The Film: Honest (2000)
The Girl(s): Nicole Appleton, Natalie Appleton and Melanie Blatt.
The Band: All Saints. Originally formed (with a different line-up) in 1994, the group truly came together in 1995 when Natalie and Nicole Appleton were added to the already teamed Melanie Blatt and Shaznay Lewis.
But it was 1997, and the release of their smash single Never Ever that saw them properly launched on the worldwide music stage.
They had more success with albums and singles, before band arguments saw them split in early 2001, with the various singers attempting solo careers.
They briefly reformed in 2007 and apparently still plan to perform together, though very little has been heard of them since then.
The Ugly: Despite being directed by Dave “Eurhythmics” Stewart, black comedy Honest, which saw the Appletons and Blatt as a gang of thieves, never took off at the box office, eventually earning £111,309.
It was better known as “All Saints Exposing Their Boobs Movie”, since both the Appletons expose their lady bumps in the film. Shaznay Lewis smartly stayed well away.

Not that I'm much of a Fergie fan, but surely her casting in the upcoming '9' is worthy of a mention? The concept might be vaguely blasphemous to a film fan, but the casting alone says it's bound to be an Oscar contender..
