History
2000-2001: Formation, debut album and rising fame and break up
In 2000, Giant Records a mainly dance music label, sought to create a girl group to rival other such groups of the time, such as Dream, 3LW, and Eden's Crush. The label's hook for this new group would be that its members would be international to appeal to a larger fan base. Auditions were held, and the five members selected represented five distinct nationalities. Kate Macalino, from the Philippines, had worked as a model in her home country. Tal B. Hajek, from Israel, was a devout Jew who moved to the USA in 1997 and admired rock singers. Christina Rumbley, from the United States, had moved from Florida to Los Angeles to pursue a music career. Andi Murphy M. was from the UK and had a passion for dancing. Gaby Equiz, from Mexico, dreamed of fame. Together, these girls became the International 5, more commonly referred to as i5. In the spring of 2000, i5 was featured on the soundtrack to the dance film Center Stage with their song "First Kiss." By the summer of 2000, the girls had almost completed their debut album and began touring with Nickelodeon's All That Music and More tour. On this tour, i5 promoted its single "Distracted," which was written by Steve Kipner, who had previously written hits for Christina Aguilera, Brandy Norwood and Dream. On September 12, 2000, Giant Records released i5's self-titled CD. the album failed to chart and was a commercial failure, the label was not able to release any more singles or significantly promote the album due to its imminent folding. Once Giant Records folded, Warner Bros. Records, its parent absorbed as well, and i5 no longer had a label. Though the members of i5 initially sought a new record label, they failed to find one, and parted ways in 2001.

Sweet N' Sassy
by: i5I am all-girl,
In this boy's world
But that's okay 'cause
I don't think of it
In those terms
I just give 'em mine
Don't even think 'em twice
When it comes to what I do
I make my moves right
And even though sometimes
I may seem kinda shy
Don't let this impulse
Let me feel like
I don't care why
I'm a sweet and sassy girl
I've got what it
Takes to change the world
Holding on to what I believe
I'm in control of my destiny
I just keep it real
I always know the deal
No matter what they say
It don't affect
The way I feel
I see nothing wrong
With having a little fun
When I want someone
Don't hesistate to
Turn him on
That's just the way I am
Most people don't understand
Secretly they wish they
Could be just like me
I'm a sweet and sassy girl
I've got what it takes
To change the world
Holding on to what I believe
I'm in control of my destiny
I'm a sweet and sassy girl
I've got what it takes
To change the world
Holding on to what I believe
I'm in control of my destiny
Sweet and sassy you see
No gravity or anybody
Will hold me back from
What I truly believe
There's no stopping me
I'm a sweet and sassy girl
I've got what it takes
To change the world
Holding on to what I believe
I'm in control of my destiny
