It’s that point on a Friday when you can’t really be bothered and just want to go home, so why not use up six minutes and 56 seconds of your life watching the new videos from Nicola Roberts and Sugababes.
Nicola’s vid for Lucky Day (which we previewed yesterday) is all multi-coloured and FUN, while the Sugababes, however, have gone for something a bit more sultry, with the vid for Freedom taking place in a sweaty, dimly-lit club. And it’s got some faux-lezzy bits in it too. Crikey.

[FIRST LOOK] Watch New Sugababes Music Video for "Freedom"
British girl trio Sugababes pops back onto the scene and is ready for battle with their glorious comeback tune "Freedom" that will be formally released as a single in Europe in the next few weeks. Get a quick peek at the new "dark" buzz version of the music video after the break.
Sugababes' solid new teaming of Heidi Range, Amelle Berrabah and Jade Ewen has been working feverishly in the studio to lay down new tracks for their new record with the intent to recapture the Sugababes essence of edgy, sexy and melodic vocal pop. Produced by The Invisble Men (who created Jessie J's bareknuckle "Do It Like A Dude" among others) and Parker & James, "Freedom" is a great step forward with its gritty versus and joyous, sunburst chorus that has hit, hit, hit written all over it.
The stylish "dark" music video for "Freedom" is a great reflection of the song's gritty undertones and the trio's fighting spirit. Set in a blue-lit underground club, the ladies work their way through the sweaty dance crowd and take control with their fists in their air. They sing, "Tonight is the night that we break the speed of light. So stand up, come alive, liberate yourself 'cause freedom starts tonight. Stand up!" That's right, folks. Sugababes is back and you better pay attention.
British girl band Sugababes gets sexy - and a little drunk - on the video for their new single 'Freedom'.
The Sugababes is fighting back with a bigger sound and sexier image after the commercial dissapointment of their "Sweet 7" album last year. The trio currently made up of Heidi Range, Amelle Berrabah and Jade Ewen signed a three-album deal with Sony Music a few months ago after parting ways with Island Records, the label that had nurtured the band since their 2002 breakthrough "Angels With Dirty Faces".
'Freedom' is the lead single taken from the Sugababes eighth studio album, which is slated for release later this year. The sexy music video sees Heidi, Amelle and Jade getting sexy with dancers in a dark underground club with some fans calling it out as a modern take on the group's 2001 'Freak Like Me' clip.
The band's newest member Jade revealed in an interview that she got a little drunk beforehand to "loosen up" for the intimate scenes.
"When you've got to do intimate stuff and be all sexy, looking into somebody's eyes who you've only just met five minutes ago - and there's a whole camera crew there - it's really intimidating," she said.
The pint-sized singer admitted that she had taken band member Heidi's suggestion of "a few drinks" a little too literally and downed several shots before commencing their early morning video shoot.
Watch the Sugababes sultry performance in 'Freedom':
Director Sean De Sparengo, who had done videos for Olly Murs' 'Heart On My Sleeve' and Girls Aloud's 'Call The Shots', said the mission with 'Freedom' was to make a video where the Sugababes can feel like they're "on top of their game". The outfits they wear in the video were designed by the same team who had done costumes for Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and the Black Eyed Peas.
Sugababes are still currently recording material for their forthcoming album and have said that 'Freedom' is indicative of the "big vocal" pop sound to come. The band, who has been open about how the line-up change affected the awkward recording of their last album, said that this new record is a "fresh start for everyone".
The trio's new single 'Freedom' will be out in the UK on 25 September.
Paris Hilton, Geri Halliwell and Jessica Biel all have one.
And now Amelle Berrabah has joined the A-list elite by getting a pet pooch.
The Sugababes singer posed with her adorable dog, which appeared to be a long-haired chihuahua, and posted the image on Twitter to her thousands of followers.

In the photograph, the tiny puppy snuggles up on a paw print blanket while his proud owner grins.
Amelle has another reason to celebrate, with the girls releasing their latest video Freedom this week.
The track is their first release since last year, when Wear My Kiss propelled up to No7 on the charts.
While the new single is not released until September 25, the trio have already received the seal of approval from fans after performing it for the first time at this year’s T4 on the Beach.

And Amelle, Heidi Range and Jade Ewen cannot wait to unleash their new material.
They said: 'We’ve enjoyed taking our time in the studio and are excited to be coming back with what we feel is the band’s finest material to date.'
Typically, the girls all look enviably stylish in their new promo shots as they showcase a slightly edgier look with heavy dark make-up and kitsch black costumes.

Amelle has got a new puppy called Herbie ( not sure whether he's named after the Disney car or because she loves Herbs ?). I don't know what breed he is either but with those ears he will definately not be missing a single note of Amelle's Singing , Lucky Dawg !
Another burning question is whether Herbie will be getting his own Twitter Page like Alexandra Burke's Alfie ? Keep your eye out for a new Sugababes fan called Herbie Berrabah !
