Alesha Dixon’s career began in 1999, when Alesha met Sabrina Washington as they joined Dance Attic (a popular dance class school in West London), and the both of them became a duo. In 2000, when both Alesha Dixon and Washington were auditioning, they met with Su-Elise Nash, and formed a trio. Soon, they were signed to Telstar Records with the addition of a new member, Zena McNally, and Alesha Dixon & Sabrina Washington became the popular Garage/R&B girl band, Mis-Teeq. However, right after the release of their debut single Why?, Zena McNally had left the band to pursue her own solo career that has yet to succeed.

Alesha & Sabrina went on as just a trio, and released their debut album. In 2001, they released their first album, Lickin’ On Both Sides featuring hits such as All I Want, One Night Stand, B With Me and Roll On / This Is How We Do It. In 2003, Alesha & Sabrina released their second album, Eye Candy featuring hits such as Scandalous (a song that they are most famous for), Can’t Get It Back and Style. Following the two albums, they toured the United States in 2004 and released their American debut album Mis-Teeq, a compilation of the two albums released in Europe and Asia. At the same time, Alesha Dixon also appeared as a dancer in the video for N*E*R*D’s single Alesha Dixon Wants To Move, from their second album Fly or Die.
