Last Week Anastacia joined Ben's Brother frontman Jamie Hartman on the famous This Morning sofa to talk about their collaboration on 'Stalemate' and the connection they felt as vocalists.

The pair then joined the rest of the band onstage to play the single live.

Click here to see the show.

Anastacia's collaboration with Ben's Brother - 'Stalemate' - is out now from iTunes and 7digital.

This Thursday - October 29th - Anastacia will be joining the band on This Morning on ITV1 to perform the song live, so be sure to tune in.

In the meantime, you can watch the amazing video for 'Stalemate' - featuring Anastacia herself - right here.

A new version of the Ben's Brother album 'Battling Giants' featuring the duet with Anastacia is also available from today.

Hi Fan-ily,

In between her busy touring schedule, Anastacia found time to record a track with the amazing London based band Ben's Brother. The song, entitled 'Stalemate', is released on October 25th.

Anastacia was personally approached by Jamie Hartman from the band because he knew the 'little lady with the big voice' would be perfect for the track and the track perfect for her.

Sure enough Anastacia loved 'Stalemate' from her first listen and arranged to meet up with Jamie to see what magic they could work together. You can see some great fly-on-the-wall footage of this first meeting here.

Anastacia says, "I loved the song the moment I heard it and have been thrilled to add my vocals and have the opportunity to work with Jamie."

Regular listeners of Radio 2 and BBC Scotland will be getting plenty of chances to hear 'Stalemate' as both stations have just playlisted the song.

And make sure you tune into This Morning on ITV1 on Wednesday October 28th, when Anastacia will be joing Ben's Brother to perform the song live.

Watch the amazing video for 'Stalemate' - of course featuring Anastacia - right now by clicking here.

You can pre-order you copy of 'Stalemate' from 7Digital, it comes backed by a demo version of the song.

A new version of the Ben's Brother album 'Battling Giants' featuring this special duet with Anastacia is released on 26th October.

See you soon!

Hi Fan-ily.....

This is a very overdue message!!!! We purchased a new flip video after a very generous fan gave us a beautiful camcorder to use which unfortunately was not Mac friendly...Now we have a minor challenge with the Flip as it requires some upgraded downloads sooooo my desire to have tons of videos for you this week has not been able to happen....I do have two small videos of me,Chaka ans Lulu on our first day of press last Tuesday...

I wanted to express, even though there aren't enough words to say how amazing the tour was for me!!!! I enjoyed every single second of the tour!!! I love playing smaller venues because it made me feel closer to each and everyone of you!!! The many fans who came to a large number of shows and that I would see so often in the front row, I thank you for your generosity!!! I knoe this is a tough time economically for all of us and I don't take it for granted the sacrifices many of you made to come to one show let alone multiple ones!!!

I missed performing and I deeply grateful for the loyalty you guys showed in the large gap in between tours!!! I have so many beautiful letters I've been reading over the past week, some beautiful framed pictures that await me back in LA and special gifts that overwhelm me and make my heart so full of love for each and everyone of you!!!!

As you all know, I am doing a concert/cabaret show with the amazing Chaka Khan and Lulu!!!! I am so excited!!!! To be able to stand on stage for a total of 20 shows with these to amazing icons of musical history is such an honor......We are all very excited to be singing cover songs that each of us have secretly longed to be able to sing......This show will be an amazing, fun party like atmosphere!!! We want everyone standing, dancing and singing along!!! We are sure to make you laugh lots and may even draw a tear or two......I hear that ticket sales are going fast so the tour may be sold out by mid week....

I promise you some video blogs once we can solve our technical challenges!!!!!!!

Peace to you all and see you on the road soon!!!

Hi fan-ily!!

Anastacia is just about to finish her 2009 tour this weekend with the last show date being in Kiev. Its been a fantastic experience on the road and everyone has loved the show!! Thanks to all of you that caught any of our shows!

As Anastacia doesn’t ever relax for too long... we are super excited to announce a fantastic new project that she is proud to be part of.

“Here Come the Girls” is a new show that features three international singing superstar legends; Lulu, Chaka Khan and Anastacia. Add glitz, glamour, half naked men and non-stop hits and what do you get? A foot stomping, high octane, tongue-in-cheek, musical extravaganza that will guarantee you’ll be dancing down the aisles. Cocktails in hand, music blaring and conversation flowing, the show will see the girls sing and dance to their favourite songs from the 60s right the way through to the noughties. With hits including “Shout”, “Respect”, “Lady Marmalade”, “It’s Raining Men” and “Bootylicious” its the ultimate, fantabulous Girls Night Out!

From Anastacia herself:

“I'm super excited to be part of Here Come the Girls. It’s going to be such a fun show with tons of surprises and fabulous music. I’ve long been an admirer of both Lulu and Chaka Khan so its a dream come true to be touring with them and to be part of a show as unique and special as this.”

Hi Fan-ily

I thought I would share some of the travel we have to do....The whole crew had to fly back from the gig in Cork,Ireland which I have to say was one of the most fun shows so far!!! The audience were so energetic and my dance off partner from the audience gave me some heavy competition!!!!

hope you get a laugh from my attempt at being camera woman....a rare sighting of my sister as she much prefers being behind the camera...

ENJOY!!!
