The Sugababes are still arguing and in-fighting amongst themselves, but not the girls that are in the group together now, rather the former members. It’s as though Mutya Buena never left the group, judging by her drunken rant about Heidi Range on Twitter last night.

If you know anything of the Sugababes it’s probably the fact that the line-up has changed multiple times, and that the group now doesn’t contain a single original member. Siobhan Donaghy, Mutya Buena, and Keisha Buchanan have all moved on.
I’d like to say there’s no bad blood between the former and current members, but that would …read more

We’re now entering not only a new year but a new decade, with the noughties giving way to the tens. So, as we say goodbye to 2009 and welcome in 2010, it’s time to sum up what we listened to over the last decade.

There must have literally thousands of tracks released over the last decade, but there’s only a relatively small amount that make it past the first few listens and enter or collective consciousness.
Music licensing company, PPL, has compiled the top 50 most played songs of the noughties. The full list is available to view on its Web site, …read more

When Keisha Buchanan left the Sugababes (whether voluntarily or not) in September, it saw the end of the group as we know it, with no original members left. I’m afraid that Heidi Range, Amelle Berrabah, and Jade Ewen are Sugababes by name only. However, the real Sugababes could be on the way back.

Rumors of the original Sugababes line-up reforming first appeared in September before being brought up again at the beginning of November, with a gossip blog reporting that Siobhán Donaghy, Mutya Buena, and Keisha Buchanan were joining forces once again.
And now the rumors have resurfaced, despite the girls having …read more

The UK music charts may mean less now than they used to but they’re still an indicator of what’s hot on the popular British music scene right now. This week’s Top 10 singles and Top 10 albums are listed below.

This week’s singles chart has seen a bit of an upset. The Black Eyed Peas managed to jump from number three to number one with Meet Me Halfway, keeping Leona Lewis off the top spot. I’m guessing Simon Cowell won’t be mentioning this on The X Factor. Last week’s number one JLS dropped to number three and Cheryl Cole dropped to …read more

It’s hard to remember the original line-up of the Sugababes performing together. It all feels so long ago, and it’s a distant memory for me, and probably them too. But there’s a chance that Siobhán Donaghy, Mutya Buena, and Keisha Buchanan are about to reform the group.

As soon as Keisha Buchanan left the Sugababes in September, there were rumors that with the group now being made up of a different trio than that which originally formed way back in 1998 the originals were going to come back together and start all over again.

The last week has seen the Sugababes lose their last original member in the form of Keisha Buchanan, who left after a ruckus with Amelle Berrabah. Eurovision singer Jade Ewen promptly joined the group, leaving her, Amelle, and Heidi Range as the Sugababes, at least in name. But can they really call themselves the Sugababes when none of them helped found the group back in the day?

The Sugababes originally formed way back in 1998, with Buchanan, Mutya Buena, and Siobhan Donaghy teaming up to become the Sugababes. But Donaghy left in 2001, Buena left in 2005, and now Buchanan has …read more

It’s official, although it’s a different member of the Sugababes who is leaving than we all thought. Keisha Buchanan, the last surviving original member of the group, has left to become a solo artist. The Sugababes will continue on with Amelle Berrabah and Heidi Range, who will be joined by Eurovision singer Jade Ewen to keep the group as a trio.

There was, of course, speculation at the end of last week that Amelle was about to leave and be replaced by Ewen, but it seems while the thrust of the story was correct, the departing member wasn’t. The 24-year-old Buchanan …read more

This week’s singles chart sees Taio Cruz go straight in at number one with Break Your Heart, knocking last week’s topper Pixie Lott down to number 6 in the process. Madonna enters at number 3 while Shakira had a massive climber with She Wolf going from 25 to 5. Sugababes manage to stick in the top 10 despite rumors of a …read more

It looks as though the revolving door that is the Sugababes has swung open once again, with reports that Amelle Berrabah has quit, only to be replaced by Jade Ewan. Although yet to be confirmed this would tie in with a reported spat last week which saw Amelle disappear for days, missing a string of public appearances in the process, after a fight with Keisha Buchanan.

In the aftermath of the fight, there were reports Berrabah was preparing to quit. Now, according to Heatworld, it’s actually happened. What’s more, a replacement has already been found in the form of Jade Ewan, …read more
