The US reality show Dancing With The Stars will return next week for more hip swivelling and fancy footwork, and as usual, the ABC network has gathered together an interesting bunch of celebrities, all hungry for the infamous prize: An additional 15 minutes – and that magnificent trophy, of course.

The mix of entertainers will include pop star Belinda Carlisle, actress Denise Richards, jackass Steve-O, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak and notorious rapper Latoya Jackson – sorry, Lil’ Kim.

In what will be a first for the Strictly Come Dancing spin-off, real life couples will also be competing. Two-time professional champion Julianne Hough will dance with real-life beau, singer Chuck Wicks, while country music star Jewel will compete against her husband, bull rider Ty Murray.

Along with Julianne, Reigning pro champion Derek Hough will return to the ballroom, together with past pro champions Mark Ballas and Cheryl Burke.

Joining the pros this season and adding a double shot of young blood, will be Chelsea Hightower and Dmitry Chaplin, who, along with season 7 newcomer Lacey Schwimmer, competed on the Fox network reality dance show So You Think You Can Dance. 

The new season kicks off on March 12 at 8 p.m. on UKTV’s new entertainment channel, Watch – or March 9 in America.

Just watch it for the Pros – now that’s what I call dancing!

Fashionista vs Gladiator Round 1 – Nadal

Congratulations Rafa!

But I really feel for Federer right now. I never thought i’d see the former number one reduced to tears.

Fashionista vs Gladiator

 

And so it begins again – as if it wasn’t to be expected. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will meet on Sunday, for a record seventh time in a Grand Slam final, when the two go head-to-head in Melbourne for the Australian Open Title.

This meeting will be the 19^th for the two athletes,with Nadal leading 12-6 overall and 4-2 in major finals.However, it will be the first time they have played one another in Melbourne and on hard courts in a Grand Slam.

It’s hard to predict an outcome for this match, as every encounter between the pair seems to be taken to epic proportions, with sublime tennis from both players – the most notable being the 2008 Wimbledon final which Nadal won in five sets, denying Federer a sixth consecutive title and ending his love affair with the All England Club. Le pauvre – I wonder if we’ll be seeing tailored cardigans this year?!

Subsequently, that final went on to become the longest championship match in the history of Wimbledon and a tipping point, in what is fast becoming one of the greatest sporting rivalries of all time.

And so to Sunday, and the Rod Laver Arena…. Federer will be coming into this – well, looking very stylish for a start – but more importantly, looking to equal Pete Sampras’ record of 14 Grand Slam titles.

Nadal, on the other hand, will no doubt be a little fatigued (after his marathon semi-final on Friday) and as usual, taped up to the rafters, as he focuses on claiming his first Grand Slam title on hard courts, and his first in Melbourne.

The statistics:

World number two versus world number one,

Thirteen Grand Slam titles as opposed to five,

Swiss supremacy against the Spanish underdog,

Grace and precision versus brute force and acrobatics,

The boy next door against a lovable rogue,

Blazers and cardigans as opposed to sleeveless shirts and Capris,

Calm and collected versus persistent and passionate,

Fashionista versus Gladiator.

I’m torn….

I love fashionistas, but tell me, who can resist a gladiator?!

They Keep Reading My Mind

I thought I had seen it all with ‘Gorilla’ but, for the world of animal lovers, it just keeps getting better! 

Over the past few months i’ve been traveling around the Paris metro and can now say I have officially been introduced to the brand Orangina (point) Although, I am feeling a little exposed seeing myself on the walls like that…lol

I thoroughly recommend you check out the rest of the print campaign online. 

The TV ad

As much as i like the campaign, I thought Orangina had kiddy appeal? Little Kiddies don’t exactly spring to mind!
