Former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton was spotted recently after a stint on Britain’s “Popstar to Operastar”. The singer dished on upcoming plans including her budding solo career and more.
See what the beautiful Miss Thornton had to say after the jump:
Nicole Scherzinger isn’t the only ex Pussycat Doll hoping to make solo impact in the charts, for Melody Thornton has generated some excitement for her own career with the help of new song ‘Sweet Vendetta’.
Last night, former Pussycat DollMelody Thornton proved once again that she is not just a pretty face. The starlet is a cast member on the hit ITV show ‘Pop Star To Opera Star’ . The show sees Pop musicians train in the genre of Opera, competing against each other week by week in the hope to be crowned the winner at the end of the series.
Pressing on post her stint with the Pussycat Dolls, Melody Thornton is currently hard at work on her debut solo album. Taking a break from her busy recording schedule, the 26 year old shot a new buzz clip, which sees her cover Lady GaGa‘s ‘Born This Way’, Katy Perry‘s ‘Firework’, and Rihanna’s hook on Kanye West‘s ‘All of the Lights’ in a unique mash-up.
Former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton continued her emergence from the shadows last night, with a rousing performance of the US national anthem at the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Clippers basketball game.
The 26 year old is reportedly working on her debut solo LP, although there is currently no word on whether she is signed to a major label as of yet. Based on this performance alone, they should be queuing up at her door.

It is no secret that the Pussycat Dolls is simply another name for Nicole Scherzinger’s gang of trusty backup dancers. This could not have been more evident than at ‘Fashion Rocks’ 2006 when Melody Thornton made the mistake of stealing the spotlight which caused Scherzinger to become obviously upset.
In fact, Scherzinger made it a point to position herself in front of Thornton while the latter was still singing her part of the song and attempted to force nudge her to return to the background. Watch the drama unfold around the 2:20 mark.

Peep this performance of former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton taking on Christina Aguilera’s chilling ballad ‘Hurt’. With talent like that, no wonder Ms. Thornton couldn’t but vent at the fact she was consistently over-shadowed.
Melody may need to exercise more vocal control, but it’s hard to deny she was the superior vocalist in the group. I can never understand why labels believe that the Diana Ross-Supremes model (one singer, the rest back-up’s) is still ‘in’. Surely giving everyone some form of individual shine (even if not the same amount) helps broaden the group’s appeal, hence increasing their fan-base, and ultimately increasing what is the exec’s primary concern – money! Same goes for the handling of Destiny’s Child, but that is a different story altogether…
Melody Thornton is renown for her somewhat unappreciated vocal contributions to the Pussycat Dolls. With the group having now disbanded, the talented songstress is striking out on her own.
In a recent interview with VIBE magazine, Thornton addressed many a topic including her reported feud with PCD front-woman Nicole Scherzinger, whether or not she has a solo deal, her future plans and more.
A new song from Melody Thornton surfaced today. The track, entitled ‘Love Gun’, was written and produced by Cee-Lo Green and was recorded during the studio sessions for her upcoming solo album. Give it a listen below:
