From the archive 161 -2002-

Dame Shirley Bassey and Gabrielle took a break from rehearsels for Safeway Picnic 2002 concert in Hyde park to help plant a tree which was dedicated to them in their upcoming performance for the Prince’s trust. With rehearsels well underway Dame Shirley Bassey and Gabrielle attended the cerimonial planting of a tree, dedicated to all the performers in honour of their participation in the charity concert. Both singers admitted they don’t have green fingers despite being thrilled of having a tree dedicated to them. Other people who have received the honour include Queen Elizabeth, Diana Princess of Wales, Pavarotti, James Coburn and Ava Gardner.

  1. PIETER, YOU HAVE REALLY OUTDONE YOURSELF AGAIN…WHAT LOVELY PICTURES OF DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY AND GABRIEL. DAME SHIRLEY LOOKED SO NICE AND HAPPY. I HAD A HAT LIKE THE ONE DAME SHIRLEY IS WEARING BUT MISPLACED IT SOMEWHERE ON AN OVERNIGHT TRIP. WELL DAME SHIRLEY IS IN GOOD COMPANY WITH SUCH WELL KNOWN, AND LOVED PERSONALITIES SUCH AS PAVAROTTI, JAMES COBURN, AND THE LATE GREAT ACTRESS AVA GARDNER. PIETER OR ANYONE ON THE BLOG…WHO IS THIS YOUNG LADY GABRIEL?

  2. Gabrielle is a British singer, had a great hit with ‘Rise’ in 1998 or 1999 I believe. I even think I own that CD 🙂
