THE EVIL SPIDER FROM THE SHOWER……

alex — Thu, 11 Nov 2010 16:03:17 +0000

Hello everyone, how are we all on this crappy Monday morning, so depressing when it rains! I don’t mind the cold though.. Last night I went to Bedgebury Forest with the family. It was so nice, went to see an art installation called the ‘Electric Forest’. It was a beautiful night and I forgot how much I just love to see the stars! Where I live you never see them. I was all wrapped up warm, with my family, drinking mulled wine and roasting marsh mellows on an open fire. How cosy is that?

SO LETS JUST TALK ABOUT MY SHOWER FROM HELL!
I had just got out the shower, and was in my towel moisturising, minding my own business… When I felt an itch on my back, I turned around to look at my back in the mirror and I have a spider crawling up my backkkkk!!!!!!!! I am petrified of spiders, was this karma? I must have done something seriously wrong for ME to get a SPIDER on my BACK. I am so afraid of them… I was on my own and screaming like a girl for about ten minutes, couldn’t stop itching, and I didn’t trust anything… How the hell did this beast get onto my back.
I managed to capture the spider, under a glass, so that my Mum could see when I got home as I knew she would laugh at me! Some of you might think this spider is nothing, but for those of you who are afraid you will think this is a MONSTER OF DOOOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!! errrghhhh I’m getting all itchy and funny just talking about it!

I just don’t know what it is about spiders that scare me so much? It’s the bodies………..

UNTIL NEXT TIME………………

ANNOUNCING MY EXCITING NEWS!

alex — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 13:49:20 +0000

Hello to the beautiful people reading this blog!

I have some very exciting news for you all. I am thrilled to announce that Teen Nick have a new series that has just been launched in the States as well as Canada. It is called Gigantic and my song ‘Dizzy From The Ride’ is the theme tune!!!!!!!!! Wooohooo! It has ‘Meryl Streeps’ daughter in it, and also has the same producers as ‘Greys Anatomy’ and ‘Buffy The Vampire Slayer’. I am hugely excited about this and I really hope that it does well and comes over to the UK so we can all watch it.

I have a feeling it will do great because I saw the trailer for it and I know that growing up I used to watch Nick everrrry day and this programme would have been right up my street! It still is to be honest! Haha I am such a big Kid…..

I am also a feature on the American wesbite for Gigantic on Teen Nick.com. They have run a blog on me with some fun facts about me. I am dying to have a look, but over in the UK any time you try to access the wesbite it directs you to our UK version!
For now all I can offer you is a little video on ‘You Tube’. It has a picture of the cast and my song playing in the back ground. I am going to try my hardest and get some screen grabs from the American website for you!!

Spread the word, lets hope if it comes over to the UK we can get a huge following going for the programme! Thanks for all your support… Love you Guys! x x x x x x x xx x x x

My song on….Jersey Shore

alex — Mon, 11 Oct 2010 15:09:03 +0000

Hey Guys, how are you all doing?
I am not sure whether you all work Jersey Shore, I certainly do and it’s hilarious, GUUUIIDDOOOO! So I was very happy that my song was played in the U.S on Thursday, They played the song ‘Fake’… I wonder why? Hehe, you will have to watch the show and then you will know why they chose that song! I hope it gets played over here … I will be so proud!

I did some recording with Pantha in the studio this week, we came up with a few ideas and hopefully we can do a little collaboration one day in the future!

Had the fish eat at my feet on Wednesday…. Hello foot model

It was honestly the weirdest feeling ever! At one stage I had both my feet in two separate tanks which felt totally weird, ticklish, I screamed a few times, once you get used to it though it feels strangely relaxing

Just watched x factor, ONE DIRECTION ARE SOOO CUTE, literally am in love with Harry…. They are all like mini Justin Biebers, loving Cher love how much controversy she has created, she kills it every time, she is one to watch! And Matt the painter, his voice is special!

Much love

Speed Boat.. River Thames

alex — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 00:50:25 +0000

This weekend for my little brother’s birthday.. My Mum, Jack and I went up to London to go on the ‘ultimate James Bond Experience’…This speed boat goes really fast thrashing you around on the Thames… I was not looking forward to this in the morning after feeling worse for wear from the night before! But by 6pm I was good to go

So apparently there is a famous scene where Bond is on this boat…..In one of his films… So this is me looking like a God Dam sexy Bond Girll…. Sexiest Bond Girl you have ever seeen

Ready for this???

Ready???

HAHAHAHAAAA....... FAR FROM IT RIGHT...

haha, it was good fun though getting all kitted out, even if the coats did smell like wet fish….
People to have gone on the boat … Subo, Richard Hammond, yeahhh thats all I can remember, oh and the next bond girl ME!!!! in that glamorous attire

Recording with Stevie C.

alex — Sun, 26 Sep 2010 13:45:02 +0000

Had a great time recording in Hammersmith at the gorgeous studios with Steve Chrisanthou, I was recording a song called ‘Can’t Stop Watching You’ and I had a really great time….
Lots of laughs, especially using his fat face application on his phone, I need to get a copy of that photo he took of me I look obese!

LETS JUST TALK ABOUT GOSSIP GIRL PLEASE. I NEARLY POOED MY PANTS WITH DELIGHT IT WAS UN REAL, THE CLOTHES, THE BOYS, THE GIRLS, PARIS PARIS PARIS, THE LOUVRE, WATERFALLS, AMAZING FOOD, BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE, THE HAIRRRRRRRRRRRR, THE STORY LINES OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. ONE OF THE BEST EPISODESSSS EVERRRRRRRRRRR

Back to Steve….. The studios were pretty snazzy for my liking, to get to the toilets you had to turn on the lights (standard) to turn the lights on you have to clap twice! (Not so standard) how rock and roll? OHH HELLOOO DARRRRLINGGGG I just clap my hands and lights come on, rah rah rahhh!
Here iS Steve and I… He says I am sitting at Elton Johns Piano ??? Do I believe this, I bloody well hope it’s true! Having a giggle even though we had only met 30 mins before hand! He was a good guy….

Awful hair, excuse it please! This happened when the heavens decided to pour a years worth of rain on top of me.

Talking of the heavens opening, I needed to buy an umbrella?? 16 QUID! WHAT???? I managed to get one in the end for a tenner but come on!

Were not all made a’ money mate!

On the way home from my little college course that I have started, one of the guys from it was on the train… Got talking to him and it turns out that he and his friend were the ones who brought back the little fish that eat at your feet to England! I didn’t believe him at first, but then I asked him to prove it and he said he was on fearne cottons show and also on Loose women! How cool, and who would have thought that they were from my home townnn, woop woop!

I am defoooo hinting for a free fish job hehheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Off now. BYE

Mummmy birthday pllleaseee?

Can’t wait for this on my birthdayyyyyyy! I love Gilagamesh

Wooop wooop

I kept trying to upload to video links and it really won’t work but basically here are my thoughts.
Katy Perry the man in your video is Gorgeous, Poor Russel Brand. I would chose Russey Baby any day though I love a man that makes you laugh.
Really like the new music video for Paramore, Careful. If I was ever as successful and lucky as them I would love to make a video of a tour like they have done. It’s very personal. I am seeing Paramore in November and I am so excited. They are one off or if not my favourite band! Love themmm especially Hayley. She is amazing and I am loving her new blonde hair

Night night from me in beddddddd speccccyyyysss
