After her on stage word scrap with Nicole Scherzinger, also noted as the 'featured' Doll of the Pussycat Dolls, group member Melody Thornton is clearing the air. Essentially, Thornton says Nicole is not the only one with 'side projects'.
"Nicole's always had extra things going on as opposed to the rest of us, but we have aspirations as well," Thornton said late last week, after being asked about PCD break up rumors.
While the 'Doll' is taking the stage with Scherzinger, who she blasted after two singles from the group were released under the name 'The Pussycat Dolls featuring Nicole Scherzinger', on their summer tour, she lets it be known that they're not happy 'girlfriends' -- in fact, it seems like Thornton is biding time.
"It's definitely a huge misconception that we are just chilling and happy to just be members of the group," she goes on to say.
"I don't think we're breaking up any time soon. As long as this thing is moving, we're all still here." Since 2005 the Pussycat Dolls have sold over 8.5 million albums worldwide and have scored four top 10 singles, including the 2005 2X Platinum certified "Don't Cha".
The chart-topping group followed their 2005 debut with 2008s "Doll Domination." Since its release in September, the album has birthed singles like "When I Grow Up," "I Hate This Part," "Jai Ho," and "Hush Hush".

Shame on Nicole for not being woman enough to shut that sh*$ down. I am sure she knew well in advance of that billboard appearing that she was being featured. These girls need to figure out what En Vogue and many other girl groups have. Solo careers are great, but you can't forget what made you and where you come from. PCD will have the greatest success together NOT apart. I don't see any successful solo careers here. They better get it together. As for DC, yes they can all sing, but let's face it, they don't all have major solo careers. The goal was always to launch B and only B. The only real hit that Kelly had is when she teamed up with Guetta and Michelle, well, I can't name one. But that is by design. Michelle and Kelly were not supposed to have careers. Any success they have now will be because B sits her A*& down. Her latest album is a joke yet they throw her down your throat at every station turn. You have never seen that level of promotion for the other girls.
They all need to shut up and sit down. Hahaha...they ain't no Destiny's Child. The difference between DC and the rest of the groups are that ALL OF THEM COULD SING! PCD...they're just back up dancers. And Melody and Nicole can sing...but they got TOGETHER...the sooner they realize that, the better they'll have it. They need to keep chasing this money, and drop that "Featuring Nicole Sherzinger" 'cause it's gonna mess up the google search. hahaha...

One of the main things with Nicole is that her lead single with T.I. was not good and the video wasn't much better! Amazingly, the public likes seeing 5 girls versus 1! By Melody voicing her dissatisfaction publicly, she now places herself under scrutiny when and if she does every fully record a song with her on lead vocals, she needs to now blow it out of the water! Other than the Supremes, the most critically acclaimed girl groups rotated leads on vocals! We never know, Melody may have been promised by label executives that she really would lead more considering shes the only other girl who can sing lead in the group! This would've been great for the girls because by rotating leads they would've been able to be considered as a more reputable act rather than stripper like girls who can just dance really well! Unfortunately, for Nicole, everyone can't be Diana Ross or Beyonce with succesful post careers after their group successes!
if nicole is so the stuff as one of you put why did her singles FLOP LIKE THAT? LOL
nicole need that group just as much as the rest of them. melody can sing but nicole stands out because of her looks. but im just waiting to see if nicole can ever have a hit song BY HERSELF.only time will tell. and by reading the 2 statements above, yall are so nicole stans, LOL
Honestly, Melody needs to sit down and shut up. I like her okay but she needs to understand that Nicole is da stuff and that she was really the one who made the group. Also, Melody's "fans" need to chill out because if she does release an album, they'll never buy it!!!
nicole worked hard to make the group sucessful..if she wants to go solo so be it,n melody nids to jus get a life
