Pixie Lott plays her 'last gig', due to deliver second child in early September, Entertainment News

AsiaOne10-08-2025
Pixie Lott has revealed she is due to give birth to her second child in early September.
Speaking exclusively to The Voice Kids favourite, 34, who is seven months pregnant, made the admission while speaking to The Sun after a gig at the Kendal Calling festival, at which her model husband Oliver and their son Bertie, 23 months, supported her from the side of the stage.
She said: "I think the last gig (I will play this year - Flackstock on Aug 8) is going to be four weeks before the due date. So yeah, I think it's going to be fine.'
Pixie also explained she had been cleared by her doctor to continue performing "for as long as it feels good".
She added: "I did it last time and I've checked with the doc and he said that it's fine to keep doing it as long as you feel good.
"So hopefully, I mean that last show, four weeks, I don't know how long… woo!"
Pixie, who released her top 10 album Encino last year, described how her life on the road is now shaped by parenting alongside performing.
She said: "It's more tiring being pregnant, waking up early and running around after him than the shows. "Because with the shows I get like an adrenaline that takes over so I don't even think about it. The tiring bit is the running around after the toilet fight."
She added her boy Bertie enjoys festivals and is now happy to wear ear defenders to protect his hearing.
Pixie also discussed her forthcoming music, including a new single Coming of Age, due for release on Aug 21, and a "heartfelt" Christmas song written with a friend.
She said: "Every song that I'm going to be putting out is just going to be about my state of life now, so like having a family, and we're expecting our second, we've moved house, and just like this state of life.
"I think a lot of people are able to relate, hopefully, because we're all going through the same kind of changes, and I just want it to be as real as possible."
Having been in the music industry for 18 years, Pixie also spoke about enjoying the independence her success has brought.
She added: "At the start you've got no clue, you're 18. So in a way it feels changed to be at the stage where I know what I want to do more clearly."
Pixie also praised emerging female artists such as Lola Young, Skye Newman and Sienna Spiro.
She was a mentor on ITV's The Voice Kids for seven series until it was put on hiatus in 2023, and said about the experience: "I absolutely loved doing it. We did seven seasons, and they said it's taking a rest, so I don't know when the rest is up.
"I would love to (return.)
"Bertie was in my belly for the last season but he wasn't actually here. He would absolutely love it. We should definitely bring it back."

Ozzy Osbourne Cause of Death Revealed: Iconic Black Sabbath Singer Died Aged 76 'Surrounded by Love' Leaving World of Heavy Metal Shattered

Ozzy Osbourne's cause of death has been revealed. The iconic Black Sabbath lead singer suddenly died at the age of 76 on July 22 from cardiac arrest, acute myocardial infarction, coronary artery disease, and Parkinson's disease, according to a death certificate obtained by The Sun on Tuesday. The document was filed by his daughter, Aimee Osbourne, at a registry office in London, according to The New York Times. Ozzy's family had earlier confirmed his death in a statement. "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning," the heartbreaking statement from his family read. Was Suffering from Multiple Ailments Ozzy Osbourne X "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time. Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis," the statement added. The legendary musician was buried last Thursday near the lake at his home in Buckinghamshire. Around 110 guests attended the private ceremony, including family members, music industry figures, and his longtime guitarist Zakk Wylde, who led the somber procession. Ozzy Osbourne performing at his last show three weeks before his death X "The day was incredibly emotional," a source told the Sun. "Pictures of Ozzy were dotted throughout the house and a photograph of him was given to everyone who attended to take home with them." "Ozzy wanted his final place of rest to be at home and he is buried at a beautiful point on the lake," the source added. A emotional funeral procession was held the day before the ceremony, winding through the streets of Ozzy's hometown, Birmingham, England. His widow, Sharon, 72, along with their children—Kelly, 40, Jack, 39, Aimee, 41—and his son Louis, 50, joined thousands of fans in paying their final respects to the legendary heavy metal figure. Ozzy Osbourne X Ozzy's grieving family members wore all-black outfits, each adding personal touches to honor his memory. Photoes from the procession captured an emotional Sharon embracing Kelly and holding Jack's hands as she wept before a memorial dedicated to Ozzy, where the family placed purple flowers. Sharon and the children walked closely behind as the hearse transporting the Prince of Darkness' body made its way along Birmingham's well-known Broad Street, stopping briefly at the Black Sabbath Bench and Bridge. A Star Is Gone Ozzy's death came over five years after he publicly revealed his Parkinson's disease diagnosis in January 2020. Born John Michael Osbourne on December 3, 1948, in Birmingham, England, he earned the nickname "Ozzy" during his early school years. Ozzy Osbourne X Though he faced a tough upbringing, music became a vital escape and source of expression for him. Struggling with dyslexia, learning didn't come easy for Osbourne. He also revealed that he was sexually abused by bullies at the age of 11 and remembered trying to commit suicide during his teenage years. Osbourne credited The Beatles—particularly their 1964 hit "She Loves You"—as the spark that ignited his passion for a career in music. At 15, Osbourne dropped out of school and took on various manual labor jobs. By the time he was 17, he served six weeks at Winson Green prison after being unable to pay a fine for stealing from a clothing shop. Ozzy Osbourne with his wife Sharon Arden X After his release, Osbourne teamed up with his friend Geezer Butler to form their first band, Rare Breed, with Ozzy taking on the role of lead singer. In 1967, Osbourne co-founded Black Sabbath, a band widely credited with helping to shape the heavy metal genre. They produced legendary tracks such as "Paranoid," "War Pigs," and "Iron Man," which became defining songs of the movement. Both the band and Ozzy frequently faced criticism for the dark and occasionally "satanic" nature of their lyrics and themes. Twitter / Ozzy Osbourne "When we started gigging way back when, as soon as we started playing this song's opening chords, young girls in the audience would f–king freak out," Osbourne told NME in 2016. "They thought we were Satan's f–king friends or something." "That's when the whole 'Prince of Darkness' s–t started," he explained about the origin of his nickname. "When people get excited about Halloween coming around each year, all I think is, 'Well, we used to have Halloween every f–king night." In 1979, Ozzy was fired from Black Sabbath due to his struggles with drug and alcohol addiction—something he later described as feeling hypocritical, given the band's own lifestyle. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel betrayed by what happened with Black Sabbath," he wrote in his 2009 memoir "I Am Ozzy." "We were four blokes who'd grown up together a few streets apart. We were like family, like brothers. And firing me for being f–ked up was hypocritical bulls–t. We were all f–ked up." Ozzy Osbourne X "If you're stoned, and I'm stoned, and you're telling me that I'm fired because I'm stoned, how can that be? Because I'm slightly more stoned than you are?" he added. That's when Sharon, the daughter of Black Sabbath's manager Don Arden, stepped in to take charge of Ozzy's career as a solo artist. Ozzy went on to release 12 solo albums, featuring iconic tracks like "Crazy Train," "Mama, I'm Coming Home," and "No More Tears."

