Cheryl Tweedy, Nicola Roberts, Nadine Coyle, Kimberley Walsh and Sarah Harding beat thousands of hopefuls and won the hearts of the nation with their talent to secure a place in the girl band, Girls Aloud, on a talent show called Popstars: The Rivals.
The show aimed to make two bands - a male vocal harmony group, called One True Voice, and a sassy girl group called Girls Aloud.

The Girls began filming the video for their debut single, "Sound Of The Underground", straight away. The video saw the five girls in a warehouse in colour co-ordinated pink and black outfits doing a dance routine and sultry looks to the camera. It was a thousand times better than the boys' effort - "Sacred Trust".

of various records including the first girlband ever to debut at No.1. "Sound of the Undeground" stayed at the top for 4 weeks.
