Sparkle Superstar

Thought I would blog today, the whole Michael Jackson memoriam and coverage has been rather depressing of late, I am glad it is almost all over, i've cried quite a few tears over it all, and hopefully now his family can get some closure and time to grieve without the media furor, although I very much doubt it will die down for sometime.

Anyhow I have had a great weekend, I went to see the Queen of Pop Madonna at the O2 on saturday, she did a touching tribute to MJ which of course made me cry, how could you not be touched by this? Add to the fact she is the same age, same musical era, and they have met each other many times, it just added to the poinency of it all. She didn't sing (can you imagine how she would be ridiculed for that?) but instead a dancer came on dressed as MJ and did some moves, while M and dancers looked on. It was short and sweet but moving, and images of MJ on the screens only added to it. Add to the fact he was due to play here next week and its even more heartbreaking. RIP MJ.

I also saw the amazing Take That at wembley stadium on the sunday which was AMAZING. I lvoed M's show but Take That suppassed it by miles, it was breathtaking! The Circus theme worked so well and visually there was so much to see, i didnt want the show to end! Loved it, and cant wait for the dvd.

This weekend its my sisters 35th, which i cant believe as she still looks 28 to me! Hard to believe she has had a baby, Mia bless her will be 2 in august!
Anyhow it will be a nice family weekend, going out for lunch and having a few drinks of bubbly i hope!

Tomorrow i am out for dinner with some of the girls from Jo Batemans hen do, and some who couldnt make it which will be lovely. A pre dinner meal before Jos big day on saturday 18th July. I hope the weather is kind to her and Martin, i have a feeling its mixed weather for next week, but hopefully not.

Right, i'd better get back to work, off to town at 5 and to have a mosey around the shops!
