Pop Idol
finalist Roxanne Cooper and Big Brother contestant Dan Brian
have been lined up to appear at the 91热爆 Children in Need 25th anniversary
concert in Hull.
The pair will be performing songs at the gig in West Park on Anlaby
Road on 19 November 2004 alongside girl group Ttorria, organisers
confirmed today.
And three more big name acts are set to be announced in the next few
weeks, as well as who will be hosting the event.
Roxanne, who came sixth in the second series of Pop Idol, said: "I'm
really excited about the Children in Need concert 聳 it'll be great
to play to such a big crowd in my home town.
"I'm planning to play three exclusive tracks from my new album
which I have been recording over the last year with Hull-based producer,
Gary Miller. We're hoping the record will be released in the New Year."
Roxanne also revealed she has been working with the writer behind Kylie's
smash hit Can't Get You Out Of My Head on some of the songs on the album.
"We've not yet decided which songs we'll play from the CD. But
as it's Children in Need I'll do my best to put on a great show for
everyone."
Hull musician Dan, who finished third in the last series of Big Brother,
will be treating fans to three songs with his long-running band Icehouse.

I came out of the Big Brother household. I wanted that first concert
to be in my hometown.

of Children in Need, which is one of the best causes there is. So come
