LIVERPOOL actress Jennifer Ellison was today tipped as a “strong contender” for the new series of Dancing On Ice.
The former Brookside star is training for the ITV1 hit show, which starts in January.
She will be joined by fellow Merseysider Heidi Range, who found fame as one third of Sugababes.
The Aintree-born singer maintained her ever-glamorous appearance as she arrived at the Slough ice rink in sky-high heels.

Jorgie Porter, who plays Theresa in Liverpool-made soap Hollyoaks, is also among the famous faces taking part.
The celebrities are already going through their paces with professionals Jane Torvill and Christopher Dean.
Jennifer looked nervous as she took her first shaky steps on the ice earlier this week.
A source told the ECHO: “Jen was approached about it a few years ago but she felt this was the right time.
“She always gives 110%. She is one of the best-known stars in this series of Dancing On Ice and she could be a serious contender.”
Jennifer was crowned champion celebrity chef in ITV1’s Hell’s Kitchen in 2004.
Others getting ready to battle on the ice include fashion designer Sadie Frost, British number one ski racer Chemmy Alcott, EastEnders actress Laila Morse and fitness guru Rosemary Conley.
The male celebrities include Emmerdale actor Matthew Wolfenden, Corrie’s Andy Whyment, former England goalkeeper Ian Walker – the son of ex-Everton FC boss Mike – and ex-Blue Peter presenter Andy Akinwolere.

Sugababes original lineup to reform?

The original lineup of the Sugababes are set to reform, a report has suggested.

The founding members of the girl group - Keisha Buchanan, Mutya Buena and Siobhan Donaghy - are said to be working on new material before they make the reunion official.

According to Wot You Got the original trio "haven't signed anything official yet, but they have been demoing some new songs to see if they can re-capture that magic of their debut album".

The site added: "If they get that right, then they'll sign on the dotted lines."

Buchanan played her first solo gig earlier this year, showcasing some of her new material at an event in London.

However, no official release date or record deal has been announced for the star since she left the group back in September 2009.

Current member Jade Ewen recently revealed that it was "nice" to talk to Buchanan after filling her spot in the pop band two years ago.

Meanwhile, Buena recently won the rights to use the Sugababes name on Class 16 goods, which includes stationery, gift wrap and gift wrap ribbons.

Watch the original Sugababes perform their debut hit 'Overload' live below:

 

 

Could the original Sugababes be getting back together?

This excites us A LOT. Reports have been flying around that the original line up for the band, Sugababes, are in talks to reunite and hit the world with a barrel load of pop hits. Eeeeeek!
According to Wot You Got Keisha, Mutya and Siobhan, "haven't signed anything official yet, but they have been demoing some new songs to see if they can re-capture that magic of their debut album".
O. M. Geeeeeee!
Only recently Mutya Bueno won the rights to use the band’s name on things like stationary and gift-wrap. You know, should she ever wish to branch out into the world of gift-wrap and pencils. As you do. Mutya, if you ever make a liquid-filled Sugababes pencil case, we will totes buy one.
Siobhan and Mutya were just 13 when they formed the band in 1998. After recruiting Mutya’s mate Keisha, the trio set about creating their amazing debut Overload. Which we LOVED. Who didn’t?
In 2001 during a tour around Japan, Siobhan decided to end her Sugababes dream and left the band. She was replaced by current member Heidi Range.
Mutya was next to scarper, in 2005, leaving Keisha and Heidi to pick Amelle Barrabah as her replacement.
It wasn’t until 2009 that Keisha, the final original member of the band, left the band. Her departure was surrounded by controversy because, according to Keisha’s twitter comments, it wasn’t her decision to quit. Ouch.
And now it would seem the trio have come full-circle and will potentially be getting back together again. We wonder what Siobhan, Keisha and Mutya will call their new group? Sugaladies perhaps?

X Factor: Amelle Berrabah loves Rhythmix and Misha B but NOT Frankie Cocozza

October 17th, 2011 by Lisa McGarry.

