I prefer the album version of Hush Hush too.

I agree Neigbours_Fan, she has a beautiful voice indeed.....Melody could do well as a solo singer if they marketed her right and gave her the right material....she could be the next Christina Aguilera

....Lol I suppose Robin finds it more lucrative to have a band, how else is she going to continue these PCD brand endorsements i.e. clothes,underwear, make up too apparently etc with Nicole only?....how else is she going to pay for the plastic surgery aswell? lol (bitchy I know! but its true look at Robin's face)

....Money I guess is the reason here.....I don't think anyone would care because Nicole is the only one that most recognisable of the lot.....Yeah, Kim and Melody could do well....does anyone know what are Jessica and Ashley doing though? xo

well tbh i guess they are

they started off as a Burlesque group with Christina Applegate, Carmen Electra, Kasey Campbell, Kiva Dawson, Antonietta Macri, Erica Breckels, Katie Bergold, Erica Gudis and Lindsley Allen in 1999.

Christina Aguilera joined the troup for a while in 2002.

Christina left and Carmen, Kasey, Christina, Kiva, Antonietta, Erica, Katie, Lindsley and Erika were dropped and were replaced with Carmit Bachar, Cyia Batten, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta and Kimberley Wyatt and were turned into a music group.

Nicole Scherzinger, Melody Jones, Kaya Jones joined in 2003 and they became a lounge act.

Kasey and Cyia left in 2005.

Kaya left in 2006 (you can see her in Don't Cha).

Asia joined and left in 2007.

Carmit left in 2008.

Now we're here .

I absolutely adore Ashley Roberts. She's beautiful, talented and has an amazing personality and I really dont get why she wasnt used more in PCD!

You have a point Oh, and don't forget the 'PCD' workout video. That must have paid for several rounds of botox for Ms Antin
I have no idea what Jessica and Ashley will be doing. I hope they will be successful in whatever they do anyway.
I would love Melody to have a solo career, but I can't help but think that if she stays with their current label she will be screwed over.

tbh all 5 can sing (well not so much Kimberly )

I didn't know about the fitness video but I assume Nicole was the one at the front and centre with all the attention within the video?....LOL! true, its like the old saying 'a fool and its money is parted easily' (something like that!), Robin looks hideous with all that work done to her face....Yeah I hope so, they can all hold a note especially Melody even though Kimberly is weak vocally, I liked the other girls better to Nicole....I hope Melody's smart enough to walk away from them because they screwed her and the other girls (Kim, Ashley & Jess) over with PCD.....xo

when was the fitness video out? i think Jessica still had her black hair back then

The rest of the girls didn't even appear in it apparently. Nicole only had a special appearance. The video was mostly Robin and dancers from the Las Vegas show.
The video came out this year.

*EDIT* Quote from an Amazon review -
Pussycat Dolls (PCD) Workout DVD is led by Robin Antin, the creator of the group. She is joined by Christina from the group, Girlicious, and 3 ladies from her burlesque show in Vegas. Nicole Scherzinger only shows up in the performance section of the Buttons routine.

another way to line Robin's pockets.....well of course Nicole's going to be in it, after all she is Robin's favourite.....face of the brand....Robin's like the male version of Diddy (who is a rubbish manager, can't even keep his bands together very well, only continues to create more bands to keep that money pumping into his bank account ) xo

Chrystina i always knew she was her favourite from Girlicious i wouldn't be surprised if she ends in the PCD one day

Girlicious have kind of dropped off the face off the earth havent they? no word on them...SFNPD was dreadful, so glad CW have cancelled it!....the first time round Asia screwed them over, bit of a slap in the face I guess? and the Girlicious band she created, was awful....stick to your day job Robin ...xo

First point: Will the majority of the world even notice the difference in line-up? Since alot of the time(make that always) it's like Nicole and her backup buddies.

Second point: On a more serious note, I don't think Nicole is the strongest singer so I don't know why the marketing/whoever are determined to maker her always sing lead. I've always thought Melody deserved it more.

Girlicious had lots of success in Canada.................but thats it when Tiffany got fired and they disapeared but i've heard there new material and its not bad actually but yeah SFTND sucked . The point of that show was to search for a new member for the PCD not find a member then drop her a week later poor Asia she won all that for nothing what a waste.

I don't think anyone will tbh....Like how Jessicas hair went red like carmit's who left....didn't really make a difference...at the end of the day, its all about Nicole and without her Robin is screwed and so is she....

I agree with you there too sparklyblue171, Melody has a stronger voice than Nicole's hands down....they haven't given Melody a chance to shine really and the others too....I suppose they chose Nicole for her looks, stage presence more than her voice....they so have shot themselves in the foot with this....xo

1. It depends when Carmit left nobody noticed cause they dyed Jessica's hair red like Carmits and the rest got makeovers (Carmit and Jessica look scarily alike )

2. They both really talented but i think Melody is better

I didn't warm to Girlicious much, not my cup of tea and the girls themselves look very young....I'm sure Asia chose not to be in the band herself because she wanted to pursue a solo career instead....she got some exposure off the back of it atleast....xo

Correction

She was in the "Sway" video!

Our good friend Robin Antin was the 'extra' in the Don't Cha video...limelight hogger too!

she was in both shes that "mystery 7th dancer" in the background when they dance i always got her confused with Carmit and Jessica until i paused a video of it and saw 7 girls instead of 6 and yeah Robin makes a small appearance

most of them were 18 to 20 but i didn't mind i actually prefer Like Me to Don't cha and i think Natalie can out dance them all and i haven't heard much from Asia she won then was kicked out/quit and just disapeared (if im honest i would've predicted Asia would be gone from PCD no matter how long she was with them she just didn't fit in she was too short, over powered the girls and looked different from them though i didn't expect her to leave in the next week)

bloody heck thats really young isnt it?! wonder how the parents of these girls feel, If I had a daughter I wouldn't let her go on that show at all.....lol I prefer Don't Cha even though it was a cover....Lol, I think Nicole and Asia would have clashed, since Asia has a strong personality....Asia did the right thing by not joining the band, I very much doubt Asia would have played second fiddle to Nicole like the others have....xo

I think they had a girl who was 17 on the show but yeah quite young but its America i guess they do those sort of stuff over there. Yeah Asia would upstage everybody maybe even Nicole but i don't get what happened to Asia cause she wins the show, does a few performances then dissapears then its revealed that shes been dropped did she quit or was she fired? Asia refuses to say when asked and Nicole always says she quit cause she either couldn't handle dancing in high heel shoes or she wanted to go solo and things just seem odd to me.

I suppose that goes over there....yup, I guess she was a threat to Nicole to some extent ....http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/p...dolls-5556.php well, according to this article, it was Asia's call to not join them to pursue a solo career instead....more power to her.....even though according to wiki apparently she signed with inc records, did some modeling for diddys fashion line and now shes back with the knicks football team dancing/cheerleading (something like that).....Apparently, the finale was pretaped so she quit before aired then?....haha, Nicole really said that? xo

So long as they keep Nicole, I couldnt care who the girls who do the dancing in the background and sing backup vocals are.

Well if Asia did quit it was kinda rude and stupid to quit that early but its good aswell because she would never fit in she shouldn't have won in the first place. Anyway wow at the finale thing Melissa R or Melissa S deserved it they would fit in fine and perfectly and yeah she says it all the time in radio interviews about the high heels and hard work ect
