Hello Charlotte Fans, today we start a new week and as always we have new features of the week. First up we have the new weekly feature which is an article written by Joe summarizing the "Touched by an Angel" performance for all our viewers who never got a chance to see it. Included in the summary are video clips of every scene that Charlotte was in during the course of the show. Next up are the media photos of the week. This week the photos are from Charlotte supporting ITV's Year of Promise campaign.  The media feature of the week is one of if not the first article that ever appeared online about Charlotte's debut in the USA in Las Vegas. So keep this in mind when reading. Next I have updated the News page to include some information about Charlotte's return to the USA this September in Nashville for a concert. Also updated today is the Affiliate Network pull down menu to include Erma's newly updated "Angel Advocates" site. Erma is working to create a fan directory so I'd personally appreciate it if you visited her site and filled out the form. Finally I just want to remind all our US viewers that Charlotte will be on Oprah tomorrow so please don't miss it. Read more about her appearance on the News Page. That will just about do it for now, it looks like a busy week already. Of course the week will end with the Classical Brit Awards on Saturday so we are all looking forward to that. I'll be back tomorrow with Oprah Pictures and maybe even a feature story so stay tuned. Thanks for visiting, -  Mark

Good Afternoon Charlotte Fans, Sorry for the delay but there was a lot of e-mail to answer last night and I never got a chance to finish the upload to the site. Today I have some news, some wallpaper and an addition to the lyrics section.  First be sure to check out the News Page for the latest on the Brit Awards and the Oprah Show appearance on Monday next week. Next up we have 2 new packs of Wallpaper from Vikki who has been creating these great sets for us. If you enjoy these send me an E-mail and I'll be sure Vikki receives your praise. Next up if you visit the lyrics page you will find the lyrics for Tormento D'Amore, Charlottes brilliant single in Brazil sung with Agnaldo Rayol. These come from our Brazilian Affiliate Site run by Clarissa. That's the update for today, again be sure to check out the information in the news section. I have been working on tomorrows update since yesterday so it should be a good feature of the week, especially for our broadband viewers. Thanks for visiting and I hope to see you back here tomorrow. Peace be with you,  -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, today I have a small but interesting update for you as we will be saving the larger ones for the weekend. I know I promised you the "Touched by an Angel" special but Joe has one more part to complete so we just decided to wait until that was done. The update I do have for you is really special, it is a series of scans from Candis Magazine (May 2000 Issue) which is a British Charity Magazine. The scans were made by my good friend Hannah of Team England.  One the things discussed in the article is the amazing odds Charlotte overcame on the day she was born.  It's quite an amazing story that touched me deeply for several reasons. Bottom line is if you view just one item from the Magazine Articles make sure this one is it. Next up I have a quick reminder for our UK viewers not to miss the "Brian Conley Show" today . If all goes well we will have pics of this later tonight to show to everyone. I think its been well documented how hectic of a week this has been for me so I'm looking forward to the weekend so I can get a little more sleep and not have to deal with the endless amount of high school exams I have been taking this week on top of everything else.  I am pleased to report to you though that I managed to pull off all A's yet again so there has been some good news for me this week.  Tomorrow should be a big update day if all goes well so stay tuned. Have a great day and bless you all,  -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, today I have a cool update for all the viewers who haven't had a chance to see Charlotte's music video for "Just Wave Hello" yet. Thanks to Dave's help we now have a whole set of screen captures from the "Just Wave Hello" they are extremely beautiful. I can't say enough about the actual video but until we can capture it in video format these make a great substitute. Next up I have a new post in the News section that's small enough to tell you here. As you may know Charlotte taped her Oprah Winfrey Show segment today with Amanda Dunbar and after she finally headed for the UK thus capping off one of the greatest promotional tours ever for a classical artist in the USA. She has some more appearances planned  for the UK so check the Media Appearances page for the latest. Next up we have two new additions to the CharlotteChurch.net Affiliate Network first up is our new Swiss Affiliate run by Ben and second is the site simply titled Amazing! run by Ashley. You can access these sites through the pull down menu or by clicking the Affiliate Network logo and visiting the Affiliate Network homepage.