Amelle Berrabah has admitted that she thinks the right two acts were in the bottom two on last night’s X Factor.
The Sugababes singer appeared on tonight’s Xtra Factor and revealed that she didn’t enjoy either Nu Vibe or Frankie Cocozza’s performance on the main show and thought they both ‘deserved’ to be in danger of elimination.
Amelle said:
“I don’t think they were at their best tonight, that’s for sure. Frankie he struggled a little bit and I think people saw it. I think they both deserved to be in the bottom two.”
However Berrabah did enjoy some of the show and explained that she was wowed by Rhythmix’s performance last night. She added:

I’ve become a really big fan of Rhythmix, they’re wicked! I think they’re so good. To be honest, last week I wasn’t that impressed but last night they shut me up. They’ve got a fan for life now, they’re wicked. I think they’re fresh, they can sing and they’ve got some great swagger about them. I think a lot of people will be able to relate to them as well, they’re nice girls.

The brunette beauty was also impressed by Sami Brookes and Misha B and continued:

Sami she’s got some big voice, but Misha is wicked as well, she is so talented.

Who did you enjoy listening to on The X Factor last weekend and do you think Frankie and Nu Vibe deserved to be at the bottom? Leave your comments below.

Getting their skates on! Jennifer Ellison, Heidi Range and Sadie Frost hit the rink ahead of next year's Dancing On Ice

By Sarah Bull

There is always speculation about who is going to be trying their luck on the rink on ITV talent show Dancing On Ice.

And next year the line-up looks better than ever, with stars including Jennifer Ellison, Heidi Range and Sadie Frost among the famous faces taking part.

The celebrities were spotted trying to go unnoticed as they arrived at the ice rink in Slough, keeping their heads down as they made their way inside to start training with professionals Jane Torvill and Christopher Dean.

Get your skates on! Jennifer Ellison is one of the celebrities set to take part in next year's Dancing On Ice

Ready for action: Sugababes singer Heidi Range and fashion designer Sadie Frost were seen arriving for practice

Jennifer, dressed in an all-black tracksuit, grey legwarmers and matching black headband, looked very nervous as she made her way on to the ice, holding on tightly to Dean's hands as he gently guided her around the rink.

The 28-year-old actress will be joined by fellow stars including Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter, British number one ski racer Chemmy Alcott and EastEnders actress Laila Morse.

Laila, who plays Mo Harris in the BBC soap, appeared to be slightly more confident than Jennifer on the ice, but had to keep her arms out at her sides to help maintain her balance.

Careful! EastEnders actress Laila Morse, who plays Mo Harris, uses her arms to balance herself on the ice

At an advantage? Rosemary Conley is a keen ice skater, while alpine skier Chemmy Alcott is used to the freezing cold conditions

Fashion designer Sadie appeared to have put her love of clothes before staying warm on the rink as she arrived for practice wearing a tiny black dress and tights, while Sugababes singer Heidi maintained her ever-glamorous appearance in sky-high red heels.

The female side of the celebrities competing on this year's show is completed by fitness guru Rosemary Conley.

The 64-year-old star was seen arriving at the rink ready for action in a pair of black jogging bottoms, turquoise top and pink jacket.

Here come the boys: Former Spurs goalkeeper Ian Walker, ex Blue Peter presenter Andy Akinwolere and Emmerdale star Matthew Wolfenden arrive at the rink in Slough, Berkshire

Gently does it: Coronation Street actor Andy Whyment gets some help on the ice from Jane Torvill and Christopher Dean

And Rosemary is no stranger to ice skating, crediting the sport recently for helping keep her in shape.

She explained: 'I didn't step on to the ice until just before my 60th birthday, but as a child I used to slide around our polished floor in my socks.

'It's quite funny really because I never actually got on to the ice until I was a pensioner. I love it, but I'm not very good!'

Ready to begin: Torvill and Dean look ready for action as they begin the rehearsals with this year's stars

Spotted: After wearing a Halloween mask, Wolfenden let his disguise slip as he headed home in his car

WHO ARE THIS YEAR'S DANCING ON ICE CONTESTANTS?

