bittersweet if true. on one hand, i will always die for more girls aloud. but on the other, of course, is sarah is no longer here 😭

I'm curious - are any of them considered successful solo acts? I don't live in the UK so I can't tell. Cheryl was, I assume, right? but was she ever as big as the band was? I know Nadine sold her album exclusively at Tesco, idk if that translated to sales though lol

I had a soft spot for Nicola and wish she had released another album, but alas

Im pretty sure Cheryl’s was successful, she released the most albums and had hits. FFTL went #1 in the UK iirc.

cheryl had a few successful albums but then like a lot of uk exclusive pop acts, interest in her music career cratered and she hasn't released anything (singles or albums) since 2019 which if we're being honest is probably a big reason why this hypothetical reunion is happening and frankly i am celebrating that cause her solo music was never *as* good as the group's

everybody else has been varying levels of "famous on name recognition but not enough for them to have viable solo careers in music" like sarah won celebrity big brother, nicola won masked singer uk, nadine was on drag race uk etc

yeah I never found Cheryl's pop music particularly intriguing, but by god was she churning out albums for a while there but this post led me to realize I hadn't actually heard about her in a long time lol

If they tour I’m going to London for it.
