COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

Auditioning to be a Pussycat Doll is the biggest risk I've ever taken. My parents didn't approve of this career because they're both doctors. And I do wanna show my dad that there are different ways to be successful. - Melissa R.

Competition is fierce. I did notice one girl. Her name is Asia and she's competition. - Melissa R.

I feel like my competition is Melissa R. because I feel like we kinda look similar. It frustrates me because I don't wanna be equal to nobody. - Asia

So of all the girls that I've noticed, I noticed Asia and that she's my competition. But like they say, keep your friends close and your enemies closer. - Melissa R.

I think that you're beautiful and you're a great dancer. You're super funky. - Robin

Well, for me, you're the full package. And if I were one of those girls, I would be intimidated. - Mikey

I get to choose to be another Pussycat Doll is once in a million. Like a chance in a lifetime. It's my passion and my dream and I'm actually good at it (I'm not sure if I heard this right especially the first part). - Melissa R.

PERFORMANCES
Crazy in Love - Asia, Chelsea and Melissa S.
Pon de Replay - Anastacia, Sisely and Melissa R.

COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

I'm going to put my socks right here (on the bed) and make it smell. Now it's mine! - Melissa R.

Are you kidding me? No, I don't… I do not do that. - Melissa R. (on dancing @ club Basque)

Oh my gosh. My parents are gonna see me. My priest is gonna watch us. - Melissa R.

I think that you are like so funky and I love your voice. I love the tone of your voice and I know that if you stay in this competition, you have a lot of potential to grow and you'll go so far. - Robin

I feel like she has the most potential. - Robin

She wasn't really owning it but I still think she belongs in this competition. - Ron

COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

After the elimination, we went home and everyone was shaken up and exhausted. And then, there were 8. - Melissa R.

Sicely didn't seem in to the makeover. She is feeling very pressured this week. - Melissa R.

I heard you better. This wasn't your finest hour as a singer. - Ron

I'm nervous because they said that one of the girls in the weakest group is gonna be eliminated and I feel that my group is the weakest group so I am definitely nervous. - Melissa R.

I love the sound of her voice and I love the way that she dances. - Robin

She got a really good voice but she did not sing well tonight at all. - Ron

COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

I saw you dropped your boa… a little messy. - Robin

You know, I don't think you are inside the attitude maybe because you guys are too young to know where this really came from. - Ron

I think that she has a lot of potential. - Robin

She has just a sort of deer in headlight thing that she has to overcome (???). She looses her juice. Well, she's young. - Ron

COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

We are like trying to stand up and dance. But the whole time, we are like falling down to each other like colliding, arms everywhere, legs everywhere, feet, hair flying. It's like crazy. - Melissa R.

It's just nerveracking because we just learned the song today and learned choreography today. We just got our wardrobe. I guess this is what you do when you are a celebrity. You know, like last minute performance. - Melissa R.

Melissa R. is my biggest competition but I feel, when it's based on performing, I'm a better performer. When it's based on dancing, I'm a better dancer. - Asia

I'm sorry. I was just thinking of my grandma. I tried to hold it myself but it's kinda hard. - Melissa R.

You did an incredible performance. I mean, I felt that this was the best performance of this competition for you. - Robin

It's great to be sensitive and to be feeling and I think it's a beautiful thing but not when your in battle field of showbiz.You can't
allow any noise to enter into your brain when you are in the middle of a performance. - Ron

What I want to tell you is try your best to not stop singing. You know what I mean? Trust me, I know because I have to perform literally two weeks after Biggie died so try not to stop singing. because something amazing could come out of that emotion. - Li'l Kim

She can sing. She can dance. She's the whole package. - Robin

COMMENTS AND INTERVIEWS

From all the PCD, I think relate to Melody the most. She's the youngest. She became a Pussycat Doll when she was 18. I'm 18. I
totally love Melody's style and I know I could learn so much from her. - Melissa R.

I have some boob pads that a lot of dancers wear to make themselves look sexier. But I'm still not comfortable wearing them around. - Melissa R.

This PCD hopeful knew she has a bright future. Melissa R saw the sun come out at a tender age of 9, rocking up trophies left and right, singing Annie's Tomorrow at countless talent shows. - Caress Trivia

I'm goofy. I'm not afraid to express myself. - Melissa R.

I'm getting closer to becoming a PCD and now its getting so real. And it's scary. I'd always been sheltered but if I win this, my whole life is gonna change. - Melissa R.

I'm concentrating on my performance and just being myself, who I am, and letting the crowd see that. I hope my parents are proud of me for this. - Melissa R.

All I meant was misery loves company. And I definitely didnt mean to say Chelsea was a bad dancer. But I think that's what Melissa S. meant. - Melissa R.

I know I should be happy right now but being treated like were PCD kinda scared me a little bit. I am young and I'm still trying to find myself. But at the same time, it just feels overwhelming. I'm forgetting about what my morals are. I'm forgetting who I am. I want to take things slower.- Melissa R.

My mind is like broken puzzle. It just scares me. You know like people judge. I just want to do it. Just to do it. Like I don't care about the money. I don't care about the fame. I don't care about all that. - Melissa R.

You really showed your own style which what the PCD is all about. It looks like Melissa was relaxed. - Robyn

Melissa R. is so good, her facials, her body movement. She just embodied everything that it takes to be a PCD. And that's why she won the challenge. - Mikey

I'm just glad I'm not going home for the eliminitaion round. I'm safe and that's all I need to know for now. - Melissa R.

I have to say, this was the one you've nailed because, in rehearsal, you were having a few issues here and there and to me, you nailed it. - Robyn

I'm really nervous about doing the old school PCD because it's really sexy and once again, i do not know what my parents would think.
