POPSTARS: L5 Returning as "New L5"

 Popstars band L5 has returned this year for a tour and maybe new singles and an album.

The band was formed in 2001 in France,in the Popstars TV show and released 3 albums and a Greatest hits album. L5 disbanded in 2007.

 Originally formed by Marjorie, Alexandra, Colarie, Louisy Joseph and Claire, they conquered France bringing number 1 singles like "Toutes Les Femmes de Ta Vie", "Une Ètincelle" and "A Ta Liberté".

  Now, 2016, The girls decided to come up with a new Formation. 

 Original Band members Alexandra, Coralie and Marjorie still are L5 girls, and 2 new members were added: Julie and Adeline. And the girls are amazing.

Julie Herbillon

Adeline Gomez

 The New L5 is currently touring around France, and let's have our fingers crossed to have new singles and albums.

POPSTARS 2015: Eliminated of the week (One Withdrawing)

 Say goodbye to 3 girls this week on POPSTARS.
 Nini and Christin were eliminated and SADLY SADLY SADLY Gina Christin decided to withdraw saying she wouldn't make a good member of the upcoming new popstars band :(

 Oh Gina, Why? They should make a "recall", "second chance". whatever, and convince Gina to be back and bring Virginia back (Still can't understand why the jury eliminated her, but well).

 15 girls remaining in the BANDHAUS and only 5 will make it to the band.
 Here's my new BIG YES and BIG NO of the week:

BIG YES

BIG NO

Jesus Gina, what did you have in mind, girl ?????????????

POPSTARS 2015

Popstars is back, after a 3 years break, and its back to it's original channel RTL II.
 The show will air next week, monday at 8:15 PM Germany time.
 Back to it's original format, the show is looking for a new Girl Band, 5 members (By the way, we need new "Angels").

 The Jury consists of Miss Platnum, Choreographer Bella Garcia and Stefanie Heinzmann.
 The 27 girls will be vocal and dancing trained, guided, during 8 weeks in the band house.
 Among these 27 girls, there's Austrians (Gabriela for example), Germans, French (Ludivine), Mongolia (Ulana) and even a girl from Georgia (Nini).
 With the new logo, totally revamped (More modern), I truly hope this new band will make a huge success, differently from previous seasons, like the seasons from 2009,2010,2011 and 2012,respectively forming "Some & Any", LaVive, Kilmokit/ BFF and Melouria.

 In 2000, Popstars formed the big album selling and huge success "No Angels. 2001, "Bro'Sis". 2003, "Overground" and "Preluders". 2004 formed "Nu Pagadi". 2006 season formed another huge success "Monrose" and 2008, popstars formed the great "Queensberry".

THE 27 SEMI-FINALISTS

So, basing on the videos of the auditions of the girls and on their charisma, here's my BIG YES finalists and BIG NO finalists:

MY BIG YES

MY BIG NO

Now, the remaining 9 candidates below are the ones I'm still undecided about. Don't have an opinion yet (let's wait for the show to start and then comment about them). Although, the girls with the red heart on their pics, are the ones I'd love to know more about or cheer for them to make it to the band.

POPSTARS 2015: Back to RTL II

Germany is about to have a brand new season of  POPSTARS!

 The 11th season of Popstars is back, and returning to it's origins: RTL II.

The first season of popstars happened in 2000, on RTL II channel, and then it was broadcast on a different channel, ProSieben. But now, The TV show is back to its original channel and it's looking for the new "No Angels". 

 That's right, this 11th season is already on the search for a new girl band, and the auditions already started.

 The show will air this summer and has 3 Jury members Already: Choreographer Bella Garcia, and singers Miss Platnum and Stefanie Heinzmann.

The last girl band formed on the show (entitled Popstars: Girls Forever), was LaVive, back in 2010.

 Unfortunately, LaVive failed on the charts and the 4 girls disbanded.

 Let's hope this new girl band will conquer Germany just like No Angels, Monrose and Queensberry did.

MUSIC: Sarah Harding "Threads" Single announced

 Via her twitter account, ex- Girls Aloud Member Sarah Harding announced her very expected debut solo single.
 Entitled "Threads", the single will be released on August 7th.
 After The Band hiatus, in 2009, Sarah has told she would release an album solo, but only after 6 years later we're finally seeing it happen.
 Cheryl released her debut solo single in 2009, Nadine in 2010, Nicola in 2011 and Kimberley in 2013. Now its Sarah's turn.
SLAY US Sarah.
