After tabloidy squabbles, Spice Girls went from a quintet to a quartet and lost their audience; En Vogue shrank from a quartet to a trio and went out of style. It's tough for any group of divas to stay on top--they're often in 3-in. heels, after all--and just a few months ago, Destiny's Child, an R.-and-B. quartet that's now a trio, seemed to be tottering.
