Ten girls and ten boys were chosen as finalists by judges Walsh, Pete Waterman and Geri Halliwell. These finalists then took to the stage participating in weekly Saturday night live performances (alternating weekly between the girls and boys).

    Coyle after show in 2009

    In 2009, Girls Aloud decided they would partake in a hiatus to pursue solo projects.[16] That same year, Coyle collaborated with Boyz II Men for their album Love, recording a cover of the Take That song "Back for Good", although the song was cut from the final track listing.[17] Coyle also worked with Jay Sean,[18] although the duet was later scrapped.[19]

    Coyle announced plans to release a solo album during Girls Aloud's hiatus.

    Madonna and Christina Aguilera, as a publicist and Bruce Garfield as her manager.[23][24] Early reports indicated three major record labels interested in Coyle,[25] In April 2010, it was reported she had signed to Geffen Records.[26] The deal later fell through.[27] In August 2010, Coyle officially signed a deal with grocery store chain Tesco's new record label, releasing the album through her own Black Pen Records imprint.[2][27]

    She worked with a number of famous songwriters and producers during recording sessions, such as Desmond Child, Guy Chambers, Mike Elizondo, Steve Booker, Toby Gad, Tony Kanal and newcomer Ricci Riccardi.[21][24][28] According to an interview with Booker, Coyle had worked on song ideas using GarageBand which she then presented to Booker in England to work on together further.[29] The producer said, "She was singing her songs to loops, and then I took the loops out and rewrote the music from scratch to her ideas."[29] He described her songs as "very pop".[29] Booker also worked on songs to show off Coyle's vocals: "Because she's got such a belting voice, I tried a couple of things where she could really belt," he said.[29][30]

    The album was preceded by the release of her debut single, the title track "

    Insatiable". Co-written with Guy Chambers and produced by Ricci Riccardi, the song has an "80s feel" and "a harder, guitar-led sound."[31][32]
    The single peaked at number twenty-six in the UK Singles Chart.

    In November 2012, Coyle reunited with the rest of Girls Aloud to celebrate their tenth anniversary. On 18 November 2012, the band released their new single "Something New" which was also the official charity single for Children in Need.

They performed the single, titled "I Could Be" together on that year's annual Children in Need telethon.

    In July 2017, it was announced that Coyle had signed a recording deal with Virgin EMI Records.[37] She released her new single, "Go to Work", on 8 September 2017.[38] In February 2018, it was announced that Coyle will release a four-track EP Nadine in April 2018.[39] "Girls on Fire" was the first track to be released from the EP, on 8 February 2018.[40]

    ]

    In October 2022, Nadine sang a cover of The Cranberries classic Zombie, as it was voted the number 1 Irish song of all time by RTE2FM listeners. Her performance gathered great reviews.[42]

    In July 2023, Coyle attended the European premiere of Barbie and released a new single, a cover of Snow Patrol's classic "Chasing Cars", Coyle's version is titled "If I Lay Here (Chasing Cars)".[43]

    In May and June 2024, Coyle and her Girls Aloud bandmates got back together for an arena tour titled The Girls Aloud Show in memory of their late bandmate Sarah Harding.[44]

    Other ventures

    As a member of Girls Aloud, Coyle has also appeared in the

    E4 documentary series Girls Aloud: Off the Record and a one-off variety show entitled The Girls Aloud Party. Coyle made a cameo appearance in Natasha Bedingfield's video for "I Wanna Have Your Babies".[45]

    Coyle contributed to the book

    Transworld imprint Bantam Press.[46][47] The book featured unseen photographs and included insights into the members' personal lives, their success together, style tips and "everything we've learned about life, love and music."[47][48]

    As a member of Girls Aloud, Coyle has also endorsed

    KitKat, Nintendo DS, Samsung, Sunsilk and Pandora.[49][50]

    In December 2009, Coyle visited her hometown of Derry to successfully break the record of the most trees planted in one site in an hour by 100 volunteers.[51] Coyle has also dedicated some of her time to charities, including the Northern Ireland children's hospice.[51]

    Coyle published her new record label Black Pen Records, which additionally released her debut album Insatiable and her further singles.[52] In 2012, Coyle served as a guest judge for an episode of the series America's Next Top Model.[53]

    In March 2018, Coyle appeared in Fabulous Magazine with a cover photo shoot and feature interview where she discussed life after Girls Aloud.[54]

    In 2019, Coyle participated in the

    nineteenth series of I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! and finished in fifth place.[55]

    Personal life

    Coyle had a cancer scare when she found a lump in her breast when she was 17.[56]

    In 2006, Coyle moved from Northern Ireland to Los Angeles, California. This led to her constantly commuting back and forth between the US and the UK for her projects with Girls Aloud and as a solo artist. Whilst living in Los Angeles, Coyle opened an Irish pub restaurant in Sunset Beach, California named Nadine's Irish Mist in 2008 as a family business, which would allow family members to live near her and help her run the business.[57][58][59] In 2013, her estimated wealth was £6 million according to that year's Sunday Times Rich List.[60]

    On 15 August 2013, Coyle announced on her Instagram account that she was expecting a child.[61][62] She further confirmed her reunion with ex-fiancé Jason Bell, who is the father of her daughter. Their daughter, Anaíya Bell, was born on 10 February 2014.[63]

    In 2015, after nine years in Los Angeles, Coyle closed down Nadine's Irish Mist and moved back to Northern Ireland to raise her daughter Anaíya. She stated that she decided to close the restaurant as the business gradually took a toll on her overworked family members and that she was tired of being approached by film and television producers who wanted to use the restaurant for their projects.[64] She also stated that she was becoming homesick for Northern Ireland whilst living in Los Angeles.[65]

    Coyle and Bell split in 2019 "due to their increasingly distanced lives", as Bell remained in the United States when Coyle returned to Northern Ireland.[66] However, by 2021 the two were living together in Northern Ireland to allow Bell to co-parent Anaíya during the COVID-19 pandemic.[67]
