As ridiculous as this blog post may sound, you'll soon get what I mean - trust me!

(This is me mid-tint. It almost looks like surgery! Luckily, it's not - that's for a few years down the line!!)

On Saturday, whilst nursing my slight wine induced hangover from the ball I went to the night before, I was invited down to Solace Spa in Birmingham. Sadly the plan wasn't to have a massage, although this was probably for the best - having returned home at 3.30am and then been up at 9.30 to go and present my hospital radio show I think I would, by then, have fallen alseep. Instead, I went along with a friend of mine for an eyelash tint. Now, having very dark hair and subsequently eyelashes already, I was a little dubious as to whether the outcome would make any difference or not. As it happens it did - it looked a little like a light coating of mascara and will apparently last up to a month... perfect for brightening my deathly face in the early morning gym sessions I plan to get back into the habit of doing! Although should this take me much longer to write and post then tomorrow's might not happen - good start!

So I'm finally updating you on what I should have updated you on a week ago; Adee Phelan's salon launch. And oh baby, was that a launch. My highlight was... well, I'll tell you that later.

Promising to be filled with celebs and "A-listers", I have to admit I was dubious; aside from myself being in attendance of course (darlings, it's only a matter of time before I am enlisted), I expected the usual Brummie media crowd/luvvies (delete as appropriate) that this sort of event attracts, I expected to see councillor Mike Whitby, I expected to see a couple of Birmingham's presenters and newsreaders from ITV central and the BBC... I secretly hoped that since Adee is the creative shears behind many a haircut of Mr David Beckham (sigh) we might get a special guest appearance from him... no such luck. However, despite no super "A-lister" such as the delightful Mr Beckham, I was pleasantly surprised by a plethora of Corrie stars! Although it might have been a little better if I was a Coronation Street fan; as it happens I don't watch it.

So with the latest celeb body revelation turning out to be that of Jodie Marsh and her bodybuilder's physique, I got to wondering what a Diva might look like should she masculine up and stick melons on her chest (no offence, Jode).

What do you think my lovelies... a bit more facial fake tan maybe?
