Girls Aloud began their Ten Tour (plus, Nicola is racist)




They all have sensational figures and Girls Aloud decided to show off their shapes as they took to the stage on the first night of their reunion tour on Thursday.

After putting on an energetic spectacle full of dancing, bright lights and risque outfits, the girls closed the show in elegant red frocks.

After being brought back to the stage for an encore Nicola Roberts, Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, Kimberley Walsh and Cheryl Cole closed the concert in Newcastle in their classiest ensemble.

The band, who found fame on Popstars: The Rivals a decade ago performed their old hits as well as some new material recorded for their anniversary.

Something New, Jump and The Show were all on the set list and the girls finished off the performance with a rendition of The Promise.

The girls received a positive response from both their fans and critics.

Streetnortheast.com wrote: 'Opening the show with Sound of the Underground strapped to a huge, sparkling Girls Aloud sign which was hanging from the rafters, these lovely ladies gave us die-hard fans a night to remember.

'Nicola was the surprise of the evening, often over looked and known as the ‘ugly one’ she was simply stunning and vocally at the top of her game.'

Chronicle Live said: 'Cheryl, Kimberley, Nicola, Sarah and Nadine took us through nearly two hours of non-stop hits with a catalogue of songs proving why they have been such great ambassadors of British pop.'

Despite the amazing performance it was Cheryl who stole the show once again thanks to her amazing outfits and brand new tattoo.

The local girl used the concert to public display her new artwork for the first time as she had her old lower back tattoo covered up with a couple of huge roses.

do you think the costume designer put her in it or she chose her costume?
sweet_honesty 23rd-Feb-2013 02:49 am (UTC)
She was probably just given it. These musicians typically don't pick out what they wear, especially a group like them. I'm waiting to hear her response, though. If she defends it, I'm going to be pretty disappointed.
nikuru 22nd-Feb-2013 10:34 pm (UTC)
yep.
simr2277 22nd-Feb-2013 10:34 pm (UTC)
Tbh it doesn't make her racist. Ignorant as fuck, maybe but not racist.

simr2277 22nd-Feb-2013 11:00 pm (UTC)
I didn't say they were. I'm just saying the fact she wore that doesn't maker her racist.
billsolomon 22nd-Feb-2013 11:01 pm (UTC)
lol i highly doubt you're native american, so you have no say on whether it's racist or not. stop embarrassing yourself.

I wish someone said this in every ONTD post about people doing silly but appropriative things without intending to hurt people.
sweet_honesty 23rd-Feb-2013 02:45 am (UTC)
It make whoever designed their costumes racist, tbh. She is probably just ignorant and will issue an apology within the next few days.

These stupid stylists for these musicians though. First Lana, now Nicole? Ugh
simprov 22nd-Feb-2013 10:35 pm (UTC)
welp
idk if its because i was just not as aware of things when i was younger or what but i feel like this obsession w/ headdresses is the biggest its ever been
d00ditsemily 22nd-Feb-2013 10:35 pm (UTC)
How could someone approve that? Do they not pay attention to other people's back lash?
givemethepeasx 22nd-Feb-2013 10:40 pm (UTC)
i doubt anyone noticed that backlash in the uk
d00ditsemily 22nd-Feb-2013 10:48 pm (UTC)
idk, the VS one was pretty big
scaredsquee 23rd-Feb-2013 01:55 am (UTC)
even for the band no doubt and that terrible video?
maebytonight 22nd-Feb-2013 10:42 pm (UTC)
Is the general public aware of recent cultural appropriation backlash though? Because I can see them thinking no one will care if they aren't paying attention to online discussions.
sweet_honesty 23rd-Feb-2013 02:46 am (UTC)
It's the UK, so I doubt anyone will backlash (but they should)
mydogfred 22nd-Feb-2013 10:37 pm (UTC)
sigh

i think if it jutted out more, the way Gaga's outfit does, it would be more flattering

theirs just looks weird imo
colorzplosion 22nd-Feb-2013 10:55 pm (UTC)

toshi_hakari 22nd-Feb-2013 10:45 pm (UTC)
Have you listened to their music? Just curious, because you should give it a try before judging ;)
heygrumpy 22nd-Feb-2013 11:11 pm (UTC)

andres01234 22nd-Feb-2013 10:46 pm (UTC)

I was disappointed when I saw that Nicola photo on tumblr.
But otherwise they look fabulous and I wish I was seeing them
nikuru 22nd-Feb-2013 10:47 pm (UTC)
Did she do a racist dance/make racist noises or is she just wearing a headdress?
indigo_sparkles 23rd-Feb-2013 12:43 am (UTC)
she just wore a headdress
scaredsquee 23rd-Feb-2013 01:56 am (UTC)
protip: wearing the headdress when you're a white woman is racist.
cageyb 22nd-Feb-2013 10:48 pm (UTC)
First "ghetto baby" and now this. Nicola I was rooting for you!

Though it was likely an idea pitched by whoever their creative director is and they all agreed to it, so it's more like Girls Aloud, I was sorta rooting for 2/5ths of you!

Cheryl remains the worst
