Thousands
of girls got the opportunity of a lifetime when Global TV launched its
first ever "Reality TV" series - Popstars. The search
was on for 5 girls who could sing, perform, dance and act as role models
in Canada's premiere all girl pop group. After thousands of auditions,
numerous elimination processes and one very tough boot camp, five girls
were chosen - Julie, Sahara, Mirella, Andrea and Maiko.
Sugar Jones was created.
Since
the premiere of the bands first video (Days Like That) on Much
Music on April 16th, the band has been kept busy with a lot of exciting
work. The single for Days Like That was released on May 1st,
and the full album on June 26th. If you haven't already bought the album,
make sure you pick it up because you don't want to miss out!
Sugar Jones have been making themselves known by travelling across Canada
doing autograph sessions and performances. The girls even made their
first TV appearance on the Mike Bullard show, and opened up a Raptors
game by singing the national anthem. One of the most amazing things
Sugar Jones has had the opportunity to experience since the creation
of the band is being asked to tour with Destiny's Child on their Canadian
dates. So it seems that Sugar Jones is not just a one hit wonder band
created for the sake of a TV show. The girls have gelled together to
form something unique to Canada - and they have already caught the respect
of many big named groups around the world.
Sugar Jones may be coming to your town soon!!!! Yes!! They've got their
very own cross-country tour planned, which kicks off on Sept. 13th on
the West Coast.
