Liberty X "not cool enough for modern world"

Why did Liberty X split, then?

Michelle Heaton says they didn't change, pop did:

“There isn’t a place for our music any more.

“When we first started it was a proper pop era with Smash Hits and Top Of The Pops going strong.

“Pop’s all cool now, like LILY ALLEN and stuff.”

Good lord, how clunkingly uncool would you have to be to feel Lily Allen, with her comedy dad, public school education and New Look cheque somehow constitutes "cool"; added to that, if pop's so cool, how come McFly seem to be thriving? What are Scooch doing in the top ten?

Apparently, Michelle now dreams of playing a role in Chicago; we'd suggest she starts looking for something in delivery and considers moving to the kitchens if that works out. Good luck in Illinois, then.

Er, wasn't the heyday for both of these institutions round about 1984-1989? For what it's worth, there is nothing cooler than a good record, and Liberty X had (by my reckoning) 2.

Quite. Both had lost all their relevance and importance by the time Liberty X came along. Both were quietly clunking along, waiting for the axe.
