The Saturdays have admitted that they would lose out in a chart battle with Girls Aloud, Sugababes and Pussycat Dolls.

The girlband, who released their debut album Chasing Lights last year, insisted that they are not yet trying to compete with more established groups.

Bandmember Rochelle Wiseman told Virgin Media: “We’re the queens of new girlbands – but we’re not trying to ever rival Sugababes, Pussycat Dolls [or] Girls Aloud yet, because they’ve got such a big fanbase and it would be impossible.”

Vanessa White added: “We’ll call ourselves the princesses then, not the queens, because we’re the babies.”

The stars recently flew out to Los Angeles to start work on their second album.

They released their latest single ‘Work’ last month.

The Saturdays have revealed that they are flying to Los Angeles this week to work on their second album.

The girlband aim to complete the follow-up to Chasing Lights – their 2008 debut – in time for a September or October release.

“Hopefully when we get out there we might get a chance to work with Evan Sturken and Carl Rogers, who wrote ‘Issues’ and did a lot of Rihanna’s stuff,” group member Rochelle Wiseman told DS.

“But we’ve got a pretty strict schedule while we’re out there so we’re seeing what happens.”

The Saturdays previously told DS that their new album will show a progression from their debut.

“I swam commando, I swear on my life, on holiday,” she told Juice FM’s Breakfast with Adam and Leanne.

Probed for more information by her bandmates, Wiseman insisted: “I’m not telling you who with, that’s enough, you’ve got the truth!”
