The Popbitch item led me to this curious new item from MTV Asia...

Sugababes Appeal To Former Bandmate

Sugababes Keisha and Mutya are still concerned about the mysterious disappearance of their former bandmate, Siobhan. According to BBC's Radio 1, the girls still haven't had a proper explanation despite Siobhan's disappearance almost a year ago. They recalled Siobhan telling them she was off to the loo, and then vanished.
"We'd love to know why, you know, we were kinda stranded in Japan a day before we had to do a show in front of thousands, performing 'Overload' and us two going on stage by ourselves," they said.

"We'd just like to know, you know, why you said 'I'm comin' back in two minutes' and you never came back again. Then they came back and said 'Oh Siobhan's left 'cause she wants to do fashion photography. But then, a couple of weeks ago we read that she's doing a solo career."

"At the end of the day, a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. So if that was her way of splitting off and doing her own thing... then, whatever." -- SP

Is this an honest-to-God disappearance? Should someone be concerned? And what is the deal with their names?

And I have to say, MTV Asia's international news page has hysterically funny stories, most less than 200 words, and apparently written by someone who combines laziness with irony, or a less-than-convincing command of the language.
