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

Update 1/4/20: Check out Nassesh's official YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1ZtO-0s0pxYzLxsHWvHRFw


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!

South Indian Videos

I've written several Bollywood posts this year but I don't feature South Indian music/films as much. So today I'm sharing some music and dance videos from Tollywood ( the Telugu language film industry) and Kollywood (the Tamil language film industry). :) Oo Antava Mawa- Pushpa- Dance Cover by Sonali First up is a dance cover of the song Oo Antava Mawa..Oo Oo Antava from the 2021 Tollywood film Pushpa: The Rise- Part 1 . I previously featured a dance cover of Oo Antava Mawa in a Dance Videos post in August last year. That one is by Rang De and you can see it here: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/08/dance-videos.html This cover is by Indian choreographer Sonali Bhaduria, from LiveToDance with Sonali and was uploaded in January 2022. It's a shorter video.   For more on Pushpa and to watch the official Oo Antava Mawa video, check out my Tollywood Videos Round-up 2 post from September 2023: https://starsparklex.blogspot.com/2023/09/tollywood-videos-round-up-2.html ...

Weekly Music Video

Sorry there wasn't a 2nd post last week, I was going through a bit of a stressful time and didn't manage to get one finished. :) This week's video is I CONDEMN by Australian singer and rapper The Kid LAROI . It was the first single from the deluxe version of his second album BEFORE I FORGET. The original album was released in January and the deluxe version came out on 24th April. It contains 9 extra tracks, including  I CONDEMN and latest single PIECES. I wasn't aware that there was a deluxe version until I saw that some new songs had appeared on Spotify! I like BEFORE I FORGET and my favourite songs from the original version are ME + YOU, JULY,  COME DOWN and RATHER BE featuring Australian rapper and singer Lithe . One of my fave songs on the deluxe version is QUIT YOU, and I also like HOLD STILL and I CONDEMN. The newest single PIECES came out on out the same day as the album. I CONDEMN was released on 17th April. As with the songs on the original BEFORE I FORGET, it...
