Along with Applegate, Christina Aguilera and Carmen Electra (who was the group's lead performer for many of their shows) the troupe was featured in a Maxim magazine shoot in 2002, which increased public interest in them (Aguilera later appeared in the similarly themed 2010 film Burlesque directed by Robin Antin's brother Steve). They were also featured in Pink's " Trouble" music video.

Some of the Pussycat Dolls appeared in the 2003 film Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, dancing to Mancini's " The Pink Panther Theme". They were featured in magazines, television specials for MTV and VH1, ad campaigns, and films. Three years later, the Pussycat Dolls moved to The Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood. The troupe received wider press coverage during June 1999, when Playboy featured a Pussycat Dolls pictorial, featuring at least seven contemporary members posing semi-nude (Kasey Campbell, Kiva Dawson, Antonietta Macri, Erica Breckels, Katie Bergold, Erica Gudis and Lindsley Allen). From 1995 to 2003 there were numerous guest vocalists, and many changes to the dance personnel. They appeared briefly in the 1998 films Matters of Consequence (dancing to Henry Mancini's " Hub Caps and Tail Lights", and Keely Smith's "When Your Lover has Gone"), and The Treat (directed by Jonathan Gems). They secured a Thursday night residency at a Los Angeles nightclub, The Viper Room, where they stayed from 1995 to 2001. The troupe began to perform in 1995, with a repertoire of 1950s and 1960s popular music standards while dressed in lingerie or old-fashioned pin-up costumes. History 1995–2002: Beginnings as burlesque dance troupeĪntin began exploring the idea of a modern burlesque troupe during 1990 with Carla Kama and Christina Applegate as performers.
However, with the worsening situation arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, along with breaches of contracts and logistical issues, the reunion tour was cancelled in 2022, leaving the group's fate uncertain. The original recording line-up, minus Thornton, announced their reunion in 2019 with an upcoming tour and a new album. Following the completion of their 2009 world tour, the group went on hiatus and fully disbanded in 2010. Bachar's departure from the group preceded the release of their second and final studio album Doll Domination (2008), which contains hit singles " When I Grow Up", " I Hate This Part", and " Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)". However, despite their commercial success, the group was plagued by internal conflict due to the emphasis on Scherzinger, the group's lead vocalist, and the subordinate treatment of the other members. The Pussycat Dolls achieved worldwide success with the singles " Don't Cha", " Stickwitu", " Buttons", and their multi-platinum debut album PCD (2005). Their debut single, " Sway", was featured on the soundtrack of the 2004 film Shall We Dance?. Antin negotiated a record deal with Interscope Geffen A&M Records in 2003 turning the group into a music franchise comprising Nicole Scherzinger, Carmit Bachar, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta, Melody Thornton, and Kimberly Wyatt. At the suggestion of Jimmy Iovine, Antin decided to take the burlesque troupe mainstream as a pop group. The Pussycat Dolls were an American girl group and dance ensemble, founded in Los Angeles, California, by choreographer Robin Antin in 1995 as a burlesque troupe.
