Girl Aloud Sarah Harding has said she regularly uses MySpace but under a false name so she can socially network without revealing her pop star status. She told Sky News Online's Technofile that she is a big fan of the web, using it for shopping and social networking. On using MySpace she commented: "Why would you go on under your real name? I've gone on there and put it under a different name. I just did it for a laugh". Harding says she won't even tell her bandmates what her secret identity is.
Meanwhile bandmate Nicola Roberts was asked about all the fake Girls Aloud MySpace pages that have been set up, which masquerade as some kind of official page. Roberts said she thought there were about ten such pages, observing: "It's a nightmare because people thing they're talking to you".
