Liberty X's Kevin Simm fears ''the end'' of his career if he fails on 'The Voice'. The 'Just A Little' hitmaker was shocked when all four judges - Paloma Faith, Boy George, will.i.am and Ricky Wilson - turned their chairs for him during the blind auditions but thinks he has got a tough round ahead as he prepares for the battles. He admits: ''It is pushing me to my limit. I put a lot of pressure on myself in these sort of situations because when you're out there trying to prove yourself all over again, it is just tough. I've come in...

A former pop group singer wowed the judges with his performance on 'The Voice' on Saturday night (30.01.16). Kevin Simm found fame as one fifth of Liberty X, who had hits with tracks such as 'Just A Little'. Following the group being dropped by their label, Kevin signed a solo record deal but that also flopped - causing a big knock in confidence. Acknowledging that 'The Voice' was one of his last chances, Kevin said before his performance: ''I've had nightmares about not having any turns!'' But he certainly needn't have worried about that. Just seconds into his rendition of Sia's...

"We've teamed up with our brother Shane from Boyzone, so he's doing it with us.
"It's great, it sounds great. He's on the screen and he's giving it all his Shane-ness."
She continued: "It will be good as well, because he's from the '90s, too. So I think the audience are going to love it.

Michelle Heaton preferred working with Liberty X on 'The Big Reunion' compared to when they started in the 2000s. The 34-year-old singer was reunited with former bandmates Tony Lundon, Kevin Simm, Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young earlier this year for the ITV2 series, which documented their comeback and featured them playing their greatest hits on a show tour, and the brunette beauty loved not having to worry about where their music would chart. She said: ''Getting back together with Liberty X has been awesome. I had such a great time on the tour in May. ''It was even better this...

Atomic Kitten, Liberty X, Blue and the rest of the Big Reunion lineup made their long-awaited return to the stage at a special concert in London last night (February 26).
Along with 5ive, B*Witched, 911 and The Honeyz, the '90s and early '00s pop favourites performed their classic tunes in front of a crowd of thousands at the Hammersmith Apollo.
Michelle Heaton, Jessica Taylor and Kelli Young made perhaps the most eye-catching appearance of the night along with their Liberty X bandmates Kevin Simm and Tony Lundon when they sung 'Just A Little', slipping back into the skintight black Pvc catsuits they first donned 11 years ago with ease.
The performance was particularly poignant for Heaton, who underwent a double mastectomy last November after being told she has a significant chance of developing cancer.
She is also scheduled to undergo major heart surgery that will determine whether she needs a pacemaker.
