Nicola Roberts posts dig at Sarah Harding over her shaming of Fifth Harmony
They were part of Girls Aloud
Published 16th Aug 2017 Last updated 16th Aug 2017
Yesterday former Girls Aloud singer and current Celebrity Big Brother housemate, Sarah Harding, came under fire from fans of girl band Fifth Harmony after she described them as 'slutty'. Now her former bandmate Nicola Roberts seems to have thrown some shade in Sarah's direction with an Instagram post showing she's all for women supporting each other.
The drama unfolded when Bachorlette star Chad asked Sarah if she'd heard of Fifth Harmony to which she replied "Um, yes, those slutty ones? Yeah."
Chad, who Sarah has been kissing in the house, replied: "Are they slutty?"
To which she responded, "Yeah. They all wear next to nothing - all the girl bands do these days. Slutty, slutty, slutty. Sex sells, sex sells..."
She then spoke about Girls Aloud, saying, "Obviously, when we were touring we didn't wear much because it was so hot, but it's when they do the videos it's all, like, slut drops and twerking.
"We used to have to do proper dance routines. They just do slut drops now."
Nicola Roberts timing could not have been more apt as she posted on Instagram a photo of her wearing a hat emblazoned with 'Women in music are dangerously underestimated' and the caption 'And that's why we have to support each other. ✊🏻✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿'
Nicola's fans were quick to comment with user pauline_jgmc writing 'Yes Nicola, tell them ! 🙌🏼🙌🏼' and kirsty.knight90Yes added 'women empowerment 🙌💃💜 no slut shaming here 👏'
Viewers were also unimpressed that Sarah had 'cheated' on her boyfriend whilst in the Celebrity Big Brother house. There's still time for her to turn it around though and perhaps she'll end up in our CBB winner's gallery...
Jack Dee: 2001
Jack Dee took part in the show for Comic Relief and everyone seemed surprised, none more so than Jack. The series lasted a paltry five days as it was a more innocent time.
