\n\tTurns out not everyone is excited for the upcoming Pussycat Dolls<\/a> reunion.<\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this month, the iconic girl group announced<\/a> that they will be reuniting for a 53-date tour across the U.K., Europe and North America. Alongside the tour announcement, the Pussycat Dolls also released a new single, \u201cClub Song<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 2026 return of the Pussycat Dolls follows a 2019 reunion tour<\/a> which saw the band, which started as a group of six, reunite as a five-piece. This time around the Pussycat Dolls are down to just three of its members: Nicole Scherzinger<\/a>, Kimberly Wyatt and Ashley Roberts.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhile fans of the group are ready to see the 2000s legends hit the stage again, some key figures in the group\u2019s history do not feel the same.<\/p>\n

\n\tOn Tuesday (March 17), original Pussycat Dolls member Carmit Bachar alleged in an Instagram post<\/a> that she was not invited to participate in the upcoming Pussycat Dolls reunion tour. In a long caption attached to two photos of herself, Bachar detailed her experience learning about the upcoming reunion tour.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIn light of recent developments, I feel it is important to speak honestly and respectfully,\u201d wrote Bachar. \u201cI was not contacted regarding the group\u2019s decision to move forward, and I learned of these plans at the same time as the public.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBachar continued to say that she wishes she were directly contacted regarding the reunion \u201cgiven [her] history with the brand\u201d and that this is \u201cdisappointing on a personal level.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDespite her disappointment, Bachar says she is still proud of her work with Pussycat Dolls (the group scored four top 10 hits on the Billboard Hot 100) and that time in her life will always be meaningful to her. She even started her statement by expressing gratitude for the fans worldwide, with a particular shoutout to the LGBTQ+ community<\/p>\n

\n\tAlthough she is speaking publicly on the manner, Bachar said she does not intend to start any drama.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMy intention in sharing this is not to create division, but to honor the truth and the fans who have supported us throughout the years,\u201d she explains. \u201cTransparency and respect are values I hold deeply.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tGoing forward, Bachar said she is focusing on her well-being and will be sharing new projects, such as new music and an \u201cexciting collaboration with a television and music industry icon.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBillboard has reached out to representatives for the Pussycat Dolls for comment. <\/p>\n
