ON TRACK WITH TASH! Meet our reader of the month, Tash! She does Little Athletics, enjoys gymnastics and she’s a big Taylor Swift and 1D fan...

Hi Tash! Tell us all about your involvement with Little Athletics.

I started when I was seven, about two years ago. I like the running events.

The 70m is my favourite because it’s the shortest and I usually come first in my heats. I also like that the other girls in my age group are all very nice.

Do you have any other hobbies?

I like to do gymnastics – front walkovers are my favourite! I also enjoy acrodancing, which is like gymnastics but you do it to music, and my grandma has been teaching me to crochet.

If you could spend a day with anyone in the world, who would you pick and what would you do with them?

I’d love to bake cookies and cupcakes with Taylor Swift, and then afterwards we’d have a tea party!

Tash’s faves Animal: Rabbit Food: Macaroni and Cheese Colours: Aqua and Teal Band: 1D. Niall is my favourite member because he has a good voice!

INTERVIEW BY: ANGELA LEE

What do you like to do on weekends?

Sleep in! I also play with my brother and on the iPad. I only do Little Athletics during the season, but it doesn’t start back up until September.

At the moment I’m doing tutoring on the weekend.

WHAT'S YOUR STORY? Do you have a special talent or an interesting story?

We’d love to hear about it! Send a brief description of your story to littleangel@nextmedia.com.au with ‘Amazing Angel’ in the subject line. This month’s Amazing Angel has won a fantastic book prize!

EMBARRASSING

OMG! HIDE

H S U L B of the month! ...

LA LA !

H O UH

KARAOKE CONUMDRUM My most embarrassing moment was when my family was on holidays in Fiji. Everyone was down at the pool and I went up to our hotel room by myself. I locked the door and put my headphones on and I started to rock out by doing some singing and dancing. I was in the middle of a song when suddenly my mum and Nanna burst into the room with a BANG! They said they had been trying to get in for half an hour and everyone outside could hear me singing. I didn’t even know they were there. It was so embarrassing!

ALICE IN BLUNDERLAND My most embarrassing moment was when I was at my Alice In Wonderland party.

I was playing Limbo, the best party game ever, but I needed to go to the toilet. I decided to hold on and keep playing.

When it was my turn to go under the Limbo stick I was laughing so much that I peed my pants!

I was so, so, so embarrassed!

TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES At school, we had to make a slideshow for my history class When the day came for me to show mine, I took the wrong USB stick to school and accidentally brought up pictures of me when I was little in the bath!

I’m so thankful that day is over!

Allie

TWIN TROUBLE My most embarrassing moment was when I went to my Dad’s twin brother’s birthday party. When I was there, I went to hug my Dad but actually hugged my uncle by mistake. When I found out what I’d done, I ran away because I was so embarrassed.

Eleanor

IT JUST SLIPPED Once my class was having a very long Maths test. It was so quiet and I needed to fart so badly! ARGH! Suddenly, I let it slip out and everyone laughed and pointed at me. Even my teacher heard it and started laughing! The worst thing was it really stunk! It was definitely the most embarrassing thing ever!

Mia

ILLUSTRATIONS: ABBEY PIAUD

ITSY WITSY DISASTER My most embarrassing moment was when I was in class and a spider landed on my desk. I screamed so loudly that everyone in class turned to look at me. Then they started to laugh at me because it was such a small spider.

Lilly

WARDROBE MALFUNCTION My most embarrassing moment was when we were having a garage sale in front of our house. Some people were looking at our stuff and I was talking to them. Then I went inside to get something and I saw my mum. She told me that my jeans were not zipped up and she could see my undies!

Argh!

Gemma

THE BIG CRASH Mum, my little brother Levi and I went to Coles the day before a public holiday so it was really busy and the aisles were very full. We were in the aisle where all the cooking things were and then Levi knocked a big glass measuring cup and it smashed down on the floor! The noise it made was really loud – even the people working at the cash register stopped scanning the customers’ things!

Everyone stared at us. When the man came to sweep it up he had a very angry face.

I Confess!

These readers are ready to reveal their secrets!

