YOUNG yo-yo star Will Ford was in a spin this week with the news he is to be one of the faces of a national advertising campaign.
After a search that has spanned 49 different locations across the UK and seen more than 5,000 children audition, Robinson’s Fruit Shoot today (Friday) announced the 13 year old, from Shanklin, will be one of the four skilled youngsters who will star as the 2010 Juice Crew.
The talented quartet are now set to showcase their skills in the new Fruit Shoot TV advert that will first air on GMTV2 on Monday.
'Yo-Yo Will’ wowed the British public to earn a coveted place in Fruit Shoot’s 2010 Juice Crew.
He joins 'Switch Foot Schaeffer’, a six-year-old skateboarder from Bristol, 'B-Boy Kid Karam’, a 12-year-old break-dancer from Derby, and 'Olivia, The Edge’, a 12-year-old diver, from Hemel Hempstead.
The diverse foursome first impressed the 2009 Juice Crew with their video auditions to make the final 13, before going on to win over the nation’s hearts when the voting was opened to the public.
"We are so excited to be the 2010 Juice Crew," said Will.
"I couldn’t believe it when I first heard I had won alongside the other members. As soon as I met the others, I knew that we would work well together, even though our skills are so different.
"We all bring something different to the Juice Crew and can’t wait to see the advert on TV!"
