Taio Cruz 'Speaks About Sugababes' Future'

Taio Cruz has spoken about the new line-up change for the Sugababes - as he is friends with the girls.

Fans were stunned when the only original member of the group - founder Keisha Buchanan quit last month - only to be replaced by Jade Ewen.

When asked what he thought of the band's future, Taio told MTV News: "I think it's crazy - I feel like I was the last one to know about the new Sugababes lineup, but it's mad."

"It's very, very close because I know Keisha really well and I know Jade really well. Neither of them are answering their phones to me right now so I think everyone is keeping it close to heart at the moment."

"I am happy Jade is doing really well and she's going to be in an amazing band, she's got an amazing voice." Cruz continued.

"And Keisha, as she was saying, she's been in the band for a while and it's probably going to be a new chapter for her, doing something new, so good luck to her."

Taio Cruz releases his second album 'Rokstarr' on 12th October, featuring the singles 'Break My Heart' and 'Take Me Back' (with Tinchy Stryder).
