May 31, 201510 yr This is very unfortunate. I really liked them and despite not charting in the US, Ugly Heart really became a massive hit in several countries with some serious longevity. I thought Lighthouse was an amazing song but it clearly didn't connect so they should've tried at least one more uptempo before giving up. But like Lee said, I'm sure there was a lot going on behind the scenes and they just couldn't keep it together which is understandable. How many failed groups has Robin Antin had? Time to just get PCD back together because we know Nicole's solo career (if you can call it that) is over. I was thinking the other day that she was better off with PCD :lol: Lauren was in Paradiso Girls so am interested to see if she'll strike lucky with a third group! :lol: Edited May 31, 201510 yr by Sean.
May 31, 201510 yr To be honest Robin seems to see real potential in Lauren, and they seem to have a good bond too. She was originally going to become the "new Nicole" of the new PCD, until they made GRL which was essentially formed by the pair of them, so I'm clinging on to hope that Lauren actually finds some success!!
May 31, 201510 yr Lauren is pretty talentless, her and Paula were the weak links of G.R.L. in my eyes. She would probably have the best shot at a solo career though.
May 31, 201510 yr So sad to hear they have split but not completely unexpected :( Shame as I loved them so much :heart:
May 31, 201510 yr Lauren is pretty talentless, her and Paula were the weak links of G.R.L. in my eyes. She would probably have the best shot at a solo career though. I don't think she's talentless. Her voice actually comes across quite strong and unique in the studio. She just doesn't sound good live while doing the routines which is understandable. Natasha sounds better live but sounds incredibly whiny/nasally at all times so I don't think that's really any better. We all know Paula is the worst vocally. I do believe a PCD reunion can and will happen as the girls have hinted at it quite a lot. Nicole would have to share the vocals this time around though and I'm not sure she would ever be willing to do that. On a side note, the Paradiso Girls never stood a chance with Aria as their lead singer. Talk about annoying. Lauren and Chelsea were the only worthy members.
May 31, 201510 yr Remember Lauren 'sang' on Party Rock Anthem, so I presume she still has some money from it's success if she bombs again?
June 3, 201510 yr https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/...l-simone-battle :cry: Natasha's tweet though shows why shes my favourite :wub: Edited June 3, 201510 yr by Sean.
June 3, 201510 yr I saw this coming, or something roughly similar. I never saw them releasing anything again at any rate. Such a shame. :(
June 3, 201510 yr Hopefully Ugly Heart remains a pop classic in the future. I certainly won't be forgetting it.
June 4, 201510 yr So sad, I wish all the girls luck. Show Me What You Got, Ugly Heart and Lighthouse all feel like girlgroup classics. As much as I love Fifth Harmony, it feels like it's just going to be an overload of teeny-girl groups with a demographic of 8-14 year olds from now on seen as though Little Mix and Fifth Harmony are the only current girlbands around. GRL could ALL sing...incredibly well, all dance (especially Simone), had unstoppable stage presence, have/had amazing chemistry from what it seemed, authentic personalities despite the Dr Luke input and were all beautiful visually on top. They were and are the guidelines for a world-dominating girl band and it's so sad they didn't reach their full potential. First the Saturdays hiatus and now GRL. Not a girl group in sight I can stan for whole-heartedly without feeling like they're going to disperse sooner then preferred than again I don't blame them, it was always going to be hard to re-group once Simone sadly passed. I hope they all succeed and thrive in whatever field they chose to pursue next. Edited June 4, 201510 yr by Mackenzie
June 4, 201510 yr Ah absolutely gutted that they have split - Like others have said when 'Ugly Heart' came out it really felt like something different and that they would be huge, Disappointed that it is over before it even begun :cry:

Interestingly as well, Emmalyn just retweeted this: Emmalyn retweeted Missy Elliott @MissyElliott 2h2 hours ago When so called friends have wronged u thank God he allowed u 2 see them 4 who they are! Erbody won't be along 4 da ride Might be reading too much into it but? :kink:
June 11, 201510 yr How many failed groups has Robin Antin had? Time to just get PCD back together because we know Nicole's solo career (if you can call it that) is over. Hm... let's see, PCD, Girlicious, Paradiso Girls and now G.R.L. All an absolute mess with several members being replaced, leaving and whatever. I guess you could count Girls United as being related as that's where the remaining member of Girlicious went after that project ended. Maybe it's time for Robin Antin to realise that PCD was a fluke :arrr:
June 16, 20169 yr They are reforming! Wow! Bizzare move though - Understand how difficult it must have been for them to continue after what happened but to randomly reform after they have lost all their momentum is prop ably not the best move? Really really hope they can salvage a career though as 'Ugly Heart' was like a breathe of fresh air in the girl band arena!
