New Teen Mom UK

Sorry the 2nd post is later this week, got a bit behind with things. :)

Teen Mom UK is back for another series! The British version of the popular Teen Mom franchise (itself a spin-off of the MTV reality show 16 and Pregnant) starts in early April and there have been some changes to the cast.

Series 7 sees the introduction of new mum Emma and the exits of Sassi Simmonds and Shannon Wise. They've both decided to take a break. Sassi, 21, says she's just concentrating on her family for now (daughter Zen'aya, 3 and on/off boyfriend and Ze'anya's dad Darren Quirk) and Shannon's reason is that after giving birth to her and boyfriend Charlie's second son Frankie last July, (little brother to 3 year old Theodore), she didn't feel ready to go back to filming and wants to just concentrate on being a mum. Shannon also shared that she and Charlie are no longer together and are co-parenting.

If you have Facebook you can view a video of Sassi and Shannon explaining why they're taking a break: https://www.facebook.com/1666529830259187/videos/143639456975357

Emma Finch

Emma, 17, from Birmingham, has 5 month old son Jeremiah. She hasn't had an easy time in recent years, having been excluded from school and diagnosed with autism. Her mum is supportive though, which is a big help. We'll learn more about Emma, Jeremiah and his father  Nassesh (a singer from Liverpool) on the show.  If you have FB you can watch Emma's introduction video here: https://www.facebook.com/1666529830259187/videos/541893663125050

In other TM UK news, we will see Amber Butler give birth to her 2nd child Hudson (a brother for her 5 year old son Brooklyn with on/off boyfriend Ste Rankine) and Megan Salmon-Ferrari has a new boyfriend! Megan has been through a lot with her ex Dylan Siggers (dad of kids Mackenzie, now 4 and Dulcie-Mae, nearly 3) in the past, so it will be good to see her moving on and happier. And although Amber and Ste are currently separated, I hope that they are able to get on well and co-parent to the best of their ability. :)

There is also the shock news that Jordan Edwards has cheated on Chloe Patton, with whom he shares Marley. :( I was shocked to see that in the trailer.

There aren't any trailers I can link to from YouTube but here is the Facebook one: https://www.facebook.com/1666529830259187/videos/234166534428063

I'll update if there's another trailer for S7 soon, but for now here's a video of Amber and Shannon comparing their pregnancy experiences:



Update 23/3/20: New video where the girls discuss what's coming up in S7 has just been uploaded!



 Series 7 of TM: UK starts on Wednesday 1st April at 8pm on MTV UK.

Are you looking forward to the new series? I'd normally do a post nearer the time it was due to start, but I have a Mariah Carey 50th birthday post planned for next week, so did it early!

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences.  The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the

Debut XG Mini Album

Japanese girl group XG have released their 1st mini album. It's called NEW DNA and was released on 27th September. XG (whose name is short for Xtraordinary Girls) made their debut in March last year and have brought out 7 singles so far- Tippy Toes, MASCARA, LEFT RIGHT/SHOOTING STAR double single), GVRL GANG , TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. The first 3 songs (or 4 including the double single) aren't on the mini album. The concept behind NEW DNA is that of being a "new species" free from conventions and limitations .  Although the group is Japanese, their creation was inspired by Korean music and they are based in South Korea. They have released songs in English so far and have been described as a global group and "X-pop". NEW DNA consists of 6 tracks- HESONO, X-GENE, GVRL GANG, TGIF, NEW DANCE and PUPPET SHOW. It is an R'n'B/pop mini album with influences from other genres, such as K-pop, dance and hip hop. My favourite song is PUPPET SHOW. I al