Jennifer Ellison, 28 - Former Brookside actress who has been dancing since the age of three
Laila Morse, 66 - EastEnders star who plays Mo Harris in the BBC soap
Sadie Frost, 46 - Fashion designer and former dancer, she appeared in a music video aged 16
Jorgie Porter, 23 - Famous for playing Theresa McQueen in Channel 4 soap Hollyoaks
Chemmy Alcott, 29 - Used to cold conditions, Chemmy is Britain's number one alpine skier
Rosemary Conley, 64 - Fitness guru has previously credited ice skating for helping her stay in shape
Matthew Wolfenden, 31 - Best known for playing David Metcalfe in ITV soap Emmerdale
Andy Whyment, 30 - Another soap star, who plays Kirk Sutherland in Coronation Street
Andy Akinwolere, 28 - Former Blue Peter presenter who has swam across the Palau Trench
Ian Walker, 39 - Ex Tottenham Hotspurs goalkeeper - but will he be any good on the ice?

But it looks like Rosemary and the rest of the female competitors are going to have some stiff competition from the men.
Leading the stars competing is Emmerdale actor Matthew Wolfenden, who plays David Metcalfe in the ITV soap.
Wolfenden did his best to remain unrecognisable as he arrived for his first rehearsal, hiding behind a ghoulish Halloween mask as he arrived at the rink.
But the 31-year-old actor let his disguise slip as he got back in his car to head home after the touch practice.
A source told the Sunday People: 'The contestants were all trying not to be seen.
'Emmerdale's Matthew wore a Halloween mask. They were really focused on their rehearsals.'
Fellow soap star Andy Whyment, who plays Coronation Street's Kirk Sutherland, will be competing against Wolfenden in the show, and appeared to be making good progress as he got some tips on how to balance on the ice from Dean.
The other male celebrities taking part include former Tottenham Hotspurs goalkeeper Ian Walker and ex Blue Peter Presenter Andy Akinwolere, who seemed to be in good spirits as he made his way inside.
It remains to be seen which other famous faces will be taking part in the competition, as last year's Dancing On Ice began with 16 celebrity contestants, before cutting them down to 12 in a brutal first show.
Dancing On Ice is set to begin on ITV1 next January.

First look at new Dancing on Ice contestants practising in secret

HERE is your first peek ­inside the rink of secrecy as the new Dancing on Ice hopefuls take shakily to their skates.
Coached by Torvill and Dean, the celebrity contestants have been ­training hard behind closed doors.
The People can reveal the ­stars battling to become ice kings and queens come from pop, sport, ­acting, slimming, clothes design ­and children’s TV presenting.
At first the roll call reads like a battle of the soaps.
Coronation Street is represented by ANDY WHYMENT, 30, who plays Kirk Sutherland. He is pictured deep in concentration as he ­practises, hanging on to legend Christopher Dean’s every word. From EastEnders there is tough mum Mo Harris – actress LAILA MORSE, 66. She has to hold her arms out wide as if flying in an effort to keep from falling over.

Emmerdale’s David Metcalfe, alias MATTHEW WOLFENDEN, 31, arrived in a Hallowe’en mask but let it slip later. Former Brookside actress JENNIFER ELLISON, 28, must be a ­favourite as she has ­studied dance from the age of three – and starred as Roxie in Chicago on the London stage. She also looked intent as Christopher, 53, put her through her paces.
Hollyoaks’ sexy JORGIE PORTER, 23, who stars as Theresa McQueen, ­is also set to be competing.
Sugababes singer HEIDI RANGE, 28, must be a good bet after lots of practice dancing in videos and on stage. SADIE FROST, 46, has her own fashion label FrostFrench. A close pal of Kate Moss and ex-wife of Jude Law, Sadie also danced in a music video aged 16.

One-time Spurs goalie IAN WALKER, 39, will be out to prove footballers can be just as nifty on ice as on turf. But fellow sports star CHEMMY ALCOTT, 29, should feel more at home as she is Britain’s No1 alpine ski racer.
Slimming and exercise guru ROSEMARY CONLEY, 64, should at least be in good shape when the ITV1 series begins in January.
While former Blue Peter presenter ANDY AKINWOLERE, 28, has never had skating training but has proved he can rise to great feats.
In June he became the first ­person to swim the five miles across the Palau Trench in the Pacific Ocean.
A source at the Slough, Berks, rink on Friday said: “The ­contestants were trying not to be seen. Emmerdale’s Matthew wore a Hallowe’en mask. They were really focused on their rehearsals.”
