Hi Every one, Yes it was a shame Hayley did not win, this award but i think its as you say Stephany.,Dave And alas we don't hear Hayley much on the radio  But one day in the next year or so she will get the honour she deserves to be on the New Years honours or Queens Birthday lists. for her dedication to music i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBelinda |

"Dame Hayley Westenra" certainly has a nice ring to it! and I've felt for a while now that she really deserves it!

Oh noooooooooooooo.
Hayley is far to young and beautiful to be called Dame.
Just think of some of the others who are called Dame.
Do you want to put half of the record buying public off completely.
Noooooooooooooooooo !

Hayley is far to young and beautiful to be called Dame. When Hayley was in Paris in November 06 at the rugby match, the speaker called her 'Mademoiselle Hayley'. It's prettier IMO. Wooops off-topic!  Stephany |

Hayley is far to young and beautiful to be called Dame. Hayley is already a Matron of WEN. 'Dame' is the female equivalent of 'Knight' and is a title of honour. I don't believe there is an age limit, so come on! Let's have a young and beautiful one for a change!  Best wishes Grant |

I'm confused now, because I thought that the NZ Music Awards ceremony was one of the reasons Hayley flew home when she did  And we still don't know whether or not she's flying straight to Japan or coming back to England on the way - or do we? Best wishes Grant Whatever Hayley's doing right now let's hope that she is away having a well deserved holiday and rest. Martin |

I strongly suspect that Hayley being based in London is a handicap for her... But only in New Zealand. If she was still based down there, it would be a much bigger handicap for her everywhere else. Better luck next time, Hayley!  Richard  |

OK nothing at all Best wishes Grant Hi Grant Recent news items confirm that Hayley is still at home enjoying her time with her family. As she will still be in NZ next Friday we can assume that she will be going straight to Japan for her first concert on 30th Oct. Martin |

I'm a little confused. I'm watching the NZ Music Awards right now, but it's called the Vodafone NZ Music awards. Is this the same one??? Dori |