That about does it for the updates today, tomorrow I have a special segment about the "Touched by an Angel" appearance prepared by Joe complete with videos for your enjoyment. Finally I have one more word to say about the situation with Sony I mentioned briefly yesterday, currently we are still in negotiations with Sony in order to bring this matter to a resolution that will benefit the fans, CharlotteChurch.net and Sony Corporation. I thank you for all your kind words of encouragement and kindness which have helped me greatly though this trying time. Hopefully this will be resolved soon and we can put this all behind us. Until then, peace be with you, -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, The past few days have been extremely hectic for me as I have again been working hard on exams at school.  Firstly I want to tell you about the updates to the site today then I want to get into something that is very serious that could have implications on what we do here on a daily basis. The first update I have for you is some exclusive pictures of Charlotte on Japanese television. These were sent to me by Tomoyuki from a Television show that aired in March. Next up is the update to the news section mentioning that Charlotte will be on Oprah , May 1st. She is taping the show today with her friend Amanda Dunbar. They will both be featured in the "Remembering your Spirit" segment where they will talk about friendship or so I'm told. Stay tuned here for more information on this and hopefully we will have some captures after the show airs.

Now on to the struggle that we face...yesterday Sony contacted me and told me that we were violating copyright laws by posting official pictures of Charlotte on our site.  Unfortunately if you look around you'll see that some of these pics appear in our logo and at the top of the page so removing these would be next to impossible without redesigning the entire site over again.  As of right now we are trying to negotiate with Sony in order to work something out but as of yet the future is uncertain. I want you all to know though that I wont let this sidetrack me and if anything this will give me inspiration to make the site even better. Everyday we continue to hit new records in terms of visits and we are currently enjoying our greatest success ever so its just unfortunate that something like this has to come up to try and spoil it all.  I think you all know that I and the rest of the staff here are dedicated to bringing you the absolute best and nothing will stop us from achieving that goal. Ok, that's where this stands now, I will keep you updated as it develops. I can only wish you all the best today and I ask you to pray for both me and the site as we need all the help we can get now.  Peace be with you, -  Mark

Good Day Charlotte Fans, It's time to start up a new week yet again as we head into our second month of operation. As always, we like to start the week with the Weekly Features and this week's special feature is the second part of last week's highlighting the events of Charlotte's April 2000 USA Press Tour during it's second week. Inside this feature you will find the schedule for week II which was last week along with pictures from all the major events including the two television commercials she starred in. Next up are the Media Features of the Week, this week we have a special picture from a South African Magazine for the Media Photo of the week, courtesy of Claude, and a older but interesting news clip about the Ford commercial for the Media Story of the week.  Next up is an update to the Wallpaper section with a new Wallpaper Pack designed by CharlotteChurch.net viewers Paul Sloan and Vikki Wall, its very unique so you might want to take a peek at it in the Wallpaper Section

In other news I continue to work down my list of E-mails so please be patient, if you sent me anything chances are it will be responded to in the next couple of days. I even have some staff members which I haven't had a chance to get back to due to the massive amount of e-mail that I received. The past two weeks have been insanely busy for the site and we haven't had much time to work on special feature articles as we have in the past and instead we have been acting as a kind of CNN for the community but hopefully as everything settles down this week we will be able to get some of those type of articles out to you. I also want to announce the latest addition to our staff , Yuuki who will be joining Team USA. Yuuki brought us the Guiness World Book of Records Picture and he has been helpful to me during the past several weeks. Tomorrow we will be working on getting some more video added to the Video Downloads section particularly some from "Touched by an Angel" which many of you have inquired about. I wish you the best of days today and I will hopefully see you tomorrow with another large update. Peace be with you,  -  Mark

Hello again Charlotte Fans, I've finally returned from my 3 day trip and I'm ready to start another exciting week at CharlotteChurch.net. Today I have a nice little update for you in preparation for our big wrap up of the week's events later tonight.  Firstly, I want to thank all of you for visiting as we finally passed the 100,000 visitor mark while I was gone. Secondly, I would like to thank my great staff for keeping me up to date while I was gone, I feel as if I haven't missed anything. Ok, lets go on to the updates. First we have some exclusive photos of Charlotte performing at the Dove Awards. I captured these today when the show was broadcast on my station. If you are interested in finding out when it will be broadcast in your area please visit the Media Events Page and scroll down to the Dove Awards where there will be a link to the schedule. Next up we have another set of new pictures courtesy of Dave this time they are of Charlotte's Appearance on NBC's Later.  These are much higher quality than the previous pictures of the "Later" show so go check them out along with all the other Television Photos in the Television Photo Archive. I've also put up several updates on the News Page regarding information on how you can view the Dove Awards on the internet as well as the SonicNet.com Commercials. Late tonight I will post the big update that will include the new features of the week along with some new pics from the Target Commercial again courtesy of Dave who has been really helpful to me lately in providing some great video captures. Until then have a peaceful day and look for the update late tonight. -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, this will be my last update until Saturday as I'm leaving to go on my trip at 10:00 this morning. I do have some news for you though regarding Charlotte's many appearances yesterday however. 

