Following the announcement that the delayed Pussycat Dolls tour has been cancelled, the group have claimed that Nicole Scherzinger didn't inform her bandmates before posting it on social media.

Writing on Instagram, Scherzinger said she was "incredible saddened" to announce that the tour had been cancelled indefinitely for COVID-19 safety reasons – the tour had already been delayed due to the pandemic.

However, Scherzinger's fellow Dolls Jessica Sutta and Carmit Bachar have now said that they were not told the tour was cancelled.

Sutta and Bachar released a joint statement, also on Instagram, saying: "We want to say how incredibly disappointed we are to learn of an announcement made on Instagram that the Pussycat Dolls reunion tour is canceled. As of now, there has been no official notification of that."

"Either way, it seems as though it's the end of a chapter to an incredible, life altering experience filled with some awesome memories that we will forever be grateful for."

They added: "To the fans, we love you. Trust us, this is not the outcome we had hoped for. We wanted it as much as you because we appreciate you all so much and it hurts our hearts you had to wait so long for an answer, but unfortunately it's out of our control.”

The statement was released just a few hours after Scherzinger's announcement, where they also said that though the tour has been cancelled, it is "not the end of the Dolls story."

Scherzinger's announcement also did not mention any of her other bandmates, which included Bachar, Sutta, Kimberly Wyatt and Melody Thornton.

There have previously been reports that Scherzinger and the rest of the Pussycat Dolls clashed when the band was together between 2003 and 2010 due to Scherzinger considering herself to be the leader of the group.

This also comes after reports that Scherzinger was being sued by Pussycat Dolls creator Robin Antin after she claimed Scherzinger threatened to leave the tour unless she had "complete creative control", which her lawyer has denied.

As of now, Scherzinger has not publicly acknowledged the claims by Bachar and Sutta, but Digital Spy have reached out to her representatives for comment.
