'''Hear'Say''' were <!-- Do not change to "was". UK English proves that plural usage is correct. See WP:ENGVAR. --> a British pop group.  They were created through the [[ITV (TV network)|ITV]] reality TV show ''[[Popstars (British TV series)|Popstars]]'' in February 2001, the first UK series of the international ''[[Popstars]]'' [[Media franchise|franchise]]. The group, who were signed to [[Polydor Records]], originally consisted of [[Danny Foster (musician)|Danny Foster]], [[Myleene Klass]], [[Kym Marsh]], [[Suzanne Shaw]], and [[Noel Sullivan]].

Hear'Say achieved instant fame, breaking chart records with their debut single "[[Pure and Simple (song)|Pure and Simple]]" and the album ''[[Popstars (Hear'Say album)|Popstars]]''. However, their second album failed to match this success.

In January 2002, Marsh left Hear'Say due to conflicts with Klass and Sullivan. She was replaced by former [[Boom! (group)|Boom!]] member [[Johnny Shentall]] a month later. During a summer promotional tour, Hear'Say were constantly harassed by members of the public.<ref name="rollercoaster"/> "Lovin' Is Easy", the group's only single to be released with Shentall, failed to make a commercial impact. Hear'Say announced their split in October 2002, twenty months after their formation, citing "abuse from the public" as the main reason for their demise. After the band's break-up, all of the members went on to achieve individual success elsewhere in the entertainment industry.
