Pussycat Dolls Continue To Force Themselves On World’s Populace

At this point, I am car-crash fascinated by Nicole Scherzinger and the rest of the Pussycat Dolls; with every flesh-baring public appearance and “hot” single they seem more and more dissonant and out-of-place, which could be good news for people looking for a respite from the housing-bubble-fueled conspicuous consumption and vapid “sexiness” that defined so much of the new millennium. Watching them during last night’s MTV Movie Awards performance of the atrocious “When I Grow Up,” a single that’s as much a testament to becoming a C-lister through sheer will as it is proof that the winner of The Search For The Next Doll did the right thing by ditching her “prize” for a solo career, made me wonder just how essential these ladies’ future recorded-music success is to Interscope’s 2008 bottom line, because man, there is just something not right here, and I don’t just mean the fact that the other four girls in the group are actually mentioned by name.
