thedailymirror--2020-07-21--Linda Nolan signs sisters up for genital piercings in The Nolans Go Cruising

The Nolan sisters are finally all reunited for a rip-roaring series of shows on a stunning Mediterranean cruise .
Coleen , Anne , Maureen and Linda filmed their antics on board the MSC Grandiosa for TV show The Nolans Go Cruising .
Despite putting family feuds behind them to embark on their latest musical venture , tensions are still simmering behind the scenes with the famous singing sisters .
Coleen admits that she ’ s feeling the pressure , saying : `` It ’ s not just Anne who has the jitters , we are all so nervous about this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ thousand people on this ship and they are all expecting a top class performance . ''
And things only seem to get worse during rehearsals with them all struggling with the choreography and no one taking charges .
A tense Coleen snaps at Maureen , `` are you just going to do that all the way through ?
” as she clicks and sways to the beat of the music .
Firing back at her sister , Maureen argues the girls are mixing it up more than Coleen is giving them credit for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing quite a bit .
We ’ ve been here many times before , I can feel an argument brewing . ''
But for Coleen arguments during rehearsals with her famous siblings are nothing new .
She explains : `` Most of our arguments in the past have been over choreography .
We all get nervous , we all want to do it right , we all think we know best .
That can often lead to fireworks . ''
Linda adds : `` Sometimes we used to come off stage and it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ screaming at each other and all of that . ''
However , Maureen remains calm and gets to grips with the dance routine by adding a few more steps and the session is soon back on track .
Coleen said : `` Luckily we got through it and everything was fine . ''
When rehearsals are finally over for the day , the girls have a few hours off to visit Marseille .
After exploring the city and enjoying a spot of lunch , Linda whisks Maureen away into the city centre as @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up for her .
Worried , Linda says : `` Please don ’ t feel obliged to say yes or anything it all but , if you ’ re up for it , I have arranged for you to have a tattoo . ''
Maureen is delighted - it 's been her life-long dream to be brave enough to be inked .
At the tattoo parlour , the sisters are greeted by Nathalie and Fabian , the artist who will be working on giving Maureen her first ever tattoo .
But before they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Nathalie has very leftfield proposition for the sisters .
She says : `` We also do genital piercings if you ’ re interested ?
” Maureen jokes : `` Maybe at a later date '' To celebrate her Irish roots , Maureen settles on a small , tasteful shamrock design on the inside of her wrist but when she 's in the chair , nerves begin to get the better of her .
With Linda ’ s encouragement she agrees to go ahead and as Fabian starts inking her skin , Maureen winces @ @ @ @ @ @ @ It is very painful , but at last Fabian is good with his hands .
I ’ ve given birth to a child and that hurt less than this . ''
As Fabian starts shading in the petals , the pain increase , and Maureen can ’ t help but swear and giggle to herself , much to Linda ’ s amusement .
Linda jokes : `` Actually , the blood and green look really good together . ''
After finishing the tattoo Linda and Maureen head back to the ship to meet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ - and Anne ca n't wait to see what their surprise it .
Milking the moment for everything it ’ s worth , Maureen and Linda decide to have a little bit of fun at their sisters ’ expense , pretending that Maureen wimped out off getting the tattoo done .
She says : `` It ’ s taken me 65 years to get this tattoo .
This is a reveal that has to be drawn out.
`` But when she finally shows them her sisters are both shocked - and proud .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ God I ’ m so proud .
Do you know , those two are the best liars I ’ ve ever met , which makes me slightly worried about what else they ’ ve got up their sleeve . ''
Then Linda drops a bombshell and tells Coleen and Anne she has something lined up for them in the city the following day .
She says : `` We ’ ve got you an appointment for when we ’ re next in Marseille , it ’ s unbelievable : genital piercing .
She @ @ @ @ @ @ @ you ’ ll ever have done in your life , sexually . ''
The silence says it all , before Coleen chimes in , saying `` it ’ d be nice to know if there ’ s any life down there '' .
Thankfully , Linda is joking and the sisters get back to the preparations for their triumphant performance .

In September 2018, Katie declared she was "totally loved up" with Alex Adderson, who she started dating after her split with Kris, only to later break up with him and get back with Kris.
A source told The Sun Online: "Katie is telling everyone she's really loved up with Alex.

"She's head over heels and is saying she's much more into Alex than she ever was into Kris. She wants everyone to know that it's all fine between them and can't stop telling people they're in love."
Katie is said to have dumped Kris by text after meeting builder Charles Drury while he was working on her home.
She moved him into her home after one week of dating.
Sources close to the builder told The Sun: "Charles has quit his job and told everyone he's off to stay with Katie and her kids.

