Emotional – Heidi Range

by Kavy on Mar.19, 2010, under Band, Marriage, Singer

Heidi Range is terrified she’ll look a “mess” when she gets married.

The Sugababes singer got engaged to long-term beau Dave Berry on New Year’s Eve (31.12.09) and are planning to wed in October 2011, but the ‘Get Sexy’ star is worried she won’t be able to control her emotions on the big day.

She said: “We’re getting married in October next year on our eight-year anniversary. I’ll just get stressed if we plan a summer wedding and it’s not sunny.

“When I walk down the aisle I’ll probably be shaking and crying but I hope I don’t because I don’t want to look a mess!”

Despite her worries, Heidi is bound to look stunning, especially as renowned wedding dress designer Vera Wang has offered to create her dream gown.

She said: “I haven’t tried any dresses yet but when I did a show in Barbados with the Sugababes, Vera Wang’s daughter came up to me and said, ‘My mum was at the concert and she’d love to make you a wedding dress.’ I nearly passed out, I’ve always dreamt of a Vera Wang wedding dress!”

The Sugababes Are Happy With Their Present Bandmates

Heidi Range

The pop trio – whose only remaining founding member Keisha left in September and was swiftly replaced by Jade Ewen – have had to deal with allegations from fans that Keisha was unfairly ousted, but Heidi says things in the group have never been better since Keisha departed.

The ‘About A Girl’ singer said: “It’s such a difference, we don’t dread coming to work any more! We laugh all the time now.”

Bandmate Amelle Berrabah – who checked into a private clinic in Austria for three weeks in October to be treated for “severe nervous exhaustion” – also insisted she, Heidi and Jade are getting on great and feels the group is much stronger following Keisha’s exit.

She added to Britain’s Star magazine: “Our personalities really gel. It feels so natural and like we’ve all been together a lot longer.

“Jade fits like a glove. She looks great, she sings great and we couldn’t be happier that she’s part of the group.”

Jade Ewen Wants To Date But Doesn’t Have The Time To Find A Boyfriend

Jade Ewen

The sexy singer – who recently joined the pop band following the departure of founding member Keisha Buchanan – wants to date but is constantly busy with her hectic work schedule.

She told Britain’s Metro newspaper: “I still haven’t got a boyfriend. You know what is mad? You actually do not have the time. I think it was actually two weeks ago the last time I even saw my mum. You meet people all the time but you never get the chance to really get to know anyone. There are people around and there was someone and I thought, ‘Oh, he’s cute.’ But I haven’t had that chance to explore that avenue.”

The Sugababes – who are also comprised of Amelle Berrabah and Heidi Range – are preparing for the release of their new album ‘Sweet 7’, which is due to come out in March 2010, and have been promoting latest single ‘About a Girl’.

Keisha recently revealed she had forgiven her former bandmates and held no grudge towards Jade.

She said:  “I’ve cried so many tears. I’m over the worst. I believe I am stronger for it all. The girls are my friends. I’m certainly concerned about them and wish them only the best.

“There’s no hard feelings with the girls, it’s time to move on.”

Amelle Berrabah Feels “cleansed” After Stay In An Austrian clinic

by Kavy on Nov.13, 2009, under Artist, Band, Music, Singer

Amelle Berrabah

The Sugababes singer – who was admitted to a centre last month after the pressures of the band’s recent line-up change took their toll – is feeling great after her three-week stay in an Austrian clinic, which she says was to help with her confidence problems.

She said: “I’m really good. I’m happy happy! Haha! I heard I went to some depression clinic. It wasn’t a clinic. It’s a place in Austria where you cleanse your mind, body and spirit. You can walk around in your dressing gown day and night, you don’t have to wear make-up, no one’s judging you. I spoke to a life coach and sorted myself out a little bit.”

The 25-year-old beauty began to feel out of sorts after the constant criticism became too “cut-throat” for her to handle.

She explained Britain’s Times newspaper: “I needed to get my confidence back. It can be very cut-throat, you need a thick skin. People criticise you a lot, dissect you bit by bit, your looks, your vocals, your skin, what you’re wearing!”

The Sugababes recently altered their line-up, with Jade Ewen joining Amelle and Heidi Range following the departure of Keisha Buchanan – the final remaining original member of the trio – amid allegations she had bullied Amelle.

Amelle admits her treatment has caused her to reassess how she lets others treat her.

She explained: “If I could turn back time, I would have made it clear not to speak to me in certain ways or treat me in certain ways. I would have put a stop to that a long time ago.

“But I’m grateful to Heidi and Jade for understanding, and grateful to the label. Three weeks is a b***dy long time, especially in this industry.”

Keisha Buchanan Forgive’s The Sugababes And Her Ex-Bandmates

by cyan on Oct.29, 2009, under Artist, Band, Singer

Keisha Buchanan

The singer – who was ousted from the girl band last month after months of bitter feuds – insists she holds “no hard feelings” towards her former bandmates Amelle Berrabah and Heidi Range, or new member Jade Ewen.

Keisha, 25, said: “I’ve cried so many tears. I’m over the worst. I believe I am stronger for it all. The girls are my friends. I’m certainly concerned about them and wish them only the best.

“There’s no hard feelings with the girls, it’s time to move on. I don’t want to cry anymore. We all couldn’t work together anymore – we weren’t happy, me and Heidi. I was depressed. You shouldn’t have to go to work treading on eggshells.”

Keisha has been supported since leaving the group by her former bandmate Mutya Buena, who exited the band and was replaced by Amelle in December 2005.

However, the ‘Overload’ singer was quick to deny speculation she, Mutya and third founding Sugababes star Siobhan Donaghy – who was replaced by Heidi in 2001 – are set to work together again.

She said: “Mutya’s been very supportive. It’s been good tot talk with her and have so many friends look out for me.

“We’re not forming another band, that is out of the question. But we are friends of course.”

Instead, Keisha is now focusing on her upcoming solo album, which she is planning to release in 2010.

She added to Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper: “I’m doing fine – I’ve been focusing on my solo project and my new look. I’ve been to Paris Fashion Week and I had the best time.

“I’m really excited about 2010. I’m in the studio working out my new sound – and I’m finally OK with things. I have learned to smile again.”

British R‘n’B star Taio Cruz recently offered to help Keisha conquer the pop charts on her own.

The ‘Break Your Heart’ singer – who recently collaborated with Cheryl Cole – said: “I would absolutely work with Keisha if she wanted me to. She can be sure that I will help her out.”
