It really feels like Girls Aloud have been around for ages. Obviously they haven't and I do hazily remember a time when they weren't pouting and gyrating on TV, but it seems that even one of the girls themselves is making plans to fly the nest. Step forward Sarah Harding. The pop princess has been making noises about leaving Girls Aloud to industry big-wigs in the hope that she can stop seeing her pay cheque split five ways and make it as a solo artist. And how is she progressing? Not so well apparently.
A source reveals: "Sarah has had an eye on her future for a long time. She knows girl bands only have a short shelf life and that the dream wouldn't last forever." Sounds sensible, if not slightly optimistic, but the insider admits: "The response hasn't been quite what she had expected. She thought people would jump at the chance to take her on – but it hasn't quite worked out like that." Aw bless, well she'll always have the Ultima lingerie contract and lads mag appearances to help her once the music dream dies.