NATASHA Sometimes, when no one is looking, I sneak the packet of marshmallows out of the cupboard and eat them! One time I ate like 10 right before dinner because I love marshmallows. I won’t do it again!

ELSIE My sister got a pack of gum for her birthday and I was so jealous that when she was on the trampoline, I went into her room and quickly got the gum and ran into my room. When she went to bed I got up and ate it all. The next day she went to have some and she realised it was all gone. I’m really sorry Sis.

Every I CONFESS! reader featured this issue wins a ZURU My Magical Mermaid Water Wonderland play set.

ELLA I was playing with my friend Charlotte and we were both skipping. Then this boy came and ran in front of us. He was going to stand on Charlotte’s foot and I tried to whip his foot but instead I whipped my friend Charlotte’s foot.

Sorry Charlotte!

My island home Shetland ponies are named hetland Isles – a group of islands off t coast of Scotland. While this is where they originated, Shetlands can now be found all over the world!

The Shetland Isles are very cold and windy, and this is why Shetland ponies developed their thick shaggy coats.

Smart as a whip These cute creatures are really smart! Shetlands can even be trained as guide horses for the vision-impaired, just like guide dogs. How amazing! Shetland ponies are usually gentle and good-tempered… but they c eky!

Rainbow bright You’ll find Shetland ponies in lots of different colours like black, grey, chestnut and even piebald, which means white with black splotches!

, Go! he Melbourne Cup – lumpton race course in the UK, kid jockeys compete in the Shetland Pony Gold Cup!

Fast Facts • Shetlands can live for 30 years.

• They eat grass, leaves, twigs and hay.

• In the 19th century, Shetlands were used to pull carts in coal mines!

• The Queen had a Shetland pony when she was a little girl! Her name was Peggy.

this June and we’re super excited Finding Dor y is hitting our shores Finding Nemo has to offer! to finally see what the sequel to

This magical movie follows Dory, a friendly but ever-so-forgetful Blue Tang fish as she reunites with her lost loved ones! Remembering that she has a family who are living their lives out in the big blue somewhere, Dory fears that they might be looking for her.

She sets out with Marlin and Nemo to try and reunite with her long-lost family.

WHO’S BACK?

DORY

ry is lovable and kind. She’s a very bubbly fish (LOL!) and she easily makes new friends.

Her positive attitude makes her personality shine. Dory also has short-term memory loss which means she’s ditzy and forgetful.

MARLIN

This caring clownfish is very protective of his son, Nemo. While at first he seems nervous and negative, Marlin eventually proves himself as an extremely brave little fish who will go to great lengths for the ones he loves

NEMO

Nemo is a young clownfi who is full of energy and enthusiasm. He’s eager to explore the big blue ocean. When Dory decides to find her family, loyal friend Nemo is the first to offer his help… much to his dad’s dismay!

50

WHO’S NEW?

HANK

Hank is a ‘septopus’. He was an octopus, but unfortunately he lost a tentacle, along with his sense of humour. He was born in captivity and will do whatever it takes to escape to a quiet facility in Cleveland.

JENNY & CHARLIE

enny and Charlie are Dory’s parents and they would do anything for their only child!

Charlie is a joker who likes to have a good laugh. Jenny is a little flighty and whimsical, like Dory, but she is also very protective of her daughter.

WORDS: JESSY FAIR IMAGES: DISNEY PIXAR

BAILEY

DESTINY

This beluga whale lives at the Marine Life Institute, where SPOILER ALERT Dory winds up. Bailey can be a little paranoid and dramatic. He thinks his sonar skills aren’t working properly but the doctors can’t find anything wrong!

Destiny is a whale shark who’s funny and warm-hearted. She’s also big and clumsy, and she finds this a little bit embarrassing. She may not be the most graceful shark at the Marine Life Institute, but she’s certainly the friendliest.

FISHY FACTS!

• TV host Ellen DeGeneres is the voice of Dory!

• Dory is the most liked character on Facebook from any Disney or Pixar film. She has over 25 million likes! #popular • Even though we have waited a whole 13 years to see this sequel, the film is actually set only a year after Finding Nemo.