Charlotte got to spend a good deal of time with her friend  and brilliant artist Amanda Dunbar promoting Amanda's new book, "Guided by Angels" in New York Today. They started out with a Press Conference at FAO Schwartz and then spent the rest of the day at Oprah's Oxygen Network where they appeared on "Trackers".  That's all the news we have on this for now but stay tuned for more as it becomes available. You can purchase Amanda's brilliant book here!

In addition to this we also have the latest captures from the television appearances today namely the Entertainment Tonight Pictures and "Later Show" Pictures. Please note however that we will be making new "Later Show" pictures this week so you should see those on Saturday due to the lower quality of the current ones.  I also have posted some great new pictures from the rebroadcast of "Touched by an Angel" which was on Sunday. I would like to thank Dave for all his tireless efforts in getting out Television Pictures site back in world class shape. 

Next up is some news from out UK Sister Site, it seems that Simon the webmaster there has created a little quiz entitled "So you think you know Charlotte Church?" Simon isn't ruling out a prize for the first person to correctly navigate this quiz so I would try it out today. To access Simon's site select the UK Sister site in the pull down menu above. 

I have so many items to attend to when I get back it will be a miracle if I will be able to get them done before next weekend is over but I will try my best. I will also have plenty of High School Physics to finish over the weekend so this should be interesting to say the least! Luckily I'm young enough to have this kind of energy so it shouldn't be a problem. I will see you all back here Saturday night when I should have some Dove Awards screen caps completed, please check the media events page for the listings of the times when the Dove Awards will be on in your area. Well that's all I really can say about today, this will be the first time I wont answer e-mail or work on this page since January so it will be quite hard to give it up for three days but I know that I need the rest desperately. Its been next to impossible to keep up the pace that I have run the site at during the past 3 weeks, and I can count on one hand the hours of sleep that I have had in the past two days during this busy week for Charlotte. I really would like to wish Charlotte the best the rest of the week and I would like to wish you, my viewers the best as well and if all goes well I'll be back here Saturday night with a whole bunch of updates, peace be with you, -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans,  by all indications today is Charlotte's Busiest day in the USA so far in her entire career. To coincide with this we are releasing our largest update in our history today as well. In addition to having all the events listed we have made a multitude of updates for your viewing pleasure. First lets get to the news since that's what's most important then I'll follow up that with the updates that we have made.

Now, on to the updates...First up is the News and Media Appearances sites which have been updated with the up to the minute news, the Media Appearances Site now has every scheduled appearance well into May so check it out.

Hello Charlotte Fans, Welcome to yet another week! Every time I think we may have reached a peak in excitement more news comes along and proves me wrong. In other words this week will be just as exciting if not more exciting than last week.  First lets get to the updates though and as always we have the new features of the week. The Weekly Feature this week is a recap of the events of last week so that you can check out all the content we have archived from her tour at a glance.  We expect to be adding to this so stay tuned.  There are also a new Media Feature and Media Photo of the week available in the Media Features Section. Now on to some exciting news. I have received word that Charlotte will be appearing with Amanda Dunbar, one of the world's youngest up and coming artists, in New York Tuesday to promote Amanda's new book "Guided by Angels". I have the full details along with a link to where you can preorder this book in the News Section. I would like to thank Amanda's Dad for sending me the heads up on this one, hopefully we will be able to bring you more exclusive information about this in the coming week.  Speaking of the coming week , I will be gone Wednesday, Thursday and Friday on a school trip so if you don't see updates that is why. I promise you though that I will have one very massive one on Saturday to keep you all up to date.  Also remember that Tuesday is the Live Charlotte Chat on SonicNet as advertised by the banner above so please attend and put a good word in for us! Like I said before I also won't be able to attend that event due to a scholarship ceremony but hopefully I'll be there in spirit :) Also before I forget to mention it, we will have some captures from Charlotte's Appearance on "Touched By An Angel" later tonight or early tomorrow along with pictures from "The View" interview which Charlotte did Today. Ok friends, that's all for now, have a great day and come back soon. -  Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, Today Charlotte is performing live in San Francisco at the "Heroes of the Earth" concert at the Nob Hill Masonic Centre.

