Here at Retro Pop we can’t get enough of Kian Egan and his debut album this week. We may just prefer his solo stuff to fellow Westlife’r Shane. It must be the guitar and the rough boy image. What do you think? Is it time for a Westlife reunion yet? Or are we loving the boys on their own.
Boyzone have released the video for new single Who We Are taken from their latest album BZ 20. The video is one of simplicity and focuses on the boys recording the song and having fun. Seen the boys laugh and joke with each other made us at Retro Pop feel all warm inside. For their ages the boys are still looking hot hot hot. Watch the video below
5ive’s Scott Robinson has added another You Tube video to his channel. This time the cheeky chappy star of Big Reunion fame is serenading us with a slow rendition of John Legend All of Me. Who knew how well Scott could sing well we certainty didn’t realize.
He apologized to all fans for not doing a you tube in so long as hes been busy with his new-born twins (ah how cute). Let Scott serenade you by watching the video below:

Girl Thing in 2000
Rewind a few years and Girl Thing was promised that they would be the next big thing. Unfortunately the girls were never on top and went their separate ways. Life took all 5 girls in different directions. Fast forward to the year 2014 and the girls are back with the help of the Big Reunion.
Anikia admitted ‘’we never even expected to be on the show!’’
Since the show has begun to air the girls have been getting a lot of attention and the response has been positive.
”People have been so nice to us and showing so much love and support! It’s amazing!! said Anika. Linzi added ‘’It’s just amazing. The people have warmed to us. Were quite humble about it because we didn’t have the expectations. It did surprise us.’’
After the first Girl Thing episode aired the public were shocked as to how honest the girls were about their previous days as a band.
Michelle agreed ‘’back then we were spoiled and fell from a great height, we were muppets’’. ‘’People weren’t aware of our story. We had to be honest about it’’ said Linzi. Nikki agreed ‘’that was the reason we never really went anywhere in the first place. We were surrounded by people who we’re not honest which made life in the band difficult. ’’Anikia quickly added that ‘’it was a whole therapy and healing process for me and it brought closure.’’
Girl Thing during Big Reunion rehearsals
The five girls are all mothers to wonderful children and juggling the band and responsibilities of children seems to be a natural process for the girls.
Linzi revealed that ‘’it’s been very pricey for me as I have to hire somebody who is special needs trained. Where there’s a will there’s a way.’’ Michelle agreed and said that they get on with it like any other working mothers out there.
The girls agreed the biggest thing that they will take away from the Big Reunion experience will be the friendships and the happy ending that Girl Thing got as a band.
Linzi added its nice to ‘’rewrite the ending’’ with Nikki adding ‘’ The Hammersmith show was great fun. I’ll remember that as it was probably the only large show Girl Thing ever did as a band performing more than a song or two.’’
I wouldn’t rule out some new material or the possibility of a tour for the girls.
Anikia stated ‘’ it’s up to the fans if they wanna see more of us, we deff loved being back on stage! It’s a hard industry so fingers crossed!’’ while the other girls were quick to comment ‘’never say never’’ added Michelle while Linzi admitted ‘’that she would never turn her back on the girls.’’
Retro Pop hopes the future will include these 5 girls been on the top.
Recently reformed Damage have bagged their follow up to the Big Reunion appearance. The boys have bagged their own fly on the wall reality series. The ”Ghetto Romance” hit makers reformed last year for the second series of ITV’s hit show the Big Reunion.

Jade Jones, Rahsaan J Bromfield, Andrez Harriott and Noel Simpson are set to be followed around by cameras once again. Viewers will see their private lives while helping aspiring musicians get into the business.
However talks are only in the early stages however the band are said to very excited to have been approached. Damage first mentioned the possibility of starring in their own reality show earlier this week.
Jones told The Sun “It’s a music-led documentary – not just solely about us – but there will be other elements involved.” Damage are currently appearing in the new series of The Big Reunion, minus original member Coreé Richards, who decided to go solo. We say it’s his loss.
Jodi Albert has dramatically gone legally blonde leaving her brown long locks on the floor. She now spurs a blonde shorter hair do. She looks stunning. Let us know what you think.
We are currently working on the Girl Thing interview heres a spoiler from Nikki.
You have to be honest in life. That was the reason we never really went anywhere in the first place. We were surrounded by people who we’re not honest which made life in the band difficult.
