The Pussycat Dolls

From when I used to sing along obnoxiously to "Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me" back in high school, the Pussycat Dolls (or the PCD) have been the number one, slinkily sexual, aggressively in-your-face girl band for me. Formed from a former line up of burlesque dancers, the PCD arrived on the scene back in 2003 as a genuine musical force. While the group sadly fell apart due to tensions over Nicole Scherzinger being focused on as the main lead, back in those days they rode high on their particular brand of r'n'b and pop.
In this perfectly choreogrpahed gig, they gave the 'Doll' energy only they could be known for, gyrating washboard abs and seductive hair flicks in perfect time. I swear Nicole looked me right in the eyes.
"Buttons" was delivered with all the sassiness the early Noughties demanded, while "Stickwitu" provided a mellow counterpoint.
"When I Grow Up" encapsulated this group's soaring ambition – "when I grow up, I wanna be famous, I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies." This promise has been totally realised for the Dolls, who even have their own line of Doll figurines as merchandise. Finishing with the rousing "Jai Ho" from the smash Hollywood hit 'Slumdog Millionaire' I can only wish the Dolls the best in their separate destinies.

The Pussycat dolls are the real life cheetah girls for the 90's kids. Honestly seeing them live was like a dream come true because they emphasize so much on girl power. Sure shallowly speaking they are strutting around in skimpy clothing, but they aren't promoting sensuality. They capture the beauty of being a strong woman with multiple facets and talents. Nicole may be the lead but watching them live really changes how the PCD are viewed. They are a team of sisters who work hard to look good, sound good, and entertain good (well). I am so glad I finally had a chance to see them in concert. The experience is phenomenal. Listening to them on a CD or headphones will never be the same. If you're a PCD fan or was one. You best try to catch a concert!
