Career
In 1999, Wood auditioned for the first Australian season of Popstars, a reality television show which aimed to create a new girl group. After selections for the group were finalised by the judges, Wood just missed out. However, after original member Chantelle Barry departed the group shortly after its inception, Wood was selected to replace her as the group's fifth member. The group became known as Bardot.
Popstars aired in early 2000 and became a ratings success. Bardot became the first Australian act to debut at number one with both its debut single, "Poison", and self-titled debut album. Further singles "I Should've Never Let You Go", "These Days", "ASAP", "I Need Somebody" and "Love Will Find A Way" all reached the top 20 on the Australian singles chart. Bardot also promoted their music internationally, with promotional tours across Singapore, Taiwan, New Zealand, India and the United Kingdom. Following the release of their second album, Play It Like That, Bardot disbanded in May 2002.
Wood briefly signed as a solo artist to Warner Music Australia and released her debut single, "What R U Waiting 4" in March 2004.
