Sugababes Pull Out Of Scottish Royal Variety Performance
Sugababes have issued the following statement:
With great personal regret, Sugababes will not be able to participate as headline act at this Thursday’s Scottish Royal Variety Performance.
Following the recent and well documented change of line-up to Sugababes, there are a number of legal issues to be finalized by all parties in order that the band can move forward.
Sadly, whilst these negotiations are approaching completion, it will not be possible for the band to finalize its business affairs prior to Thursday’s event.
Heidi, Amelle and Jade wish to extend their most sincere and personal apologies for the inevitable inconvenience and disappointment that this decision will bring to the organisers and producers of the show and, not least of all, their many Scottish fans who were looking forward to seeing the exciting new line-up’s first live performance.
As a gesture to all those who have been disappointed by this unavoidable decision, Sugababes have agreed to perform a gig at a future date (TBA), the profit of which will be donated towards the Scottish Royal Variety’s chosen charity; the Royal Blind Society.
This charity is particularly close to Jade’s heart for very personal reasons.
Jade commented, “This is such a disappointment to all of us because not only were we looking forward to this being our very first gig together, but my dad happens to be blind and my mum is partially sighted, and I know firsthand the great work the charity does for families like mine. That’s why Heidi, Amelle and I have agreed to put on our own gig to support this massively worthwhile cause. We can’t wait to visit Scotland in the near future!”
Sugababes manager confirmed, “This was indeed an unavoidable decision of a contractual nature but I am delighted to confirm that all other band engagements are due to resume next week when it will be business as usual for Sugababes!”
