Girls Aloud

Girls Aloud are a UK girl group that were created on the ITV1 talent show Popstars: The Rivals in 2002. The group, consisting of Cheryl Cole, Nadine Coyle, Sarah Harding, Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh have been successful in achieving a string of 20 consecutive UK Top 10 singles (including four number ones and four number twos), two UK number one albums, and having been nominated for four BRIT Awards, winning Best Single in 2009 for "The Promise".

Girls Aloud have become one of the few UK reality television acts to achieve continued success, amassing a fortune of £25 million by May 2009.[1] Guinness World Records lists them as "Most Successful Reality TV Group" in the 2007 edition. They also hold the record for "Most Consecutive Top Ten Entries in the UK by a Female Group" in the 2008 edition. In May 2008, the group confirmed that they had begun working on their fifth studio album.[2] The first single from the album, "The Promise", was released in October 2008, followed by the album, Out of Control, on 3 November. Girls Aloud said that it was their "most exciting and thrilling album yet".[3] "The Promise" became their fourth number one on the UK Singles Chart, selling more than 77,000 singles in its first week of release—this made it the fastest selling single of 2008 up to that point.[4] Out of Control followed suit when it entered at number one on the UK Albums Chart.[5] The single returned the group to the top two on the Irish Singles Chart,[6] while the album became their first top ten on the Irish Albums Chart since Sound of the Underground. "The Loving Kind" was released as the album's second single on 12 January 2009.[7] The song, co-written by Pet Shop Boys,[8] became the girls' twentieth consecutive top ten single.[9], charting at number ten.

Girls Aloud also performed at the BRIT Awards for the first time in their careers in 2009. They were nominated for Best British Group and Best British Single ("The Promise").[10] They won the award for Best Single, their first ever BRIT Award but lost out to Elbow for Best British Group.[11] The Out of Control Tour is scheduled to commence in April, and Girls Aloud will support Coldplay at Wembley Stadium on 18 September 2009.[12]

In February 2009, it was announced that Girls Aloud had signed a new record deal with Fascination which will see the group release another three albums, with the next album being released in Autumn 2010.[13] Girls Aloud are also set to release Out of Control in continental Europe in the near future, with a television advertisement tie-in in Germany.[14]

"Untouchable" was the third single from the album. The song was released in April to coincide with the Out of Control Tour,[15] and peaked at number 11 in the UK Singles Chart.

In April 2009, it was announced that a singles boxset collection would be released. The boxset contains all 21 singles (making up 150 tracks and 13 hours of music), 16 videos, 8 games, an exclusive rarities disc and a 64 page booklet featuring the story behind the music.[16] Sarah Harding announced in July 2009 on Alan Carr: Chatty Man that the girls are taking a break from music to concentrate on solo projects. She also announced the band aren't splitting and that they will release a new album in late 2010.

Despite many split rumours Girls Aloud have denied these allegations. They stated that although they are currently working on solo projects this will co-exist with being in the band and with the new record deal signed they will be recording a minimum of three more albums. In saying this they have assured the fans that they will be back in the studio and a new album will be released in 2010.[17]

Non-musical activities

Film and television

In 2005, Girls Aloud filmed a one-off documentary entitled Girls Aloud: Home Truths for ITV2. The group witnessed the group's first tour, the release of their single "Long Hot Summer", and recording sessions for the group's third studio album Chemistry. The success of the show later made way for Off the Record, a six-part fly on the wall documentary series for E4. The program started its run on 11 April 2006. The series was filmed during the Chemistry era and focused on the band's promotional activities, including the shooting of the "Biology" video and the lead-up to and aftermath of the release of "Whole Lotta History". It also showed the band travelling abroad, to places such as Greece, Paris, Shanghai and Australia. A DVD of the series, which included an unaired episode, was released on 4 September 2006. Girls Aloud then appeared in an episode of Ghosthunting with... (without Nadine) towards the end of 2006, in which Yvette Fielding guided them through haunted locations.[18]

In April 2007, Girls Aloud filmed a cameo appearance in the new St. Trinian's movie, playing the school band. The film was released in the UK on 21 December 2007, with Girls Aloud providing two songs for the movie's original soundtrack. The Girls also make a cameo appearance in the Oasis documentary, Lord Don't Slow Me Down. The girl group starred in a new television series on ITV2, Passions of Girls Aloud, broadcast from 14 March to 4 April 2008.[19][20] The premise of the show involves each member achieving something that they have always wanted to do.[21] It was reported on the 13 November 2007 that Nadine would not be taking part, due to the programme's bosses refusing to let her undertake charity work.[22]

Cheryl Cole became a judge on The X Factor during its fifth series, replacing Sharon Osborne.[23] Cheryl said that "whilst we get started on the next album, it will be brilliant to be a judge on The X Factor."[24] Her fellow judge Louis Walsh was a judge on Popstars: The Rivals and formerly managed Girls Aloud. Cheryl's category on the X Factor was the 14 to 24 Girls, and her act Alexandra Burke made it to the final, and eventually won. Girls Aloud appeared in a variety show entitled The Girls Aloud Party. The show aired on 13 December 2008 on ITV, between The X Factor finale and its results show.[25] Girls Aloud performed hits and revealed their Christmas single, as well chatting to showbiz pals and performing comic sketches.[25] Cilla Black and Julie Goodyear appeared as Nicola Roberts' grandmother and Sarah Harding's mother, respectively, in some of the sketches.[26] Kimberley and Nicola also made a cameo appearance in the family drama show Britannia High.[27] Sarah has starred in the television film Bad Day as Jade Jennings and starred in a BBC film called Freefall in 2009.

Girls Aloud have reportedly looked at film scripts. Kimberley Walsh said "We want it to be a Friends and Sex and the City kind of thing, all morphed into one," while Nicola Roberts added: "We'd really like the chance to do some more acting. We've been given a lot of dodgy scripts — they were all awful."[28]

Merchandise and sponsorship deals

Girls Aloud came together with Mattel in 2005 to produce Fashion Fever Barbies. Each member designed the outfit and look of a doll modeled after themselves. In addition to live DVDs of their tours and both of Girls Aloud's television series, the group has also released Girls on Film and Style. Official calendars have also been issued annually from 2004 to 2009, the only exception being 2005. Girls Aloud co-wrote an autobiography titled Dreams That Glitter – Our Story.[29] The book, named after a lyric in "Call the Shots", was published in October 2008 through the Transworld imprint Bantam Press.[30][31] Before the release, OK! magazine bought the rights to preview and serialise the book.[32][33]

In 2007, Girls Aloud signed a £1.25m one-year deal to endorse hair care brand Sunsilk.[34] The girls filmed a television advertisement and appeared in and magazine advertisements, with each of the five members being the face of a different shampoo. The same year, Girls Aloud also sealed a deal with the UK division of Samsung. They endorsed mobile phones and MP3 players, made personal appearances and sang at Samsung events, and contributed to competition prizes, among other activities.[35] The Samsung F210 Purple came with a 1GB memory card featuring Girls Aloud content.[36] Girls Aloud appeared in television advertisements for Nintendo DS the following year.[37] The girl group signed a deal to front a promotional campaign for a new low-calorie KitKat bar called "Senses" in March 2008. The chocolate bar manufacturer also sponsored Girls Aloud's Tangled Up Tour.[38] The exact worth of the endorsement is unknown, but a figure of £500,000 each has been suggested.[39] Sales increased 6.8% in the United Kingdom.[40]

Obscenity case

A landmark obscenity case was brought before the British courts in 2009, involving a story published online centering on the band.[41] Believed to have been the first use of the Obscene Publications Act for written material since 1991,[41] a guilty verdict could have had a significant impact on the future regulation of the Internet in the UK.[41] In the fictional tale, all five of the female members of Girls Aloud are sexually abused and murdered.[41][42][43] The case was dismissed on 29 June, 2009, as the prosecution offered no evidence.[44]
