Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious [Episode 10 - Finale]
April 25, 2008
It's time for the FINALE!!!!!!! And soon we will find out who will be in GIRLICIOUS!!!
Excited Robin?
The episode started off with Chrystina telling Natalie that she feels like the underdog. Now, in the Rules Of Reality TV, this does not bode well for Chrystina since it means she's the first to be highlighted and therefore will be the one who is eliminated. But perhaps the producers of the show now know that we know, so maybe they've mixed it up, ya know?
But this underdog talk ends well with Chrystina and Natalie agreeing that no matter what the outcome, they will still be friends. Awwww. Puke.
Then we switch over to Nichole and Charlye who are all cuddled up together, talking back and forth about God knows what. Honestly, I could not make any sense of it, but they did a fine job of finishing each other's sentences.
"It's just looking beyond --"
"-- the surface of things."
And thus starts what I like to call "The Episode of Speaking In Cliches." But can you blame them? Week after week, we hear Robin bark out, "The rest of your life begins right now!" Of course this is gonna rub off on the girls, no?
And then for the PLASMA MESSAGE! (At least that's what I think this "Tyra Mail" rip-off is called. I never really know what they yell out here when the plasma message comes because even though these girls can sing, articulation is not their forte).
"Hey Ladies, what's up? It's your girl Nicole from The Pussycat Dolls."
Yeah, no shit, Sherlock. How unnecessary is that intro? Hey Nicole, how about you introduce the other girls in the group instead because I still have no idea who they are.
One of the other no-name Dolls then tells us that there is one final lesson: "Trust yourself."
I'm not convinced that "trust yourself" is a lesson. That's not even fortune cookie worthy. But this is Robin Antin we are talking about, the Queen of Cliches, remember? "Trust yourself" is probably just a leftover from her young days as Mistress of Mantras.
And speaking of cliches, Nichole now can't wait to use one:
"I just wanted to say thank you for seeing something in us." And then goes on to say that she feels so "lucky" and that it's "all hitting me now."
Everyone thinks Nichole is so innocent and sweet, but I see beyond that bubblegum exterior. She's a flat out brown-noser and it's all for show. She's even prematurely wiping non-existent tears. I'm on to her.
But Robin falls for it and actually produces real tears. Or is she just checking to make sure her latest botox injections aren't leaking? You decide:
After that spout of emotion, it's time to get down to business as Robin announces what the final performances are going to be.
We learn that first there will be a group performance and the girls will sing...
"Ladies Night!"
"by Kool and the Gang."
Wow. "Ladies Night" produces whoops of joy but "Kool and the Gang" is an instant kill joy. This goes to show that these girls simply have no clue. What version of "Ladies Night" were they expecting? The one by unknown Japanese songstress Ayumi Hamasaki?
[Side note: No wonder Chrystina feels like such an underdog. Homegirl wore flip-flops to dance rehearsal.]
We then find out that after the group performance, everyone will sing their solos. The only one who is upset, of course, is Chrystina who doesn't know her song: Heart's "What About Love."
Then it's time for some one-on-ones with Ron.
When Natalie is asked how she gets along with the other girls, she responds:
"Well I'm one of the most compatible people I feel like in the house to be perfectly honest."
Well Natalie, to be "perfectly honest," you are a liar; generally when people are talking with their eyes closed, they have something to hide. Just sayin. And apparently you are someone who can't figure out proper sentence structure.
Then it's Charlye's turn with Ron and when asked what would happen if she wasn't in the group, she responds with: "I think that if I don't make it in this group, I would go back to school."
Ron's reaction?
The look of death. I'm surprised we couldn't see actual smoke come out of his ears. If there's one thing that Ron hates, it's that evil education.
And then to jump on the cliche bandwagon, Ron goes on to say that he needs people in the group who will hold hands with him and jump off cliffs. OK, I guess that's not really a cliche, but more just the ramblings of a crazy person.
Then in singing rehearsal, Underdog Chrystina has trouble with her song to which Kenn Hicks says: "I think she needs to marinate with this and put herself in it."
Kenn would know all about marinating as apparently he's been marinating in a big tub of Vaseline and ultra shine lip gloss:
Though all kidding aside, I do have to say that I love Kenn Hicks. He seems to be the most compassionate person on this entire show and I dig that.
