Stooshe: "We're not divas for delaying album"

Stooshe don't care if people think they are "divas" for delaying the launch of their debut album.

The British girl group - comprising Courtney Rumbold, Alexandra Buggs and Karis Anderson - were initially set to release their first record 'London With The Lights On' at the end of last year, but postponed its drop till earlier this month.

Stooshe didn't want to compromise of the quality of their music.

Rumbold told British newspaper The Daily Star: ''We only [delayed] it because we're passionate about the music. We didn't want to put something out that was half-arsed.

She added: ''Maybe we've got more respect, maybe people just think we're divas, but either way it now sounds exactly as we wanted. We wanted to put it out there but we couldn't do it because we weren't happy with it. You upset fans by doing that, and then the questions start about whether we'll ever release it.''

Stooshe have a busy few months and will share the stage with Jennifer Lopez at the Barclaycard British Summer Time Hyde Park on July 14.

The stars - who supported the international songstress on her Dance Again world tour last year - are excited about seeing Lopez again.

Rumbold added: ''I can't wait to see Jennifer again. Her band and management are emailing us going: 'What are you guys doing? Can't wait to see you and chill out again', which is lovely, aft­er we did the tour with Jennifer. It'll be lovely to catch up with her - she's an amazing performer.''
