Pete Waterman has just been Mel and Sue’s guest on RI:SE.

Things we have learned from his appearance:

» Pete would not have signed Tatu, but regrets not signing the Cheeky Girls.

» He owns a golden anorak.

» All his children have his eyes.

» Despite the protestations of his official website, he is no longer married to the nice lady out of Tight Fit.

» Rick Astley has indeed written the new One True Voice single. And the boys have now recorded around 14 tracks at PWL.

» Pete was offered every programme currently showing on TV in every country in the world, but turned them all down.

Follow my heart, right up to the end

Fantastic news! One True Voice are not splitting up. And it must be true, because Pete Waterman says so on his official website.

Q: Are ‘One True Voice’ splitting up?

A: No! We’ve no idea where these rumours came from, but the boys are currently working on material at PWL and gearing themselves up for a new single release. Look out for it early in the Spring.

But which spring, Pete, which spring? We clearly saw crocuses in bloom on the way home from work yesterday, but there were no One True Voice singles in Woolworths.

You might also be interested to know that, while Girls Aloud are wasting heaps of cash on hiring top writers and producers, One True Voice are taking a more frugal approach by going for the dream team of Pete, Pete’s son and Rick Astley, who have brought us such fantastic hits as Lauren Waterworth’s The Show and, erm, Sacred Trust.

2013 UPDATE: One True Voice split up.

It would take a strong, strong man to write a song for One True Voice

According to the official PWL website, none other than Rick Astley is working on tracks for One True Voice.

Let’s hope they capture the imagination a bit more than Lauren Waterworth’s line-dancing anthem, the Show.

2013 UPDATE: They did not.
