A US girl band star has barely aged a day 24 years after the group scored a huge international hit.
In 2000 3LW – made up of Adrienne Bailon, Naturi Naughton and Kiely Williams – released No More (Baby Ima Do Right).
And Adrienne, now 40, still looks as good as she did when she shot to fame with the group.
She recently took to Instagram to announce the relaunch of her YouTube channel, sending fans wild.
One wrote: “You look gorgeous!”
Another said: “Look at you, just glowing.” And a third added: “You look so beautiful.”
Between 2000 and 2002 3LW released a string of singles and three studio albums.
But drama hit the group when Naturi claimed she was forced out of the group after a number of altercations with Adrienne and Kiely.
Recalling one argument between them and Michelle Williams, Kiely’s mother and group’s manager, at the time of her departure, Naturi said: “There was an argument between me and Michelle, and Kiely and Adrienne are cursing me out.
“And before I know it, Kiely throws her plate of food all in my face —mashed potatoes, macaroni all in my hair, down my clothes, messing up my [hair]do! Nobody has the right to hit me.
“That’s not what I’m here for… to be physically abused. So I said, ‘Get me a flight back to Newark, New Jersey,’ and they wouldn’t even help me get a ticket.”
Adrienne and Kiely later formed Disney group The Cheetah Girls with Raven Symone and Sabrina Bryan.
They performed together from 2002 until 2008, releasing starring in three movies.
Adrienne and Naturi have since made up. Adrienne was co-host on US talk show The Real from 2014 until 2022.
In 2017 Naturi appeared on the show and Adrienne told her: “There was a lot that went on in that time, that now looking back we were so young and it was crazy and that I genuinely from the bottom of my heart I never meant any harm towards you.”
In 2016 Adrienne married gospel singer Israel Houghton and the coupled welcomed their first child together in 2022.
