New Video: Girlicious – ‘Maniac’

Published: Wednesday 5th May 2010 by Sam

Trying trio Girlicious are making another crack stardom with new single ‘Maniac’, the video of which premièred today. Check it out below…

Though the song is another generic Pop by-the-numbers cut, it’s admittedly not that bad an effort. As for the video; despite questionable editing towards the end (too choppy and dark), I rather enjoyed it. Slick, solid-ish choreography and sass served up by the bucket-load, the ladies have clearly upped their game. Whether or not folk will actually take them seriously will be interesting to see. (The silly group-name doesn’t help their cause, though). In any case, time will tell…

Your thoughts?

    LOL the WAY you cut Tiffanie out of that photo! 😀

  2. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    These h*** are just a second rate PCD. NO-ONE WILL EVER come close to touching the Queens, PCD

  3. Bee May 5, 2010

    ****Cough***Danity Kane blew PCD out the water****cough****

    Thatisall.

  4. thatmangojuice May 5, 2010

    well the video is a million times better than their last effort ‘Baby Doll’ which was a hot low budget mess

  5. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    Danity Kane blew PCD out of the wate???? WTF? Pussycat Dolls are more successful, they’ve had more hits, sold more records, are more ingrained in public consciousness. Apart from the blog/MTV crowd, who remembers Danity Kane?

  6. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    Last time I checked, danity Kane had 2 top 40 US hits, PCD have 8. And six consecutive #1s on the Dance club play chart. DK who????

  7. Who May 5, 2010

    DK was more succesfull in the USA than PCD
    Lets face it people pcd did good international but DK took over the US
    Welcome to the dollhouse was 1000x better dan Doll domination SO IN YO FACE

  8. Bee May 5, 2010

    Hun commercial success due to being internationally marketed is different from actually being great. We (society) can be sold anything if it’s repeatedly thrown in our face and if it’s the only thing like it at the time had DK had the same marketing we would not be having this conversation….we’d be congratulating each other on recognising greatness.

    LOL, I’m kidding…but I’m not.

  9. CC May 5, 2010

    Hmm was actually not that bad…better than i was expecting.

    I thought one of them got arrested for having s*** loads of cocaine like a month or two ago though?

    And I really wish they werent called Girlicious… its such a lame and stupid name!

  10. Bee May 5, 2010

    WHO BEE!! Has a nice ring to it. LOL

    WHO recognise greatness? BEE!

  11. ~AalexisR~ The Summer King (The Bahamas) May 5, 2010

    Very nice. Name doesn’t help but I do like them. THEY ARE S***, especially CHRYSTINA.

  12. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    DK more successful in the US? Did you not just ready about PCDs 8 top 40 hits to DKs 2? & DK have sold 2.5m albums in the US. PCD have sold 3m albums

  13. Goldmember May 5, 2010

    Wasn’t one of the girls on crack?

  14. Leepcd89 May 5, 2010

    Their Best Video Ever…PcD & DK Rocks!!! But Definately Nobody Can Come Close 2 PCD!!!

  15. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    ^ Yup!!! I like DK but DON’T compare them to the Queens PCD!

  16. TBC May 5, 2010

    This is the time to take over the US! There are no girl groups out right now making waves…
    Good luck to them the song is great!!

  17. TheMan May 5, 2010

    girlicious let the best singer go and Danity Kane tops because all the girls can sing, unlike PCD

  18. MrIncredible May 5, 2010

    I think the black one was prolly on crack… she’s always been cute but she’s starting to look a little “hard in the face.” A shame.. she’s too pretty for that.

    Coming from Danity Kane fan, I dunno who in the world would ever claim they have been more successful than PCD, even in the U.S.! Clearly you are talking out you b***, because that’s CLEARLY untrue. PCD is more successful in the U.S. and internationally boo boo. Try again.

  19. MrIncredible May 5, 2010

    And in case some of you haven’t heard, Danity Kane NO LONGER EXISTS. LMAO

  20. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    @TheMan

    You said all the girls in Danity Kane can sing??? Are you serious??? they’ve all got average voices at best, have you SEEN any of their live performances? they haven’t got a Nicole or a Melody

  21. Jhaye Star May 5, 2010

    If yall wanna talk abt the most successful girl group DC blows both PCD and DK out the water an the group been dead for years, still no other can reach that status !!!!!

