Saturdays 'stole' song from Kelly Clarkson
The Saturdays have revealed that their new single 'Forever Is Over' was originally written for Kelly Clarkson.

The track, which was penned by former Busted star James Bourne, was snapped up by the five-piece as the first release from their second album Wordshaker.

"We heard the song playing while at our record company and went into the office where James was talking to the head of the label," Mollie King told the Daily Star.

"We said: 'We have to have that song'. Then we found out that Kelly Clarkson was fighting for it but he gave it to us. James is lovely."

Meanwhile, singer Rochelle Wiseman insisted that the pop-rock sound of the new single marks a "bigger sound" for the group.

"The single's got a full-on pop-rock sound and I think it shows off our voices really well. It's similar to the album in that it's got a bigger sound production-wise, but not all the songs are as rocky like that," she told DS.

The Saturdays release 'Forever Is Over' today. Their album Wordshaker is out on October 12.