• There were 12 first drafts of the script before the producers were finally happy with the end result!

Flushed Fun! Ange and Jessy got to witness all the awesome action first hand when they visited the set of game show Flushed! Here’s a peek of what they discovered during their visit…

Beware of the Sludge Flushed is a super fun game show that involves all different types of skills! Two teams start off answering questions about a variety of topics to earn time on the clock. The next stage sees the teams race against each other and time to connect tubes to complete a link. The winner of those rounds gets to go on the leader board to win the major prize. Their opponents get trapped in the sludge tank, where a GIGANTIC vat of purple sludge hangs above them. Once the winning team cranks the lever, the team in the tank gets flushed with the cold purple sludge. Eeek!

Uh-oh, Ange and Jessy look like they’re about to get… FLUSHED!

Tune into Flushed series 2, weekdays 7am on 7TWO!

Team Talk We grabbed tips off Emily and Uma from Flushing Fools and Maria and Scarlett from Drama Queens...

Drama Queens

Chatting With Candice Candice Dixon is the lovely host of Flushed season 2!

What’s been the funniest thing that’s happened on set?

I crack up every time the teams look up in the Flushed tank.

Sometimes I shout “look up” and the purple sludge lands right in the middle of their goggles. You can barely recognise the teams!

I also find it hilarious when the teams start dancing while they are covered in sludge.

WORDS & INTERVIEWS: ANGELA LEE

Have you experienced being Flushed yet?

Yes, I’ve been Flushed a few times! I love it, for some reason I find it quite refreshing. The suspense is the weirdest part.

You never know when the sludge is going to land all over you… all of a sudden you can only see purple!

How do you think you would go if you were a contestant?

I think I’d be best at the general knowledge round. I love learning and once I hear something, I remember it! Up on the build platform, I feel like I’d need a few practice rounds before I was confident enough to call “link complete!”

How did you prepare for the Q&A round?

Our parents tested us with questions every day and we did a few general knowledge quizzes online.

Unfortunately, none of the questions we researched came up in the quiz!

What are your dos and don’ts for being Flushed?

Be prepared to get cold and sticky and never ever look up with your mouth open!

Are there any funny moments on set that you can share with us?

The clock didn’t start a couple of times and sometimes the balls started flying everywhere all over the set! The crew were so nice and funny!

Flushing Fools What was the audition process like for the show?

We answered some general knowledge questions and then played some games so they could see how we worked as a team.

How did you prepare for the build platform round?

We just stayed calm, worked together and listened to each other’s ideas.

What are some good strategies to have for this round?

Make sure the tubes are tight and put in the right place.

CENTRE OF ATTENTION Meet Jenna Ortega – she plays Harley in the fun new Disney Channel show, Stuck in the Middle!

Are you anything like Harley?

I relate to Harley because we’re both middle children in big families, we love Maths and Science, and we’re both big goofballs!

What’s the best thing about being a part of a big family?

It’s hard to get bored. We always come up with something fun to do and there’s always someone to play with.

Have there been any aspects of Harley that have influenced you?

Some of Harley’s inventions have influenced me to try new things. I love that she is an inventor and may possibly influence young girls to be more creative. We have a lot in common. For the most part, I feel like I am playing myself!

With so many young actors on the show, are there pranks on set?

Yes, we love pranking each other! On April Fool’s Day we gave Isaak an Oreo filled with deodorant instead of cream. He ran around screaming for half an hour. He told us he would get revenge in a big way, so we’re all on the lookout.

What do you like to do in your spare time?

I love tumbling, playing soccer, watching movies, and hanging out with my friends and family.

SWEET SABRINA We chat with the bubbly Girl Meets World star about her new music and what inspires her the most!

What can we expect from your new album?

I’ve been writing this second album since we started our hiatus from Season 2 of Girl Meets World and it’s something that I’m so excited about. My fans have just heard the first single, which is ‘Smoke and Fire’, and they have been the best people in the world. I’m really glad they’re loving it.

How do you write songs?

It’s always different! I think every songwriter has a different way of doing things.

Sometimes it comes together in 15 minutes, and sometimes it takes three days! Luckily for me, I’ve been working with some really incredible songwriters who help me bring my vision to life. It’s been really fun.

