With the Sugababes, Buchanan had six number one singles and two number one studio albums, making the Sugababes one of the most successful British pop acts of the 21st century. Buchanan was asked to leave the group in September 2009 and was replaced by Jade Ewen. In October 2019, Buchanan returned to the group alongside the other two original members. On 20 July 2012, Buchanan and her former Sugababes colleagues, Buena and Donaghy confirmed their reunion.
