What are Alesha Dixon’s biggest songs?
As we know, Alesha rose to fame in R&B and Garage girl group Mis-Teeq, alongside Sabrina Washington and Su-Elise Nash.

In 2004 they were beginning to build up a fanbase in the States, touring and doing the rounds of chat shows.
However, their record label went bankrupt, and in 2005 the group split.
There has long been talk of a Mis-Teeq reunion and Alesha has said it would be a “disaster” if the band never came back together.
In April 2017, The Sun revealed Alesha was set for a seven-figure windfall after half of her royalties from her time in Mis-Teeq went entirely unpaid for more than ten years.
Alesha was known as a rapper during her time in the band, but branched out into a solo career when the group split.
She released two singles, but they didn’t achieve the same kind of success as Mis-Teeq’s work, and she was swiftly dropped by her record label.
However, her win on Strictly Come Dancing served to revitalise Alesha’s music career. Single ‘The Boy Does Nothing’ sold one million copies worldwide while 2008 album ‘The Alesha Show’ went platinum, and she toured the UK as a solo act.

She was previously married to MC Harvey, from English rap group So Solid Crew.
The two had dated since 2000 and got married in 2005, but divorced in 2006 after he had an affair with Pop Idol star Javine.
