FutureProof Interview.

FutureProof are made up of Jonni, Kiran and Charlie.
And I got the chance to interview them whilst they were in Nottingham for their performance at Rock City supporting Twenty Twenty with Room 94 and the local support The Hush. They're absolutely lovely, I mean after Charlie left us standing in the rain because he didn't email us back (Bethan now has a cold).

So, I had a bit of trouble getting someone to interview them with me, cancellations and all, but finally Bethan agreed and we met up at just before after half 4 in Nottingham, the whole bus journey was spent with me waiting for an e-mail back from Charlie....
When we got there it was raining so I bought a £3 umbrella from Primark (which I quite like), and as per usual a hot chocolate from Caffe Nero, and then we went and stood by Rock City. Bethan dragged me to the car park (I had no idea it existed), where we stood and by about 6 I decided to go to the doors at the back, where a guy unloading a van was standing and he went and got Kiran for me.
I must say I prefer where the FutureProof interview took place compared to the TwentyTwenty interview, it was a hell of a lot less formalised, even though the lighting was darker it still seemed more relaxed....

April '12 Favourites.

Quite a lot of these are things I've used before but they have become my favourite things to use over April.

Liquid Eyeliner - I'm planning on purchasing the Penultimate eyeliner by MAC, but because I've never really used it before I decided to stick with something a little bit cheaper, so bought a drug-store brand.
I am now in love with liquid eyeliner, I'm still yet to try gel-liner because, as I said, I've never really been an avid user of eyeliner. Nearly every day that I have worn make-up I have used my liquid eyeliner, and I was quite surprised on the quality of the Collection 2000 Waterproof liquid eyeliner, it doesn't smudge and is relatively easy to apply, however I would say that it needs a bit of practice first, especially if you're planning on winging the eyeliner as it doesn't always make a fine point.


Next up is The Body Shops's Brazil Nut Body Butter, now I must say this has been a favourite ever since I started buying it last year, but I've been using it sooooo much this month. In February and March I decided to mix up my moisturisers and use a non-The Body Shop one.. (This is surprising for me). I suffer with quite bad eczema, and I find it difficult to find a moisturiser that can keep on top of it without the need for any creams prescribed by a Doctor. However, this body butter fully moisturises my skin, and I haven't had to use a prescribed cream in months. It also smells ridiculously good <3. Big love for this body butter.

Now onto Temple Run... so... I jumped on the band wagon and downloaded Temple Run.... Very bad idea. I'm now addicted. But it is a great game.. I just wish I hadn't jumped on that band wagon...

The Avengers review.

Warning: This review contains spoilers and fangirling. Lots of fangirling.Note: Even though it's called 'Avengers Assemble' in the UK, I refuse to call it that, and therefore, 'The Avengers' it is.
This film is incredible. I've seen it twice now, once with a friend who hadn't seen Captain America, but had seen the rest, and once with another friend who is just as obsessed with the whole universe as I am.

Introducing - Lawson

Lawson are a group of four, Joel, Adam, Andy and Ryan, signed to Polydor.
Joel and Ryan were already friends from home, Adam messaged Andy to meet up with the idea of putting a band together, Andy knew Ryan through the London music scene and ta da Lawson were formed.
Joel is from Nottingham - (my hometown, therefore he is immediately awesome), Ryan is from Sheffield, Adam from Brighton and Andy is from Liverpool.
All four members play instuments - reason 1 why they are awesome, (reason 2 for Joel). They can flawlessly cover an Ed Sheeran song - reason 2 (reason 3 for Joel - you get the drill...). The majority of people will tell you that no-one should Ever cover an Ed Sheeran song because it just doesn't work well and can be easily ruined, but Lawson have done the almost impossible task of performing their cover of A-Team absolutely flawlessly.

The Dead Famous tell the world

Tell the world about The Dead Famous


The Dead Famous uploaded a new video on their YouTube channel on the 11th November. Tell the world was recorded live at the Underworld in Camden. (It's in London)
This is the second song that they've put on their YouTube, the first being Superstar, which is also amazing.
You may have already heard Tell the world on their facebook page. First of all, the song is amazing, (I currently have it on repeat whilst writing this). Second, all four of them look rather beautiful too (Luke wore a black shirt - this instantly adds to the hotness) .. although, it could be the lighting, but James looks so pale that he's close to collapsing. 
Throughout the whole performance they're a lively bunch, this would probably make it amazing to see them live.
I loved that last note James hit, and there's no point in pretending, these guys can definitely sing.

The Wanted - Lightning

The Wanted - Lightning (Official Video).



On Thursday 22nd September 2011, Lightning by The Wanted Official Video was premiered on the 4music website at 4o'clock. The TWFanmily had to wait a few minutes for the website to load the video, during these few minutes panic literally appeared to spread through the impatient fans. Meanwhile I was sat there actually waiting patiently.
