Nicole Sherzinger’s lawyer has fired back at Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin who filed a lawsuit last week claiming the singer is reneging on the group’s reunion tour.
On Monday (Sept. 6th), Sherzinger’s attorney Howard King told Page Six that Antin’s claims are “ludicrous and false” and alleged they “are a desperate attempt to divert blame for her own failures by trying to impose obligations on Nicole that simply do not exist.”
In a lawsuit filed on Friday (Sept. 3rd), the 43-year-old performer is alleged to have agreed to a reunion and a new business venture, Pussycat Dolls Worldwide, for 49% of the deal. After the tour was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the lawsuit claims Sherzinger refused to participate and demanded to renegotiate the terms of her contract.
King added that “Nicole has invested her own funds in excess of $150,000 in support of a potential PCD reunion that has now been made impossible by Robin’s actions.”
The lawyer says that Scherzinger hopes to back on the stage performing with the group one day, but “this will not happen under these circumstances.”
