Sugababes look like they’re ageing backwards as they headline first arena tour since shooting to fame in 2000

SUGABABES have scored six UK number ones and sold more than 12million records worldwide since they first shot to fame in 2000.

The group’s infamous line-up changes undoubtedly overshadowed all six members’ talents over the years.

It’s still hard to believe that, this week, they kicked off their first ever arena tour.

Founding members Mutya Buena, Keisha Buchanan and Siobhan Donaghy got back together in 2013 but it’s taken them over a decade to perform their biggest shows to date.

But it was worth the wait.

Recent months have seen the girls release new music, with them working out the winning formula of sounding current while maintaining the Sugababes’ signature sound.

And Mutya, 39, and Keisha and Siobhan, both 40, showed off both their timeless looks and talents as they played London’s O2 Arena on Thursday.

The girls launched the show with debut single Overload and wrapped up with About You Now – arguably the Subababes’ biggest hit.

But a 25 year career meant they had more than enough tracks to fill the show, wowing the audience with the likes of Push The Button, Hole In The Head and latest single Weeds.

Some may assume the trio are just another girl group, but their O2 concert proved they are some of the best vocalists to come out of the UK.

Mutya in particular stood out during the two hour set, showcasing her inimitable husky and soulful vocals which sounded as fresh as they did more than two decades ago.

It seems fitting that Sugababes have now come full circle and show no signs of disappearing again any time soon.
