The Pussycat Dolls deny they've split

The founder of chart topping girl band The Pussycat Dolls has spoken out to put the record straight on rumours that the group are on the brink of splitting. Robin Antim said there “is no truth” in the media reports that the girls are about to disband.

There had been whispers this week that all was not well between lead singer Nicole Scherzinger and the rest of the girls. Some reports suggested that the other band members had frozen out their lead singer and were giving her the silent treatment.

The other group members, Melody Thornton, Jessica Sutta, Ashley Roberts, and Kimberly Wyatt were said to be unhappy with the fact that Nicole is a far more significant figure in the band with a bigger profile.

However Robin Antim who oversees the band has vehemently denied this saying, “Nicole and the girls have ALWAYS been close.” Before adding, “The Pussycat Dolls are very much ALIVE and there is NO truth to the silent treatment statements.”

Nicole, who is currently dating Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, is said to be working on a solo project. However her debut album made back in 2007 entitled, My Name Is Nicole, was never released and instead many of the tracks ended up on the Pussycat Doll’s album. The last album from the Pussycat Dolls was released in September 2008.
