Lead singer of The Pussycat Dolls, Nicole Scherzinger is being sued by choreographer Robin Antin – the group’s founder – over plans for a reunion tour.
According to the suit filed on Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court, Scherzinger, now 43, agreed to a reunion of the sexy girl group – responsible for such hits as “Don’t Cha” and “Stickwitu.” – agreeing to 49% of the deal under a short-form agreement referred to in the suit as a Memorandum of Understanding.
Following the cancelation of the original dates due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the law suit claims that Nicole “now refuses to participate in the tour” and has “demanded to renegotiate the terms” of her contract, including a 75% stake along with final decision-making authority, and won’t participate unless her demands are met.
Because no tour dates can be confirmed due to the legal issue, the touring company, Live Nation, is said to be demanding $600,000 that it funded in advance of the tour.
Scherzinger is the most famous breakout star of the Pussycat Dolls, which Antin founded in 1995 as a burlesque act, though her heightened position within the group – due in large part to her lion’s share of vocals – caused friction among the other members.