    Before today I never heard of this group ! itsnot a ba effort but its been one already most recently with the PCD

    Peace !

  22. thatmangojuice May 5, 2010

    why is this discussion even here, i like the PCD but Danity Kane is in a whole other league .. here’s the difference; all DK girls are talented and can individually hold their own.

    That is all..

  23. G.LaSalle May 5, 2010

    I’m mad someone said the black girl must be the one on crack. WTF? No, Natalie the latina, was the one caught with cocaine.

  24. Christian May 5, 2010

    Good pop song, great video – I love their first album. Definitely looking for to their next one.,

  25. C May 5, 2010

    I am sure they replaced Natlie – the latina because she got caught with kgs of cocaine in her bag.

  26. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    @ThatMangoJuice

    danity Kane can’t sing!!!! All of their live performances are bad :-/ They’re not that good dancers either. Some of them can hold a tune but none can belt like Melody & Nicole. And what the other 3 can’t do in vocal ability they more than make up for in dancing, they could dance CIRCLES round DK

  27. Prince248 May 5, 2010

    I think Girlicious served up a nice first buzz single. I still don’t like that Tiff isn’t part of the group anymore as she and Nicole are the only ones who really impressed me. I think they really messed up single wise on their first album. ‘Like Me’ was good, but they should’ve released ‘Save the World’ or ‘Radio’, even ‘Liar Liar’ since Flo Rida was the rapper of the moment around that time.

    I still mourn the loss of DK, but I think if Girlicious A) Changed their name, B) Stopped looking like cheap prostitutes, they could do something real cute.

  28. Bbop May 5, 2010

    That girl in the middle is so unsexy. And whoever did their hair needs to be fired.

  29. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    ^ Agree, after Tiffanie left & their sound changed, I stopped checking for these h***. their first album was hot & Liar Liar should have been their lead WW single but they screwed it up 🙁

  30. RIHANNA IS BEST! May 5, 2010

    @kyus23 pussycAT DOLLS AREE BIGGER H*** THN GIRLISUS! ESPAICLY NICOLE ZIZER! THE B**** SHE IS!! :@ AND I HOPE THEY GOOO FARR SO UNTILL PUSSYCAT DOLLS MAKE ANOTHER HIT SIT UR ASS DWN!!!!!

  31. CRAMPED May 5, 2010

    PCD is more sucessful than DK, but DK is far more talented esp. as a GROUP.
    Nicole sounds terrible when she sings live. Aundrea or Dawn would outsing her any day, plus aubrey was amazing on Poetry and Shannon and D.Woods could be equally as good.
    So the Dk cant sing comment is a lie form the devil himself.

  32. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

    @Cramped Nicole can sing rings around both of them. Have you seen her sing I Hate This Part at Walmart Soundcheck?

    @RihannaIsBest Keep it cute, I like Rihanna too

  33. RIHANNA IS BEST! May 5, 2010

    YES BT SHE WAS MIMING AT WALMART SO WAS MELEDY AND SHES THE BEST SINGER OF THE GROUP BT NOO NICOLE THE B**** ONE AGAING HOOGS THE LIME LIGHT! AND IF U COMPARE THM 2 GIRLISHIOS YES MOST OF THM CANT SING BT THR ALL GET INDVIDUAL PARTS TO SING OF THE SONG AND SOMETIMES SING LEAD ON DIFFERNT SONGS BTT NOOO PCD WNT DO THT BECAUSE THR BUMMING NICOLE COZ SHE GIVING HEAD 2 EVERY BOY THR!

  34. Kyus93 May 5, 2010

  35. CRAMPED May 5, 2010

    YASSS MY BICHES ARE BACKKKKK!

  39. ricanstar May 5, 2010

    YAY MORE LITTLE TRAMPS

  40. Dev May 5, 2010

    Oh, whorelicious back again. I saw the video and heard the song. Both forgettable vocaless trash.

  41. U Can’t B Serious? May 5, 2010

    @ G. Lasalle…………..okay! I just read that comment too and i gagged! WTF! It must be someone other than the black race that made that comment.

