Star Sparkle's Birthday + Fave Posts

Sorry the post is later this week, had a bit of a busy weekend! :)

Star Sparkle  Blog is 7 years old this month! I haven't celebrated blog birthdays before, but I recently did a birthday post on my other blog Falling Petals, so thought it would be cool to do one here too. :)

I started Star Sparkle on 17th April 2011. I had the intention to make it an entertainment blog, mainly about music, but also about TV and film, and dance as well,  since I belly dance. Here's my first ever post: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2011/04/welcome-to-star-sparkle-blog.html

I didn't post as regularly back then due to computer problem, but it picked up later in the year. Note: If you want to look at old posts, then click on the 3 pink lines at the top right of the blog and then click "Archive". Or "Labels" if you want to see posts under the same category. :)


To celebrate Star Sparkle's birthday, here is a collection of the most popular/viewed posts over years, as well as my personal favourites.

Ok, so that's it! Hope you liked the post.  Blogging has helped me to express myself and my love of music in particular, and it also gave me the courage to start other blogs on different subjects. I went on to start the personal development blog Falling Petals and the seasonal blog The Seasonal Life. Thank you for reading Star Sparkle and I hope to do many more posts in future. :)

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 D

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo),
