Asia is the Next Pussycat Doll | Pussycat Dolls End Their Search

Our winner, Asia (Credit: CW TV)

The Pussycat Dolls have searched for their next doll and found her. Asia took down the competition in a catty finale. Seriously! She and Melissa R. spent most of the time fighting. It seems that Asia felt that Mel R. being catty, and she didn’t mind telling her either. Melissa didn’t like being called out like that, especially in front of Robin. The two argued well into the night when they should’ve been sleeping or studying their lyrics.

There were a lot of f-bombs being dropped and not all from Miss Asia’s side. At one point, Melissa, who up ‘til this point seemed to be the perfect girl, told single-mom Asia that she should go home and “be with her baby.”

In the end, Asia got the last laugh. She killed her performance of “I Don’t Need A Man” and got to perform with her new band on TV. Asia earned her place in the spotlight, and … well, good for her.

Robin and crew are going to do this all over again—just how many new dolls does PCD need? Yes, you can get an application at CWTV.com.

Here’s a sexy medley featuring Asia, Melissa R., Melissa S. Chelsea and Anastacia. It’s one of my faves from the series:

ha i wanted mellisa.r to win. to bad tho buh asia is good too.

Posted 575 days ago by nader

i really was disappointed asia won, shes too thuged out to be in the pussycat dolls, melissa r should of won she has beauty and talent, and besides asia has a baby!!!!!there should be a redo ugh really upset

Posted 575 days ago by tricia

Asia deserved to win. What's wrong with having a baby and following a dream. Melissa would have had problems with her parents anyway. Asia is focused and ready for a serious career. Go Asia Ms Pussycat doll 2007 congrats.

i was upset that Asia won i really thought Melissa R should of won she has more talent than Asia i found. all through the shows Asia was really negative and she thought she was all it . Melissa R was my favorite.

Posted 575 days ago by Mimi

I was THRILLED that Asia won, she deserved it! She worked hard, went after her dream, and captured it. The fact that she is a young mother is a source of inspiration to other young moms with dreams. It lets them know to never give up. Go Asia, work it out!!!!

Posted 575 days ago by bobbi

go asia, go asia yea girl you deserved it !!! for you and your baby!!!!!! dont let anyone tell you anthing else, there is going to be alottttttt of haters but keep ya head up and brush dem haters off the best girl WON !!!!! ;)

Posted 575 days ago by jezzi

I am soooo glad asia won! When melissa r. told her she should "go home to her baby" I wanted to jump through the t.v. However, all in all Asia got the last laugh. I bet Melissa regrets that she made a fool of herself on national t.v. Sucks to be you Melissa R. !

Posted 575 days ago by cristina

Asia Won!!! Nooooooo!!! I didn't like Asia at all. I wonder how things will go with her baby... she found it hard doing the series let alone being on tour!

Posted 574 days ago by Moses

Chelsea was my favorite. Melissa R. was a the best all around, except her behavior revealed another side of her and this is one of the reasons I believe she wasn't chosen. If you notice, these competitions, like next top model choose girls will be good role models. The cattiness is good for ratings, probably encouraged by show producers, but in the end the outrageous, badly behaved don't win. Melissa was deliberately trying to throw off her competition, not with talent even. Remember this is a job. She knew Chelsea didn't have the dancing portion as needed for the heavy performing required to be a doll. They're not studio artists. I believe Robin didn't just pick Asia because they wanted a black doll, but because she wasn't going to sing lead and demonstrated team spirit as when she helped chelsea...be happy for her. The others have become household names and the future is bright.

All i have to say is ; Asia is the best she is sezy and she is lovely i adore seing her dance

Posted 574 days ago by nabi

asia you are the bomb, go asia. u are the best pussycat doll

Posted 573 days ago by deka

YAY Asia Won!!! She so deserves it..she followed her dreams and didn't let any1 put her down-that's a true pussycat doll!!1 YOU GO GIRL you did it all for you daughter and that's commitment. Congratulations! LOVE YA xoxo

Posted 571 days ago by Courtney

Asia is absolutely horrible. She has crazy facial expressions. She is way too combative, she should be a professional wrestler not a pussycat doll. She is way over the top and looks like a man.

