Hollie Steel

Here are some more photos of Hollie Steel in Hong Kong, performing on the JSG Top 10 Awards Show.

My source (Vicky) tells me: “Hollie sings Edelweiss on the show It was brilliant!!”

Vicky has kindly sent me some photos of Hollie Steel in Hong Kong yesterday.

The first  three photos are from The Worship Ceremony Of the JSG Top 10 Awards Show. The worship ceremony is a traditional ceremony that takes place to ensure that the show itself is successful.

The final four photos are from the rehearsal of the show.

Hollie Steel met Olivia in Hong Kong. Any of you who are regular visitors here or on Hollie’s Facebook page will know that Olivia is a huge fan of Hollie’s, so she was absolutely delighted to finally meet Hollie.

Olivia said on Facebook: “I got to see Hollie today and it was brill! We chatted a lot and Hollie gave her single to me which still isn’t available in Hong Kong!”

Olivia has also sent me a link to see Hollie in Hong Kong: http://mytv.tvb.com/variety/scoop/103914/1189#page-1

However,  the link only works if you are in Hong Kong , or if you access the video via a proxy server based in Hong Kong.

I have tried to use a free proxy server to view the video, but none of the ones I tried were working.

Hollie Steel will be performing in Hong Kong on January 16th. Vicky has kindly emailed me a link to a video of Hollie wishing a Happy New Year to all her fans in Hong Kong, and also a page from a magazine promoting Hollie’s appearance at the Jade Solid Gold (JSG) Top 10 Awards Show, which is one of the main Hong Kong pop music award shows.

Vicky has also told me that she is going to meet Hollie and Nina and she will be providing us with more news from Hollie’s latest trip to Hong Kong soon! Thanks Vicky!

PS. I believe you need the latest version of the Quicktime plug-in to play the video.

Hollie Steel and Nina were interviewed at the Preston switch on by ARRY ARRY BOY TV and there is also a short clip of Hollie singing “Where are you Christmas?”. Check it out here:

Olivia has just informed us that one of Hollie Steel’s performances in Hong Kong has been broadcast on the TV there. Fantastic!

It’s about time we had more of Hollie on our screens here in the UK …

Here is a lovely video of Hollie singing Nessun Dorma and Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again in Hong Kong just a few hours ago. Thanks to Yau for posting it on Youtube, and to Wouter for letting me know about it. I know that Jason, Hollie’s dad, will really enjoy seeing it.

This video is also available in the gallery.

As most of you know, Hollie Steel is currently in Hong Kong. Her mum Nina said on Facebook:

Hi, Hollie is having a lovely time in Hong Kong. Last night she perfomed wonderfully at the Tvb television studios. Looking forward to next week when pre orders (for the cd) should be available. The picture on the front of the Cd is lovely.

Hollie’s visit to Hong Kong has also been reported in the Hong Kong newspaper, The Hong Kong Standard, who interviewed Hollie.

Hollie spoke about meeting Susan Boyle, saying: “She  is very nice, and we write letters to each other.”

The locals in Hong Kong have gone crazy for Hollie, and she had to sign loads of autographs when she visited Ocean Park, a marine based theme park in south Hong Kong.

Nina spoke to the paper about Hollie’s path to stardom: “I believe Hollie is just as good as Charlotte Church” she said. “But I’m very strict. She will never have a chance to get into drug or drinking problems.”

Despite Hollie taking a few days off each month for performances, she is still up to date with her school work.

The article in the paper also revealed that Hollie’s album will contain the track “When She Loved Me” from Toy Story 2.

Hollie says she would like to be both a pop and an opera singer. She said: “When I turn 16, I will audition for The X Factor.”

Hollie made her Hong Kong singing debut at Lok Fu Shopping Centre this afternoon.
