Career

Griffiths was a member of an unsuccessful all-female band Orchid, who originally recorded the song "Sound of the Underground" in 2001. However their version was never released, and the song became a hit only when it was subsequently re-recorded and released by Louis Walsh's pop group Girls Aloud.
In 2003, Griffiths was one of the first of four students chosen by the public to appear on the second series of the BBC TV show Fame Academy when it was revealed in the press that she was the girlfriend of Formula One driver Jenson Button. Despite complaints that she was with a celebrity boyfriend and that her former recording and songwriting experience gave her an unfair advantage, she made it to the final eight before being voted out.
Although Griffiths did not get a recording contract after the show, one of the songs she co-wrote with fellow student Alistair Griffin, "A Heart Can't Lie", was included on his debut album Bring It On which reached No. 12 in the UK Albums Chart in January 2004. Shortly after leaving the show it was reported that she had been given an unreleased song by Robbie Williams and Guy Chambers to record, but this was never released.
