Fabulous Magazine Exclusive Article with The Sugababes - Out Saturday
Our super sweet cover stars this week are the gorgeous Sugababes. Their 13 years as controversial chart-topping pop princesses have been characterised by spats, squabbles and the odd headline-grabbing sacking. But despite not having a single original member in the line-up these days, the girls are back following an extended break and insist they're stronger than ever.
Longest-serving Babe Heidi Range describes the moment she came face to face with ex-bandmate Keisha Buchanan for the first time since she was kicked out of the band.
“There were hugs and tears, but I’ve made my peace," she said.
And she revealed the moment boyfriend Dave Berry proposed, long after she'd given up hope that he'd ever pop the question.
“I was in my Pyjamas and covered in fake tan...it was perfect just the two of us at home when I least expected it.”
Newest member Jade Ewen talks about her break-up with EastEnders star Ricky Norwood for the first time, blaming the couples' clashing schedules for driving them apart.
She also admits she's often questioned her decision to join the band given the backlash from Keisha diehards which accompanied her arrival.
"Nothing could have prepared me for that...I've grown a thicker skin over the last couple of years. I've had to."
And Amelle discusses her recent weight loss, confiding that the stress of life in Britain's most interchangeable pop band had caused her to pile the pounds on in the first place.
"Looking back it's almost like it happened to someone else. I was so low."
But she adds that today she's never felt better.
"I feel reinvigorated. I try not to have any regrets...I wouldn't change a damn thing."
Except, perhaps, that conviction last week for assault, Amelle...
The Sugababes rock up in skin-tight dresses to Children In Need event
Pop goes the zipper? The Sugababes rock up in skin-tight dresses to Children In Need event

The trio have been spotted out in some particularly saucy outfits recently.
From latex ensembles at G-A-Y to clingy crop tops at Sainsbury's Super Saturday, the Sugababes have left no holes barred in showing that they still have what it takes to get pulses racing.
And the girls didn't tone it down when they turned up to the cast reception for Pop Goes The Musical to support Children In Need.
Heidi Range, 28, Amelle Berrabah, 27, and Jade Ewen, 23 all poured themselves into figure hugging dresses for the party, which took place at Haymarket's Mint Leaf in London.
Heidi was the most modest of the threesome, with her polka dot dress covering a lot more flesh than that of either Amelle or Jade.
And unlike her bandmates she wore tights as a nod to the chillier September weather.
Individual style: The girls sported very different looks, with longest-serving band member Heii opting for a more modest polka-dot dress
Jade however managed to pull off her more revealing outfit, smoking in a daring blue velvet cutaway dress, which showed off her long toned legs, and gave a glimpse of her taut abs.
But Amelle's one-shoulder leather number was less of a success, with odd wavy edging and short sleeve combining to rather messy effect.
All three completed their looks with hot red lips and smokey eyes.
Voulez Vous! The group looked fabulous in flares for their performance of Mamma Mia! at the Prince of Wales Theatre yesterday
Baring all: Jade wore a sexy velvet cutaway dress, however Amelle's odd leather number didn't work as well
The event was also attended by fellow cast members Dionne Bromfield, Peter Andre, Melanie C, and Stacey Solomon.
The stars are performing songs from hit musicals MAMMA MIA!, GHOST, WICKED and We Will Rock You to raise money for Children In Need.
Earlier that day, the 'babes gave a special one-off show of Mamma Mia at the Prince of Wales Theatre for the charity.
Abba heart: Proceeds from the girls' performance will go to Children in Need
Perhaps judiciously they adapted their look slightly for the occasion, though Amelle still bared some skin in a cropped vest and hot pants when they turned up to the theatre.
Perhaps her racier look was a reflection of her enthusiastic mood, as she tweeted that morning: 'On my way 2 meet the girls!! Woo hooo! So excited 4 2night!!xxx'
Dancing Queens: The girls took over the stage with their seventies moves
Jade even took to Twitter minutes before the show to update her fans, saying 'In the dressing room @MammaMiaMusical having hair and make up done.. So excited to be performing tonight for children in need! :)'
All three performed in fabulous seventies-style neon costumes, striking theatrical poses as they belted out hits from the musical sensation.
Heidi tweeted after the show: 'Had so much fun performing in Mamma Mia tonight for Children In Need, the whole company and crew where so lovely to us x'
Gimme gimme gimme... any excuse for some neon glamour
It appears things went a little more smoothly for Heidi than during the girls' This Morning performance earlier in the week, after which the 28-year-old took to Twitter to exclaim: 'My shirt popped open in the middle of freedom on This Morning! Had to dance with one arm keeping it together! X'
The Sugababes are currently promoting their new single Freedom, out September 25.
Daywear: Though Jade and Heidi covered up a little more as the girls turned up for a special one-off performance of Mamma Mia, Amelle chose to bare her toned stomach

Fantastic Night Sugababes at Mamma Mia - Pop Goes the Musical
JadeEwen
In the dressing room @MammaMiaMusical having hair and make up done.. So excited to be performing tonight for children in need! :)
Whilst Jade, Amelle and Heidi were having their hair and make up done and getting squeezed into their costumes, I was enjoying a Wonderful performance of Mamma Mia.
Also enjoying the show was Jade's Mum and Dad (Trevor and Carole) and I think Heidi's Sister Hayley was there also.
During the interval in the bar we got mugged by a big yellow Bear with a patch over his eye! No not really Pudsey and his lovely assistants were collecting for Children in Need. They were being videod as were The Sugababes performance and they were doing reaction videos out front of Box Office. One group of girls I am sure will make the edit as they were Mamma Mia'ed up to the eyeballs in hats feathers and glitter, they had a great night !
Thanks for the above photo goes to
After the Brilliant performance of the Sugababes singing Dancing Queen I videod the thank you by Jade with Amelle , Heidi and Pudsey

Sugababes Talk Female Empowerment, People Giving Them A Chance & The New Album

We recently caught up with the Sugababes and girls discussed their new album, controversy around them and Jade's feelings about her input on the new record.
Sugababes and Nuns
Sugababes and Nuns
by Sister Julie on September 13, 2011 J.M.J.A.T.
Hanging out with nuns is pretty cool, I have to say. But don’t take my word for it (I am an aforementioned nun after all). Even a card-carrying member of the British band Sugababes thinks so too!
Singer and songwriter Heidi Range spoke to James Merrit of the Birmingham radio station BRMB and when asked what she would do if she weren’t in a “girl band,” she responded that when she was younger she wanted to “hang out” with nuns.
Have a listen to a clip with her response as well as the responsesof the other Sugababes, Amelle Berrabah (who would be a social worker to help children) and Jade Ewen (who would be a doctor).
Listen to the full interview with the Sugababes (September 7, 2011) on BRMB’s website.
Okay so she may no longer want to be a nun, but hey, that’s okay! I simply appreciate the fact that she mentioned liking the series Brides of Christ (which is truly fabulous) and that that series opened up the possibility in her mind that it would be cool to hang out with nuns. She could have made a crack about nuns (see open letter to Sinéad O’Connor) or capitalized on some ridiculous nun stereotype (see my “find the nun stereotype” quiz), but she didn’t. Thanks, Heidi!
