The Pussycat Dolls gave a performance at the Fashion Rocks pre-pary on Thursday (September 4) in New York City.

The band recently said they don’t want to be known as strippers, Kimberly Wyatt from the group says “I get upset at the way some people talk about us. They dismiss us as if we’re strippers, but we’re not like that at all. I’ve trained for this all my life. I did tap-dancing, jazz and ballet.“

She adds “but at the end of the day, people just want to put you in some sort of box. With us, that box is always marked ‘raunchy’. But the most important thing to me is that I am honest and feel good about myself. If people insist on calling me raunchy, well, then maybe I am raunchy. But I’m comfortable with who I am and how I present myself.”
