Flop pop acts from the 90s and 00s.

New to Tattle Life? Click "Order Thread by Most Liked Posts" button below to get an idea of what the site is about:
Dove, short lived Irish pop band who made the top 30 of the UK charts. The lead singer Hazel Kaneswaren later entered Popstars the Rivals while pregnant. She made it to the final 10 and then had to be eliminated as she had lied about her age. She was replaced by Nicola Roberts.

I had this on single back in the day, I had no idea she was Hazel from PTR. It all worked out in the end though.

Off topic but does anyone else randomly remember the telephone number for Going Live/Live and Kicking?! 081 811 8181 πŸ˜‚β˜Ž

On topic:
Color Me Badd - I Wanna Sex U Up. I remember being so embarrassed when this came on when I was with my parents in the car.

Snow - Informer. "a-licky-boom-boom-down" πŸ˜‚

Dr Alban - It's My Life. Now just reminds me of period adverts.

I posted this earlier in the thread, I was quite young at the time but thought he was the most gorgeous thing ever.

I was wrong πŸ˜‚

Do you remember when Paris Hilton tried her hand at being a ✨ Popstar ✨ ?

I actually think the first one is a bop, the second is not. 😬

I remember people at the time this came out remarking how it sounded like UB40’s Kingston Town

Lynden David Hall. He had a song called Sexy Cinderella which you might recognise. He sadly died of cancer in 2006.




Also, "Why Can't I?" by Liz Phair.

I know way too much random information on flop pop acts πŸ˜‚ Kimberly Walsh actually took Hazel Kaneswarens place in Girls Aloud. And she was over the age limit by 10 days - which is crazy πŸ˜‚ She is also the sister of Siva from The Wanted.
