Amelle: ‘Keisha almost ruined me’

Sugababes star Amelle Berrabah has said former band mate Keisha Buchanan nearly ruined her.
Amelle Berrabah has accused Keisha Buchanan of nearly ‘ruining her life’ during her final months in the Sugababes. Buchanan, the last original member of the band, was replaced last month by former Eurovision flop Jade Ewen, but Amelle claims the band was close to imploding. “Keisha ruined my career, almost,” Amelle told the Metro. “I still really respect Keisha but at the end of the last line-up it was getting really difficult for me and Heidi - to the point that it was going on for months and months.
"It ground me and Heidi down. I couldn't take it any more. When I was in LA I said, 'I can't do this any more'. I was willing not to even be in a band. Heidi backed me up and I respect her for that."
However, following the line-up change, Berrabah had a spell in clinic suffering with nervous exhaustion. “I definitely needed it but I didn't know what I wanted at the start,” she explained. “I just knew I wasn't myself and I wasn't right. I knew I needed to take some time out but I didn't know how. Someone said there is this really great retreat that people go to for all different reasons, even with really stressy jobs. To clear your head. It definitely did the trick." The Sugababes are currently working on new material for their upcoming album Sweet 7.
