Biography

Five (formerly styled 5ive) was a British 5-member pop group/boy band put together in 1997 by the same team that formed the Spice Girls. Signed by Simon Cowell, they enjoyed fair success worldwide, but particularly in the UK, parts of Europe, Russia, parts of Asia, Brazil, Israel, Australia, New Zealand and USA. They disbanded on 27 September 2001, after selling almost 20 million records, and having 11 top ten singles and 4 top ten albums in the UK. The five members were Scott Robinson, Ritchie Neville, J Brown, Abz Love and Sean Conlon. Four of the five original members briefly reformed the group on 27 September 2006, but only 7 months after announcing a comeback, Five made an announcement via their official website they would again disband.
