Same! Are they not then?I thought they were super popular in Germany as this comeback seemed successful for their social media posts... I was even thinking if they were set to work on new music again.
I loved Monrose to bits and was a mega-fan. But watching their season of popstars was the biggest cringe fest ever. None of the gals could sing except for one who didn’t make it into the band in the end. Of course with some vocal lessons and good vocal production made their music sound palatable, but great vocalists… … never saw it.Senna…powerful vocals…
Just been to Mandy’s book presentation. It’s all about self love and all and she recommends to just do the jobs you really want to do and also take time for yourself in the morning, she for example does whatever she wants for one and a half hour. It was a steaming pile of shit; extremely deluded.I loved Monrose to bits and was a mega-fan. But watching their season of popstars was the biggest cringe fest ever.

But back on topic I think No Angels could forever headline 2000s festivals and have a great income.

Dunno why but this one felt so awkward… and uncomfortable
You are technically right with the exception of their Berlin show last summer. That was a massive home run and not a single bad word was said about it I think.I just think other countries don't do pop nostalgia as well as UK/US do sometimes not even the US. Like, the concept of a grown adult of 35 or 40 going out to see the band they liked at 12 years old isn't a thing as much for French or Greek or maybe German people (going by my friends). There's a 'liked these songs as a kid and that's it' thing going on instead. When I saw Anastacia last year so many greek people messaged me with 'she's still going, loved her as a kid'. There's also an air of desperation or cringe to seeing bands that were hot decades ago - which I hate! The greek Popstars band for example tried to reunite and the best they could get was one night PA at a gay club in Athens. I think other similar campaigns (like Oz, italian or french girlbands off Popstars also didn't happen for various reasons but also lack of demand, it's usually 2-3 members at a gay club or Pride event).
Whereas in the UK its pretty normal to go see your teenage faves on tour decades later, buy their music again and go to festivals and see them again. There's a reason the Spice shows remained UK only despite being stadiums and hugely successful in the UK.

It was a glorious return, even if it fizzled out again. They could do any pop/00s festival.
The Berlin show was magical.
Well, talk about reciting things out of context. Mandy has severe anxiety issues, which her book is based around. She talks about mismanagement and mistreatment by label executives, wrong business people around her, micromanaging her every move by herself etc. There was even a moment where she thought she would just collapse on stage on live TV and never get up again because her anxiety became so severe. It all nearly took away her passion for music and performing. Good for her that she’s talking about these issues and if she says she only does jobs now she feels 100% content about and takes time for herself in the morning (for as long as she wants) even better!Just been to Mandy’s book presentation.

Sorry for double posting. Honestly I don’t doubt her in any way. But someone should tell her to at least give a little disclaimer when being asked about how to handle and avoid sickening stress, to mention you realize that it is impossible to follow for most people in the audience.Well, talk about reciting things out of context.

The UK just gets it right. Look at PCD, they were huge in the UK and the US / Oz but while the former got a full blown UK tour that sold amazingly the US comeback only stayed a 'rumor' and the aussie dates didn't sell well.
