about
Sarah Nicole Harding (born Sarah Nicole Hardman 17 November 1981, in Ascot, died 5 September 2021) was an English singer, model and actress best known as one fifth of the wildly successful UK girl group, Girls Aloud. Harding grew up in Poynton, Stockport, Greater Manchester, England. Harding was the oldest member of Girls Aloud and was often featured in tabloids for her hard-partying lifestyle. During Girls Aloud's indefinite hiatus, Harding pursued acting and recorded three solo tracks for the 'St. Trinians 2' soundtrack. Harding attended Hazel Grove High School and Stockport College, and along with Darren Longworth, she worked as part of the promotions team for two nightclubs in The Grand Central Leisure Park in Stockport. Harding was also a regular singer at Karaoke nights in the Whistling Jig, Puss and Boots pub as well as many others and did some vocals for Project G on some unreleased tracks. Project G was a band for which Harding provided backing vocals, long before Girls Aloud came along. She did some photoshoots for promotion but no album, nor known singles, exist. Some tracks that have leaked onto the internet include "Searching" and "Don't Wanna Be Alone". Whilst working as a waitress and barmaid in Manchester, she entered the UK talent-search show Popstars: The Rivals. Harding also entered FHM's High Street Honeys, the magazine's national beauty contest, and her pictures appeared in the first Top 100, but she later withdrew, upon achieving success on Popstars.
