10/01/2014 Newsround

Hello, I'm Martin, with your Friday afternoon Newsround. Coming up: Find

out why Jessica Ennis-Hill will be missing the Commonwealth Games.

And we meet the pop star set to be massive in 2014.

She was one of the stars of the London Olympics, but we won't see

gold winning heptathlete Jessica Ennis-Hill in this summer's

Commonwealth Games. She's had to pull out, because she's having a

baby. Jess said her pregnancy is "unexpected and exciting", but

she'll be back to "go for a second gold at the Rio Olympics."

Jessica became the face of London 2012, winning gold in the

heptathlon. And fans were banking on her to win gold at the Commonwealth

Games too. Now the pressure is on for Britain's Katarina

Johnson-Thompson to fill Jess's running shoes, and go for glory in

Glasgow. Next - immigration. It's a subject

that divides opinion, with most people now wanting changes to the

rules for letting new people into the country. Immigration, especially

from Romania and Bulgaria, is big news right now. At the start of the

year, people from those Eastern European countries gained the right

to work in the UK with no restrictions. Ayshah's been looking

into it. Here at this school in Boston in

Lincolnshire in East England, 65% of kids don't have English as their

first language. Most people in the UK want less immigration. A recent

survey found that nearly eight out of ten people want a cut in the

numbers coming in. Some are worried about pressure on housing, jobs and

schools. If we have a number of children who require places who come

from Romania and Bulgaria, we would love to give them a place, but we

are full. One person in every ten in this town is from Eastern Europe. In

2004, people from countries like Poland, Lithuania and Latvia made

Boston their home. After the European Union, which groups

together 28 countries including the UK, said they could live wherever

they wanted to. These children came over a few years ago. It has it been

like for them? Kind of difficult, because a lot of English children

were coming up to me and saying things in English, and I did not

understand them, so I just walked away because I did not get what they

said. They came to England and I did not understand any words in

English, so I got better in English so I would get friends. Now

Romanians and Bulgarians have the same right to live and work in the

UK with no restrictions. This Romanian girl has been living here

since she was five years old. What are some of the negative stereotypes

you have heard about Romanians? Just that they are all poor people who

want to take away everything the British have, like their jobs and

their way of living. How does that make you feel? I don't like it,

because they should not make assumptions before they get to know

the Romanian people. We don't know how many Romanians and Bulgarians

will come to the UK. Here in Boston, as well as the rest of the country,

they will have to wait and see if their town will change again.

Now - here's a Newsround quiz. What have these pop superstars got in

common? Adele, Ellie Goulding and Jessie J? Well, before they hit mega

stardom, they all won the BBC's Sound of the Year Award, which has

helped launch the careers of some of the most successful British artists.

Now it's the turn of this guy, Sam Smith. You might not have heard of

in 2014. Let's have a listen. in 2014. Let's have a listen.

# Lay me by your side. Sam has already worked with other artists

like Naughty Boy and Disclosure, but he wants to be a success in his own

right too. 2014 has been written for me already, I guess. I have got the

Brits to look forward to and my album, and it is going to be

incredible. My mum is calling up every day, making sure my head is

still screwed on. I just want to have as much fun as I can and work

really hard, because I have big dreams and aspirations. I just want

to smash it. But I also want to enjoy it.

And if you love music, head to the Newsround website for my interview

with Jessie J from the Brit Awards nominations party. I chat to her

best mate, Ellie Goulding, too. And you can also see a full list of all

the nominations. Also on the website - how cool is

this - a driverless car that even parks itself! Check it out, I'm back

at 6.50. Have a great afternoon. Bye!