Then after dance rehearsal, Natalie becomes the sourpuss(ycat doll) and complains to Chrystina that Tiffanie was hogging all the attention. Chrystina tells Natalie not to get defeated, but Natalie thinks that being defeated is a good thing, stating:
"If I go into this blind, Chrystina, you don't understand, if I sit here and be like I'm in the group and then my name is NOT called? Do you know what that would feel like?"
Um, yes Natalie, she would since she's IN THE EXACT SAME POSITION AS YOU.
So then it's off to practice their solos and everyone seemingly has their doubts. And of course Natalie continues the game of cliches by stating:
"I will take it to the top."
"I will take it to the sky."
"For me, the sky's the limit."
Then the girls are whisked off to the stage for their final performances!
Everytime Mark McGrath shows up, I think:
a- I totally forgot he was part of the show,
b- I totally forgot he still exists, and
c- Who's the Neanderthal?
Hey Mark, 10,000 BC called - they need you for re-shoots.
The girls do their performance of "Ladies Night."
Not only do they try to out-sing each other, they also compete to see who can swing their right arm around the best.
Then Tiffanie does her solo of "Natural Woman."
There is absolutely nothing "natural" about this. All I see is the whites of her eyes and her hand slowly moving toward her naughty place. She's like Linda Blair as Cruise Ship Performer.
Charlye then sings "Before He Cheats." Meh.
Then Nichole sings "Giving Him Something He Can Feel" after which Lil Kim exclaims, "Oh Nichole, I just love you" to which Nichole responds, "I love YOU!"
Yeah right. Like Nichole has ever listened to a single Lil Kim song that wasn't Lady Marmalade. Likely story...
Speaking of Lil Kim:
I fear for her breasts. That top of hers must be screaming. Something will surely pop.
Natalie then sings "Say It Right." It's pretty boooooring, but my favourite part?
No matter what concert or function you are at, there will always be one tall, awkward white guy boppin' along to the beat.
Chrystina then sings "What About Love."
Ron seems to thoroughly enjoy it. Or he's had one drink too many:
He's probably just thinking about jumping off cliffs.
Then the judges deliberate. When the girls are called back, the first member called out to be in Girlicious is....
Nichole!
Who bursts into a solo rendition of YMCA.
And then the second girl to be in Girlicious is....
Tiffanie!
Scariest. Reaction. Ever. At first I thought she had been shot, but no, these are convulsions of joy apparently. And it's hideous. I'd hate to see her in actual pain.
Lil Kim is as equally disgusted as I:
Then Robin tells us that the next name that is called will NOT be in Girlicious. And that person is...
Charlye!
Charlye really got a raw deal here. Usually when people get kicked out, they get some time to share some parting words of wisdom, to hang up their boa, but no, not Charlye. She just walks into the black abyss that is stage right, never to be heard of again.
But then the twist! (That's not really a twist, but rather just something completely obvious).
Girlicious will be FOUR girls instead of three! Everyone falls to the ground in joy...
...but to me, it looks like they are all losing their shit as if they were in the firey pits of Hell:
After seeing this, I'm now fully convinced that Robin Antin is Satan and Girlicious will be her group of demon sidekicks. Absolutely frightening.
So there you have it folks: GIRLICIOUS!!!!
And now for their debut music video:
But I have to ask: who are these people? I don't recognize anyone from the actual show. The girl in the front looks like the lesbian bartender from The OC. And the others? Never seem them before in my life.
Which just goes to show that no matter who you are, in this funny business we call Show, you can be transformed into someone you're not. And isn't that what being a role model is all about?
*crickets crickets*
At least Robin is still happy:
Check out the following music videos from Girlicious!

Loved these recaps! They were waaaay better (and funnier!) than watching the show :)
Posted by: cutieslug at April 25, 2008 02:55 PM
ahaha i totally think nichole looks like the bartender off the oc
Posted by: meg at April 25, 2008 03:50 PM
Why did they take Nat and Chrys? They are the worst people I have ever had the misfortune to watch on TV. The suck hardcore and should never have made it that far. Seems just like when the pussycat dolls were searching for a new member. They picked the worst out of the whole bunch and sent the good ones packing. I can totally see this group not lasting to the end of the promo of the first album.
Posted by: Tammy at April 25, 2008 04:15 PM
Your recaps are so funny! I love them!
Posted by: �ve at April 25, 2008 04:24 PM
love all those girl and im so happy 2 this grouppppp
Posted by: julia zeidan zeitoune at April 25, 2008 06:03 PM
why did they take Chrys???? this is my opinion but i hate the way her top lip is formed...it looks like she mumbles very single word she says! I hate that... it just really bugs me and i think that Nat is a Bi**h
Posted by: Amanda at April 25, 2008 06:39 PM
I am totally disapointed in the finale of this show. Natalie and Chrystina made it in but Charlye didn't?! WTH?! Apparently Robin needs to stop smoking crack because she picked two of the WORST girls on the show to be in the group. Furthermore the first music video for Girlicious made me want to puke....just god awefull. They won't be around after the first album, guaranteed.
Posted by: Sara at April 25, 2008 07:36 PM
personaly, nat and chrys should NOT be in the group! THEY TOTALLY SUCK! they are both stupid. charyle should have been in girlicious!
Posted by: N at April 25, 2008 08:02 PM
Hilarious.
Posted by: DEO at April 25, 2008 09:19 PM
i'm so happy there four people on the show! and its good that chrys and nat 9the 2 best friends0 are in the gruop togther!
anyway, did anyone watch that video?? Its ok, but at the end is sooo retarded, Geffen has taken it too far. LOL!
Posted by: Karly at April 25, 2008 09:35 PM
Nichole is obviously the best, I'm really happy she made it. But what in the world was Robin thinking, taking on Chrystina and natalie instead of Charlye? What a retard! Charlye is so much better then both of them!
Posted by: Cho at April 25, 2008 09:57 PM
Nichole does look like the lesbian bartender girl from The O.C. and her name
is Alex.Oh and DO NOT i repeat DO NOT make fun of The O.C. or i will kill you in your sleep!
GOOOOOOOOOO NICHOLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I knew nichole was going to be in girlicious,i planned it from the begining
and i was sooooo right!
Posted by: OCgirl1 at April 25, 2008 10:25 PM
i knew it charlie was so not cooperative with the other girls...i think it's the best girlz who winn because nat is the diva, nicole the sweet one, christina the mysterious and sexy girl and tiffany the voice and the power girl.
Posted by: laurence at April 26, 2008 12:38 AM
oh and..by the way nice recap
Posted by: laurence at April 26, 2008 12:39 AM
omfg dude ok ROBIN ANTIN... you fuckin just ruined music thanks man , i cant even express how this vidoe made me feel.. its a DISGRACE TO EVERY LIVING ORGANISM!!! u r horrible
Posted by: girliciousmycornholeyousuck at April 26, 2008 05:25 AM
omg you suck my balls
Posted by: fuck at April 26, 2008 05:32 AM
OMG you're right, nicole does look like the bartender from the O.C that was my first though =P
Posted by: fan at April 26, 2008 09:24 AM
It was the beginning of the end for Charlye as soon as she started being honest about not knowing if the group was right for her. Instead of lying to Ron and Robin like some of the other girls did, she told the truth and obviously paid for it. I still don't get what the big deal is about Chrystina. Some of the other girls who were eliminated before worked harder than she did and were more consistent. She's basically there for her looks and nothing else. Hey! That's exactly like most of the the "Pussycat Dolls".
I completely agree about the music video too. I could tell who Nichole was (maybe because she's the only blonde one), but I was having a hard time seeing the same people....
Posted by: J at April 26, 2008 10:23 AM
wow, i hate these results. im absoulutely speechless! re-do, please.
Posted by: Ng L. at April 26, 2008 11:31 AM
GIRLICIOUS HAD TO BE THE WORST SHOW MADE TO DATE. THE BULLS**T JUDGING TOGETHER WITH KNOWING WHO WAS GOING TO BE PICKED AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE OF WEEKS WAS SO BLATANT. EVEN THE CRAP OF THE SECOND LAST SHOW WAS SO F'N RIDICULOUS, TRYING TO CONVINCE PEOPLE THAT YOU WERE GIVING ALL 5 GIRLS ONE LAST CHANCE WAS PURE CRAP. IF THEY WOULD HAVE KICKED OUT CHARLIE TOO SOON THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO FINALE. WHAT A JOKE, EVERY F'N GIRL KICKED OUT HAD ABSOLUTELY NO F'N CHANCE OF EVER BEING IN THE GROUP. AND IF THOSE WERE THE TOP GIRLS OUT OF SUPPOSEDLY THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF GIRLS, ONCE AGAIN, WHAT A F'N JOKE. PLEASE NO MORE SHOWS!!!!!!
