Bardot was an Australian pop girl group which formed in 1999, consisting of Belinda Chapple, Sophie Monk, Sally Polihronas, Katie Underwood and Tiffani Wood.

The group formed on the Australian reality television series Popstars, which attracted high ratings and significant media exposure.

[2][3] Following the departure of Underwood, Bardot released their second album Play It Like That (2001), featuring the top five Australian singles "ASAP" and "I Need Somebody",[4] before parting ways in early 2002.

[6] Bardot formed on the Seven Network's first series of Popstars, a talent reality television show which sought to produce a five-piece girl group.

[7] After numerous elimination rounds, Chantelle Barry, Belinda Chapple, Sophie Monk, Sally Polihronas and Katie Underwood were selected.

During interviews years later, Barry clarified that she was forced to leave after taking Monk's weekly $100 money allowance, and forgetting to give it back to her.

Popstars began airing in February 2000[12] and followed Bardot during its recording sessions, photo and music video shoots, promotional activities and first live concert at the Sydney State Theatre.

Considered a unique and fresh format at the time, it attracted on average more than 2.6 million viewers per episode, making it one of Australia's most successful, highest-rating programs of 2000.

[21] During this time, Bardot made a promotional trip to Singapore and other parts of south-east Asia, where the group had attracted a large fanbase.

Ultimately the production was cancelled before it commenced due to financial pressures and shortly after, Underwood would go on to collaborate with dance act Disco Montego.

[33] In August 2001, Bardot performed the Village People's "Go West" at the opening ceremony of the 2001 Goodwill Games in Brisbane[34] and in October, released the second single from their second album, "I Need Somebody".

[40] In March they embarked on their second national tour with Australian boy band Human Nature[41] and performed at the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

[54] In April 2020, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of their debut single "Poison", Wood, Underwood and Chapple reunited remotely online to perform the song.
