Diversity will dance for British Red Cross

Put on your dancing shoes and get over to Petersfield for an exciting dance event backed by Britain's Got Talent winners, dance group Diversity.
Dance for Life is in aid of the humanitarian work of the British Red Cross. There are four events taking part in Hampshire including one at Festive Hall, Petersfield.

It takes place on June 17, 2010.
Dance for Life brings together schools, colleges, dance and youth groups in local communities in a celebration of youth dance. This exciting opportunity opens up dance as a medium to overcome cultural, social and physical barriers, giving pupils the chance to perform and celebrate with their friends, family and school. The British Red Cross makes dance accessible to all those aged 18 and under, regardless of ability. Young performers can enjoy dancing while raising money for the world’s largest humanitarian network.
Groups are invited to choreograph a dance routine that reflects an aspect of the Red Cross’ work, such as our life-saving work in the UK and abroad. Dance for Life co-ordinators are available to help with any ideas.
Pupils get the chance to work in their local communities on exciting fundraising activities, while also gaining essential life skills through a choice of humanitarian action teaching resources.
Dance for Life is part of Youth Dance England’s national U.Dance programme, which aims to give every child and young person in England the opportunity to take part in a dance performance each year.

Talent stars Diversity put fans in the picture

25 November 2009 - HUNDREDS of competition winners turned out to be snapped with the winners of Britain's Got Talent television show
Security officers at The Glades shopping centre in Bromley ensured no unwanted fans made it through the barriers to dance group Diversity, who appeared at Head music store last Thursday evening.
The 11-member ensemble, who were watched by 18 million people in the final of the ITV show, met youngsters from Bromley Deaf Children's Society before chatting with fans who had entered a competition to have their photograph taken with them. Group choreographer Ashley Banjo said: "It's great to be back in Bromley. We always get a good crowd when we come here."
Nana Boaitey, 15, who was queuing up, said: "It's unbelievable. They all have something about them, they have everything. They have such nice personalities.
"They must be so tired because they are all such hard workers but look at them: they are laughing and joking with everyone. The best looking is Ashley but they are all amazing."
Her sister, Akosua Boaitey, 12, who has 848 photographs of the group on her laptop, said: "Ashley is a really good choreographer and really good looking. When we found out we won we were screaming."
On top of the £100,000 they won for beating favourite Susan Boyle on the ITV show, Diversity are due to meet the Queen when they dance at the Royal Variety Performance in Blackpool's Opera House on December 7 as part of their prize.
Frontman Ashley Banjo added: "We are looking forward to it. It's the main prize so it will be good to actually do it."
Meanwhile Beckenham-born DJ Talent, who appeared alongside Diversity on Britain's Got Talent, has revealed he is backing runner-up Susan Boyle for the Christmas number one.
The gold-toothed rapper, whose real name is Anthony Ghosh, believes the Scottish singer nicknamed SuBo will hit the top spot over the festive period with her debut album I Dreamed a Dream.
He said: "Susan started out like me as a contestant on Britain's Got Talent now she is one of the most famous people on the planet. Susan Boyle is a normal person with a basic lifestyle but she has the voice of an angel.
"I will be backing SuBo for number one this Christmas. I wish her all the best in the future. She is going to be a successful artist.

Diversity Won Britain's Got Talent

Susan Boyle's dream of winning Britain's Got Talent remained just that. With bookies offering odds of 10-11 that she would clinch victory over the show's strongest-ever field, last night's climax was supposed to belong to the 48-year-old Scottish spinster who has become a global phenomenon. But when results of the final public vote were announced, Diversity, a youthful 10-member dance group from Essex, had pushed her into second place, in front of a TV audience of up to 20 million.
Standing a few paces away from them as the result was announced, Boyle was magnanimous in defeat: "The best people won. They are really entertaining. Lads, I wish you all the best."
Diversity, which includes three sets of brothers, impressed the judges with a frenetic routine which included a cheeky reference to the panel's buzzers. Three members of the multi-ethnic group, which won the £100,000 prize and will perform at the Royal Variety Show, donned red caps to represent the buttons pressed to order acts off the stage.
Stumbling over his words after the win, choreographer Ashley Banjo, 20, said: "I was saying 'guys, second!'. When you said our name – honestly, I'm going to wake up in a minute."

Diversity's mini dance star - Falling Flat

Diversity's mini dance star sobs after falling flat on his face during display for Gordon Brown outside
Street dance group Diversity won Britain's Got Talent by showcasing brilliant modern routines to catchy music that were technically perfect.And young frizzy-haired Perri Luc Kiely stole millions of hearts as he was flung in the air by his friends and signed off the act with an amazing backflip.But the 13-year-old came a cropper last night as he fell flat on his face outside No.10 Downing St performing one of his acrobatic moves in front of Gordon Brown.
The poor lad was in tears and had to be consoled by members of his group and the Prime Minister's wife Sarah.
spokesman for the group said the youngster was 'absolutely fine, just a bit shocked'.It all started off well as the group set about entertaining the PM and the crowd of special guests who'd gathered to watch them perform.They began the routine on chairs, working through their carefully choreographed performance with the energy and professionalism that saw them win BGT earlier in the year.
Backed by thumping dance and RnB music little Perri performed some of the group's more daring manoeuvres, including being thrown both horizontally and vertically - reaching over 12ft in the air at one point.
The group even cheekily recreated the budget, with one member removing his blazer to reveal a shirt with the number 10 on the back, while another member used him as a door emerging with the famous red briefcase.
