Scandal'us: Where are the members of the band now?

After the success of Bardot, Popstars was keen to create another band and so in the second season, they formed Scandal'us.

Made up of Tamara Jaber, Anna Belperio, Jason Bird, Simon Ditcham, Daniela Scala, their first single, Me, Myself & I, debuted at number one but their follow-up single Make Me Crazy didn't do well and no other singles were released.

Less than a year after they released their album Startin' Somethin', they had been disbanded.

But what happened to the girls and guys from the band?

Tamara Jaber

Tamara was the only member of the band to get her own solo contract after the band broke up, signing with her boyfriend at the time, shock jock Kyle Sandilands' record label, King Kyle Records.

She released two solo singles Ooh Ahh and Hard for Me but Kyle was criticised for promoting her music on his radio show on 2DayFM.

Tamara then became a member of girl group Scarlett Belle for three years before returning to her solo career.

In 2008, Tamara and Kyle married but it was not to last and they split two years later in 2010.

After the break-up, Tamara relocated to the US where, as the pandemic hit, she was in her final semester of a degree in communications and media technology at the Academy of Art University, San Francisco.

Tamara, 41, and her fiancé Billy Kokkinis, the owner of celebrity gym City Gym, welcomed their first child together in October.

Anna Belperio

Adelaide-born Anna returned to South Australia after the band split but continued to make music. She was part of a wedding duo, Music By Pearl, for a while but now seems to have disappeared from the public eye.

Maybe one day she'll make music again.

Jason Bird

Jason continued his pursuit of music and dance after the band split and even got a great job working behind the scenes in TV.

"I was a resident choreographer on So You Think You Can Dance a couple of years back which was a lot of fun," he told news.com.au.

Since then, he has married his partner, Daniel Morrison, and the couple flip houses as he continues to gig in Fremantle, Western Australia.

Simon Ditcham

Simon was brutally honest about why he applied to be on Popstars Australia.

"The fame is the real reason I went into Scandal’us to begin with," he admitted in 2015.

"I didn’t want to be a singer or a dancer but I thought it was the vehicle that I could use to get famous and successful enough to then communicate a message that I felt needed to be communicated."

And that message isn't what you think – he revealed that in 2013 he had found spirituality.

"God just wants us to live happily and love each other as he commanded, which is the biggest concern because we obviously don’t apply that ... we don’t live it," he told news.com.au

However, after that interview, the Tasmanian seemed to disappear and stopped updating his social media accounts.

Daniela Scala

Daniela blamed Tamara's desire for a solo career as the reason why the band broke up so quickly. “Tamara (Jaber) wanted to go solo, that was the whole reason (the band broke up)," she told news.com.au in 2015.

She also revealed that the pair haven't spoken in years: “I don’t try to keep track of people that I’m not interested in."

She went back to Adelaide after the split and taught singing and performing.

In 2015, Daniela had another crack at fame on The Voice but she failed to make it through the audition stage with judge Jessie J telling her: "I think the best thing for you to do honestly is to keep performing, just keep practicing."
