Girls Aloud are celebrating a decade at the top of the pop game, when asked which moment has been the biggest highlight over the past 10 years, Kimberley said: "When we won the Brit award that was a really amazing night for all of us."
The girls tweeted a picture of them having a "last minute huddle" before the conference.
It was also announced today that Girls Aloud have become the biggest selling girl group of the 21st century, based on single sales.
