The Buggs conspiracy theory

The conspiracy theory arose after the disappearance of the Buggs and the new fame of the PopBeat Mixers. Many stated that the PopBeat Mixers were actually the Buggs taking a whole new identity, although the girls denied this claim. Some argued that they are really different people.

According to fans, there are a lot of hints that they could be the Buggs:
 * The height of both girls are almost exactly the same.
 * Similar music styles
 * They both play instruments
 * Their voices are similar
 * Also came from Maryland

Aside from that, there are also some reasons that they are a different band. Here's the listed reasons:
 * The Star Talk episode of them gave away a lot of hints. Bobbie's green hair, Penelope's blue one shoulder top, Rachel's red vest, and Alice's pink striped armwarmer are some of the hints. Also, the design on Alice's top could be a hint that she's River Keys.
 * PopBeat Mixers focuses more on lyrics related to candies and sweets. Plus their songs also have a slight 80's feel.
 * Their singing voices are a lot different and usually rendered in a high pitch.
 * Their age are very different. Penelope is the eldest while Bobbie being the youngest.
