Liberty X (originally called Liberty) are a British pop vocal group formed by the five members who were eliminated from the final ten qualifiers of the 2001 season of the ITV show Popstars. The group consisted of Tony Lundon, Kevin Simm, Michelle Heaton, Kelli Young and Jessica Taylor. The group went on to achieve ten consecutive UK Top 20 singles, and various charting singles worldwide, leading to greater commercial success than the winners of the 2001 series, Hear'Say. Liberty X disbanded in early 2007, but re-formed a year later in 2008, for a one-off appearance in Belfast, performing their greatest hits.
On 18 October 2012, it was announced that Liberty X would be reforming, along with several other pop bands such as Five, Atomic Kitten and B*Witched.

Famous quotes containing the word liberty:
“With liberty and pleasant weather, the simplest occupation, any unquestioned country mode of life which detains us in the open air, is alluring. The man who picks peas steadily for a living is more than respectable, he is even envied by his shop-worn neighbors. We are as happy as the birds when our Good Genius permits us to pursue any outdoor work, without a sense of dissipation.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
