Try as they have, the original Sugababes have had their cover blown.

Once shrewd in secrecy, their reformation has been confirmed by many a source – including Emeli Sande, who spoke to That Grape Juice recently about working with the Brit-Pop trio.

And it seems this had led the ladies to make less of an effort to conceal the comeback everyone’s waiting for. Case, point, the shot above, which saw members Keisha Buchanan and Mutya Buena pose it up with UK talent Wretch 32 and Daley at an industry function.

The photo follows months of public teasing on Twitter; a collective practice which frequently includes fellow “original” Siobhan Donaghy.

With the current incarnation of the Babes’ reportedly without a label or future prospects, the path seems clearer than ever for a the ladies who started it all to claim what’s theirs.

The NBA’s ‘All Star Game’ is set to host ‘All Night Long’ songstress Mary J. Blige as its singer of the U.S. national anthem this Sunday.  In such, the Grammy winner is already in Orlando, making her rounds at radio stations and related festivities.

Looks like Willow Smith is hoping to turn from ‘Fireball’ to blonde bombshell if this pic is anything to judge by.  Fans may remember that the pint sized pop starlet made headlines for whipping her hair right off and unveiled a shaved head earlier this month.  Now the youngest of the Smith clan looks to turn heads with a new ‘blonde do.

The snap was revealed near the time Miss Smith took to Twitter to say:

The 11-year-old is readying her Roc Nation debut ‘Knees and Elbows‘ this spring. (source)

Currently dominating box offices on a European tour, the ‘Poison’ performer is undoubtedly hoping the next batch of material she cooks up for American audiences will be the antidote to her less than favorable sales on that side of the pond.  Until then, get into the new Herbal Essence spokeswoman flaming hot VIBE set below (thanks, in part, to Popsessive):
