Pussycat Dolls Present

This is the first episode in the contest that follows the search for the next Pussycat Doll. Eighteen wanna-be Dolls are split into three groups and given a song-and-dance routine to a different Pussycat Dolls song and rehearse. During these auditions come some surprises: the girls get to go to a Pussycat Dolls' concert and meet the group. But during the work and play comes illness, and eight of the girls come down with mysterious stomach flu. The show must go on, and the girls audition, even though some don't feel well. After all the groups go, the judges make their decision, and the final nine are chosen and given their boas.

The girls move into their loft on the Sunset Strip, and after getting advice from PCD members, the girls are told about their challenge: they have to perform a song and dance routine at the Pussycat Dolls’ Lounge. After rehearsing, the girls are taken out of dinner at Basque where Robin and Mikey reveal their next challenge: they will perform in sexy lingerie in a glass box. The winner of this performance is Asia, and for that, she is safe at elimination. Performance night finally comes, and after the three groups go, Brittany is let go and hangs up her boa.

The day after elimination, the remaining eight hopefuls get a message from the Pussycat Dolls and a visit from PCD member Kimberly Wyatt, who tells them how persona is important. When she finishes her talk, the girls are split into two groups of four to learn a new song and dance routine. During their rehearsals, Robin surprises the girls with a makeover by her brother Jonathan Antin, hairstylist to the stars. He gives the girls all a new look to help them find their personas. After their new looks are completed, the girls meet with Robin, Mikey, Lil Kim, and Pussycat Doll’s manager Jeff Haddad for dinner at a hot spot in Hollywood. The next morning, the girls are taken to Ron Fair’s recording studio Record Planet. Each works with Ron and records vocal to the chorus of the Pussycat Dolls’ hit song Don’t Cha. It turns out that this is a challenge, and the winner is Melissa S. She is safe at the upcoming elimination. When elimination night does come, each group performs, but Group one does better than group two. In the end, Jaime hangs up her boa.

The remaining seven finalists get visited by Pussycat Dolls Ashley Roberts and Carmit Bachar, who give them a few creative tips. When they are through with that, the girls take part in a disco-themed performance, and then teach choreography to their male partners. After the dancing if all finished, another girl is eliminated and hangs up her boa.

The remaning hopefuls compete in another conpetition and one more girl is leaves.
