Who were the original Sugababes members and where are they now? ...Middle East

NEVER in the history of pop has a band had as many line-up changes as the Sugababes.

Over the years there have been several different singers making up the trio but the group is set to headline Brighton Pride, alongside Mariah Carey, this summer. Here we take a look at who the original babes are.

Who were the original Sugababes members?

Siobhán Donaghy, Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan – 1998 to 2001 and 2022 to present

The Sugababes were formed in 1998 by All Saints manager Ron Tom.

Siobhán Donaghy and Mutya Buena, both aged just 13, had been signed as solo artists, but decided to work together after performing at the same showcase.

While working in the studio, Mutya invited her best friend Keisha Buchanan to watch them and she was picked to join them.

Originally called the Sugababies, the group’s name was tweaked to Sugababes when they were signed by London Records, to give the group a more mature image.

The group’s debut single, Overload, went to number six in 2000 and was nominated for a Brit Award and they released debut album One Touch.

However, during a Japanese promotional tour in 2001, Siobhán left the group.

She stated initially that she wanted to pursue a fashion career, but was eventually diagnosed with depression.

The band then got back together in 2022 and have remained the original threesome ever since.

After the shock of Siobhán’s departure, Mutya and Keisha decided to carry on and add a new bandmate – enter Heidi Range.

Their first single Freak Like Me scored the group their first UK No1 single and they followed suit with their next single Round, Round.

The new formation was a big hit and they had THREE top ten albums together, numerous hit singles and even sang on the Band Aid 20 single.

But things didn’t last.

Keisha Buchanan, Heidi Range and Amelle Berrabah – 2005 to 2009

Right we have ANOTHER line-up.

In 2005 Mutya quit the band to pursue a solo career – enter Amelle Berrabah.

The new threesome had a HUGE hit with their song About You Now – and to date this is their highest-selling single.

They toured and released their top ten album Catfights And Spotlights.

They also teamed up with Girls Aloud for Comic Relief single Walk This Way.

But again – change was on the horizon.

Heidi Range Amelle Berrabah and Jade Ewen – 2009 to 2011

The Babes were hit another blow when the only original band member, Keisha, quit the group in 2009.

Fans were distraught – with no more originals left, would the Sugababes continue?

The answer was yes – enter Eurovision star Jade Ewen.

Unfortunately this line-up didn’t set the world on fire and the girls decided to officially call it quits in 2011.
