As you may know, we have been trying to “Get Hollie Steel a Record Deal” for a little while now, and it seems our wishes may have been answered as Rolf Harris has expressed an interest in singing a duet with the little songstress.

Hollie Steel attended the Bryan Adams “Hear The World Ambassadors” Exhibition on July 21st
Hollie Steel attended the Bryan Adams “Hear The World Ambassadors” Exhibition on July 21st at the Saatchi Gallery in London. She looked very grown-up and positively regal in a white dress with a net underskirt, tiara, silver cross body handbag and golden shoes.
The exhibition contains photos of celebrities taken by Bryan Adams, the musician/photographer, to raise awareness of the importance of being able to hear properly, and the impact hearing loss can cause to an individual.
Many famous musicians have been photographed for the exhibition, including Mick Jagger, Amy Winehouse, Annie Lenox and Joss Stone, each in an image featuring a conscious pose of “hearing.”
Thanks again to Kevin for keeping me informed.
Hollie Steel in Bournemouth on July 5th, 2009
Scott has been kind enough to upload some really good quality videos of Hollie Steel singing “Edelweiss” and “I Could Have Danced All Night” at Bournemouth on July 5th 2009.
Update: The original video of “I Could Have Danced All Night” at Bournemouth has been replaced with Scott’s new high definition one, which he has been kind enough to upload.
His videos are of such a high quality that I have been able to take some nice stills from them to add to this article.

Hollie Steel and Rolf Harris Duet on the Cards?
Rolf Harris, who is now an amazing 79 years old, has previously had top 10 hits with Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport; Two Little Boys and Stairway To Heaven; although my own favourite is Jake the Peg which was voted the fourth best Australian song of all time.
Hollie’s mum Nina Steel, told the Daily Mirror: “We have just heard that Rolf wants to do a single with her.
“It’s a new song that Rolf has written about a grandfather and granddaughter. Obviously, we’re delighted. Hollie would love to record an album, so we really hope this will lead to other things.
“Hollie is a big fan of Rolf, especially when he was doing Animal Hospital.”
The Lancashire Telegraph has furnished a few more details about the song. Written by Rolf, it is called “Opa Jaki”.
Nina said: “It is a very sweet song and we are definitely going to go for it. We are just waiting for the music to come though so she can learn her part.
“This offer from Rolf Harris would be a good opportunity for Hollie and may help her to keep a high profile. We have been contacted by people from all over the world wondering and asking when she is going to do a CD and the support we have had from the public has been great.”
My thanks to Kevin for bringing this story to my attention.
Hollie says “Thank you for the videos!”
Hollie Steel has added a message on the site, which I’m reproducing here so you don’t miss it:
