Pussycat Dolls Music Review



What did you want to be when you grew up? Nicole Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta, Melody Thorton, and Kimberly Watt knew exactly what they wanted to be-famous. The widely known Pussycat Dolls tell us all about it in their new hit single "When I Grow Up." The dolls sing "when I grow up I wanna be a star, I wanna be in movies," expressing their desire for fame. They also caution, "be careful what you wish for because you just might get it." In this case these five girls got exactly what they wanted.

The Pussycat Dolls, lead by Nicole Scherzinger are very well accomplished pop artists. They already have one hit album "PCD" that has sold over 6 million copies and earned them a Grammy for Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocals. They now have a new CD in September, titled "Doll Domination." On the CD they continue to promote woman empowerment as they have in many of their other songs. In "When I Grow Up," the Pussycat Dolls describe what they wanted to be when they were young which mirrors what they are now. The song is all about fame, which may sound boring or pointless. But what makes this song unique is that it warns its listeners to not strive for fame unless its what you really want.


Not only do they Pussycat Dolls sing, but they dance too. The dolls are skilled hip hop dancers. This group can be compared to Destiny's Child, or Spice Girls. They have impressive vocal range and dance skills. Although their pop sound may not be liked by all, it does not reflect a lack of talent from the fierce five-some.
