Countdown To 2010: The Top 10 Videos Of 2009

#3) The Pussycat Dolls "Hush Hush; Hush Hush"

The Pussycat Dolls "Hush Hush; Hush Hush" Video Premiere

"Hush Hush; Hush Hush" serves as the second single off The Pussycat Dolls' Doll Domination 2.0. I LOVE this video. I'm a sucker for a colorful video with multiple sets & looks, & I even like the shirt Perez Hilton, who makes a cameo, is wearing. The clip was directed by Rich Lee, who is behind Fergie's "Clumsy" & is my hero! Plus, you gotta admit (even though you won't) that Nicole sounded great on this. On the downside, is that not the worst song title ever..?

The Pussycat Dolls Perform "Jai Ho" On Rove

The Pussycat Dolls have some of the best people in the business doing their scheduling for them because as much as I like their music, I sure can get awfully sick of it by the time they've promoted it all around the world. They performed "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)" on Rove recently, but were down a Doll (Jessica), though--honestly--it didn't exactly make a difference. PCD's Doll Domination 2.0 is coming soon.

The Pussycat Dolls Perform & Nicole Acts On One Life To Live

"Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)"

Nicole's Scene

The Pussycat Dolls performed "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)" recently on the soap opera One Life To Live, while Nicole even got her actress on a little. It was really cool to see them make an appearance in a unique way. Btw, the awkwardness with the kid in the wheelchair during the performance makes more sense if you watch Nicole's scene first. PCD should be releasing Doll Domination 2.0 pretty soon.

The Pussycat Dolls Perform "Jai Ho" On Ellen

The Pussycat Dolls performed "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)" again, this time on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. The song is off PCD's forthcoming re-release Doll Domination 2.0, which has been pushed back to an unknown date. Be sure to catch their chat with Ellen at the end... how sweet!

The Pussycat Dolls Perform On 2009 Kids' Choice Awards + Winners

The Pussycat Dolls, strutting more clothing than normal, took the stage at the 2009 Kids' Choice Awards earlier tonight to perform "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)" & "When I Grow Up." To be honest, the showings weren't anything we haven't seen before, & while "Jai Ho" isn't really something I would expect kids to connect with, they made it up with the latter. The Dolls were good though. PCD will release Doll Domination 2.0 on April 14th. If you're interested in the winners, which include Beyonce & "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa," click HERE.

The Pussycat Dolls' Pro7 Commercial

Here's a really cool commercial The Pussycat Dolls did for Pro7, which is a German TV station. The clip almost acts as a sleek music video for their song "Takin' Over The World," but the chorus includes the words "we love to entertain you," the network's slogan, instead. I like! PCD will release Doll Domination 2.0 on April 14th.

The Pussycat Dolls To Perform At Kids' Choice Awards

The Pussycat Dolls are all set to dominate Saturday's 2009 Kids' Choice Awards on Nickelodeon. They will hit the stage for a performance of "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)." Kids' Choice meets the Oscars! I love it.

The Pussycat Dolls "Doll Domination 2.0" Details

Check the cover art for Doll Domination 2.0 from The Pussycat Dolls above. It's definitely hot, even if I prefer the version without the gray background over their faces. On April 14th, PCD will drop this 10-track set, which features four new songs: "Jai Ho (You Are My Destiny)," "Top Of The World" from MTV's The City, the Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins-produced "Painted Windows," & the tour remix of "Hush Hush," which features vocals from "I Will Survive." The other six tracks will be made up of three hits ("When I Grow Up," "I Hate This Part," & "Bottle Pop") & three fan favorites ("Takin' Over The World," "Halo," & "I'm Done"). I think this is a great idea, especially with all the random songs the Dolls have been putting out lately that can now be found all in one place. That said, this set is far from perfect. Uh, where's "Whatcha Think About That?" You can't pretend like there wasn't a video for it. I would also suggest placing the "I Hate This Part (Dave Aude Dance Hybrid Mix)" on this release since it's the version they've performed & that people are familiar with. I'm quite puzzled how they came up with those three "fan favorites" too, but I would still recommend picking up the original Doll Domination because it's phenomenal!

I Hate This Part

The Pussycat Dolls performed their two hits off the soon-to-be re-released Doll Domination (details coming soon) while visiting Much On Demand recently. Sounds like that Britney tour is taking its toll. Don't work too hard, girls!

This morning, The Pussycat Dolls took over network TV by performing their remix of "Jai Ho" on Live With Regis & Kelly, & appearing on Today for an interview as well as a sneak preview of the "Jai Ho" music video. The performance was on-point & the video promises to be as well. PCD's second album Doll Domination is available now.

The Pussycat Dolls Perform "Jai Ho" On Late Night With Jimmy Fallon

The Pussycat Dolls took to the stage to perform their remix of "Jai Ho" for the first time on Late Night, newly helmed by Jimmy Fallon. The Dolls did a great job & Nicole's vocals were awesome as usual, but I'm still wondering why the other four even had microphones in their hands. Still, a nice showing from PCD, who have been on the road with Britney Spears. Has anybody seen & does anyone like Jimmy Fallon hosting? (It HAS to be better than Conan!) Anyway, The Pussycat Dolls' sophomore album Doll Domination is out now.

The Pussycat Dolls On This Morning

"Whatcha Think About That"

Interview

The Pussycat Dolls performed their latest UK single "Whatcha Think About That" & participated in an interview on This Morning. It's too bad the song didn't do so well over here because I quite like it. I also have a newfound respect for Nicole after seeing her perform (& hit those notes!) in that corset they discussed. PCD's sophomore album Doll Domination is out now.

The Pussycat Dolls Record Oscar-Winning "Jai Ho"

The Pussycat Dolls have put their own spin on the winner for Best Original Song at last night's Academy Awards, "Jai Ho." Along with A.R. Rahman, the man behind the music of this year's Best Picture winner, "Slumdog Millionaire," The Pussycat Dolls have recorded "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)," with Nicole Scherzinger's lead vocals being produced by Ron Fair. The track can be purchased on iTunes HERE, but you can stream it HERE. This definitely makes the song bearable to say the least! Don't forget that PCD's latest album Doll Domination is available now.

The Pussycat Dolls "Bad Girl" Song Premiere

Off the "Confessions Of A Shopaholic" soundtrack comes "Bad Girl," a new song from The Pussycat Dolls. If it sounds familiar, it's because Rihanna's version (which, ironically enough, features Chris Brown) leaked recently. While I like both versions, I have to give the edge to PCD & my girl Nicole. The Dolls' sophomore album Doll Domination is in stores now.
