Duffy's red Miu Miu shoes up for Charity Auction!

Duffy's shoes are currently being auction for charity - 100% of the final auction price will go to the Group B Strep Support charity. Click here to see the item on ebay and go and bid bid bid for this good cause. Details about the charity:
Group B Strep Support
About this charity:
Group B streptococcus (GBS) is the UK's most common life-threatening infection in newborn babies. Without preventative medicine, GBS infects approximately 700 babies annually - 75 die and 40 survivors suffer long-term problems. Yet most GBS infections are preventable by offering higher-risk women antibiotics in labour. GBSS needs funds to inform pregnant women and their health professionals how to do this ... and save tiny lives.

A couple of articles...

There is this nice article about Duffy on Variety.com (thanks for the heads up!)

And also there is this silly article about Duffy in the Daily Star (that oh-so-relaible source of information). Thanks to Succo's early morning email I have known about this all day and was thinking whether to post it or not. So all I'm doing is posting the link for you to check out if you really want to. But don't believe a word of it. Duffy would have to be drunk, stupid or having a laugh to behave that way and tell her story to a not-so-innocent cab driver, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Here is the German interview that succo found

IS DUFFY DATING WELSH RUGBY STAR MIKE PHILLIPS?!

The Sun think so and since they published it has spread over the internet news websites like wild fire. Here's the link.

I'm not putting their story on the blog because A. it may not be true anyway and B. If it is true they are strongly implying it is a relationship of convenience on his part which isn't very nice. I wouldn't want anyone saying that about my bloke anyway.

I will put their photo up though so that we can at least see who they are talking about. :-)

Duffy wanted to sing at Lineker's wedding?

The Sun reckons anyway. Here's the link.

And as for Easyjet I reckon Duffy will be OK because she is short and small. LOL

Lulu Does Mercy on UK TV

Tom Meadows Interview

A very full and meaty article about Tom Meadows' experiences (including, later on in the article, all about being Duffy's drummer).

Thanks for the link in the shoutbox! Keep 'em coming people! :-)


My fave quote:
For me, the pinnacle of the weirdness was doing a gig at the Bodega bar in Nottingham, Duffy had been No. 1 for about 3 weeks with both album and single and she was on a bus, parked outside the venue doing her makeup by candlelight because there was no electricity to power the bus and we were in a toilet downstairs which was our dressing room, I had to move the cymbal out of the way in order to get to my kit.

Hello, I'm back!

OK so I still feel a bit bad but I've had enough chicken soup to last a life time so I was back at work this week and also I'll be back updating the Duffy blog...

The Hurricane festival was aired on German TV last night and Succo has kindly recorded it! I managed to convert it to mpeg, cut them up and am putting them on youtube.

They aired Rain on Your Parade, Warwick Avenue and Cry to Me. Audio available here.

Rain On Your Parade is below:
