More Solo Activities for the Pussycat Dolls


Credit this to DD. I was caught up in Nicole's solo effort I forgot about the other Dolls. (Shame, shame!!) Apparently, Ash is gonna be an actress!!! She's set to star in "Make It Happen" next year, in a small role. Supposedly MELODY is also working solo, which I believe to be true, but am not so sure about an ALBUM yet. Anyway, read the story:

August 16, 2007

With the pending release of "Lead Doll's" Nicole Scherzinger's solo album Her Name is Nicole and rumors about her desire to start an acting career going around, and even the news about Never-Was Doll Asia Nitollano getting some additional exposure as Sean “Diddy” Combs new model, you might be wondering what the other Pussycat Dolls are up to.

Well, they are not all idly sitting by in the Pussycat Dolls compound, bedazzling their bras and stretching out to stay limber until the next performance. Other Dolls have been getting out and about as well and pursuing new opportunities outside the group.

Jessica Sutta – aka “Pin-Up Doll” – is the featured vocalist on a new release from German dance DJ Paul Van Dyk. The song, “White Lies,” was released on July 31 and was the first single from the full album In Between, which came out this past Tuesday.

The Winnipeg Sun reports that they learned that Ashley Roberts – aka “Angel Doll” – has recently been added to the cast for a movie currently shooting in Canada. The film is called Make It Happen and is being directed by Darren Grant, who also directed the feature film Diary of a Mad Black Woman and the video for the Destiny Child's song “Survivor.”

Melody Thornton's solo album, The Beginning, is still awaiting a release date. It is said to include collaborations with Pharrell, Chingy and Omarion, and an appearance from her fellow Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger.

Kimberly Wyatt and Carmit Bachar are the two Pussycat Dolls who haven't seemed eager to undertake many activities outside the band's own busy schedule lately. A recent post to Carmit's blog on the PCD website might indicate why she's been laying lower than some of the others. In the past few weeks, she had to put a beloved dog to sleep due its bout with cancer. She also recently lost her grandmother and so says she has been dealing with those “emotionally heavy” events in the past few months.

The full group, however, is still said to be on track to release their next album, Double the Trouble, later this year.

****ANYWAY, the second album is so NOT coming this year. It has to be Summer 2008 at the earliest.
