Created in 2002, in a reality show far far away, these females were prefabricated and then hand-picked from a boiling vat of make-up, sweat, wiggly dance moves and skimpy outfits. The reason behind this? Obviously so that they could bring joy to the world by singing catchy pop songs. Then they probably went on to do even more important stuff that I can't remember and have even less interest in. But this week's Death Match isn't bothered with any of that cobblers. Rather it asks a more important question, namely: 'Which 'Girls Aloud' member is the fittest'? 1) Cheryl. 2) Kimberley. 3) Nadine. 4) Nicola. 5) Sarah.

Don't normally have a thing about blondes but always thought Sarah Harding looked pretty good when they started out. Touch of the crash and burn about her subsequently though

Don't normally have a thing about blondes but always thought Sarah Harding looked pretty good when they started out. Touch of the crash and burn about her subsequently though Yeah she was fit. It was a toss up (fnarr fnarr) between her and Cheryl for me. I almost put Sarah but Cheryl looked better overall in a variety of outfits. Yes, on researching this latest DM apparently Sarah has gone a bit doolally. But then again the tabloids have probably been complete b*****ds with her and blow stuff up to make her out to be a bigger wreck than she actually is. Genetically she was probably ill prepared for stardom or something. Which probably makes her quite normal.

They are all well fit but it has to be Kimberly Walsh for me. A beautiful lass with a gorgeous smile. Least fit in my books is Kim. I looked at loads of photos and it took me ages to find a good one of her for the DM. In many she looked pretty rough. Kim is strictly an also ran.

Did someone say Girls Aloud? Wait a minute .... I would be very interested in how our female members vote on this one! Firstly - Cheryl Cole ... never! What a dog, or is it cash cow? However, Sarah Harding - ding dong .... Of interest to brother mias - according to her Wikipedia page ... In June 2017, it was reported that Harding had a 'six-week affair' with married Danny Dyer when filming Run for Your Wife.Just awarded myself...

I remember at the time, everyone was calling Nicola Roberts a 'minger' and even I will admit that I always thought she looked somewhat awkward and uncomfortable compared with the others. Someone then pointed out that if she hadn't been surrounded by the other four all the time, people would realise that she was in fact quite attractive in her own right. And I think, to some degree, this is true. However, I'm not gonna vote for any of them, because they all look like boozy old slappers who love themselves a bit too much.

Apparently Nicola has a huge male fan base. So I read somewhere while I was researching the individuals. I dunno if this is true. Agreed, they do indeed look like 'boozy slappers who love themselves' but surely you must have an inkling as to which you find most aesthetically pleasing. It's not legally binding Fordcapri, it's not like you've got to marry them.

I'm surprised at that. I actually think that when Chezza scrapes off her war paint, she actually looks rather pretty.

Then, after a year or two, do a runner with half of it! I'll guess that Chezza has got the most in terms of capital and other assets, although she has been married like 37 times already, so probably not much left in the bank. Or did she take half of her ex-husbands wealth with her? I'd happily split my assets down the middle, as I'm sure I'd be getting the better deal ! I suppose the aforementioned Ms Roberts is the 'nicest' looking one, the others do all look totally up themselves and 100% untrustworthy. Sorry girls! Nothing to choose between them as they all look like Barbie dolls.

Hounds, one and all. They were more polished than Bananarama type bands, but ultimately, they were poor. However, IF I were a DJ playing their debut record on air for its VERY first time, I'd expect a favour back from Kimberley.

I wouldn't kick any of them out of bed, all fine looking lasses. Kimberly is my favourite by far, just has that look of filth about her which is right up my street.
Nearly went to see them when they played Aberdeen a few ago, but it was pointed out to me it may not be a good idea.
Cheryl is probably the most natural beauty of them all and give the lass some credit as she came from nothing and hasn't done too badly for herself.

Yup, made a pretty penny off young kids buying her utterly rubbish autotune music* which she didn't compose, then got herself in the club from another talentless pile of underage spotty rubbish from One Direction*. The barrel has been scraped so much there's a hole at the bottom of it - talentless cack breeds with more of the same if you ask me. Zero talent anywhere*. * for which she should probably be arrested.

