As the Pussycat Dolls comeback performance nears 10 million views, the excitement it ignited is turning fan attention to what the ladies are cooking up next.
It’s emerged that an EP is set for January and the masses were gifted a snippet of new song ‘React’ during their explosive X Factor showing.
And yet for all the buzz, it’s sparked renewed debate about the distribution of vocals within the group. Notably because there wasn’t any.
Nicole Scherzinger has become synonymous with PCD’s look and sound after giving a new meaning to lead singer. A reality that her bandmates each bemoaned in the early years that followed the group’s initial break-up in 2010. And a reality some say is the reason Melody Thornton opted to sit out the current regrouping.
With almost a decade passed, will fans finally hear the voices of Ashley Roberts, Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta, and Kimberly Wyatt? It seems so!
Full story below…
Carmit offered the following when quizzed by Entertainment Tonight about whether anyone besides Scherzinger will be singing on their new material:
“That’s the plan. Absolutely. I think everybody has a voice and should be heard. And yes, Nicole is lead singer of the group and that’s the way it was and probably will be moving forward. But yeah, we all have voices and have something to say.”
Watch the full interview (vocal sharing part begins at 5.17):
Here’s hoping the plan sticks. It’d definitely bring the fresh needed to make this more than a momentary stroll down Nostalgia Avenue.
Girl, Bye. That X-Factor performance was the chance for each girl to sing. It’ll be more of the same. I liked Ashley’s “Played”, but aside from Melody have never heard from the other girls.
I really hope they actually have solos (Ex. Girls aloud) during songs and aren’t just in the background singing ha ha ha ha. Like in previous songs
I dont think this is a good idea.
We are not use to any of the other girls voices, except nicole.
I hope they only plan to do this with the new material. If you listen to the Doll Domination album all the girls got to sing lead on their own track and it was all kinds of wack. Is this really what you want to hear more of? I guaranteed you no fan wants their fave tracks f***** with.
Sorry, but not everyone was born to sing, some were made to DANCE – did anyone notice how Ashley Roberts ATE the choreography on X-Factor, look closely, she outshined Nicole choreo wise ??
Love it or hate it Nicole IS the PCD sound – and I don’t want to see live performances of old songs with the other girls making a dead cat and a massacre out of past vocals to hits that do not need f****** with. Leave, it, ALONE ✋??⛔️
Poor girls ?? Nicole is a raving narcissist she will never!!!
Thats actually really disappointing to hear… the part about nicole remaining lead singer. Its almost 2020. Not the early 2000’s 90’s. Groups dont do lead singers anymore.
I’ll believe it when I hear it. That comeback performance was nothing but Nicole’s vocals.
#Romance by @Camila Cabello has reached #1 on the Worldwide iTunes Album Chart!
After releasing 5 flops, she has the number one album in the world.
???
They hate to see it
Romance is still number one on usa itunes.
Camila first album has also re- entered itunes at number 188.
????
They hate to see it
Havana probably gonna enter the itunes songs chart
Anything Camila breathes, havana enters the charts.
?????
Havana sold an extra 1 million copies in 2019 alone.
A song released in 2017 did that.
I’m here for this….Carmit vocals were on the first album tho! I have Ashley solo album, the songs Jessica did with Rico Love, Kimberly did a project with a guy Her Majesty and the Wolves that album was great. The girls are all talented so we will see how it goes sadly their solo stuff was better than Nicole music lol
nicole still hasn’t learnt yall….. Melody’s notes were the only reason i listened. bye bye
Nobody cares! Bye
Oh please, melody is not even that good of a singer. All she did was scream
Carmit is a good singer (you can find a leaked demo with her on the lead – she has that Broadway tone to her voice) but everyone else left is blah. Nicole is a b**** but now that Melody is gone they don’t have options.
Plus even Nicole sounds awful live singing with the Dolls.
