The Pussycat Dolls cancel most of North American reunion tour
The Pussycat Dolls is not pushing through with most of the North American run of their reunion tour.
In a recent Instagram post, the group announced that after careful consideration, they have decided to cancel all but one of their upcoming tour dates.
PCD then said that their UK and European soldout events will still push through and that they will still perform at the Outloud Music Festival at the WeHo Pride event in Los Angeles on June 6.
"We could not think of a more meaningful place to celebrate with our fans. The LGBTQ+ community has shown us so much love and support throughout our career, and we’re honored to be part of a weekend rooted in joy, pride, music, and chosen family," they said.
"We are putting everything into making this show a true celebration of the music and the memories, for the fans who have been with us from the beginning and those discovering us for the first time. We’re working hard to create the kind of show we’ve always dreamed of bringing to you. We cannot wait to bring this reunion to Europe and make these nights unforgettable," the statement concluded.
The group also said that refunds will be automatically issued to those who purchased tickets to their canceled shows on select providers.
While no definitive reason was given, fans are pointing to weak ticket sales and absence of all original members.
Only Nicole Sherzinger, Kimberly Wyatt, and Ashley Roberts will be on the PCD Forever tour, leaving out former members Carmit Bachar
Jessica Sutta, Melody Thornton. The tour marks the 20th anniversary of the release of their debut album PCD.
After PCD split up in 2010, Scherzinger, its lead singer, pushed on with a solo career. At the height of their fame, PCD was known for its hits Don't Cha featuring Busta Rhymes, Buttons, Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny), and Stickwitu.
