New-look Sugababes finally perform live together for first time as Amelle jets back from health clinic

It's been a traumatic two months for the Sugababes, who have undergone their third rollercoaster line-up change with the exit of Keisha Buchanan.

Their first gig was cancelled for legal reasons and Amelle was forced to take time off for exhaustion, but the new line-up came together at last to perform.

With Jade Ewen on board, Heidi Range and Miss Berrabah sang their latest song, About A Girl, for Radio 1 listeners live from Maida Vale Studios in west London.

They also sang a cover of Florence And The Machine's Rabbit Heart (Raise It Up), impressing Fearne Cotton with their 'amazing harmonies'.

Amelle, who has just spent a three-week stint in a European clinic recovering from nervous exhaustion, said she was back on form and raring to go.

The 25-year-old was forced to take a break in the wake of Keish's exit, after angry fans posted abusive messages on her Twitter account.

ade, 21, who represented the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest, admitted joining the band was the 'hardest decision of my life' saying she initially had concerns about how she would be received.

Fellow band member Heidi Range, who last month broke down in front of fans in Leeds when making an appearance with Jade, said she was looking forward to the future.

Asked by Fearne about rumours the original Sugababes were planning to reform, Heidi said: 'It's nothing to do with us.'

But she added that she wishes all the former members the 'best of luck' and that there are no 'bad feelings' between them.

Keisha's manager has since dismissed reports that she is set to reform with original Sugababes Mutya Buena and Siobhan Donaghy.

The 25-year-old is now working on solo material, which she plans to release next year.

Like the Sugababes, she is also signed to Island Records.

About A Girl is available to buy and download now.

Boozy Sugababe Amelle hits the pavement

The Metro, UK

Troubled Sugababe Amelle Berrabah showed she was back on song, well for a couple of drinks at least, before she came crashing down to the pavement in a drunken stupor at Sarah Harding's city slickers party.

Berrabah, who has just escaped rehab following the bitter Sugababes fall-out, made her embarrassing stack as she left the opening of Harding's new night club Kanaloa in The City, after putting on a show of unity with her new band formation.

Things were going well for her comeback until the shots kicked in, after hitting the turps with bandmates Heidi Range and new recruit Jade Ewen.

My spy said: 'Amelle is doing so much better now. She was telling everyone how much better she feels and was celebrating with Jade and Heidi, as well as fashion pal Henry Holland.'

'They were all tucking in to the shots, so it was no surprise to see Amelle hit the pavement when she left at 2.30am'.

Sugababe Amelle 'more confident'

Digital Spy, UK

Amelle Berrabah has reportedly claimed that she is feeling much more confident than before.

The Sugababes member returned to work earlier this week after being diagnosed with nervous exhaustion last month.

The stress was blamed on the changes in the band's lineup, which saw original member Keisha Buchanan replaced by Jade Ewen.

According to the News of the World, Berrabah told a friend that she is feeling much better after spending time in a German health clinic.

"I'm back and I feel like a completely different person," she reportedly said. "My confidence was so low before and I was afraid to face people. But now I feel assertive and I'm ready to go back to work.

"I feel bad about how the girls have been left to deal with things on their own and I was nervous about seeing them. But Jade and I got on like a house on fire. She's a great girl and I know we've got a future together now."

Meanwhile, a source claimed that Buchanan and Berrabah are rebuilding their relationship.

"Keisha sent a text," the insider said. "Amelle was surprised but pleased to hear from her. She told Amelle she was rooting for her. It was the right thing to do, even after everything that's happened."
