Nicole Scherzinger’s Pussycat Dolls world tour
Scherzinger is currently touring with Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt for the Pussycat Dolls' latest world tour, PCD Forever.
The tour began in June. “When we announced the PCD FOREVER Tour, we hoped to bring the show to fans across the world,” the group wrote via Instagram in May.
The trio kicked off their tour in Copenhagen in September, following shows in Paris, Warsaw, and the UK.
According to Dailymotion, founding members of the group, Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta, and Melody Thornton, were not part of the current lineup.
Bachar and Sutta revealed that they were never informed about the reunion and were not asked to take part. During an interview, Sutta responded to a fan who asked about the rest of the group meeting fans.
She said, “They have been planning it for a year and blatantly didn't ask Carmit and I. We are finding it all out the same time as you are. I was not contacted regarding the group's decision to move forward, and I learned of these plans at the same time as the public.”
At the time, Bachar called the trio's move “disappointing on a personal level” but added that she remains “proud of the role I played in helping shape what The Pussycat Dolls became.”
“My intention in sharing this is not to create division, but to honor the truth and the fans who have supported us throughout the years,” she continued.
“Transparency and respect are values I hold deeply. At this time, I am choosing to focus on my well-being and to move forward with positivity and purpose.”
