The British pop group, Liberty X, has recently announced their plans for a comeback in 2024. This news has sparked excitement among fans of the noughties sensation, as it has been almost 20 years since the group's last appearance. In their prime, Liberty X experienced massive success from 2001 to 2005, with eight top 10 singles and their hit song "Just a Little" reaching number one in the UK and becoming a worldwide hit.
Comprised of members Michelle Heaton, Tony Lundon, Kevin Simm, Jessica Taylor, and Kelli Young, Liberty X was formed after the five competed on the ITV reality singing competition, Popstars. The group initially split in 2007 but briefly reunited in 2012. Since then, Michelle, Jessica, and Kelli have continued as a trio under the Liberty X name, but now it seems that Tony and Kevin are ready to rejoin the group.
Michelle, who has also appeared on popular shows such as Celebrity Big Brother, Dancing On Ice, and Celebrity SAS, expressed her gratitude for being able to perform on stage at 44 years old, singing songs that were released over two decades ago to sold-out crowds. She shared this sentiment on her Instagram page, along with a photo of the group's reunion. (https://www.instagram.com/p/C3vu_yrI6L1/?hl=en)
The group was first formed in 2001, and Michelle continued to tease their followers by hinting at exciting things to come in 2024. She wrote, "We've got some very exciting things coming our way this year." This message came just days after the remaining three members and former member Kevin reunited for a sweet photo, tagging Tony and expressing how much they all miss him.
Fans quickly expressed their enthusiasm for the potential reunion of the Popstars five-piece, who famously lost to Hear'Say in the 2001 final. Many begged for new music and for the group's entire catalogue to be available on streaming services, including demos and B-sides.
Liberty X was formed after Michelle, Tony, Kevin, Jessica, and Kelli were not chosen to join the winning group, Hear'Say. However, after initially reaching number one on the charts, Hear'Say's popularity quickly dropped, and they disbanded less than two years after their formation. In contrast, Liberty X's hit song "Just a Little" became their biggest success, reaching number one on the charts and being certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry.
Their debut album, Thinking It Over, also achieved success, reaching number three on the UK album charts and eventually being certified double platinum after selling over 600,000 copies. Out of all the members, Michelle is the most well-known, having appeared on various TV shows and competitions such as Celebrity Big Brother, Dancing On Ice, and Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
