The Original Sugababes Reunion Rumors Continue

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 denied the earlier ones. The Sun newspaper is claiming that the reunion is gathering pace, with PR guru Claire Powell now on board to ensure the project is a success. This is the woman who turned Jordan into Katie Price so she clearly knows what she’s doing.

A record label source reportedly said:

“The comeback is gathering momentum. Mutya had a lot of convincing to do to get the girls around the table to sort things out. That happened last week and they are all game to give it a go.”

“The other girls are delighted to be back in touch. They are bang up for it with the new management team. They are now looking for a record deal and have started planning for a big launch next year.”

This could be true or it could be absolute hokum. It should be noted that The Sun claimed that the Led Zeppelin reunion was back on when it clearly wasn’t.

Part of me wants to see this happen; it would be nice to see the original line-up back together and set up an almighty bitch fight in the charts next year between the original Sugababes and the New Sugababes. But another part of me thinks it could only end in tears. I guess we’ll have to wait and see if anything official is announced.
