Interesting Hayley Facts

[Jillian]

Everytime a biography of Hayley is produced, it's usually the same old thing, born in Christchurch, was discovered whilst busking .... and in interviews it's usually the same old questions.

So I thought it might be fun to have a thread where members can post the more oddball facts they know about Hayley that usually don't get brought up. I'm sure this will be a great opportunity for some members to shine! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif

I'll start.

-- Hayley likes Cadbury Wispa bars

-- Hayley sometimes hangs her laundry up in her bathroom

-- Hayley likes Guinness - sometimes with blackcurrant

-- Hayley ordered Steak Tartare whilst at a lunch with Jonathan Ansell

-- Lindka Cierach designed her 2009 Classical Brit Awards dress and also designed the blue coat worn in the Winter Magic photoshoot.


Okay, enough from me! Everyone else's turn now!

Oooh, how do you know this?? Is this in the booklet for WM? Ceirach is a pretty awesome designer.

Hi Dori,

Hayley thanked Lindka in the booklet for Winter Magic, so I got on her website to see what I could find. The blue coat is in her collection online and other pieces are probably designed by her (I guess).

Hi Jillian

I think Lindka should get Hayley to do some of the formal modelling of her designs. The top picture leaves me cold and I wouldn't take a second look at the coat. However, the way they've made it look on Hayley for the photo shoot, the coat looks fantastic.

..... and that's not just because Hayley's wearing it!

Best wishes

-- The total length of her NZ edition of Pure is 46 minutes and 46 seconds.

-- Hayley performed at the Palladium in London on the 46th day of this year. The element "palladium" has the atomic number 46.
