Their debut album Make It Come True was released in 1992 and contained four ARIA top 50 singles, including the #1 hit, "Take It From Me".

Years later, they decided to form a pop group, and through their dance teacher Janice Breen, met Noel MacDonald, a singer, songwriter and jingle producer who saw promise in them.

During those two years he had continually presented his idea of an all-girl pop group aimed directly at the neglected younger teen market to virtually all the local record labels, but only Mushroom and BMG expressed any interest in signing them.

In April 1993, Girlfriend released Girl's Life, a Japan-exclusive album, consisting of songs from Make It Come True, mostly re-recorded with Japanese vocals.

She later enjoyed minor success with the hit "Sick with Love" which peaked at number 21 on the ARIA Charts,[5] and released an album, Malaria.

The video featured band member Siobhann Heidenriech miming to Cowell's spoken lines in the opening to the song.

In November 2010, former member Melanie Alexander provided guest vocals on the song "Falling for the Dance Floor" with Australian DJ, Stonedog.

The track appears on the compilation album Club Anthems Asia, released through Hong Kong-based independent dance music label Volume Up Records.
