\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tThe Pussycat Dolls parted ways in 2010, but singer Nicole Scherzinger hasn\u2019t forgotten how grueling it was to be part of the group. \u201cSo the Dolls, it was a profoundly overwhelming experience, right?\u201d Scherzinger, 45, told the Sunday Times in an interview published on Thursday, June 27. \u201cIt was very difficult because I was really [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The girl group originally hit the charts in 2005 as a six-piece, also featuring Melody Thornton<\/strong><\/a>, Carmit Bachar<\/strong> and Jessica Sutta<\/strong>. They enjoyed a string of international hits, including \u201cDon\u2019t Cha\u201d and \u201cWhen I Grow Up,\u201d before going their separate ways in 2009.<\/p>\nIn 2019, the Dolls, sans Thornton, reunited as a five-piece, releasing the song \u201cReact\u201d<\/a> and announcing a 2020 tour. The tour was ultimately canceled<\/a> due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\u201cThe Pussycat Dolls have always been known for an ever-changing lineup,\u201d Wyatt, 44, told the BBC<\/a> in an interview on Thursday. \u201cIt just so happens that right now we\u2019re in a space where we feel united and in a place where we\u2019re ready to push forward. And this is the lineup now, for 2026, but you never know with the Pussycat Dolls what might come next.\u201d<\/p>\nScherzinger, 47, added, \u201cAfter 20 years, you\u2019re like, \u2018Where is everybody?\u2019 But for us, it aligned.
