Nadine Elizabeth Louise Coyle (born June 15 1985 , Derry , Northern Ireland ) is a singer from the all-girl group Girls Aloud . EARLY CAREER Nadine Coyle, also known as Nadz or Diney, first found fame in 2001 when, while still at Thornhill College , Derry , she entered the Irish version of the talent show '' Popstars ''. As one of the winners of the show, Coyle was selected to become a member of the band Six . Shortly after the band was formed, the bandmates moved into a house together and all were interviewed on camera. Coyle gave a string of information about herself, but then stopped suddenly and whispered "What date of birth did I give...?". She initially maintained that she had simply made a mistake when stating her birthday, but later broke down off camera and admitted that she had lied about her age, and was in fact only 16 years old. As the minimum age stipulated by the producers was 18, she had to be dropped from the band and returned to her secondary grammar school in Derry called Thornhill. Six's first single "Whole Lot Of Loving" became the fastest-selling single in Irish history. Their second Irish single was "Let Me Be The One", which was released after receiving a successful reaction when they supported Westlife . But, after a failed attempt to break the UK, Six's official site disappeared and the group soon vanished from the pop scene. GIRLS ALOUD See Also: Girls Aloud In ''. As she pulled through the first few rounds her very first fansite opened, and soon she was on the way to the final night. She polled the third-highest number of votes in the final, and was chosen to join the band Girls Aloud, much to the delight of friend and new bandmate Kimberley Walsh . During the series she had been a hot favourite to make the band, especially after a stunning rendition of " Fields Of Gold ", which many believe was the performance of the series. She also sang "Show Me Heaven", "When I Fall In Love" and "I Wanna Dance With Somebody", regularly receiving some of the highest vote tallies. When asked to name a highlight from the show, presenter Davina McCall simply answered "Nadine". With Girls Aloud she has scored Sixteen top 10 singles (three of which have been #1s) and four Platinum albums (including a #1) Nadine has sold in excess of 4.6 million copies in the UK alone with Girls Aloud. Nadine is often seen as "the voice" of the band. Nadine showed off her vocal talent whilst on tour with her bandmates in May and June 2005, and again during a UK arena tour in May and June 2006. Before hitting the big time, Nadine recorded a demo CD which was distributed to Louis Walsh (now co-manager of Girls Aloud) and The Late Late Show . This included " Fields Of Gold ", as well as " Somewhere Over The Rainbow ", "Love Is" and "Summertime". The demo CD is very rare as only a few copies were made (Nadine gave most to her friends and family), but one found its way onto EBay and earned a high price. Louis Walsh has promised to make Nadine a solo star if and when Girls Aloud go their separate ways. However, she has constantly denied reports she will leave the girl group to become a solo artist. On the 18 April , 2007 Nadine Coyle made it onto the front page of the Daily Star which featured new pictures of her from her new Sunsilk advert that is airing in June . In 2008, Nadine Coyle will make a cameo appearance in the re-make of the St. Trinians Movie , playing the part of a schoolgirl with Girls Aloud, which was filmed in Spring 2007. Nadine has also co-written a number of songs whilst in the group, including:
Other work Nadine has reportedly been approached by Gillette to advertise their female range of razors.

PERSONAL LIFE In 2004 Coyle split with her footballer boyfriend Neil McCafferty because of their busy schedules. The pair had met in school and had been dating since 2000, but would remain friends. Currently, she and her family are leasing a mansion in Huntington Beach, CA in order to jump start her career in Hollywood. Relationship with Jesse Metcalfe During Girls Aloud's promotional tour of Australia and New Zealand in February 2006 , Coyle met Desperate Housewives actor Jesse Metcalfe , and rumours of a relationship started, which Nadine initially denied. Despite this, there had been pictures in the tabloids of Nadine and Jesse together, and numerous reports of them on dates together in London. It was eventually confirmed that Nadine and Jesse were a couple, with the pair appearing in OK! Magazine to clear up false rumours about their relationship. This was a one-off for Nadine who usually likes to keep her personal life out of the public domain. When they were together, tabloids were rife with 'news' about Jesse's affairs. On November 16 , 2006 it was reported the couple had split up - with the end of the relationship being confirmed by Nadine's father.3 However, on November 28 , 2006 , New! magazine released pictures suggesting that Nadine and Jesse were back together. The pair later confirmed they were still an item after a short 'break' proved too much for them. Nadine had been frequently visiting L.A. since dating Jesse sparking rumours that, not only are the pair looking for a home and getting engaged, but also that she is set to launch a solo career. This was denied by the singer who is quoted as saying "who in their right mind would leave Britain's biggest girl group?" It was announced on March 19 , 2007 that Metcalfe entered rehab to be treated for alcoholism,http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Jesse+Metcalfe+goes+to+rehab-14609.html just days after rumours of marriage between the two.http://www.femalefirst.co.uk/celebrity/Jesse+Metcalfe+to+wed-14592.html |
