Well done everybody

Today's Daily Mail has some pictures of Amelle Heidi & Jade shooting a video for the Sugababes song 'About A Girl'. You can see them here.

It's hard to look at those pho­to­graphs and not wonder what the people who were instru­mental in Sugababes' early days — and even their more recent days — think of the pictures. Never mind what the Sugababes (Mutya, Siobhan and Keisha) think — we mean the people who worked on 'One Touch' as an album and as a campaign at London Records, then those who saw something great about the band and signed them to Island, and we mean all those talented stylists over the years who so effect­ively worked with the band's per­son­al­it­ies to ensure that the band, very naturally, were sexy but soph­ist­ic­ated. We mean the man­age­ment team who helped them along at the start and still work with them today. All those people who did such a brilliant job of making sure the Sugababes had a little bit more class than the others. Is this what they had in mind?

As one Popjustice reader on Twitter put it, "let's not forget the
Sugababes once had a go at Girls Aloud for appar­ently 'taking their
clothes off to sell records'. Oh how times change".
