The Pussycat Dolls' long-delayed reunion tour opened at Birmingham's Utilita Arena, with three of the group's original members — Nicole Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt — performing together as part of a 53-date run, according to a review published by The Guardian.
The tour was first announced in 2019 with nearly the full original lineup, but was shelved after the pandemic and a subsequent legal dispute. Poor ticket sales have since led to the cancellation of the tour's planned US leg.
Former member Jessica Sutta said she was excluded from the reunion because she was viewed as "a liability," a claim the group has not commented on, according to the report.
During the Birmingham show, Scherzinger performed as lead vocalist across the group's hits, while Roberts and Wyatt were given solo moments during one performance, the review said.
The Pussycat Dolls scored six UK top-three hits during their original run between 2005 and 2009.
