Saturdays: 'We want to crack America'

The Saturdays have vowed to follow in the footsteps of the Spice Girls by cracking America.

Frankie Sandford told the Daily Star Sunday that Stateside success will be the group's ultimate aim as they make plans for the future.

"No British girl group has made it in America since the Spice Girls but we are hoping to," she explained. "We worked with Rihanna's producers to give us more of an American sound."

Meanwhile, Mollie King claimed that Girls Aloud should reconsider their decision to reject offers from US labels.

"I think it's a bit weird that Nadine [Coyle] said they don't want to try and conquer America," she admitted. "I guess I can understand them not wanting to start at the bottom again but maybe we should all do it together."

The girlband's new single 'Issues' will be released tomorrow.
