Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious

Robin Antin went for it again, creating a new group from a big batch of sexy young hopeful stars. I began watching Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious not very far into the season, and just like Top Model, it roped me in.

I don't watch many reality shows, but there is usually a specific reason I continue to watch them. Top Model, for example, is worth watching to me because of the photos we get to see. Girlicious is cool because you get to see a new choreographed musical performance every week. And hell yeah, seeing the worst people get elminated is fun. If they suck or don't want to be there, they should go home!

The girls that ended up becoming Girlicious are Nichole, Chrystina, Tiffanie and Natalie.


They all look good together and I really like the fact that there is only one blonde white girl in the group. Even out of just four, that is really fabulous. I know the entertainment industry is pretty diverse of course, but each time I see a better representation of who the people of our country really are it gives me hope.

People can say what they want about each character. I knew pretty soon after I started following the show that Nichole would be in Girlicious. I always liked Tiffanie and I would not f--- with her because she likes drama too much! ☺ I thought Chrystina and Natalie were weird for a little while, how they disconnected from the rest of the girls for a while but they pulled through to unite and that's probably one of the only reasons they both made it rather than Charlye taking one of their places.

One of the girls' last performances was of the Pussycat Dolls song "Buttons" which is probably their best track (even though "Don't Ya" is still pretty popular). You know that feeling you get when someone is really good... like flushed cheeks or goosebumps. You instinctively feel their real talent. I did feel this when I watched Girlicious sometimes. For all the fakeness on TV, you can't fake the different sounds and tones of their voices and how they know (or don't know) how to dance.

The girls have a couple singles out already, "Like Me" and "Stupid S---". The photo below is from the "Like Me" video. Good thing they didn't spoil it for me: the song was released on iTunes on April 22nd, the day before the finale of the show aired. That would have sucked! I guess they couldn't wait... But I sort of like the anticipation of the moment when the final decision will be made.
