Keisha is a prime example of how black girls always get labelled the sassy ones, attitude! bossy!

when these white hoes be whole Regina Georges behind closed doors. Keisha's big mistake was staying quiet after they stole her group from her..

And lets be real.. the main reason they kicked her out and tossed Jade in..is because they thought jade and her light skin and racially ambiguous look would help them (the label) conquer the US.

all facts. but she had a point when she said she felt like no one would believe her. i remember following all the mess on popjustice (cuz no one was covering it in the US  :dead:) and fuming! i just knew they were painting her to be the villain. the white gays were just lapping it up.

poor heidi!

cccv heidi did always give a 30 something and that girl was damn 18 when she joined. she def still had moments of being stunning if were honest but n

i was most pissed at heidi because i felt like she should have never gone along with keisha being replaced. its like you have all this history with this girl and throw it away for what? also what in the vocal hell did you think yall would be worth after she left. replacing her with a pageant singer was supposed to do what? i have absolutely nothing positive to say about amelle.

ffffffffffff

I kinda liked her at first...cause I was PISSED at Mutya for leaving them.

But then she tried to breakout and did that feat. with Tinchy Stryder and I knew she had bad intentions.

Heidi is a fake ass bitch.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0isMmLaUftw

Smiling in this girls face then doing her dirty a day later.  :uhh:

!!!

its confusion cuz when keisha speaks she says the girls were supportive behind the scenes but babe where were they when it all hit the fan! and we still don't know exactly what the reason for the split was. queen is still keeping it classy.

but if you listen to the original three now?! these other girls are utterly inferior

amelle was clearly so thirsty for the spotlight (even tho i kinda uses that tiny joint)

She seems so sweet and clearly regrets all of the moments she didn't speak up for herself. Most people just want their dreams to come true however they can get it by that point, so, i don't blame her one bit. It's just sad that it didn't work out in her favor at some point.
