Only Nicole Scherzinger’s floptastic solo debut has been rebranded as a Pussycat Dolls album, and retitled Doll Domination, and given a release date of tomorrow! From two writeups of Domination that hit newsstands today: “Not that the Pussycat Dolls are turning realistic. They are, after all, a burlesque dance troupe that was recast as a vocal group featuring Nicole Scherzinger. On the album she is credited with ‘all lead and background vocals,’ with the other four Dolls providing ‘additional’ vocals.” … “Scherzinger’s solo album was delayed after single ‘Baby Love’ and other club and download tracks failed to produce sufficient buzz. Four songs originally intended for that project are on Domination.” Not that I was wholly fooled by the other four Dolls finally getting identities of sorts, but surely Scherzinger must be wondering why she can only catch a break from the public if she’s operating under the umbrella of Robin Antin?

“Her Name Is Nicole” Exists, Sort Of

Hey, Interscope:
This still won’t work.
@enriquez the water bottle: Careful: that’s what I said when “When I Grow Up” came out, and I was wrong, wrong, wrong. PCD is a brand name, and it sells. We can hate it, we can dismiss it, we can call the people who buy their records idiots, but that doesn’t make Ron Fair/Interscope wrong.
@Chris Molanphy: Dammit, you’re right.
When I saw that song performed at the MTV Movie Awards, I thought that would be it for them; it was too stupid.
Nope, wrong on that one.
I think we should ask JC Chasez why Nicole can’t get a break outside the PCD. At least his album actually got released… well, the first one, anyway.
This CD is excellent! I think if she’s still trying to get a solo CD out.. it’s gonna flop again. This is the most Nicole can get without being ‘Nicole’.
@enriquez the water bottle: The first time I heard “my humps” I thought it was too stupid to catch on. Now the Black Eyed Peas are a household name. Anything’s possible in this crazy world.
@mrbenning: I still pretend that Black Eyed Peas became a household name because of “Joints and Jams”.
@mrbenning: I still have nightmares about that song.
