Seriously Social - The Catwalk To Kilimanjaro Launch

Daniella, Georgia, Louise and Roz at the launch.

Ireland's favourite models strutted their stuff at Harry's On The Green this Wednesday night and it was all in the name of charity.

Georgia Salpa, Roz Purcell, Louise Johnston and Daniella Moyles have all signed up for the massive climb to Kilimanjaro.






The girls took to the stage to thank everyone.
The four AR Models have been busting their asses training three times a week and starting a new strict diet plan, and it's all to raise money for the Make-A-Wish foundation.

But as well as raising funds, the girls were raising the fashion bar this Wednesday night, when they stepped out for the launch. So of course I have to go through all their outfits with you, as well as their fabulous hair.






Roz and Louise at the launch.

Firstly, Ireland's Top model and former Miss Universe Ireland, Rozanna Purcell looked stunning as always, this time flaunting her gorgeous long legs in floral hot pants and a flowing white shirt, paired with a red skinny belt and to-die-for soft orange high heels with studs.

And celebrating the return of Fade Street while enjoying the launch all in one night was Louise Johnston. The Dublin star kept it simple with straight blonde locks, a two toned beige and grey flowy dress and dark beige high heels.






Georgia and Daniella at the launch

Tabloid favourite and girlfriend to Calum Best, Georgia Salpa sported long black hair extensions, skin-tight jeans and a belly top showing off that super toned stomach of hers and flaunting her teeny-tiny figure.

Last but certainly not least, RTE Bulletin TV's Daniella Moyles showed off her petite figure in this gorgeous short dress. The Oxegen TV presenter also had her hair in curls, swept to the side, showing off her balayage look. (Check out her Celebrity Diary in today's Herald HERE.)







Geraldine O'Callaghan

As well as enjoying some Kilimanjaro cocktails, all thanks to Harry's On The Green, guests got to chat to the four stars, who will be climbing Kilimanjaro in October for the Make-A-Wish foundation.

Also enjoying the night was Apprentice and Celebrity Masterchef star Geraldine O'Callaghan, who works as a hostess in the bar. And also spotted at the launch was Miriam O'Callaghan's model daughter turned lawyer Alannah McGurk.






Miss UN Europe Sami Long

Other guests included Miss UN Europe Sami Long, singer Mickey Harte and his wife Louise, plus Conor Deehan (who made the hilarious video below).






Mickey Harte and wife Louise.

And let's not forget, of course the night was all in the name of charity folks and thankfully a lot of money was raised at the launch alone.

Lorna Weightman, the presenter of Style Nation, helped organise the climb and the new TV3 documentary about journey airing in a few months.

She told Miss Red that there are over 200 children on the waiting list, so all funds are really needed, and the girls are so passionate about helping out the charity.

Georgia Salpa Moves To AR Models With Louise Johnston and Daniella Moyles

In Saturday's HERALD I broke the exclusive news first that Georgia Salpa was leaving Assets for Andrea Roches's modelling agency, and today the move has finally been confirmed!

Ireland's most photographed model Georgia has left behind the company that made her who she is today, Assets Models. Owner of the company Derek Daniels is said to be "really annoyed" about the depature that is set to land Georgia a massive lingerie campaign in the coming weeks.

A source at the agency revealed to Miss Red that Georgia moved to AR models because Andrea made her an offer she couldn't refuse. An insider revealed:

"A deal has definitely been made. Andrea has some good contacts in England, and has promised to get Georgia more deals now that she's got great publicity in the UK since dating Calum. Assets were never going to do enough for her."



Georgia has become more popular thanks to Calum.

The surprising move has confused people in the industry as former model Andrea deals with mostly high fashion shoots and catwalk shows. Although Georgia may be able to pull off strutting her stuff down the runway, a source revealed that Andrea has other things in mind for the half Greek beauty.

"There will be no more press calls for Georgia. She wants to have a big brand behind her, just like Roz Purcell is the face of Gosh. Andrea has great contacts in department stores too, we think she will land a Lingerie deal."
No matter what direction Georgia's career takes next, it is clear that she will be making a lot more money. Since hooking up with bad boy Calum the stunning model has upped her rates for both press calls and public appearances.