Kristin Cabot: HR Chief Caught Cuddling Her CEO Boss at Coldplay Concert Recently Took Out $1.6 Million Mortgage with Her Husband

The HR executive caught on camera cuddling her boss at a Coldplay concert had taken out a massive $1.6 million mortgage with her husband not long before the incident, it has emerged. Kristin Cabot and her husband, Andrew Cabot—an heir to the Cabot family's $15.4 billion fortune—bought a $2.2 million home along the coast of New Hampshire in March this year. However, according to property documents reviewed by The Sun, the affluent couple, listed as husband and wife in state records, did not purchase the "fixer-upper" property outright. Both Kristin and Andrew are reportedly listed on the loan documents for the $1.6 million mortgage secured through Morgan Stanley. Affluent Family's Big Buy Kristin Cabot with her husband, Andrew Cabot Facebook Kristin, 52, and Andrew, 60, had planned to renovate the classic New England-style home, a four-bedroom, two-bath property set on 1.42 acres. The house was sold in its current condition and reportedly "needs rehab," according to the publication. It remains unclear whether the couple has hired contractors or begun any renovation work. Andrew and his elite family are now at the center of a global scandal that erupted unexpectedly after Kristin was seen on a kiss cam getting close to her coworker, Andy Byron, during a Coldplay concert in Boston last week. Kristin Cabot LinkedIn The pair, who quickly turned away when they appeared on the big screen, worked together at the AI company Astronomer. Byron stepped down as CEO last week. He is also married—to Megan—and the couple owns a large estate in Massachusetts. Kristin and Andrew have not made any public appearances since the viral footage of her intimate moment with Byron at the Coldplay concert surfaced. It remains unclear whether the couple has since separated. According to Massachusetts property records from January, Kristin is currently married to Andrew, who is both the CEO and COO of Privateer Rum. Kristin Cabot tried to hide her face the moment she realized that she and her boss Andy Byron were caught on camera X Although the exact date of their marriage is unclear, documents confirm that Kristin—formerly known by her maiden name, Stanek—was married when she sold a $1.8 million home in Watertown, Massachusetts, earlier this year. Strong Bond after Second Marriage Public records also reveal that Andrew has been married at least twice before, in 1993 and again in 2014. He shares two children with his first wife, Maud, who posted a photo on social media last April showing Andrew and Kristin appearing loved up at their daughter's 25th birthday celebration. Kristin Cabot was caught cuddling her boss, Andy Byron' on the Coldplay 'kiss cam' X Kristin was even seen in the photos posing with Andrew's 30-year-old son, Henry, and wearing a wedding ring—though the ring was noticeably absent during her cozy moment with Byron at the concert. Earlier this year, Kristin and Andrew were also listed as "husband and wife" in documents for the purchase of their $2.2 million two-story home in Rye, New Hampshire. Since the property is under lien, the couple may be forced to sell it if they decide to move ahead with a divorce or legal separation. Regardless of who continues living in the home—which features high ceilings, a wraparound porch, a walk-up attic, and a two-car garage—both parties remain liable for mortgage payments. One spouse could potentially buy out the other's share or refinance the loan to assume full ownership. In February, Kristin and Andrew also sold another four-bedroom home for $1.05 million, less than a year after purchasing it in April 2024. Andrew filed for divorce from his second wife, Julie, in 2018, after four years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. He and his first wife, Maud, jointly filed for divorce in 2013 following their separation in 2011. Kristin was also previously married. She filed for divorce from Ken Thornby in 2018, and the process was finalized in 2020. Andrew comes from one of Boston's original Brahmin families—a group of elite, long-established families descended from early English settlers who held great social, political, and cultural influence starting in the 18th century. Andrew touts his family lineage on the Privateer Rum website, highlighting that he is a sixth-generation descendant of the company's original founder, also named Andrew Cabot—whom he appears to be named after. Andy Byron LinkedIn Over the centuries, the family built a vast fortune—now estimated at $15.4 billion—and held an elite, almost untouchable status in Boston's social circles, until John F. Kennedy's rise in politics challenged that dominance. In 1952, JFK notably defeated Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. in a U.S. Senate race, a turning point that helped elevate the Kennedy family to national prominence. Andrew Cabot has two children from his first marriage to Maud, who posted a photo on social media in April last year showing Andrew and Kristin looking affectionate at their daughter's 25th birthday celebration.
