Doll Domination Tour 2009



The Pussycat Dolls – Doll Domination Tour 2009
With very special guest Lady GaGa

Teasing and tantalizing Australia with brief but dazzling appearances in Sydney and Melbourne last month, global pop superstars Pussycats Dolls will bring their Doll Domination Tour to Australia in May 2009!

Hot on the heels of their second album release Doll Domination (Universal), Pussycat Dolls kick off their 2009 world tour in the UK before heading down under to play all-ages arena shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth featuring the same spectacular production that Europe will see in February.

This scorching band of singer/dancers have quickly become without doubt one of the most popular and globally successful girl groups ever.

There has been no escape from the super catchy Platinum hit “When I Grow Up”, the first single lifted from Doll Domination, quickly followed by the top 10 hit “I Hate This Part”.

Showing their brand of hot, confident attitude, Pussycat Dolls shot to fame in 2005 with the release of their massive debut single “Don’t Cha” featuring Busta Rhymes, hitting number 1 in charts around the world.

Released the same year, their debut album PCD has sales of over 7 million worldwide, claiming Platinum and Gold status in 36 countries. PCD features the huge hits “Buttons”, the Grammy nominated “Stickwitu”, “Beep”, and “Wait A Minute”, helping to bring the album’s Australian sales to 3 times Platinum.

Joining the bill is Lady GaGa. Performing intimate, exclusive club shows in Melbourne and Sydney last September, singer, songwriter, musician Lady GaGa thrilled fans lucky enough to attend! Showcasing her Top 10 album The Fame, the debut release now boasts two infectious Number 1 singles – “Just Dance”, and “Poker Face” which is currently residing at the top of the ARIA Singles Chart.

Don’t miss Pussycat Dolls - Nicole, Ashley, Jessica, Melody, and Kimberly – and Lady GaGa live:
