Shambolic Ticket Sales Sink Comeback Hopes

The Pussycat Dolls have abruptly canceled the majority of their planned North American tour dates. The decision, confirmed by the group, cites a “difficult and heartbreaking” reevaluation of plans, with reports indicating sluggish ticket sales as the primary driver. This marks the second time in recent years the group has scuttled a reunion tour for the continent.

The group, currently comprising Nicole Scherzinger, Kimberly Wyatt, and Ashley Roberts, will still perform a single U.S. date at the OUTLOUD Music Festival during WeHo Pride. They have framed this as a special acknowledgment of their LGBTQ+ fans. While North American shows have been pulled, the band states that demand for their U.K. and European tour, scheduled for September and October, remains strong, with several dates already reported as sold out. Special guests Lil' Kim and Mya were slated to appear on the North American dates, with Lil' Kim also listed for the European leg.

Internal Strife Surfaces Amidst Cancellation

The cancellation has been punctuated by public statements from former members, adding layers to the fractured narrative. Carmit Bachar asserted she was not consulted on the tour's progression and only learned of the plans simultaneously with the public. Similarly, Jessica Sutta claimed she was informed of the reunion just one day before its official announcement. One anonymous source suggested that the current trio felt former members Bachar and Sutta were no longer "aligned" with their vision, aiming for a "drama-free" tour. Sutta herself has speculated that her political beliefs may have contributed to her exclusion from the reunion lineup.

A Troubled History of Reunions

This latest tour cancellation follows a similar fate for a planned reunion tour four years ago. That previous attempt was reportedly scrapped by Nicole Scherzinger without the immediate knowledge of Jessica Sutta and Carmit Bachar. Another prior reunion was reportedly delayed due to COVID-19 and ultimately dissolved amid a disagreement between frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger and the group's founder, Robin Antin, leading to a confidential settlement after legal action. The current iteration of the Pussycat Dolls, a trio, announced this reunion tour in March, coinciding with the 20th anniversary of their debut album, 'PCD'.
