A clean conscience - New Idea (March 08)

[Dori]

Hello everyone,

I bought the magazine today, and Hayley is on the cover (not a cover story, but on the side of the cover). Great article, and will send scans in soon.

Stay tuned...

Hello everyone

My copy of this magazine arrived from New Zealand this morning and I hope Dori won't mind me posting the scans.

Here is the cover


Although it states "Hayley Westenra Speaks out about Kiri", she says little more than that she knows about it.

The article itself (the text of which has already been posted by Stephany, although the photo is different



and a larger image of the photo. Although we've seen pictures of Hayley in this dress before (at the 'Brits' I believe) I don't recall seeing this actual one before.



Best wishes
Grant

Hi Grant, thanks for posting the scans!!
I looked at the picture, and behind Hayley you see,the classical Brits logo, so this picture must be taken at the classical brit awards show 2006.
I looked at the thread,hayley in media, Classical Brits 2006, and there she wears the same dress,and you can find some other pictures!! Greetz JOYCE.

Here's the article from "New Idea":

Hayley Westenra: A CLEAN CONSCIENCE
"New Idea" - By Trudie McConnochie

'I do enjoy the buzzes of London city, but I'm still a Kiwi girl at heart.' Socialising provides valuable respite from her relentless schedule, but down-time has not always been a priority. 'When I was younger, I was a little bit too focused on my career, But in the last few years I've found a really good balance and learnt you don't always need to do everything,' says Hayley, who is dating and describes herself as 'super picky' when it comes to boys.

'My sister's just started urn [? Belinda, a Kiwi college term or a typing error?] and is going to orientation week with toga parties. It all sounds like so much fun, but I don't feel like I've missed out on anything. I feel like I have been so lucky to be living such a rich life.'

An absolutely superb dress. An evening gown, personal dress or will we see her on stage in it some time? An absolutely superb publicity shot.

This is the wonder of the girl: she's showing her great diversity--both this shot and the one on the front cover of Time Out suit her to a 'T'. Each is truly herself, not a momentary pose in one or other phase while the other is the 'real' her. Both images are her unquestionably the 'real' person--and what a contrast.

She's giving herself space, beginning to feel more relaxed with the pace of her life--not slowing up just pacing herself better.

Everyday that passes this girl seems to show a new slant on who she is, she seems to blossom ever more radiantly and shows new and ever more exciting twists and turns.

Hi!

Thank you, Stephany, for this article!
It's nice to read how Hayley handles criticism in her own way. She couldn't have done any better.

Thanks for the scan, Grant. I like the dress she wore at the Classical Brits 2006. But the dress in the first article is beautilful as well. Never seen Hayley wearing it on stage so far. Maybe it was just for the photo shoot?

Hello Grant,

No no, not at all. Thanks so much for doing that, actually. I've been so so busy with university, I'm really glad somebody got round to doing it. It is yet another great article to read about Hayley, with fabulous photos.

Thanks a bunch, Grant.
