Nicola Roberts, Sarah Harding, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Cheryl Cole make up Girls Aloud, a UK girl group who were formed from the reality TV show Popstars: The Rivals, in which a girl band was pitted against a boy band in the race for the UK Christmas number one single in 2002. Girls Aloud came out on top, with their debut single ‘Sound Of The Underground’ hitting number one.



Girls Aloud have cemented their position at the top of the heap of today’s pop acts, receiving critical acclaim from every corner of the general music press - tabloids, broadsheets, and music publishings such as NME.

The girls have released four studio albums - ‘Sound Of The Underground’, ‘What Will The Neighbours Say?’, ‘Chemistry’, and ‘Tangled Up’, plus a Greatest Hits compilation, ‘The Sound of Girls Aloud’. Major singles include ‘Sound of the Underground’, ‘Love Machine’, ‘Biology’, ‘Call The Shots’ and ‘Something Kinda Ooooh’.


Girls Aloud are unusual in that their management has never made a major push for them to be successful other than within the UK market, and despite their huge success in the UK, they are relatively unknown elsewhere in the world. A shame, perhaps, for a group Pitchfork Media called one of the two best girl groups of the 21st Century along with Sugababes. Girls Aloud performed a cover of Aerosmith and Run DMC’s ‘Walk This Way’ for Children In Need.