Posted by: ANGELA at April 26, 2008 12:26 PM
HAHAH wat an awesome review
and btw girlicious also has another music video that i don't think much music is gunna play. its called stupid sh** and you can check it out on youtube. i must say its very raunchy.
Posted by: Nguyenhm at April 26, 2008 03:59 PM
natile and christina rock end of damn story! they made it and whoever actually rites the recaps is so stupid.

Posted by: brianne at April 26, 2008 06:52 PM
y'all need to shut the f**k up christina and natalie are the best christina has been nice and genuwine all way through shes such a sweet girl and tiffanie is a bully loveeee group
Posted by: leah at April 26, 2008 07:30 PM
All you people who comented are fucking retarded!
Robin is the fucking best!
You got a problem with it, SUCK MY BALLS!
Nichole does not look like the Bartender off the O.C,and if she did it is because of her makeup!
See ya, SHIT HEADS!
Posted by: Alley at April 26, 2008 08:18 PM
I know girlicious is supposed to be kind of revealing but this is too much! I know that the girls have talent but whats the point of all that work if you don't sing good on the videos and songs?? Especially on the stupid Shi one. Oh my god! It's just a total waste of all their talents. I really am obsessed with the show and ive been waiting for the finale but now the fun is gone and the show is over. Id prefer the show to the actual group after seeing all this. Its sad, actually. They have gone overboard and changed them, Nichole looks ugly now, they are tryin to make chrys look like beyonce (she looks bad now too), natalie is the only one who looks decent but she barely sings, and tiffany is in the background(its not fair).The whole thing... I just don't want the group to fall apart and the show has become my favourite and I want them to change back to their old selves b4 its too late.No offense, but i hate the songs. I miss my old girlicious.
Posted by: Priti at April 26, 2008 09:58 PM
Its great that there is four members! and awseme recap!!
Did anyone watch the stupid s*** video??
I thought that soo wasnt the true Girlicious! come one! The end was just ridiculus! I totally agree with you Karly! Geffen has taken it too far in that video!

HAHAHA!Brittany's like...hi.HAHAHA!
Thats soooo funny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you dont get it then you're stupid.
You have to be in my world to get it.
OMG!The new girls look totally different and when i say different i mean different
kind of nice.I know,I dont make sense.
Nichole=lesbian bartender from The O.C.
Tiffany=A TOTAL DIFFERENT UGLY BITCH!
Natalie=A different version of Marissa from The O.C. but more like a witch
Chrystina=Looks like Mellissa S. from last season but she doesn't look all that
different,looks nice!All of them look nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I LOVE there 2 new songs=
Like Me and Stupid Shit
GOODNIGHT BITCHES!
Posted by: OCgirl1 at April 26, 2008 11:09 PM
my god you'd think with a name like girliciuos it would be I don't know um girly not slutty like way to sell your morals and self image, and for what to sell a cd that people wont remember 5 years from now congrads and put some clothes on if you want respect like a real artist gets. Little kids are watching and im pretty sure they get enough of that from strippers and the other so called role models out there as it is.
Posted by: amy at April 27, 2008 03:21 AM
i thinkk nicole shouldd be outt she doesnt knoww how to dancee
Posted by: Tara at April 27, 2008 10:22 AM
omgg i love Tiffany
Posted by: Tara at April 27, 2008 10:23 AM
CHRYSTINA AND NATALLIE ARE THE BEST
the group was picked really good .. tiffanie is my least favorite but its still goood
Posted by: hgfhdgfh at April 27, 2008 01:46 PM
omg i am so glad that the four girls are going to respect each other now that charly is not in the group. I thnik right from the start she had not being the best girl that she could be. I think it was a good idea that Robin had said charley u will not in the group that was my faVORITE PART of the show. Some peoople say that crystna should had not be in the group but they are wrong because she has talent but the others girls are wrong she has has been in the botem 2 for a little while. When i first saw this show for the first time and when i saw natlie i said to my self she will not be in girliouces but i was worng
Posted by: Gabrielaa at April 27, 2008 05:30 PM
haha... who ever writes these recaps is HILARIOUS! well done!
I'm personally happy wth the results of girlicious; if they actually produce music worth listening to, i'd download them in a heartbeat!
