London, October 19 (ANI): Former Sugababes member Mutya Buena has reportedly been talking to her old bandmates on phone for hours to try and convince them to come together to form a complete new band.

The singer is apparently trying to persuade founder members Keisha Buchanan and Siobhan Donaghy to start all over again.

Seemingly, Buena is trying to emphasize on the fact that the new Sugababes - Heidi Range, Amelle Berrabah and Jade Ewen- comprise none of the original members.

“I suppose now there’s no original Sugababes left we should just all reform again,” the Sun quoted her as saying in a recent TV interview.

Also, a meeting between Mutya between Siobhan has reportedly taken place.

Siobhan’s pal said: “She met up with Mutya for the first time in ages over the summer and they got on well.

“Now Mutya is convinced the original three could be huge again.

“She was on the phone all last weekend trying to convince the girls to reform. Siobhan’s considering it.”

Keisha’s friend also added: “Mutya is very keen to do this. Keisha has her solo career on the go - including recording with new star JAY SEAN - but she feels more comfortable as part of a band.

“There were arguments in the past, but all three realise it was because they were young, headstrong and finding fame hard to cope with.”

The three singers had first formed Sugababes in 1998. (ANI)
