I always love reading new articles about Chloe. Much of the information is carried over from one story to the next, but there's usually something new and interesting in the text as well:

"I became involved with Celtic Woman while I was 14, and I turned 15 when we went out on our very first tour — and that's a hard feat, you know, packin' your bags at 15," Agnew said in a recent phone interview.
So true! I've always marvelled at that. Even for someone from a family of performers, travelling without one's mother at that tender age must have been an emotional challenge. Even models who are 15 usually have their mothers join them on their shoots, or overseas campaigns -- and those don't last nearly as long as a CW tour. It's a testament to Chloe's fortitude that she rose to the challenge so admirably.

"We've been very flattered to have been told that Celtic Woman is to the voice what 'Riverdance' was to the feet," Agnew said. "It's been amazing for me. It's been such a journey."
I see her point, but honestly, Celtic Woman is
also to the feet what Riverdance was to the feet! While Riverdance is nice, I'd much rather watch Chloe dance -- as she does so captivatingly during this current Isle of Hope tour -- than Michael Flatley.