However, I do have some other updates that will be of interest of you today.  First up is a new contribution to the Art Gallery from Lourdes, it is a beautiful new picture she drew of Charlotte. I suggest you go check it out! Next up is a scan from Charlotte's Appearance in the Guinness Book of World Records you can find this in the Magazine Archive even though it isn't a magazine, to my knowledge its the first book Charlotte has appeared in but please correct me if I'm wrong. I fixed the problematic link in the Television Photos Archive that didn't allow you to access the "Tonight Show" Pictures so go take a look at those great captures if you haven't already. Also you probably have noticed the little banner up there that takes you to SonicNet where Charlotte will be having a live chat session on Tuesday at 7:00 PM EDT.

Good morning Charlotte Fans, well its about 2:30 am here and I witnessed Charlotte perform yet another brilliant Television appearance. Of course I'm talking about the Jay Leno Appearance which aired early this morning. We are pleased to present to you the first pics of this show to appear anywhere on the internet! You can see them in our Photo Archive. As for some details of the performance, Charlotte sang "The Last Rose of Summer" which happens to be my favourite so I was really happy for that. She looked great as always as you will find out in the photos. I will be making a transcript tomorrow so everyone can read what the interview went like. Basically Charlotte again mentioned her love of Egyptian History and her reading of a 1000 page book on the topic. Everyone seemed to be impressed by her (as always) so I'm looking forward to more visitors today and tomorrow. 

I also have another exciting bit of news for you! Charlotte will be participating in a live online chat on SonicNet.com , Tuesday, April 18th at 7:00 EDT. I hope everyone of you will be able to attend.  I unfortunately will be unable to due to a scholarship ceremony that I must attend.  Read more about this in the News Section. Also the date for the broadcast of the San Francisco Concert tomorrow has been confirmed for May 20th not May 7th so I have made those adjustments as well on the News and Events Pages. Alright friends, I'm very exhausted after such a long day and I must be getting to bed now, I have a big physics test tomorrow so I want to do well on it. I will see you all later tonight, until then best wishes,  - Mark

Good Day Charlotte Fans, It's really early in the morning here but I have some exciting updates for you that should hold your interest until you get a chance to see the update late tonight from "Jay Leno". First up we have some new pics in the Ohio Feature section of Charlotte at the gala in Columbus, one of them is yet another exclusive pic from David Tanner and another is from the Columbus Dispatch.  I also added the official review from the Columbus Dispatch to the News Archives section and the Ohio Feature page. Next I updated the news and media appearances sections to reflect the latest schedule changes regarding the A&E broadcast and the SonicNet Television Advertisement. Finally I have a really special treat for you all courtesy of Wales Correspondant, Daza. He sent me in this exclusive pic of Charlotte's Birthplace, St. David's Hospital.  I have made it the second installment in the "Spotlight on Wales" section so go check it out in features. That's it for today, I'll be back later tonight to upload the pics from Jay Leno so stay tuned for those if you happen to miss the show or are viewing us from ouside of the United States. If you do live in the states however check it out since I think it will be a charming performance as always. Peace be with you, - Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, today's update consists of yet more news about Charlotte's momentous trip to the United States. First off Rick spotted an appearance that we failed to mention on Saturday. Charlotte performed Sunday at the Kennedy Centre in Washington D.C. Apparently this concert wasn't taped so it wont be shown on Television unfortunately. You can read more about it in the news section. Next up Charlotte performed last night in Columbus Ohio for the annual gala , From what I have heard it was excellent. I did receive this exclusive pic of Charlotte at the Columbus Symphony Orchestra Gala from David Tanner who was so kind to send this to me. Please stay tuned to the news or the Ohio feature for further content on this event. Next up I have updated the news archives section for you with the latest stories out of Ohio. They are very interesting reading. In one of them Charlotte is asked about her current interests and she tells about her penchant for Egyptian History. Quite interesting if I do say so myself. You can read all of them in the News Archives or the Ohio Feature. I'd like to thank  Steve, Jason and Rick for keeping me up today as well as Dave who has been providing us with in-depth media research to give you all the latest television times and appearances. That's it for today, tomorrow Charlotte will be on Jay Leno so watch out for that show which promises to be brilliant. I'm still trying to get some captures of Charlotte's Target commercial but so far, no luck. Stay tuned though. Peace be with you,   - Mark

Good Morning Charlotte Fans, I've been working through the night to get the latest on Charlotte here in the USA for all of you, there are many events to run through yet again but first let me get to the event that occurred today and that was Charlotte's CD Signing in Columbus, Ohio. To tell you the truth this one slipped past us somehow but I think we can make up for it with some Exclusive Pics of Charlotte in Ohio! Ok, now that I got your attention:) I'd like to thank Gene Rodriguez for sending these in just 45 minutes after the event ended as well as allowing us all to view his beautiful family. Now that's what I call up to the minute news! Hopefully we'll continue to get submissions like this as the week moves on. Speaking of this week lets look at the revised schedule followed by a little discussion of what has changed.

Also of note is the broadcast of the April 15 concert in San Francisco on A&E.  To keep you connected with the latest news I've added the news menu on the news pages for quick access to News, Media Events and Site updates.  I hope I got all the dates right but if I didn't you know where to reach me.  So in short go to the Charlotte News to find all the raw information and eventually when we get some real content it will show up as a feature. Overall this looks to be the busiest week for the site in history and I'm looking forward to making a big impact this week with all the new and old fans that will be visiting. Finally I'd like to thank three guys who have made all this up to date news possible: Rick, Steve, and Dave. You guys truly show dedication and class through all your work! That's it for today, hopefully I'll have some pics of Charlotte in her new Target Commercial and even more late breaking news for everyone. Peace be with you,  - Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, Today marks a new era for CharlotteChurch.net with the announcement of our merger with the oldest Charlotte site in history, Geocities.com/CharlotteChurch.  Adam who ran geocities.com/CharlotteChurch will be our new Co-Founder and Senior Editor. I can't tell you what a pleasure it will be to have him as part of the management of this site. I truly have always looked up to Adam as the father of the online community and it will be such a pleasure as we work together to integrate his site into CharlotteChurch.net. In addition of the geocities.com/charlottechurch property CharlotteChurch.net will become the official sponsor of the Charlotte Church e-group. For you the viewers this will mean more content and more in-depth coverage of Charlotte around the world as we strive towards our ever lasting goal of perfection in Charlotte Church coverage online. You can read all about our merger in the formal announcement that also happens to be our feature of the week. 

   Not to overshadow our big announcement,  but I also have several updates to the site for you after taking a couple days off to compete this merger and to recover from being ill. First up is our media features of the week, which are all brand new as always to start the week off go check them out in the features section. Also new for you today is some great news for our US viewers regarding future appearances by Charlotte in the USA. Charlotte will be on Jay Leno on the 13th followed up by a live concert appearance in San Francisco on April 15th. You can read all about this in our News Section. I also got a hold of some pics of Charlotte's single cd "Just Wave Hello" from Lourdes of Team USA and I have posted them in the Official Photos Section. Speaking of "Just Wave Hello" , Ford has once again started to run their commercial featuring that great song on both CNBC and MSNBC, I also suspect it will be on CBS tonight during the live TV movie that's sponsored by Ford. If you haven't seen this commercial yet , I suggest you look out for it because you never know when it might never be played again. You also probably have noticed that this is the topic of our poll this week so tell us if you have or have not seen this commercial yet.  One final note I have for you regards Charlotte's Official Site, Sony added a new Shockwave front end to the site and I was lucky enough to be on right when they uploaded it. I must say it's pretty and impressive so you might want to check it out. Unfortunately as of the last time I checked nothing else had been updated and no mention was there about Charlotte's future appearances so for the time being we are the source for all the latest news. Thats it my friends, a really busy day but an exciting one at that, the next step in our future was taken today and I can't wait to see what's next! In peace,  - Mark

Good Day Charlotte Fans, Today despite feeling a little under the weather, I bring you several updates for your enjoyment. First up is a new contribution to our Art Gallery in the Literature Section it is a great poem written by Adam who lives in England (not to be confused with Adam of Team England).  Not only is Adam a great all around guy but he is also a brilliant poet. Next up I have a new story sent into me by Jason of Team USA. You can find it in the News Archives, this story gets into some interesting perspectives on Charlotte's ability to balance everything in life specifically being a world wide opera star and a superlative student. I also found some older pics from People Magazine that I have placed in the photo archive they are of Charlotte's appearance at Prince Charles 50th Birthday party where she sung one of my favourites "Men of Harlech". Finally today I also added our newest affiliate that being Roeland's new page which incidentally also becomes our Dutch Sister Site. You can access this site through the pull down menu on the homepage. Well friends, thats it for today, I hope to be feeling a little better tomorrow so I can build up my strength for a weekend of updates. Best wishes, - Mark

