I found the link to the note in the album threat.. I'd really like to Nicole left the group to purchase her solo career and the other four continues for at least other album..or at least with solo careers..talking about solo careers..does anyone know something about carmit?..what happened with her?..and with that girl who won the search for the next doll?..

I don't know. It's somewhat hearsay to me - the report originated from a British newspaper following a recent gig they had there. I also read that Kimberly was spending time in London giving out dance lessons.
Frankly, I'm not surprised if this is the case. At the same time it is kind of sad, but you could sense this was coming given all the recent infighting and the way their label handled this era. As for their representatives or spokespeople, it's obvious that they are trying to save face and implement damage control, but in all honesty, the clock has run out. As much hope as there is for them to stay together, it seems more and more it's becoming slim to none.
Given how Nicole's become the center of attention all this time, it can be very easy and somewhat justfiable to paint her as the one who caused their downfall, just as much as she was responsible for their success. If anything, their label is responsible for the trainwreck that went down this era - everything from giving Nicole a push at the expense of the other girls to the questionable single choices, and from the looks of it, lack of promotion. Obviously the formula for success they had during PCD was missing in this era. They probably had it down, but were missing the key ingredients that would have made it just as good, if not better. And this goes beyond their failed reality show attempt to add one Doll, followed by the departure of another.
As for that re-release that's been already pushed back multiple times...what's going on there? In North America, no mention of a release date. Hence, the hope of seeing "Painted Windows" being released here may just be as good as gone.
For all we know, they've probably already broken up - they're just wrapping up their tour to play the last few shows before it becomes official. Coincidentally, the last show on their tour is tonight in Beirut - they're probably performing right now as I type this message. Could this be their last? I would hope not, but we'll find out soon enough, perhaps by sometime next week.

www.mediabasemusic.com/default.aspIt's one of the top music stories on the right side. I can't copy the link on the right side because it's embedded on a flash site. But this is where I first found out about it, as I do with most music news.

i don't think they are breaking up. ashley just tweeted this:
"Dont believe everything you hear! Life is good and Im happy. Lots of love..off to do the show. xo"
not to mention there could've just been a fight between them or the newspaper completely made it up. i wouldn't believe anything until it's confirmed.
i even read about a supposed DD 3.0 being released, and it's actually been added to many online stores in the uk.

Lots of love..off to do the show. xo" not to mention there could've just been a fight between them or the newspaper completely made it up. i wouldn't believe anything until it's confirmed. That's how I feel too. I don't think there's enough or any valid information out there yet to convince me that they intend on going their separate ways. Nonetheless, the timing is interesting given that they are wrapping up their tour, so it gave me the impression that this may be the last time they're performing together. Now I take back what I said earlier about them having probably broken up already, although with so much focus on their infighting, it's easy to jump to the wrong conclusions. The press is just taking advantage of this and basically putting them further in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. Hopefully things work out.

There will be no official word they've broken up until the label feels they've milked this album for all it's worth and need one last media blitz to rack up some final sales.
Point is, Nicole's an egomaniac who's been obsessed with fame from the get-go. Bring on another attempt at a solo career, I hope it works out better for her this time. There's no going back to a group a 3rd time, especially because the girls probably want nothing to do with being back-up dancers for her.

well I wouldn't be surprised if they broke up...this era has been a total mess, plus Nicole steals all the atention and the other 4 are merely backup dancers, which is bad, the group is not balanced and let's mention Melody who has an excellent voice that hardly gets noticed..

Like I've said before. Everyone blame's Nicole. The pussies knew what they came into when they signed their contract. They shouldn't be complaining, maybe that was the easiest way back then to get a kick start in their career, and wasn't really what they wanted, but they signed it, so too bad for them. If anything, like someone mentioned, it's the label's fault. Nicole and the girls are just doing what they're told. Of course they have a voice in the decisions, but we know ultimately the label decides what is done (and that's for every musical act).
I really though Nicole's first 2 singles, Watever U Like and Baby Love were great.... too bad they didn't take off. It was too soon for her, she should've waited until after this PCD album, and she probably would've had at least a Top 20 with these two.

this song is so corny... I can't believe they are going to get a top 25 hit out of it. Will we get a release of Painted Windows/Elevator to get one more real hit off this infinitely-long era?

I agree with Tabitha! Nicole & Melody please! And I don't know why people hold so much hatred for Nicole. She's the star, she's the lead singer, she deserves more credit than the others who are basically back up dancers. And it's not like she's in control, she's just a puppet like the rest of them, and they make her the lead.

Once again, we have a girl group that can't stay together for more than a few years, while we still have an endless list of male groups who have been together for 40+ years and going strong.
More proof that girls are catty bitches.

^^ We've always known that. Girls just can get along for so long while living together... and in the case of the pussies, being the same people they always see, no one else.
