Some of their recent live performances have been pretty much spot on the money and are Â becoming increasingly polished compared to their very early efforts and putting a lot of established acts to shame. . See theÂ NEW FJ Girls VideosÂ (currently being developed) for 4 live vids from their performanceÂ at “T in the Park” that causedÂ chaos there, andÂ that we also rate highly.

They are due to perform at the Vodafone Live Music Awards being held this week and are Live at the Shepherds Bush Empire in London in October amongst other appearances. They are fresh, different, focused and talented but mainstream enough to make it very big and with the thumbs up from the very difficult to crack US,Â they have global appeal,Â they are definetly an act to keep your eye on!

Â Birthdays Today:Â Jennifer Tilley

She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role as a hopelessly bad actress in Woody Allen’s Bullets Over Broadway (1994). In 1994, she also had a small role in the The Getaway with Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger. Tilly was ranked #23 in Celebrity Sleuth “25 Sexiest Women of 1995.”

Tilly appeared in Bound, which revolves around a lesbian relationship her character has with Gina Gershon. She played Samantha Cole in the 1997 Jim Carrey hit, Liar Liar. In 2000, Tilly appeared in the film Dancing at the Blue Iguana in which she played a stripper and part-time dominatrix.

Tilly gained some additional popularity in recent years for providing voice-over work as killer doll Tiffany for the Child’s Play series of movies. In the most recent installment, Seed of Chucky, she plays a dual role, not only providing the voice for Tiffany but also playing an exaggerated version of herself.Â
