Scandal'us (or Scandal'Us) were the winners of the Australian Popstars 2 in 2001 (successors of Bardot, the winners of the first Australian Popstars in 2000). They won an ARIA Award for the #1 debut single "Me Myself & I".1 Their second and final single, "Make Me Crazy", only reached #30. Their debut album, Startin' Somethin', debuted and peaked at #2 on the ARIAnet Albums Chart. The group disbanded in 2002 claiming each member wanted to pursue their own careers as well as having difficulties of finding a new record label after leaving Festival Mushroom Records. Another popular song from the album was "I'm Not Gonna Cry (Na Na Na)", written by Los Angeles songwriters Gordon Pogoda and John Keller. According to one Scandal'us poll from 2002, it was voted as the 2nd most popular song of the album.2

Tamara Jaber released two solo singles, Ooh Ahh and Hard For Me under the name "Tamara". Both reached the ARIA Top 30. Tamara is the only person signed to her radio personality husband Kyle Sandilands's label "King Kyle Records". He was criticised for promoting his girlfriend's single on his popular radio show. A solo album was meant for release but never eventuated. Tamara in 2008 sought a record deal in Los Angeles, USA.
Around 2003, Jason Bird recorded a single to be distributed through his dance workshop website. He performed the track on Channel Nine's "Mornings With Kerri-Anne" show.
Anna and younger sister Francesca (who has a hit in 2002 with the song "Way of the World") formed a jazz/pop group Pearl. They perform at weddings and other booked events in their hometown of Adelaide.
