Title: Celtic Woman facts Post by: ShiningBright on May 22, 2014, 01:51AM Our CWs wear lots of different dresses. But 25 of them are white. That's quite a lot, isn't it?
Deirdre, Lynn, Méav and Órlagh are former members of Anúna and knew each other before CW. Lisa L was a member of John McGlynn's band Sweet June. Make's her a half Anúna member. Lisa Lambe is the only Celtic Woman that has brown eyes. We have 9 Celtic babies - three girls and six boys. CW had many line up changes, but Chloe still managed to stay the youngest CW. more will follow (I don't have the time at the moment) Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Kimberly AJ on May 22, 2014, 02:34PM I know some more. Some CW members officially picked some Disney songs to sing like Chloe did "Someday" from The Hunchback Of Notre Dame. We first watched it when we were little girls.
Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Eric90 on June 03, 2014, 03:13PM Chloe's middle name is Alexandra not really an unknown fact though it's on her wikipedia page I don't know how I overlooked it lol
and I love the songs Lisa Lambe did with Sweet June they sounded great! Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: ShiningBright on August 09, 2014, 05:41PM There are actually Celtic Woman travesty shows - or in other words: CW are REALLY famous.
Méav got the green ceili dress from Deirdre. Alex wore Lisa's white and green dresses for the ANJ tour. Lynn got Méav's purple ACC dress. She also got Hayley's white and golden dresses for the ANJ tour. They were made smaller for her. The golden dress was also made shorter for Mai C, so it went through at least two changes. Lisa Lambe got Alex' white and blue SFTH dresses and Lynn's black dress. Deirdre Shannon is the tallest CW member, she filled in for Méav. Méav and the other two girls who filled in for her (Hayley and Lynn) are also the tallest CWuties. Mái N and Mai C do not only share their names, they are also the two shortest CW members. Deirdre's last name is not really Shannon, but Gilsean. Órla's name is actually Órlagh. And Mairéad C was actually born as Máiréad C. Hayley went through some hard times (I don't want to explain them more, but I guess most of you know what I'm talking about) but her time with CW helped her a lot! Lisa K, Lisa L, Alex, Méav and Susan have a background in musical theatre. Méav's and Órlagh's musical careers were heavily influenced by nuns :D Alex was in the chorus of the Evita movie with Madonna. I will post more tomorrow... Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Emer Dreamer on August 09, 2014, 06:15PM Some pretty cool stuff Chiara...especially the part where Meav was wearing a dress given to her by Deirdre. They are good friends, though. Also, I believe, Roisin Dempsey-a former choir member -is also a friend of Meav's and is married to Nicky Bailey. It's no surprise, then, that Nicky was encouraged to be part of Meav's recording accompanists for her "The Calling'" promo video. It is fun to see how different elements of Celtic Cutiedom seem to be connected in many ways. :)
Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: ShiningBright on August 10, 2014, 03:52AM Yes, Méav, Órlagh and Deirdre have been together with Anúna. All three of them are friends!
Alex and Lisa L used to play in a play together... Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Kimberly AJ on August 10, 2014, 05:23AM Wait a minute. I realized that Méav, Órla and Deirdre are also mothers. Not to forget Lisa K.

That's right Kimberly... and add one more Alex . ;) Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Eric90 on August 10, 2014, 10:43AM I think Lisa L and Chloe were in a Choir Together when they were kids, There was a pic of them somewhere I've been looking for it but I can't find it for the life of me, it'd be great if someone could find it.
speaking of Chloe I heard She wears odd (mismatched) socks lol Title: Re: Celtic Woman facts Post by: Eric90 on August 13, 2014, 03:53PM And I just found out today that Lisa Lambe is left handed

Also, she is a fan of Andrew Lloyd Webber. Hayley and Alex have worked with him. This year they will be in one of his theatres. I'm sure the Lord LW will watch them ;)
