Ricki heading to the UK in April!

Ricki-Lee Coulter is planning an all-out British assault, with plans for a major promotional tour to the UK.
"There's a very big chance of me going overseas - it's going to be a really exciting year," Coulter says. "I'm also going to think about writing a new album while I'm overseas."
But before she heads to Britain in April to capitalise on her signing to the Ministry of Sound label, Coulter will appear as part of a massive Australia Day Concert in Canberra.
The show, scheduled for Friday night (ahead of Australia Day on Saturday) is the annual, official show staged on the lawns of Parliament House. It has grown in size over the past few years to the point where this year it has some of Australia's best-known artists, including Coulter, the Veronicas, Ben Lee, Thirsty Merc and Katie Noonan.
Coulter, who was born in New Zealand, says she's now a proud Aussie when it comes to singing her heart out for her country. But, while much of her success in the pop world has been focused here, Coulter's excitement at her Ministry of Sound signing is hard to contain.
"It's just a huge opportunity," she says. "I worked really, really damn hard in 2007 and I definitely will be this year as well. There's so much on the horizon."
Coulter, who departed Young Divas (somewhat wisely, in my opinion) says she was pleased to have broken out of the Australian Idol mould, particularly in relation to female artists from the show.
"I have broken the barrier a little bit. I haven't done what everyone else has done," she says. "I went independent, it's very different. We don't have the huge budgets that everyone else does but we work really, really, really hard."
Coulter's fervent work ethic is set to continue in what she hopes will be her biggest year yet.
"I'm really loving the path that I'm on at the moment and I wouldn't turn back for the world," she says.
