Reality TV stars and pop singers The Cheeky Girls are now both working in car dealerships in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, in case you were wondering.

The pair, who are actually called Monica Taylor and Gabriela Irimia are twin sisters who shot to fame in the early 2000s on Popstars: The Rivals.

Despite being described by judge Pete Waterman as 'the worst act I've ever seen' they became inexplicably popular, even achieving two top ten singles.

One of those was called 'Cheeky Song (Touch My Bum)', which - for the uninitiated - gives you a decent flavour of what they were like.

The Romanian identical twins are now working in the same job, with Monica following her sister into the business after a difficult few years for the live music industry.

Monica has been doing some baking, too.

That said, the pair do seem to have a knack of landing on their feet, and they've taken to their new roles very well.

So well - in fact - that there's a chance they might even one day open up their own dealership together.

That would be quite something.

Gabriela was recently revealed to be working at Minstergate Hyundai in York, and now it seems her sister Monica has been working at another of the South Korean car brand's stores, this time at Read Hyundai in Boston, Lincolnshire.

Monica told The Mirror: "Me and Gaby need a solid business for our future and cars will always be good business.

"Being an entertainer is fantastic, but like it was with Covid, if you don't have a solid job or business how do you survive?

"Gigs all disappeared for two years during Covid but we didn't stop making money.

"Sometimes we only sleep two-three hours to do the gigs and get to work, but it's worth it."

Gabriela recently told The Sun that she wants to 'learn the ropes' of car sales, then branch out together with her sister.

The Transylvanian twins' mother Margit - who wrote the aforementioned 'Touch My Bum' in just 10 minutes, said that this career change is a 'logical step' for the pair.

She said: "Let me ask you this: can you be a Cheeky Girl when you're 60?

"She needs to have a business and realises that girl fashion is now cars. Women are changing their cars every year."

Well, at least we can be sure that they've got the right work ethic for the job, given their schedule.

Good luck to them.
