Roll your eyes or--worse--invoke the Spice Girls all you want: Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like any one of the members of this revolving collective? Dissing the Pussycat Dolls is like denying you want a peek at the Victoria's Secret runway show--a foolhardy stance nobody's going to believe anyway. Never mind, for a moment, the semi-lewd pleasures of the disc's visuals (midriffs galore!): the pop on parade by this gang of writhers and eyelash-batters isn't bad. Nicole Scherzinger, a former member of the failed prefab teen pop act Eden's Crush, brings it with determination and carefully distributed shots of sweetness. More important, she gets high-wattage help. Busta Rhymes, Black Eyed Peas' will.i.am, and Timbaland all step in to dress up the Dolls' sound, and the songwriters' and producers behind PCD clearly know how to sexify a disc without sinking it into the gutter. What's best about the Dolls' debut, though, is its shamelessness. This is manufactured friskiness that doesn't take itself seriously; these girls don't want a Grammy, they only want to pounce. --Tammy La Gorce
Album Description
"Inside every woman is a Pussycat Doll," says Robin Antin, the creator of the singing-and-dancing ensemble that has risen from underground cool to major-label hot. "It's about female empowerment, about being confident with who you are. It's about singing and dancing in front of a mirror by yourself and having fun."With their debut album released by A&M Records in summer 2005 (led by "Don't Cha," a duet with Busta Rhymes, written and produced by Cee-Lo), the Pussycat Dolls go beyond being extraordinarily beautiful. With tremendous voices, and after working with today's top songwriters and producers, the Pussycat Dolls are ready to stamp their mark on music and on attitudes. "To me, a Pussycat Doll is fearless but also vulnerable," says lead singer Nicole Scherzinger. "We're strong but we like to play too. The line in 'Don't Cha'--'don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me'--is meant to be empowering. The Pussycat Dolls are not about just being hot but also about saying something with real feeling."From Scherzinger, who earlier scored a Top 10 album and single while in girl group Eden's Crush, to Jessica Sutta, the one-time captain of the Miami Heat dance troupe; from Carmit Bachar, the La Vida Loca girl on Ricky Martin's world tour, to Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt, two of the most talented young dancers in Hollywood, and Melody Thornton, a stunning singer chosen from an open audition, these Pussycat Dolls are the new incarnation--more contemporary, more street--of the group whose Sunset Strip performances became the hippest ticket in Hollywood.

 Not what they initially seem August 22, 2008
Some people assume things about this group that are just not true. Yes, these girls somewhat rely on their sex appeal to give them a fan base, however their songs attract women, and are not completely distasteful. Their songs put women first, unlike copycats of theirs who use sex appeal in both their look and their lyrics to turn everyone off. Christina Applegate was the actress who initially stuck with the Pussycat Dolls when they were still a burlesque group, and other actresses like Pamela and Carmen merely passed through to get their chance to become a part of the Pussycat Dolls for a short time, not to fuel their image.
 another awesome girl group of this decade August 9, 2008
over the past decade, definatly there were 2 girl groups that really got my attention, one being "destiny's child" and the other one "mis-teeq" those 2 girl groups had huge success early this decade worldwide and this new girl group the pussycat dolls does remind me of them in a very simular way.
in each of these famous girl groups there are 3 definatly main female singers in them that made them famous, for mis-teeq there was "alesha dixon" who has her debut solo cd coming out this year. for destiny's child there is "beyonce knowles" who had alot of success solo in the past and now we have the pussycat dolls with nicole scherzinger!
And yeah i loved thier debut album and it had many hit singles,several up beat dancey tracks especially. the entire cd is very good also and i cannot wait for their next album, and nicole and alesha's new cds too!!
 weak album, don't buy it August 5, 2008
weak album, don't buy it. From the first track to the last you feel there's a lot missing to make this an o.k. album.
Do people really think these chicks are empowering???? June 28, 2008

Seriously? Come on. For real? People have actually given this piece of garbage of an album 5 stars? And they truly believe these skanks are empowering? What has happened in our culture that crap like this passes as music? In one breath, they're trying to steal a man away from another woman, convincing the guy that they're "hot" and "raw" and in another breath they're saying how they wanna stick with the guy they're with forever. I just don't get it. How can you be a total man stealing whore one minute (and completely full of yourself while doing it I might add) and then the next you want to be the loving faithful girlfriend who wants a long lasting relationship? Their singing abilities are average at best, and if they weren't half naked all the time, bending over chairs, thrashing around like wild animals, and singing about how sexy and hot they were, nobody would be paying attention to this garbage. This is the epidomy of why sex sells.
Good songs, good looking girls, but weird presentation January 1, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This album is a classic and I love the songs on it. However, why is Nichole the only person who sings regularly? When are the additional vocals and background vocals taking place? Personally I like this CD and the group, but I think it is weird that there are 6 girls and only one is supposed to be singing. Whatever. My personal favorite song on this album is "Buttons" because it reminds me of a girl I knew in college and I danced to that song with her. This album is one of those albums where you either love it or hate it and that is a personal decision for any music listener to make.
