Dreams That Glitter: Our Story

When 2002's Popstars: The Rivals threw five unknown hopefuls together, wrote them a pop song, and gave them a recording contract, no one really expected them to conquer the world. Yet five years later, Cheryl, Kimberley, Nadine, Nicola, and Sarah have come a long way indeed. With a record-breaking 16 consecutive Top 10 singles (including three number ones), four platinum albums, and record sales in excess of 4.2 million in the UK alone, they are loved by the masses, critically aacclaimed by the broadsheets, and have been nominated for a Brit. Now the girls have seized the opportunity to share the story of their success. Giving a personal insight into their childhoods, their love interests, their struggle for recognition, their party lifestyle, and their rock solid friendships with each other, this book charts the girls' ride from relative obscurity to international superstardom, with plenty of style advice and celebrity gossip along the way. Fun, fiesty, drop-dead gorgeous, immensely successful, and the life and soul of the party, Girls Aloud have literally millions of adoring fans in the UK. Packed full of never-before-seen pics and lavishly illustrated throughout, this book is a must-read for them all.
