GIRL power is back in focus as members of the biggest British girl bands from the last 30 years squeeze together for a snap.

Spice Girl Mel C was joined by Little Mix’s Leigh-Anne Pinnock, Girls Aloud’s Nicola Roberts, All Saints’ Shaznay Lewis and Sugababe Keisha Buchanan at Apple Music’s Women’s History Month event.

Nicola Roberts - Instagram, So this happened… Last night @apple asked me to join @melaniecmusic @leighannepinnock @shaznaylewis & @keishabuchanan for a panel talk to celebrate women’s history month. I’m still processing and pinching myself. Waking up, my heart feels so full after hearing all our shared experiences of being the women who make up the UK’s biggest girl bands of the past 30 years. There’s only so many of us that can relate to each other’s journey so being in a room with 4 at once and talking the highs and lows was everything. It was so honest and raw I left feeling weirdly healed and heard… and inspired. I have so much respect for each of these women. Something I took away, was that we all started out just as girls with a love for music, singing, writing and for all of the outside noise, the hell of losing yourself and finding yourself again, that little flame still hasn’t gone out ¿¿, Shaznay Lewis, Keisha Buchanan, Leighanne Pinnock, Nicola Roberts, Mel C

Nicola later wrote online: “I’m still pinching myself.

Singer and songwriter Nicola shot to fame in 2002, when she starred on Popstars: The Rivals, aged just 16.

She became part of the winning band with Kimberley Walsh, Cheryl TweedyNadine Coyle, and Sarah Harding, and were given the title Girls Aloud.

Girls Aloud’s debut single Sound of the Underground topped the charts on their way to 20 consecutive top ten singles and two number one albums.

The band is now set for a big comeback, with the pop superstars secretly reuniting at a North London studio to shoot the music video for their first single in 11 years.
