上世纪九十年代,舞蹈指导 Robin Antin 创立了性感小野猫组合。起初只是在好莱坞的夜总会表演,其后迅速走红,成为热门的女子流行组合。专辑销量超过700万张,在各大排行榜名列前茅。Antin去年做了真人秀Search For The Next Doll, 成功为PCD找到了一位新成员。今年又推出了一个新的选秀节目Girlicious,希望在众多女生中找到人组成新的组合"Girlicious". Antin联同Geffen唱片公司的主席Ron Fair发起全美海选,寻找唱功舞姿出众、有巨星魅力的天才女孩。数千名女孩报名,祈求能在最后三强中占一席之地。她们履历出众,都是出色的歌手、舞蹈演员,15个参赛者最终入围,有机会从寂寂无名的邻家女孩变成国际巨星。 歌手Mark McGrath是客席评判。每周参赛者们将和Robin Antin、性感小野猫的舞蹈指导Mikey Minden一起磨练唱功、舞技。还在明星Kenn Hicks的指导下练习声乐技巧。Kenn Hicks曾指导过Jennifer Lopez、 Mary J. Blige和Spice Girls。除了这些极具经验的专业人物之外,性感小野猫的成员和其他意想不到的嘉宾都将在节目中陆续出现,启发参赛者善用才华去打动评判。评判包括Geffen唱片公司主席Ron Fair,Robin Antin和曾获格莱美提名的Lil' Kim。 本次节目共有十集,在节目尾段,胜出者组成三人女子组合Girlicious,并立即投入到录制唱片、拍摄音乐录影带等工作中,和Nelly Furtado、Mary J. Blige、Keisha Cole等大明星同台演出,赢得Geffen唱片公司的合约。Mark McGrath是该节目的司仪,介绍参赛者和比赛流程.每场比赛参赛者需在台上展示自己的唱功和舞技。三名评委会闭门讨论参赛者的舞台表现,达成共识后,由Antin宣布谁将被淘汰。Following in the wake of the multi-platinum girl group Pussycat Dolls came Girlicious, a pop quartet whose music was also rooted in sexually charged slick R&B/pop. The group consists of Nichole Cordova, Tiffanie Anderson, Chrystina Sayers, and Natalie Mejia, and was formed in 2008 by Robin Antin, creator and founder of the Pussycat Dolls. In order to capitalize on the success that her first pop group had achieved across the globe, Antin produced a reality television program to search for the next pop sensation. After thousands auditioned with hopes and dreams of being part of the next "it" group, Antin selected 15 participants who would compete in a program called Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious. The contestants performed rigorous dance routines and delivered group and solo vocal performances as the judges on the show eliminated the competitors, until there were only four left. In the finale, Antin had planned to eliminate one more contestant to achieve her desired group; however, at the last minute she decided that Girlicious should operate as a foursome rather than a trio — thus, Cordova, Anderson, Sayers and Mejia all made the cut. Immediately after the public discovered who was going to be in the group, the quartet dropped a digital EP, entitled Like Me/Stupid S**t. The EP was a huge success in digital media outlets such as iTunes, and "Like Me" became particularly successful in Canada, hitting number one in video rotations and number four on the Canadian Hot 100. The song also charted on the Billboard Pop 100, mostly because of digital downloads. Their self-titled debut album was slated for release in July 2008, and they agreed to tour with the Backstreet Boys for their Unbreakable Tour that same summer, promoting the album.
