JLS star Marvin Humes claims that Scots DJ Calvin Harris still hasn’t forgotten the time that he and the band made him cancel his gig after they were mobbed by fans. Marvin who urged Scots to support bandmate JB Gill on Strictly as he played a Dj at Ingliston Country Club in Bishopton, Renfrewshire, admits Calvin still reminds him of his disappointment when he sees him. He explained: “When we first left the X Factor, we did the Christmas lights in Birmingham. We went on first, and there were about 15,000 people. They were only expecting about 5000 people, and there was a massive crowd surge, and the group got cancelled, and Calvin Harris was going on after us. And obviously the whole gig got pulled. Whenever I bump into Calvin now, in London or wherever, he always remembers it and tells me ‘Yeah, I was just about to get on stage, but the gig got canceled.’Luckily it got shut down and luckily no one got hurt, but it was basically for health and safety. He still loves us though and we’ve been lucky enough to do some tracks with him. Id love to work with him again, especially the stuff that I do now, for myself. I'm doing a lot dance and house music.”Marvin, who is back together with JLS and has done two arena tours recently, said his last Scots gig at Edinburgh Castle was a bit scary too. He said: “We did Edinburgh Castle this summer, which is amazing. It just about didn’t happen though because the weather was really bad even though it was in July. The winds were like 20 miles an hour, so it nearly got cancelled. The speakers were blowing and I think if it was 25 miles an hour, they would have had to cancel the gig. It was freezing, but everyone loved it. During his gig at the lavish Ingliston Country Club, just twenty minutes from Glasgow, Marvin played a host of hits from the noughties and even included some JLS tracks. He said of his trip: “This place is amazing. When I was booked I didn’t know what I was coming to but it’s incredible. I’ve had a look round at the horses and the RV park and even enjoyed a steak in the restaurant. I’d love to come back again next year.”
Exclusive Beverley Lyons ROCHELLE and Marvin Humes ended up celebrating their eighth wedding anniversary by snuggling in their hotel room watching Pretty Woman in ‘rainy’ Glasgow after they had to make a BBC Scotland TV show here. The couple were unrecognisable as they wore masks to cross Bells Bridge and posed in front of the city’s Armadillo and squinty Bridge as they made their way back to their hotel from the BBC building where they’ve been recording episodes of The Hit List. Pregnant Rochelle had spent the day managing to bathe her weary feet in a bubbling foot spa in between shows. Wearing a mask printed with Rochelle’s face on it as he walked, Marvin joked: “Hi guys it’s Roche here on her anniversary.”He added: “So usually we’d be somewhere like Ibiza on our anniversary celebrating but we are here taking a lovely stroll in the rain and wind, but this is it, this is it, isn’t it, it’s real, you know what I mean?”Rochelle added: “Listen you’ve got to take the good with the bad babe - that’s marriage.”Posting an Instagram picture of herself and Marvin eating mango and tangerines in the rain on the the bridge Rochelle later wrote: “What are we doing tonight for our Wedding Anniversary I hear you ask. We have just wrapped and are off to our room for snacks. Rock and Roll.”
Later on she posted a video of a shirtless Marvin lying in bed eating organic seaweed crisps and watching Pretty Woman on their laptop with the message: “This I why I love you.”Marvin, who was clearly in a romantic mood also wrote: “Eight years ago today I married the woman of my dreams..we said I do in beautiful settings surrounded by our loved ones..I’m so proud of us for every year since that day..we have two beautiful girls and a baby boy on the way..I couldn’t wish for anything more..you have given me everything I could ever want and more Rochelle Humes today is about our love and celebrating the vows we took and we meant every single word..you complete me and I will love you forever..ok gushing post over lol..I can’t wait for tomorrow and everyday for the rest of our lives..Happy Anniversary Mrs Humes..my soul mate.”
