The Desert Sun
February 9th, 2002
New
Zealand is way hot. First, NZ-born director
Peter Jackson brought the massive “Lord
of the Rings” production to be helmed
in his homeland, and the box-office bonanza
has spurred mad interest in the beautiful
country.
Now, New Zealand’s 14-year-old songbird
Hayley Westenra is poised to carry up on
the worldwide charts, after having gone triple
platinum in New Zealand in a matter of weeks.
The kind of people who predict such things
call her “the next Charlotte Church.”
We think she and Aaron Carter, if ever they
were to hook up, could easily be the new
Britney and Justin.
Tonight’s 8 o’clock performance
at the McCallum Theatre, 73-000 Fred Waring
Drive in Palm Desert, marks her North America
debut.
Tickets run between $25 and $65.
