isso faz com que seja tudo mais fácil. E claro, temos uns fãs incríveis.

E por todo o mundo…
Tom: Sim, isso só descobrimos este ano, que foi quando actuamos em mais países. Sabíamos que tínhamos fãs na Europa, América do Sul e Austrália graças à Internet, mas agora pudemos comprovar isso pessoalmente.

Vocês tentam dar o máximo de atenção aos vossos fãs?
Dougie: Tentamos interagir o máximo possível com eles, por exemplo nos concertos.

E também através da Internet?
Tom: Sim, utilizamos o Twitter e o MySpace para estar “conectados” com os fãs.

Actuar ao vivo é uma das coisas que os músicos mais gostam. Qual é a melhor parte de estar no palco para vocês?
Danny: Um dos melhores momentos é quando a multidão canta contigo.
Dougie: Sim, quando cantam e saltam!

Lembram-se de alguma situação divertida que vos aconteceu enquanto estavam a actuar?
Tom: Muitas! Por exemplo, uma vez o Harry caiu no meio do palco.

Se não estivessem numa banda, o que gostariam de fazer?
Danny: Futebol.
Dougie: Gostaria de ser uma mulher.
Tom: E eu gostaria de ser o teu marido (risos)
Harry: Sinceramente não sei…
Danny: O Harry seria um cavaleiro.

McFly… e as raparigas!!
Que arrasam entre as fãs já sabemos, mas têm assim tanto sucesso com as raparigas? Segundo o que nos contaram, é o Harry que tem mais sucesso, mas ele assegurou-nos que isso deve-se ao facto de ele ser o único que não tem namorada. Está comprovado que numa entrevista perfeita com eles não podem faltar “conversa, diversão e gargalhadas”. E estes rapazes são super simples e divertem-se com coisas muito normais como praticar desporto e sair para festas. De certeza que muitas raparigas não se importavam de os acompanhar, certo?

CHEEKY PEEK-END
The Saturdays' Frankie Sanford and McFly's Dougie are the hottest couple on the block
Frankie

NOT since POSH & BECKS in their heyday has there been a young Brit showbiz couple both so hot at the same time. But SATURDAYS sex bomb FRANKIE SANFORD and her McFLY hunk DOUGIE POYNTER are the hot new couple on the block, dominating both categories despite tough competition.
Dougie blushed: "I guess we're the Posh and Becks of Essex but I'm nowhere near as cool as him! But Frankie does look amazing. I have been working out lately too - my metabolism isn't what it once was." Yeah, at 22 you're getting on a bit, Dougie.

Tom lights up a Christmas party

McFly star lights up charity Christmas party

A popstar made a surprise visit to the Alexander Devine Children’s Cancer Trust Christmas party on Sunday. McFly frontman Tom Fletcher dropped by Oakley Court in Windsor for the bash, attended by children under the care of Wexham Park Hospital Trust, together with children from the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading.
Tom, who is lead singer for the chart-topping band, said: “It was great to meet some of these amazing children and their families, and it really brought home to me just how much these families need a local children’s hospice. I think the work Alexander Devine Children’s Cancer Trust is doing is fantastic, and I hope they achieve their aim of building the hospice in the very near future.” The star-studded bash was also attended by Tony Blackburn, Coronation Street star Patti Clare and Sarah Lark, who is currently appearing in Oliver! in the West End. More than 30 families enjoyed an afternoon of Christmas fun.
Fiona and John Devine who founded the charity in memory of their son, said: “It was wonderful to meet so many of the families who are now being supported by Lucy, our community paediatric palliative care nurse, and also families from West Berkshire who would also benefit from having a children’s hospice in the county."

Atlanta report on McFly

That’s right. McFly, who have had countless singles charted on the Top 40, many awards given to them for their music, and were even featured in that god-awful movie with Lindsay Lohan(At least they were good in it!), just made a trip all the way to Atlanta.

They left from Spain in the first couple days in December, took a flight to London, and arrived in Atlanta on the third. The boys were all surprised when they found fans waiting for them at the airport, according to them, they did not know they had fans over here. At least not fanatic ones that would meet them at the airport.

Apparently they do not know that they are considered extremely attractive and shagworthy amongst American teens as well as international teens.

Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, and Dougie Poynter were the only ones to come abroad. Harry Judd, the last of the infamous four, was in England creating Oasis, a place for kids with terminal illnesses to forget the bad times and find only the good.

Fortunately for me, I have been waiting more than four years for them to come here. I even started a petition with over seven hundred signatures just so they would play and perhaps I could get a backstage pass. Who would’ve thought that roughly four years later they would be just five minutes away from where I go to college.


As soon as I heard about the boys coming to Atlanta, I divulged a plan. On Tom’s twitter, he had posted about his hotel, “Hotel here is awesome. A 12ft Christmas tree, a fire place, a tropical fish tank, 7 swans are swimming, 6 geese are laying…”.

This may seem like a tiny insignificant little detail on the road to finding where they were staying, but for me and my now-excited roommate, Sarah, we were determined.

We phoned plenty of hotels in the area, asking about all of the above, and plenty had trees, but no tropical fish tanks could be found. (I know- we were full-fledged stalkers. But this is my favorite band, and a once in a lifetime opportunity!)

Long story short, we found the hotel, saw them leaving for an appointment, told them we would wait, waited for over five hours, went home, may I add, deeply disappointed. We went back on Sunday, two days later, and from there, you will just have to watch what happened. I documented our journey of stalking McFly into a youtube video called ‘Where’s McFly’. I will post the second part at the end of this article since I have already updated you on the first.

The members of McFly were the most humble people I have ever met. They were really nice, caring, and funny as well. I hope they come back soon, as I will do anything I can to see them again. Roundtrip ticket to London, Mom? I can only hope.

The boys tweeted many times that they loved their experience in Atlanta, since it was only for writing new songs, and hope to come back soon. Why Atlanta? Maybe the two or more dinners they had with Elton John and the recording with Dallas Austin. Who knows, but I’m definitely happy they decided to come.



Tom even tweeted about us after we met him: “So tired! Sitting in the bar at the hotel having some coffee…met some lovely fans who waited hours for us. We’ve got to tour America!”

So this is my way of saying, open yourself up to opportunity and go for it. You never know what sort of chances there will be. It could be your favorite band, celebrity, singer/songwriter, or something totally unrelated. All you have to remember is to just go for it.
