The singer confirmed that she felt abandoned after Louis Walsh snubbed his protégés following their victory on Popstars: The Rivals in 2002.
"Louis didn't speak to us for the first two weeks we were a band," Kimberley told the Daily Star. "There are only so many times you'll ring before giving up. We worked solely with the record company and basically managed ourselves."
She added: "For the first couple of years it was hard as my phone would be ringing constantly so I found myself totally out of my depth and needed someone to take over."
Girls Aloud's new single 'The Loving Kind' is released on Monday.