  42. Reasonable Voice May 5, 2010

    you know, I think I like these girls . . .

  43. Reasonable Voice May 5, 2010

    and you know what I like about them? They seem refreshingly on par with one another. I know I’ve only heard this one single, but it doesn’t seem as if there’s one that immediately stands out, one that’s supposedly more remarkable, talented, or beautiful than the others. They are one. Keep the Latina one away from the drugs and they might make some noise on the pop scene.

  44. JP May 5, 2010

    I am extremely disappointed that DK is no more, but I hope these ladies can fill the female group void.

    I recall the group’s first round of videos. Like Me was the only memorable/decent video. I’m feeling the the energy/sass of this video. The first performer really set the tone, and she has some cute lil gestures throughout the video.

    I may have to check out their first CD now. Hope they do well in the future.

  45. Leah May 5, 2010

    DK is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than PCD…the only one in PCD who can sing is melody…nicole effin talks she can’t sing period…and the only reason PCD is more successful is because they had more exposure and they did make good songs but jus cuz you make good songs don’t mean yo ass can sing…s*** Britney Spears makes good songs but her ass can’t sing better than Christina Aguilera but yet she’s more successful cd selling wise…everyone in DK can sing and dance but Diddy such a sucky ass producer they don’t get any esposure…and i do love Girlicious but they need to come up wit a better name and come to the u.s.

  46. whatever!! May 5, 2010

    I think this works…i like it…nice pop song! they need to really push this…very marketable!!

  47. g3 May 5, 2010

    this was good my eyes hurt tho after watching the video but the song is okay and they look good just change their name and they might be something buh really arent girl groups over?? like come on they dont stick around too long anymore PCD,DK,Electrik Red,RichGirls they all faded only Destinys Child and TLC had longevity…u will not remember who these girls are in 2 years

  48. Aniyah May 5, 2010

    I’ve always liked Girlicious especially when there was four of them! and i like how each of them get a little solo time other than how the pussycat dolls and nicloe! I love the blondes voice shes my fav outta the group! As for the video, I like it but no so much! I think it has something to do with the fact that I’m not feeling the song so much! Maybe i need a couple of more listens then I just might look at it!

    Check out my new blog 😉

    Am i the only one that really liked it..? =S

    i think they done a good job
    but i will not support them as they kicked out my favourite girl TIFANNY!#

    But this is their BEST VIDEO YET! i think it was really good they upped their game and it is soo true there are no girl groups out right now so they have a advatage.!

    And stop going off topic like WTF this post is about girlicious not Pcd Vs dk

    And to anwer your question PCD is more sucefull But as in who is better it is Dk as ALL the girls Sang and they ALL can sing and harmonies Without looking like cheap h***

    But PCD was fun had that IT Factor and they were HOt and had songs that stayed in your head and had more hits and where known world wide

    That is the thing about DK they where only Marketed for the American Audience..
    Europe is where the money is at people loool!

  50. Yellow Gorillah May 5, 2010

  58. irving May 7, 2010

    sta buenisima sta rolaaaaaaaaaa lo mejor de ellas hasta ahora píenso q sera un hit

  59. Gfan1 December 22, 2010

    Girlicious are way better than the pcd and danity kane combine sorry.. Girlicious are the best and alway on top but they need a better manager and need to have a better marketble. Danity kane have diddy which way incredible because he already famus , in my opinion dk can’t sing or dance when compare to girlicious, eps chry and nichole. The pcd have a better manager than girlicious but only nichole is singing. I do think the other could sing but not as good as girlicious girliious or danity kane. Overall, girlicious are the best because they all can sing and dance at the same time unlike D K and PCD. Girlicious have more talents. I like every single song they put so far. The first and second albums was off the chance. I love the three group but I wanted girlicious to take over the world. Which they well in 2011.hopfully i’m right. It would be awsome as f***. Just wanted to say the I love u girlicious girls and wishyou the best luck no matter what happend. Thank u so much for every that u inspired me you are like a my dream to meet u and one day my dream would come true.

  60. Gfan1 December 22, 2010

    #1 girlicious #2 pcd #3 dk #4 wonder girl #5 2ne1 They are my top five. Girlicious alway my number 1.