An insider says she changed her price for an appearance from €300 to €500 and she was also doubling her prices for a press call. "You wouldn't move from the biggest agency in the country if money wasn't involved." the source added.

Although Assets is being credited for finding Georgia and putting her on the path to stardom, insiders admit that the model walking out and going to a rival agency has been like a "slap in the face" to owner Derek.




Daniella and Louise have also moved to AR

Meanwhile Fade Street beauty Louise (22), who previously said that she was "too short to be a model" has also signed on to work for AR. Although she has no previous modelling experience and has never strutted down a runway, sources say she is highly popular as a commercial model.

An insider said Louise will be perfect for commerical jobs:

"Louise is really only after getting into modelling because of Fade Street,  but she has a pretty face and that's all you need for press calls."

Louise's pal Daniella (21), who recently presented Oxegen TV for the first time, has also joined the AR team. The Irish beauties are now on the same book as the stunning Roz Purcell, Pippa O'Connor, Emma Waldron and Rosanna Davison.

Oxegen 2011 Highlights

There are so many highlights from this year's Oxegen Festival. From watching Black Eyed Peas boost a move to seeing Foo Fighters rock the entire site, there was so many perfect moments this year.


THE ACTS

I have to say my highlight of this year was seeing Beyonce perform and the amazing Coldplay follow her with a sensational set.

After performing earlier on Sunday at T4 in the park in London, Beyonce flew to Punchestown, Co. Kildare by Helicopter yesterday and wowed crowds with her sexy dancing and phenomenal voice.



Black Eyed Peas Headlined On Friday

Although she only played for one hour and she played the exact same set list as Glastonbury (even saying the same quotes) she was still amazing to see, and had a great interaction with the audience.

Wearing a sexy see-through piece and her signature Afro curls, Beyonce began the show with 'Crazy In Love'. As well as playing a mix of the Destiny's Child hits, the singer also performed her new tune 'Girls (Who Run The World)'.

The wife of Jay-Z was great with the crowds and even went into the front row of the audience. One lucky fan got his five minutes and she gave him the microphone and let him sing a line of 'Halo'. She also took a flower hair band from a devoted fan and told the audience; "Ireland is one of my favourite places in the world to perform, cause ya'll got so much party."



Beyonce rocked the stage in front of 60,000

Ending with 'Halo' the graceful singer descended under the stage holding a flower head piece made by a fan in the audience.

But I have to say the performance of the entire weekend was from Coldplay. At 10.25pm last night tens of thousands of festival goers rushed to the main stage to cheer on the English band.

Unlike Beyonce they strayed from their Glastonbury set and Chris Martin seemed way more comfortable speaking to the audience. The husband of Gwenyth Paltrow opened the show speaking Irish "Cead Mile Failte," he screamed down his microphone. "Conas ata tu, how are you all?" he added.

Mixing newer tunes with old classics like Yellow and 'God Put A Smile On Your Face' Coldplay sealed the deal for me this weekend. They have been dubbed one of the best live bands in the world and I can definitely second that.

With a fireworks display and the releasing of massive balloons the band clearly wanted to make their mark on one of Europe's biggest music festivals.



Amanda Brunker played the main stage on Saturday.


A gorgeous and extremely humble Chris thanked the audience for supporting the band. Saying "Beautiful Irish people out on a sunday."

Then after playing a sensational 'Everything's Not Lost' Chris was over the moon with the reaction from the crowds "All the shit we've been through as a band is worth it, when we hear 60,000 Irish people singing our song back to us."



Danny O'Donoghue of The Script jumped into the crowds on Friday night.


My personal favourite was their performance of 'Polotik' as that is my number one favourite song. The band also played an old classic 'Shiver' and Chris revealed that was the first song they ever played in Ireland, over 11 years ago.

Chris Martin completely bypassed my expectations and I would see them again in a heartbeat. Overall Oxegen 2011 was amazing.




OTHER ENTERTAINMENT

As well as the musical entertainment Oxegen did well this year to add new forms of fun. Firstly the 2,000 square foot Pennys Pop Up Shop was a massive hit, with queues going out the door all weekend.

As well as that the Captain Morgans tent was debuted this year. Every half hour male and female dancers danced to the cheering crowds in front of the Captain himself. I have to see the choreography was outstanding, and it was nice to get away for a while and chill with a Captain Morgans.



VIP AREA



Daniella, Louise and Roz in the VIP area.


I had a VIP Media pass so I spent some time in the VIP area. Celeb spotting was great in the private outdoor area. Irish stars such as Fade Street's Louise Johnston was spotted with Oxegen TV presenter Daniella Moyles and top model Roz Purcell.

Backstage celebs enjoyed playing fooseball, games of pool and played mini golf. VIP's also get a real bar (unlike the arena) where they could purchase any drink they wanted. And the most important thing about the VIP treatment is REAL toilets!

Also seen in the exclusive area as was model Caprice,  Xpose stars Glenda Gilson and Lisa Cannon. My highlight of the VIP area was meeting MTV presenter Laura Whitmore. The Bray blonde looked gorgeous in person and was really nice to chat too.



Gorgeous Laura interviewing The Script


Other celebs seen in the VIP section were Calvin Harris, Tinie Tempah, The Script and Example.



OVERALL


I honestly would say that this has been the best Oxegen festival yet.


For the first time in years there was no mud, puddles or constant rain. This year punters could relax in the sunshine, sit on the grass and listen to the great music the world is producing right now.


I cannot wait for Oxegen 2012!

Is Fade Street Coming Back? Cici Cavanagh Reveals All!

Is there any love for Fade Street?


Everyone has been dying to know if Fade Street will be back on our screens anytime soon, and now one if it's stars, Cici Cavanagh is finally putting the rumours to rest.

The stunning DJ and model has revealed that Fade Street is "unlikely" to return,  but she has claimed that the four stars of the series incuding Danielle Robinson, Louise Johnston and Vogue Williams, are set to make a new show on a different TV station!

Cici told me that she and the rest of the nation really want to find out if a second season is going ahead: "We are genuinely dying to know. but right now it doesn't look likely."






Cici is quickly becoming Dublin's newest fashionista!


The funky blonde explained that despite massive ratings, RTE aren't willing to give the show another chance. That sounds insane right? Well Cici doesn't understand it either:


"At the end of the day it's not down to the people. It is the most watched show on RTE Player in history. They've even re-released it and put it back on the RTE Player for the summer. To think that RTE would put it back on because it is so popular, but not give us a second series is completely bizarre." 

"There's possibly people in RTE, who are in charge of commissioning the shows, who didn't like it. When it comes down to it that really is the issue."


But don't worry all you Fade Street addicts out there, Cici (20) says that all the girls are set to make a new show. Their production company, Straywave Media, which also produces the amazing Celebrity Salon, are fighting to keep the four young girls together.






Cici says the girls WILL be back, but with a new show!


The Palmerstown native says all four girls will be back on Irish television again, but not on RTE:


"There's a possibility that Fade Street itself will never come back but I definitely believe that all of us will be back doing something similar together. Maybe the concept of Fade Street won't come back but I'm nearly 100% sure that we'll all be involved in something similar that will come out in the future. It definitely wouldn't be with another production company. More so, it might be another TV station other than RTE."


But this new reality series may not be that similar to the previous series. The tiny-waisted model admitted that this time round she and the girls would like their show to focus on parts of their lives that weren't fully explored during Fade Street.

While RTE were more concerned with showing the ins and outs of their personal lives, Cici says they would like something different with their new show:


"I would want them to focus in on the parts of our lives that we actually wanted to show. All four of us are such busy, proactive people that when Fade Street was filming they were only focusing on one or two aspects of our lives."



Cici is currently Djing with The Beauty Spot


Meanwhile the blonde, who is currently on tour Djing with The Beauty Spot, claimed that she, Louise, Vogue and Dani would never agree to do a show similar to 'Geordie Shore'. The hit UK replica of MTV's 'Jersey Shore' is a massive success and shows young people getting drunk, having affairs and fighting in public.

When asked if maybe Fade Street viewers wanted to see that side to the girls, Cici said that will never happen:


"Maybe people were let down that we weren't as debolturous on the show, but none of us are prepared to behave in a certain way. If that came up we wouldn't do it, we don't want to make complete shows of ourselves."
