2. Connell & Courtney made their way to the VERY beautiful & funky Rivers Church in Morningside Sandton, where they chatted to some of their youth group members in the 'Kids Zone' about GOSSIP!!

First some make-up, (it's not like they need it)...

Yes, Guys wear make-up...for TV that is.

 3. In the meantime, Jasmine (from the USA) chatted about her life & singing career, as well as her take on Gossip...



4. Back home in SA, Courtney Jonas asked Connell Cruise what Gossip means to him, then decided it would be a good idea for South Africa to get to know her talented co-presenter better, and to see for herself just what he can do with his incredible passion for singing and piano.

Smile for the camera!

Connell Cruise confidently jumped on the 'iShine All Starz SA' stage at Urban Brew Studios in Randburg, to perform a track titled 'So Small', a song that HE wrote about God's incredible power and might in his life.

Soon, this song will be found on Connell's debut album that he is currently in the process of recording!

Lights, Camera & Action!



The feedback that we got from viewers is that they had 'goosebumps' from watching him sing his heart out to God. This is what the experienced music journalist, Kerry-Anne Faller, had to say about it: Review of 'So Small'
