Diversity

[JessikaJai]

Shante still doesn’t follow her on Instagram. Definitely a fall out

She still likes and comments on Laura’s Instagram posts.

Jess is definitely drifting into the influencer life on tiktok! Lots of GRWM, daily vlogs etc
---


Is she only in it for 5 mins? Jesus. I thought she had more of a main role given how much backstage she’s shared

I think even 5 minutes is generous

I do feel for Georgia in all this back slapping and congratulating thats going on about the end of tour . She is still a part of diversity too.
Did Ashley thank her for staying behind and running the classes at the studio whilst tour took place?

I take back what I said before. There’s definitely some issues with Georgia and Starr. I imagine as they’re liking each other’s posts it more a case they’ve grown apart.

It looks like Najah is taking a short break and potentially staying on with the group for the remainder of this year. I think the girls gel better with her than Georgia.

Has anyone seen that Jess surprised Perri with his sister and Geo tagging along on a trip to NYC for his 30th. Bit odd to bring along who she's closest to rather than someone like Mitch or the other boys?

I imagine they’re going now as Panto and all in December..

Not a hope of Jord going with that one at home he lives with. Is Perri close with Mitch or the others? I never really got the impression they were besties.

 

[JessikaJai]

He doesn’t strike me as that either, but he does come across as someone who NEEDS a partner, essentially to look after him. Or maybe he’s just after a few hookups?

I never gave the thought of hook ups! You could be right there.

 

[JessikaJai]

Seems star got close with Jess and Najah during the tour and neglected Geos friendship. If they were that close they’d of linked up soon after tour to catch up etc. But hasn’t been any of that.
Lovely to see Shante including in Geos photos and posts recently. Can’t imagine how lonely those 7 months on tour were for her.

 

[JessikaJai]

What is Jess doing on the tour? Saw her pic on stage?

She plays a nurse.

So geo posted some interesting stories this week.
One about one of the new diversity dancers (mya) and how she wouldn't have got through this year without her (a happy bday post)
Then she posted saying she had a ticket to Adele in Munich this weekend that she didn't want.
Then a letting people go image thing.
And now starr has put she is in Munich with someone and I'm assuming that's to see Adele.
I think something has definitely happened

I saw she got her keys to a new home and star congratulated her as her neighbour so idk

Starr was in it because Perri is her brother and their mum was one of the chaperones on tour ( mum was also in wardrobe with the other mums - had to earn their keep! ) so it figured she would get into the group. I’ve toured a few times with the group

Oh of course, she’s a great dancer and I think the family are talented. I just think like Jordan, having the surname (Kiely) worked to her advantage and she’s jumped ship like him.

I think if they were still doing the radio show, Jordan would still be taking part in tour as he’d be on the road with them.

But yes unless there’s something in the small print or booklet saying who is part of the tour, it’s misleading in terms of the promotional campaign to feature the two of them on the cover.

I’m cracking up at how badly they placed my hometown (Dublin) on the map in their latest video .

 

[JessikaJai]

All three clips I've seen of the tour seem to be of the same dance/song
Does anyone know if the audience is told this?

What do you mean? of course it’s the same song/dance. It’s the same tour. They perform the same thing every show. Some venues are super strict when it comes to recording so there hasn’t been a great deal of content circulating, usually just stuff from the final song.

And another thing (sorry) there was a sign on the stage screen saying no photography. So anyone that dared to get their phones out were trying to take the odd photo discreetly. They’ve never done this before so even more frustrating that you can’t even get a decent photo of the show. Although I then found it very odd they were re-posting fans’ photos. Is it allowed or not?! Make your minds up ?!

 

[Rose28454]

That’s what I thought it would be, but Ashley makes it sound like they’re actually opening up new studios! Maybe it’s just my brain Your version definitely sounds more viable though.

Yes let’s see what pans out

 

[Mythoughts]

I was thinking the same about the Paris trip. Starr, geo and Nathan were always super close but they haven't gone away. You'd think Ashley would be able to find some cover for classes as geo and Nathan have been holding the fort for 7 months.
My impression from najah isn't mean girls, jess definitely. Najah has posted videos with lots of the others on tour. Whereas jess has stuck to the girls minus shante and perri.

 

[QuirkyFlamingo]

Anyone really confused by Perri’s trip? He said he was going Maldives. He’s not in the Maldives - he’s in Edinburgh with Jess. Do we think he’s getting a tattoo or something?

I reckon it’s just a city break weekend, then maybe Maldives next week? Jordan and Nay go away in a week and I guess they have to have the same annual leave time, with the Kiss show?
Not sure why he’d post that on his story though.

Me. I went to sheffield, the first time ive seen them after wanting to for years. I loved the story and theme of the show but did feel underwhelmed with the dancing, there was quite a lot of new faces i didnt know.
They were really good dont get me wrong but feel the show n performances were probably better years ago

Exactly how I felt! I feel like their last tour was way more engaging and fast paced.

They were amazing but nothing I haven't seen before. I can't imagine them continuing to do this for much longer, especially since Ashley is 37. Only 3 female dancers too, which I was surprised about.

 

[rebelgirl]

I guess you are right. My over defence of Fran seems to have clouded my judgement in that way a little bit. I still think it is weird and I guess time will tell. I hate that I sound like the young ones but I also find it weird that he disproporinately likes her posts in comparison to other women in his circle which strange. Something just feels off to me, but will let it be

 

[avb00]

Unless her clothes are behind Jess’ it seems Shante doesn’t get ready in the girls dressing room.
I know there’s an age gap between the girls but the fact she’s never with him then, even eating screams volumes. There’s almost 25 years between me and one of the teens at work and yet we’re still quite close and we don’t work together anywhere near as much as the Diversity girls

Very true. There’s definitely issues. Not following Jess is the biggest indicator of this. It’s terrible to say but so true - if you’re not following someone you work closely with on a daily basis on Instagram it’s pretty odd.

 

[avb00]

just found this thread after seeing a tiktok of jess hinting at an engagement ring again

Yeah I see him proposing around the time of his 30th in December or early next year as they go away always in the New Year. Definitely no chance of them splitting up. She’s seems to be doing PR and influencing full time now like all the Diversity partners.

 

[Mythoughts]

I know people can wear what they want, but i dont like starrs increased exposure of herself. I know she has always wore clingy stuff but it seems to have upped to wearing lingerie out. Can't see how it ties in with diversitys more wholesome, family, church look.

 

[missyt95]

Are star and geo no more?
