Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh stops


Girls Aloud star Kimberley Walsh stops to ask for directions as she loses her way round central London.

Who live in London for a band and have played there on many occasions, you'd have thought that Girls Aloud would know the city like the back of their hands.
But in a big town it's easy to lose your sense of direction, as Kimberley Walsh discovered this weekend.
The girl band member looked around her in bewilderment as she left her hotel in central London this weekend.

Walsh, 29, and her assistant spent a few minutes standing around aimlessly, looking in both directions as they left the Sanderson Hotel.
Having concluded that they had no idea where they were going, it was down to a helpful local to show them the way.
Kimberley was snapped stopping to ask a restaurant owner directions, who gladly obliged.

She then laughed as she realised where she was going as she and her assistant headed off in the right direction.
Kimberley is still enjoying Girls Aloud's recent hiatus and has been trying to get into TV presenting while the other four also pursue solo projects
She was tipped to present ITV2's spin off show The Xtra Factor for its upcoming new series, but the job went to former Blue Peter presenter Konnie Huq.

She currently starred in a documentary on Sky 1 called Kimberley Walsh: Blue Jean Girl, which focused on the singer delving into the world of denim, after struggling to find the perfect pair of jeans her herself.
She also recently denied rumours that Girls Aloud where splitting and told Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby on This Morning: 'We’ve definitely not split up, but we are enjoying trying out new things.
'It's funny because even though we are not together we are still supporting each other in our own little pathways, so it feels like you have got them with you. But no, we’ve not split up.'

Girls Aloud: At Airbrake gig


Girls Aloud the line up for this month's Harp Ice Cold Big Gig brings together some of the best home grown talent, featuring two female fronted bands that are quickly climbing to the top.
Female fronted headliners Sweet Jane, based in Dublin, have quickly become one of Ireland's most exciting and talked about rock and roll bands.
The foursome released in 2008 their debut EP ‘Blackboots & Blackhearts’ to raving reviews resulting in their 2009 signing to Reekus Records in Ireland. They have supported the likes of Glasvegas, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, A Place To Bury Strangers, The Kills, White Lies and more.
Second on the bill for this month’s concert on June 25 at in the Spring and Airbrake, Belfast, are Silhouette, a dark, alternative band fronted by the multi-talented Shauna Tohill, from Magherafelt.
The cutting edge group of musicians create finely crafted, heartfelt music through a mixture of cello, double bass and drums. They are appearing shortly after their return from a successful showcase in LA and ahead of their appearance at the Glasgowbury festival.
Nasa Assassin are bringing full throttle rock to this month’s line up. This enigmatic band from Lisburn, Carrickfergus and Banbridge make few appearances and surrender yet less information about their influences or history. They simply ask you allow them to be the soundtrack to your night next Friday.

'Will Be Back Next Year' Girls Aloud


Kimberley Walsh has revealed that at some point next year Girls Aloud will 'probably get back together'.
Rumours surrounding whether there would be a GA reunion have surfaced in current months, following reports that member Nadine Coyle was jealous of Cheryl Cole's solo success but Walsh insists the girls will be getting back in the studio soon.

Walsh told Star magazine: "Fingers crossed, we'll be getting back into the studio at some point - probably next year,"
"I don't actually know what direction the music will go in. We never plan any further ahead than a few months and never have. It has always been quite an organic thing."
She continued: "We never actually thought we'd end up still here, seven years down the line. God knows where we'll end up!"
