They’ve done it.
After five years and countless top tens, The Saturdays have nabbed their first ever #1 single with their latest effort ‘What About Us’. And on the week fellow Brit-Pop group Girls Aloud announced their split. Fairytale much?
Full story below…
The Sean Paul assisted cut rocketed straight to the top of the Official UK Singles Chart today, outselling previous chart-topper Justin Timberlake‘s ‘Mirrors’ by two-to-one. Moreover, the song is also the fastest-selling UK single of 2013 so far.
‘What About Us’ serves as the first release to be lifted from the ladies upcoming album tentatively titled ‘The Chase’.

Needless to say, congratulations are certainly in order for the ladies. Of course, they have ample work to in bettering their live performing game, but this may well be what is needed to gear them up.
On a random note, while this is their first stint at the top, the ladies have countless other cuts equally deserving (see: ‘Work’, ‘Ego’, ‘All Fired Up’ and the like). Still, when it’s time it’s time and now is that time. More power to them!