Posted by: Amber-D at April 27, 2008 06:28 PM
i am so happy that natilie made it and chrystina.tiffany and nicole are kool and i am happy that all of them won.:) i cant wait till their cd come out
Posted by: sweetheart17 at April 27, 2008 08:09 PM
I don't know how any of you can possibly think that Nat and Chrys are any good for this group. THEY TOTALLY SUCK!!!! What freaking show were you watching. The only one with any talent that I can see is Nicole. Her dancing isn't any different than anyone elses. I agree with Sara. Robyn really does need to lay off the crack. That or share with the rest of us so that we can see what she is seeing.....
Posted by: Tammy at April 27, 2008 08:52 PM
i am glad tiffanie and chrystina made it in, but i just wish that carrie most of all had made it in to, as well as ilisa that would be my favourite group
Posted by: johnny at April 27, 2008 10:01 PM
I love this group I think they are all very talented.
Posted by: jigglywiggly at April 27, 2008 10:08 PM
seriously, i cannot believe how stupid ppl can get. charlye didn't make the group cuz she couldn't get along w/ christyna and natalie. tiff and nicole had no prob getting along w/ them. and, seriously, why is every1 saying that christyna should b out? she is really talented and can get along with every1. she was nice from the beginning. and another thing, all of them can sing. i bet half or more than half of u cant even sing a tune. jeez, ppl can b so steriotypical.
Posted by: Trisha at April 28, 2008 10:58 AM
natile was my favorite but tiffanie was to off the streets , like alot of gurls do act all fucking hard and shit but i didnt like that , im happy 3 of the gurls who but not tiffanie
Posted by: athena at April 28, 2008 12:20 PM
Love Chrystina, Natalie and Nicole. Tiffany looks like a dude, she's ghetto, and thus should not be in the group. Glad Charlye didn't make it, as she is Satan Incarnate. Carrie was my favorite from episode one so it was hard to see her go, she could really sing, but I knew it would happen eventually. If you can't show tummy, you can't be in Girlicious.
Posted by: Jen at April 28, 2008 12:37 PM
HAHAHA! Hilarious...Girlicious is my guilty pleasure :)
Posted by: Erica at April 28, 2008 03:09 PM
I love Nichole she's my favorite she has the best voice out of tha whole group christina is alsoO really good i lovee her as well shes fuckin sexii, natilie is sexii shitt and shes good for tha group,, i really dont like Tiffiny her voice is manly and she looks manly, butt i love her attuitde and how shes a hoood chik,she would be better off rapping.
Posted by: Nikky.G3E at April 28, 2008 04:28 PM
i love girlicious :)
shur i am sad that charlye never made it into the group cuz i loved her
but i also think robin made the right decision and they will go far :)
i love them already lol :)
Posted by: cassie at April 28, 2008 05:26 PM
the really sucky thing is that all these girls can sing and dance, but the in the music videos they're all major whores and you can even hear their amazing voices!
Posted by: Becky<3 at April 28, 2008 06:14 PM
Although, charlye shouldn't of made it in the girlicious group! The rest so totally deserves to be there!! go gurls

CONGRATULATIONS!!! goes out to all the winners!They worked hard to become Girlicious everyone one of them. The two songs are awesome especially the boxing ring video-Great. The 2nd song is a bit filmsy but good. Great job Robin for picking the four. I did like Char voice too-a group got to work together as any team should !!!

Posted by: stephanie at May 6, 2008 01:44 PM
I agree with most people that Nat & Chrys do not deserve to be in this band unless the plan was for them to try to be a one hit wonder but after watching the videos they won't even get that. Nat & Chrys are the worst lipsyncers I have ever seen. All the two of them do is flick their hair around...they are going to sink this group before it even starts.
Posted by: Sarah at May 7, 2008 06:28 PM
When the show first started with the 15 girls, I knew that Natalie was gonna be one of the girls that was gonna win.
I've been rooting for her most of all and I just knew she was gonna win.
She's def changed since the first episode along with the other girls who made it into Girlicious.
I like all 4 girls.
They all so talented.
Nichole is the prettiest!
Chrystina def impressed me tho.
Before the show ended, I honestly didn't think she was gonna win but her last performance was amazing!
I couldn't believe it.
She def improved.
I love their both of their videos!
Like Me and Stupid Shit.
Awesome songs!
Congrats to Natalie, Nichole, Chrystina and Tiffany! :)
I think their gonna turn out as an awesome group.
