BeautyPro Was born 10 Year’s Ago... But What Else Was Happening 10 Year’s Ago?

As we celebrate 10 years of BeautyPro this month, we wanted to take a look back on what else was happening this time 10 years ago. We all love a little throwback right?

2010 only seems like yesterday and maybe some of these might jog your memory of that iconic year! Keep reading for some nostalgia...

So, 2010 was definitely the year of some top hits. Katy Perry’s California Gurls Album dropped onto the charts and you’d be lying if you said you didn’t enjoy those singles! We were all living a teenage dream right...

Other songs that were on the billboard hot singles of 2010 were:

• Tik Tok - Kesha... This single spent 9 consecutive weeks at number 1. If only we knew what Tik Tok would be in 2020!
• Rihanna - Only Girl In The World. Rihanna had 4 singles in the top 50 this year!
• Paparazzi - Lady Gaga. She also had 4 singles in the top 50 too in 2010!

The year of the girls!

Whilst we are on the subject of music, no year is the same without The X Factor on your screens. 2010 was the year of Matt Cardle, who was crowned the XFactor Winner this year and beat One Direction. Which also means... 2010 was the year that One Direction was created! Who is a directioner here? There’s no denying that they have made some truly catchy songs, and continue to be great solo too.

On another note... ( See what we did there?)
Announced in January of 2020 and launched in April was the first-ever Apple Ipad. This was the device that made tablets a thing! A little chunkier and heavier than they are today, the first Ipad was Apple’s in between of an iPhone and a MacBook.

There was plenty more happening in 2010, and we have listed them below:

• Cadbury was taken over by American rival Kraft Foods
• A cloud of volcanic ash from in Iceland caused the closure of airspace over the UK and Europe
• Spain win the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa
• A Picasso painting sells for a record-breaking $106.5 million at a Christie's auction.
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 hit theaters.
• The British Grand Prix at Silverstone is won by Mark Webber with Lewis Hamilton in second place

 

10 years later, we were hit with a global pandemic, but, the nation pulled through and we worked together. We are more grateful than ever and look forward to the next 10 years of BeautyPro, we can’t wait to look back on 2020 one day.