Have you ever had a “pinch me” moment since starting your showbiz career?

Well, recently, I was at the recording studio and I met Beyoncé and it was kind of crazy!

There were security guards everywhere and I just walked down the hall and Beyoncé walked past and she turned around to stop and tell me that she was a fan! I was in awe, I didn’t know what to say!

I’m such a big fan of hers as a person as well as an artist, she’s an all-round legend.

That was an honour and a “pinch me” moment for sure!

What do you like to do when you get

62

free time?

This is going to sound really boring but I like to write songs in my free time. I like to sit at my piano and play and sing really loudly.

When no one is home except for my dog, I’ll sing at the top of my lungs and she’ll get so annoyed! Ha ha! I also like to hang with my friends and talk. I’m a talker!

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given?

Stay humble. And appreciate what you have! Sometimes we get caught up in the moment and forget that there are so many good things happening in our lives. Take a breath. There’s so much more to come and so many doors you haven’t opened yet.

INTERVIEW: JESSY FAIR IMAGE: GETTY IMAGES

Who are your musical influences?

There are so many incredible people. My main influences are Adele, Christina Aguilera and The Beatles. Very soulful music – I like old souls!

the latest music THE VAMPS (FEATURING OMI) I FOUND A GIRL We’ve been having boy band withdrawals lately, so we’re really excited about The Vamps’ new single. The boys have been busy touring the world with sold out concerts and appearances on huge TV shows and now this fan-favourite single from their album Wake Up has finally hit the airwaves. We’re celebrating by playing ‘I Found A Girl’ on repeat!

MEGHAN TRAINOR THANK YOU Coming off her Grammy Award win for Best New Artist, Miss Meghan Trainor has stepped up her music game with a mind blowing new album! First single ‘No’ is a feisty and fun anthem that instantly sticks in your head.

There are 12 totally groovy songs on this CD and you’ve got to listen to them all!

THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE ORIGINAL MOTION PICTURE SOUNDTRACK Bird up! Here at LAHQ we are Angry Bird crazy! The only thing more fun than The Angry Birds Movie is the soundtrack, featuring new tracks from country superstar Blake Shelton and pop queens Charli XCX and Demi Lovato. There are also tons of classic songs thrown on this one too with the addition of the worldwide hit from Imagine Dragons, ‘On Top of the World ‘. Love it!

t is safe to say that the world has caught Troye Sivan fever, so it’s no wonder that the talented Aussie has released remixes of his smash hit ‘Youth’, so you can enjoy your favourite summer song all over again in a brand new way! All the remixes are distinctly different and offer interesting takes on the temp and beats of the original. Overall, these songs are all great to dance around to!

Did You Know?

Girls touch their faces and hair a lot. You’re probably doing it right now, while you read this story!

Dirt and oil from your scalp can transfer to your face, leading to pimples. Eek!

Eat Up Maintain healthy, shiny hair and a healthy scalp by eating foods packed with zinc and silica. You could munch on chickpeas, dark chocolate or oats!

air

esses with these top haircare tips!

Dos and Don’ts Do • Leave your conditioner on for a minute or two before you wash it out. This lets it soak into the hair.

• Use a detangling spray if your hair is knotty.

We like Girl Lane Detangling Mist which repairs damaged hair and conditions to leave it smooth and soft!

• Tie your hair in two pigtails when you go to sleep to stop tangling.

Don’t • Brush your hair when it’s wet as this stretches hair strands and can break them.

• Give yourself a haircut! Cutting hair is really, really hard, so leave it to the professionals.

Wash your hair regularly to avoid oily buildups and breakouts on your back, face and body. We love using Girl Lane Hydrating Shampoo and Strengthening Conditioner because they’re made with a high blend of coconut, macadamia and argan oils to restore moisture for healthy hair.

Girl Lane products have been made using a unique blend of natural and botanical ingredients to protect developing Tween hair from harsh environmental factors. Girl Lane products can be found at Priceline! For more haircare tips, check out Girl Lane on Facebook or Instagram, or visit www.girllane.com.au
