Seven’s Sunrise attempts TV show world first
September 08, 2015 7:49AM
Sunrise announce their round the world trip!
In a world first for a television show, Sunrise will be reporting live from five different countries in just five days.
Kicking things off in Dubai next week, Seven’s breakfast show will then hit London, New York and the Canadian side of the Niagara Falls, before closing out the five-day stint in Cancun, Mexico. That’s a whopping 39,686km, seven flights and 48h, 22m flying time in total.
“In the biggest week in Sunrise history, we are also lining up the world’s biggest stars — don’t say we never do anything for you,” co-host Sam Armytage teased. “A-list talent from all over the globe will be part of our extraordinary trip.”
Kochie then revealed that big names Ed Sheeran, Phil Collins, Adam Lambert and Hugh Jackman will join the team on their round the world trip.
Jamie Lawson, Simple Plan, Aston Merrygold and Seal will also appear.
“It is going to be one of our most star-studded weeks in Sunrise history. Five countries, five days and the countries are not even close together,” Kochie said.
Armytage added: “How are we going to do it, I hear you ask? This is a logistical nightmare, you should see the itinerary but it’s taken months of top secret planning from a small very hard working covert team of producers.”
Kochie promised viewers they will be treated to a “behind-the-scenes” look at the show throughout the week. “Every day next week we’ll show you what’s really going on behind the scenes, Kardashian style ... you will see how we get to each place and what it takes to broadcast three hours of live television from five countries in five days. All the raw, uncut video.”
Sunrise executive producer Michael Pell said: “Broadcasting three hours live from five countries in five days represents our biggest logistical challenge yet. If we can pull it off, it will make history and provide a spectacular week of viewing.”
Kochie, Sam, Nat, Beretts and Eddy will be broadcasting live from Dubai on Monday morning.
First stop: Dubai

Q3 note: I believe that Adam does indeed has a Top 5 song in Russia!
Is Adam Lambert’s ‘Ghost Town’ the No. 5 Song in Russia?
Despite the government’s homophobic policies, it seems that Russians still love a gay icon.

According to the website Top40-Charts.com, Adam Lambert’s ‘Ghost Town’ is the No. 5 track in Russia.
That’s right, a song by the out and proud Adam Lambert may very well be one of the most popular songs the Russian. In case you forgot, Russia’s not too keen on the gays.
The site reports that the lead single off Lambert’s third album, The Original High, took the fifth spot last week and held tight through July 20, which is the date of Top40-Charts.com’s latest report.
While the website’s metric and sources remain a mystery, the track’s popularity has been confirmed by other sources. According to Shazam’s data, the song’s been looked up 2,532,645 times on their app, making it the tenth most Shazamed song in the Russian Federation.
The Russian government has taken a hard line stance against performers who might violate their ban on “homosexual propaganda.” Putin threatened to jail Madonna for violating the law and a Russian court ruled that Lady Gaga violated the law at a 2012 gig in Moscow. Her Russian concert promoter was fined for the offense.
Like a lot of news out of Russia it’s hard to suss out truth from rumors, but this news is in keeping with the Russian pop sensibility. A survey of Russia's popular entertainment ecosystem shows that the Russian public has a penchant for gender-bending performers. Lambert, who has never been afraid of a little guy liner, certainly fits that bill.

Magical Voice Arrives
by Theosgma
I am so happy to let you all know that I have my hard copy of The Mountain Astrologer in my hot little hands containing the article I have been birthing for longer than my human child: Magical Voice: A Vedic Perspective
Seeing it in print as the featured article in this well regarded maganize available worldwide is quite a thrill. Mine was sent to me by the publisher but I understand that this edition is now in the process of distribution to chains such as Barnes and Noble and Whole Foods. I imagine the West Coast stores will be the first to receive it as it comes of out of Northern California. It is issue #183 - October/November 2015
If you are not in an area close to these stores or if your Barnes and Noble etc. doesn’t carry it, it can be ordered from the publishers at their website mountainastrolger.com. I am not at liberty to post it online as I am under contract.
However, I will be contacting the publisher tomorrow to see if I can tweet out the title page and picture so folks can get an idea of the flavor. It is pretty user friendly even if one is not an astrologer and I was taken by surprise to see that they rendered the astrological charts as a kind of blend between a Western chart with the Western glyphs and a South Indian Vedic chart. It is much easier to explain to a novice and if requested, I would be happy to do that on the Astrology thread so you can follow it better. Even without understanding the chart itself, you can get the gist pretty well from the text.
If you haven’t been aware of this before, the article compares three singers for combinations that make their voices unforgettable, even magical. The singers are Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Adam Lambert. When I submitted it, I tried to stay a bit closeted as I wasn’t sure how the editors would feel about Adam since he was not yet at the level of the other two in terms of iconic status but they ran with it.
My whole reason for writing this was to show that Adam’s voice was truly remarkable as viewed through yet another lens - the lens of karma in this case and also that his longevity in the field would not be an issue from this viewpoint. I told Adam about it at the Barnes and Noble signing and he said he was honored to be among the other two singers being analyzed for magical voice.
