Nicole Scherzinger Excited to Have New Cast of Pussycat Dolls

Following the quit of two members of the Pussycat Dolls, frontsinger Nicole Scherzinger and the group founder Robin Antin confirmed to find new people to replace the old ones. Nicole said in a recent MTV on Wednesday, "We're going to have a new cast of Dolls. And I'm excited."

She added, "Right now I've been in the studio working on music non-stop. We're going to have another Pussycat Dolls album for all of our fans out there, but that's going to be late this year. I'm still Nicky Doll. And I'm just ploughing away in the studio making music that I love."

When asked about the music of the next Pussycat Dolls album. She replied, "I don't know if I'm going to put all the new music out under my name yet or if it's going to be perfect for the Dolls. It doesn't matter. I just want to make great music for the fans."

Pussycat Dolls' Ashley Roberts & Jessica Sutta Quits the Group

Another member of Pussycat Dolls, Ashley Roberts, has officially called it quit from the "Button" girl group. Ashley wrote on her official website, read, "I guess it's safe to say it's a wrap for the Pussycat Dolls. While creator Robin Antin was initially telling anyone that'd listen that the ‘new' Dolls would consist of both new and familiar faces, I doubt she intended for the only recognisable face to be Nicole alone. This far down the line (what is/was supposed to be album #3), it's doubtful a new line-up on such a scale would work. Hell, the old line-up were increasingly finding it hard to shift records; hence, how Nicole backed by a fresh batch of dancers-veiled-as-singers would be able to is anyone's guess. Still, never say never..." Last January 30 2010 Jessica Sutta also announced that she will leave the group. "They were really supportive of me," she told MTV News. "It was a big decision, but it was the best decision."

Sutta also said she's ready to solo career. "I'm really excited about my solo project," she said. "I've been working with my friend ... and I've actually been writing. I didn't get a chance to write on the Dolls albums, and I just found out I can write, which is really cool. So my music is really upbeat. You can put it in your ears and drift away which is really fun."

She added she can be her own woman. "I think I was always in the shadows of Nicole, so I think it's the chance for me to come out," she said of frontwoman Nicole Scherzinger. "And I'm showing my alter ego, which I'm really excited about, which is kind of a theme to my album, which is really rad."