"He was bragging that he is going to make a tons of money with a bunch of modelling jobs and was very excited about it.
"He was due back to work today after going to Turkey with Katie, but he's just packed up and gone. He was there for more than 3 years but he sent a text to the boss saying he wasn't coming back."
Katie's representative said: "Katie’s private life has been played out publicly in the past and admittedly Katie would be the first to say has worn her heart on her sleeve.
"This chapter of her life however is very real with that comes credibility of what is apparent a true relationship with a viable future.
"However, no one can predict what lays ahead but is supported wholly by her family and friends who wish her nothing less than the happiness she deserves."

EU leaders have agreed a huge coronavirus recovery deal worth £677 ( €750 ) billion , after five days of heated and bitter talks in Brussels .

She also discussed a period of depression after feeling a sense of failure following her 2017 album Witness and claimed Orlando was her "perfect" partner when she was at her lowest.

Speaking on Howard Stern's SiriusXFM show, Katy said: "I showed him all of it and he still shows up and he's not fazed by it. That's why he's perfect, because I'm a lot."
Katy also opened up on the mental health treatment she and Orlando have had.
She continued: "I actually went to this place called the Hoffman Process, which Orlando went to as well, which is a week-long intensive re-wiring of your neural pathways through psychological and spiritual exercises."

Katy continued: "It's mostly science but it could come off a little hippy-dippy for some people.
"Basically, you just re-wire the negative paths, all the negative habits that you had for so many years, and you don't understand why you keep going through that loop."
Katy has also taken time to show off her burgeoning baby bump as part of a launch of new merchandise to promote her new album, Smile.

She took to Instagram to post two images of herself in a white crop top with the word 'Smile' emblazoned on the front and wearing yellow and red striped short shorts.
Katy proudly displayed her baby bump in the first picture, along with her bleach blonde locks and bright pink lipstick.
The second image sees her don a 'smile cap', while the third and final image shows her wearing a face mask with 'smile' written on it and wearing smiley-face earrings and showing the sleeves of her crop top to have further smiley-faces and her initials of KP.

United were brought back down to earth with a defeat that leaves them with just one chance of silverware, and could force them to invest heavily again this summer
Manchester United’s resurgence in 2020 has been largely down to astute recruitment from the club.
However, defeat to Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final showed that the Red Devils have some way to go in order to be regarded as title contenders.
A lack of depth in key areas of the pitch will be a concern for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who has shown early signs of building a trophy-winning side.
Therefore, they could enter into the transfer market this summer as a means of adding depth and solving some issues that have prevented a consistent 2019/20 campaign.
Here are the latest United transfer rumours on Tuesday July 21.
Chelsea prepared to ‘double wages’ of United goalkeeper

Chelsea are reportedly prepared to double the wages of Manchester United goalkeeper Dean Henderson who is currently on loan at Sheffield United.
According to Manchester Evening News, the 23-year-old’s representatives have been in contact with Chelsea about the possibility of a move and he is believed to be unwilling to play second fiddle to David De Gea next season.
Solskjaer has reiterated throughout this season that De Gea remains world class and part of his plans despite several high profile errors - two of which came against Chelsea in Sunday’s 3-1 defeat.
While United will be keen to prevent Henderson moving to a direct rival, the likelihood of him staying at Old Trafford as second choice remains minimal.

United are reportedly set to make one final offer for Jadon Sancho in the coming weeks as they look to land their number one transfer target.
According to the Daily Star, the club will offer £80million for the England international despite Borussia Dortmund holding out for a fee in the region of £100million.
United’s desire to sign a right winger in the upcoming transfer window has seen Sancho linked with a move on a number of occasions but financial uncertainty means the club isn’t willing to pay more than £80million this summer.
Therefore, a final offer is likely to be tabled and instead leave Dortmund with the ultimate decision on how much they are willing to lower their asking price.
United set to unveil three academy signings
The club will soon announce three new academy signings, according to Manchester Evening News.
United are believed to be waiting for international clearance before they can officially announce the signings of Alvaro Fernandez, Marc Jurado and Isak Hansen-Aaroen who will bolster their academy ranks.
The latter became Tromso’s youngest-ever player at the age of 15 earlier this month and will be joining Fernandez (17) and Jurado (16) at the club’s academy set-up in Carrington.
MEN’s report also states that Jurado rejected a three-year deal from Barcelona and instead decided on a move to United.
