Sugababes become ball-breakers in their latest video for the new single, No Can Do. Or is it just an excuse for a gratuitous display of man-flesh?

For this latest single, the girls are seen using various man-sculptures using a troupe of well-toned himbos, and making me feel even worse about my waistline. Grrr. It’s a novel concept for a pop video, however, but the bit with the guys with lampshades on their heads veers the video into freaky territory, doesn’t it?

I’ve been watching something brewing in the Sugababes camp for a few days.

If my radar is correct, Keisha and chums are growing unhappy that Girls Aloud are beating them out in the popularity stakes.

A number of articles and interviews have cited the Sugababes girls as:

Apparently, Kiesha Buchannon has hinted that the Sugababes might be up for some raunchier photo sessions now that they’re older.

This is kind of the opposite of other acts who start out flashing the flesh and then decide to cover up so their music will be taken more seriously.

It may be worth noting, dear reader, that the title is not Here Come The Girls. It is merely Girls. Very minimalist.

And although the Sugababes only released their fifth album (Change) last October, this new single is from their forthcoming sixth album. Entitled Catfights And Spotlights. That should scotch any more rumours of the trio breaking up for a while at least!

Our latest poll is to find out who you think is the best girl group ever. At the moment, Girls Aloud are leading the pack with the Spice Girls only one vote behind.

Remember, if you haven’t voted yet, pleace your vote now – and you can add other groups to the list if you want to suggest another group.

The Sugababes are one of the most enduring girl groups we’ve ever seen in the UK. They started their chart careers back in 2000 as glum-faced teens, but with a surprisingly fresh urban sound that was more interesting that the kind of pop Atomic Kitten were flogging at the time.

There’s always been a cloud of bitchiness hanging over the group and this has brought about two personnel changes leading to the departures of original members Siobhan Donaghy and Mutya Buena. However, the Sugababes have always managed to reinvent themselves with each new album.

These days, of course, they’re a very slick pop act. There’s no denying that. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at what we think are the best ever Sugababes songs.

OK, can we get the kiddie jokes about Denial being a river in Egypt out of the way right now? You’re all a bunch of big kids really…

OK, so we’ve hit the third single from the Sugababes’ Change album. It’s been confusing for the record buying public who aren’t sure now if the Sugababes are a pop group or a travelling fashion show. Certainly, between the videos for Change and Denial, you’d be forgiven for thinking that they were on the verge of launching a fashion range.

Skinny Sugababe Amelle Berrabah is suddenly very worried that she’s about to get unceremoniously dumped by her chums in Sugababes.

Why? Well pop-fans, it’s because her boyfriend Freddie Fuller suffered a machete attack on Christmas Eve. It’s not the first time Freddie’s been in trouble and caused some negative press for Amelle – last year he was accused of raping her sister.

The Sugababes return with About You Now, the first single from their new album Changes and their sixth number one hit.

Although About You Now retains a little bit of the electronic fuzz that has dominated their previous hits, it’s a much more straightforward pop song than we’re used to.

The Groove Armada bunny returns with a reinvigorated Mutya Buena. This song’s been doing the rounds for a while now, although it was only released last week (23 July 2007).

This, and Mutya’s last single will have critics wondering whether Sugababes have lost a key member. Let’s face it, with the electronic fuzz that dominates this single and the disco-pop sensibilities could have been a natural follow-on from the Sugababes’ Freak Like Me.
