Santa’s Little Sugababes

IMAGINE waking up on Christmas morning to find the Sugababes at the end of your bed. It would certainly bring a whole new meaning to the term 'stocking fillers'. Pop divas Keisha, Amelle and Heidi were playing Santa's Little Helpers today for the launch of Great Ormond Street Hospital's Christmas Appeal. The children's charity needs to raise an incredible £50 million this year to fund refurbishment, lifesaving equipment and pioneering research. Over two thirds of the hospital needs to be redeveloped to ensure Great Ormond Street Hospital remains a world-class centre of excellence in paediatric treatment, training and research.

A charity spokeswoman said: "We really rely on fundraising activities, events and celebrities to help us reach our target. We are doing a big push for Christmas this year as we really want to make the hospital more comforting and welcoming for our children."

The sensational singing trio is urging the Great British public to logon and check out Great Ormond Street's fabulous range of stocking fillers and cards.

The Sugababes said: "We're really excited to be launching the Stocking Filler Appeal for Great Ormond Street Hospital Children's Charity. "We want all the children at the hospital to get better and get home as quickly as possible and so we're urging everyone to help raise as much money as they can this Christmas."

You can also fundraise or make a donation. Just £20 would cover the cost of four neonatal masks, small enough to fit a premature baby's face.

Hard-Fi Star Loves Sugababes Cover Version

HARD-FI singer Richard Archer has become a Sugababes fan after the girls recorded his track Living For The Weekend for Radio 1’s Live Lounge compilation. He admitted he was very impressed with the cover of the hit single by Keisha Buchanan, Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah.

“I am definitely a fan now,” said Richard. “I like pop music if it’s good, and they’ve made some good tunes.”

In fact, Richard is a fan of cover versions. He said: “Back in the Sixties, you would have two or three different versions of the same song in the charts, so why not? I like the idea of trying things in different ways. We have covered The Stranglers and The White Stripes. It’s good to put your own twist on things.”