Hello again Charlotte Fans, Today has been so busy for me and its only 1 hour old so far. I did manage to bring you an update however albeit a small one. I have for you the transcript from Charlotte's Appearance on the television show Faustao in Brazil. Clarissa of our Brazilian Team was kind enough to give this to me. It's a very interesting interview indeed and it really shows Charlotte's global appeal. One of the more interesting questions is the one where Faustao asks about what would happen to her singing career if Charlotte should meet her prince one day. To find the answer look for this article in the features section.  I also added some more info about the Dove Awards in the news section including a link to where you can win tickets to the show as well as the syndicated television schedule. Sorry for the small update my friends, I promise I'll make it up to you however with a big announcement at the end of the week. I don't want to give away too much but it will definitely be a positive for all our viewers new and old. Thanks for visiting, and peace be with you.   - Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans, Wow what a day! After taking one night off I come back with several updates and some exciting news. First lets get to the updates. As many of you know Charlotte appeared on ITV on Sunday night in the UK. We were the first to announce this appearance and the Charlotte Church .net network is the first to bring you the pics along with an exclusive review. You can find all this in the Features Section. I would like to thank all the members of Team England for coming together to make this a reality. Simon wrote the feature story and contributed some pics as did Adam and Stephen. Next I have a really great series of pics in the Magazine Photos section of Charlotte's trip to Australia in Hello Magazine. Included are some rare pics of Charlotte while she celebrated her birthday in Australia. I also have some news about some upcoming Charlotte appearances. The first one will be in the USA when Charlotte performs at the Gospel Music Dove Awards. The second will be in Ireland where Charlotte will perform with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. You can find the full details of these events in the News Section. That's really all there is as far as updates go today. We have plenty of more where those came from I'm pleased to report. This week is shaping up to be one of the most exciting yet, as I'll will be making a major announcement regarding the future of the site later in the week. I'll be back tomorrow with some Brazilian updates and whatever else I can fit in. Have a great day Charlotte Fans, Peace be with you. - Mark

Hello Charlotte Fans! Welcome to a new week, as always we have the new features of the week for you today. Lets start out with the Weekly Feature. This week we are proud to announce the grand opening of the CharlotteChurch.net Art Gallery.  This gallery will serve as the centre for all the visual and literary artistic contributions we receive from our viewers and staff. Right now there are only a couple of contributions in the Art Gallery but we will be adding to it as the week and the month goes on.  I'd like to thank Lourdes and Jason for helping me get this project off the ground and for their continued contributions to the Art Gallery look for more great pictures from those two in the future.  Now on to the Media Features of the week, I have an article about Charlotte complete with some rare pics that most of you haven't seen yet, those two items cover the Media Picture of the Week and the Media Story of the Week so be sure to check them out. I also have did some updating to the Musical Downloads section to add three new MIDI selections by Jake. I would also like to thank Manveer for helping to obtain the scores to create these MIDI's. These new MIDIs in the Musical Downloads Section will be marked with a NEW so check them out! Finally, those of you living in the UK please remember to catch Charlotte on ITV at 18:30. We should have some pics from the show this week as well.  I'm going to be taking the rest of the day off my friends since I have been non-stop pretty much since last Monday, if you have e-mailed me something look for it on Monday if you don't receive it back today.  Happy Mothering Sunday everyone and I'll see you back here tomorrow. Peace be with you.- Mark

Welcome to April Charlotte Fans!  As always I'm really excited about the prospects this month holds for the site but we'll take it one step at a time. Today I have some news and an update.  Let's start out with the news. If you live in the U.S. you probably either taped or watched Charlotte on Regis and Kathy Lee today. Even though it was a rerun I'm sure most of you didn't mind getting to see her on television again. You can find the pics of this appearance in the Television Photo Archive if you happened to miss it.  Also in the news department I told you yesterday about a new ad campaign that Charlotte is going to be involved with, well you can find the full details on the Current News Page which has also been redesigned for easier viewing.  As for today's update I have finally completed the Video Archive which will serve as our starting point to build a complete video library of Charlotte's Television appearances.  Right now I'm working to get the weekly features complete and I'm also building a new poll for the week. I'd like to thank everyone for voting in this weeks poll however because you have really showed your support for Charlotte and her 3rd album which I now hear is due to come out in 4 to 5 months. Like I said earlier we have a torrent of new items to add but rather than bombard everyone with huge updates we'll take it one step at a time.  I hope this month will be just as successful as last month and I can't wait till May when we'll be getting ready for our special Classical Brits coverage. Until then I'll see you all back here tomorrow for the new features of the week.  Best Wishes! - Mark