To be fair, MOST famous singers and musicians came from nothing. Elvis springs to mind. Hank Marvin and Bruce Welch of the Shadows, likewise. Same could be said of every member of Guns N Roses, Motley Crue and The Beatles. But if the point you are making is that she came from nothing, had zero amount of talent and made good, then I'd agree that she deserves some credit for that!

So you don't have talent, but ending up a multi millionaire for having none is some going in my book. I wish I was as untalented as her.

They all had great legs (ignoring Cheryl's cankles) and I wouldn't say no to any of them. They did come across as being up themselves as was previously mentioned. That first record of Cheryl's was as bad as anything ever released. Not heard any subsequent ones but I'm sure they're worse. Cheryl's boyfriend must be buzzing. He was about 14 when he first met her.

They were manufactured, yes, but they all looked totally different and had their own personalities - something that cannot be said for Girls Aloud or the Saturdays, etc... I'll admit, with some trepidation, to having their first two albums AND a Spice Girls poster (from Pepsi) on my kitchen door (circa 1996). Some of their songs, regardless of who wrote them, were OK. The 90s was the last time there was any pop music of any real calibre. Funny to think that Blur, oasis, Manic Street Preachers, Supergrass etc... was so long ago. What have we got now? Stormzy! But yeah, the Spice Girls were OK.

Did someone say Girls Aloud? Wait a minute .... I would be very interested in how our female members vote on this one! I can't really vote as I don't know the band these girls were in and the only one I have heard of is Cheryl Cole, and that's just because of the One Direction baby 'entertainment' news which isn't really news. I know she is on that Simon Cowell talentless show. (Unfortunately that show gets played out here too) The pictures of them aren't the best. In my experience, men have a definite preference towards blonde or brunette, and they usually pick the girl with the biggest chest measurement or best legs and the tartiest looking girl gets their first preference. (This is not written as a criticism. Men are very vocal about what they like). I suppose one good thing is that for 'normal' girls, men always seem to make exceptions to their 'rules'. Btw in Australia 'who is the fittest?' would mean who can run fast, do a cardio or gym workout with a good BMI and health rating.

I'll admit that my preference would be for someone who looked like that well known Brit who everyone thinks is Australian Olivia Newton-John - as she looked between, say, 1971 and 1981. Or Diane Keen as she looked at about that same time period. Why girls these days favour the 'tarty' slapper look is beyond me - and always pouting into their mobile phone cameras. Hilarious! Funny thing is, you don't have to look like a slag to look sexy. Quite often the reverse. Little Mix are another case in point. Bad role models. All things considered, I think it's an almost unanimous for Girls Aloud.

Harlots or no, for a true knight of the realm, it matters not. I have to say I don't listen to any of their music (couldn't even name a song I don't think) and they belong to a vacuous world I don't care for, but in the beginning they will have started out as little girls singing into a hairbrush, who later in life got the opportunity to do it for real. Sure they aren't infallible but come on guys just coz they get put in stupid outfits, wear lots of make up and sing throwaway pop trash doesn't make them all bad, does it? The Spice Girls were no better.

I think the problem is that thanks to the omnipresence of 'talent' shows, more and more people's dreams are coming true - when perhaps it would be better if they didn't! Girls Aloud seem to fit into this category quite nicely. It seems to be those least worthy of success who achieve it through these routes and it inevitably ends up with them making drunken fools of themselves in all the tabloids, sticking the middle finger up to the lesser mortals and basically flogging rubbish. But I suppose the same could be said of footballers. When I was a kid, you could probably count on one hand those who wanted to be rich and famous. Now I'd be willing to bet it's at least half the school. Oh well, times change.

That's very true fordcapri. I worked for a bit at a school in Spain where British kids attended - "I'm not going to do your honeworkbecause I'm going to be a Premier League footballer anyway" was one kid's answer to me when I told him to work a bit harder. His father was promoting him to the n-th level too when he was in to chat to the staff at parents' evenings.
That was over a decade ago, have I seen him on TV or playing for England yet? Urrm, no.

Yes, great post. I liked the Spice Girls-All Saints axis amongst the other Brit-music of that period. As you say FC, funny to think that it was so long ago. Today's pop stars were barely born....
