The Pussycat Dolls are an American pop girl group and dance ensemble based in Los Angeles. The Pussycat Dolls were founded by choreographer Robin Antin in 1995 as a burlesque troupe. After attracting national attention, the group signed a record deal with Interscope Records, with the original line-up comprising of members Nicole Scherzinger alongside Carmit Bachar, Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta, Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt. Their debut album, PCD debuted at number five in the United States and produced six successful singles, including "Don't Cha", "Buttons", and "Stickwitu", which earned the group a Grammy Award nomination.
Following the departure of Bachar in February 2008, the group continued as a quintet. They released their second album Doll Domination in the same year, which spawned singles "When I Grow Up", "I Hate This Part" and "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)". In early 2010, it was confirmed that Scherzinger, Sutta, Wyatt, Roberts, and Thornton had left the group to focus on their solo careers. Auditions are now being held by Robin Antin to recruit new members.
In 2009, Billboard ranked the Pussycat Dolls as the 80th most successful musical act of the 2000s.