Posted 570 days ago by Shaquina

I enjoyed watching the next pussycat doll..I have to be hounest and say i was not routing for Asia the entire time..but in the end i knew the best woman would win..and who cares if she had a baby..she went after her dream and she got it! MORE POWER TO HER! u go girl and do your thing!

Posted 568 days ago by Subina

I think that it's a shame that they are letting all those hatter get in the way of the decision that they made, by making Asia a pussycat doll. all of you people should be ashame of yourself, the rest of those girls were way too young for the demand that being a pussycat doll involves. and most of all imature if this young girl with the stage presence that she has all you are doing is setting Melissa and chelsy up to fall they have not experience life yet i bet the minute that they do someing you public don't like you are going to turn on them just like your have done with Asia.

Posted 567 days ago by sula

yay asia won iwas always wanting her to win she rox it was obvious that chelsea wasnt going to win and i thought that melissa r would hav won asia you rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted 567 days ago by stephanie

Im am very happy to see that Asia won. And i have been rooting for her from the beginning. But i must say that can be a little weird sometimes with other people by the way she responds to somethings. And how agressive she is by the way she handled chelsea with that head lock. Her mood swings are a little hard to understand. But i thinks she is very pretty and a great dancer. But i can only wonder how she will fit in with the dolls. But i wish her the best in her future.

Posted 566 days ago by Asia

Ew! I think melissa r. should've won! asia looks like an ape and a disgusting piece of crap =.= she has no talent and i hate her stupid spirit fingers...chelsea or melissa.r would've been good for the group! asia sucks ass go suck your baby...if you guys never noticed on the mirror. she didnt put her baby picture on! only her frieends! Look at it agian

she's fake

Posted 562 days ago by mohamed

Dude, I liked Melissa R. too, but...there's no need to resort to name-calling that's disgusting and a bit racist. I wasn't even sure if I should've posted your comment. Puh-lease! You can't say what kind of a mother Asia was, either. We only saw what the editors/producers of the show wanted us to see. She could've had her baby's pic near her bed. Your comments are cruel and mean-spirited and totally disrespectful to Asia.

Posted 561 days ago by Deanna Goodson

that mohammed guy should go suck on a lollipop..racist commenst shouldnt be allowed on here...a blk girl wins and all hells been let loose...she was the best ..the pussy cat dolls arenot exactly a singing group....its about the performance..and she got it..and she won..so go screw...but to be honest i was kinda rooting for melisa r

Posted 539 days ago by mark

ASIA, you should not have won cause you stink !!!!!! malissa r. can dance wayyy better than you and she doesn't need to shout when she sings .... i was sooo fricken pissed offf when asia won !!!! asia can go home to her baby and take care of it instead of come on the show and show off her nastinesss!! i heart you malissa r. you will go far !!!! <33333

Posted 562 days ago by kiley

Posted 524 days ago by melissa smith #1 fan

asia looks like a man, , so she will fit in with half of the PCDolls

Posted 562 days ago by tami

Wow! That's pretty rude. Asia's a pretty girl and she worked hard. The judges chose her so they feel she can fit in with PCD.

Posted 561 days ago by Deanna Goodson

I think that Melissa R was the better choice out of the 2. And producers should've thought about who was best for the group upon audience favourites not theirs because let's face it, if the fans don't like what they see, the group won't be successful. I love PCD but I hate the fact that Asia is now part of the group. Asia is a person who loves to dominate, be noticed and work as an individual which is the opposite to PCD. So once again judges thanks for ruining PCD!

Posted 558 days ago by Simone

I was extremely glad she won, I knew she would from the beginning because she's got all the right stuff - The talent, the looks, the attitude and the drive. She got what she deserved! She is just damnd fine!

Posted 557 days ago by Loki

Oooooooooooooooh no! Melissa R was so much better than Asia! Asia's stupid vibrating finger movement is just dilerius. Melissa R should have one, even at the end, everyone said that Robin made a HUGE mistake and she was the true PCD. Well I guess she's a winner anyway forhow far she has gone especially when shes so young, so....woo!

Posted 557 days ago by Harvie

Way to go Asia!!!!!!!!!!! They said you danced like a drag queen, but you nailed the show. You rock girllllllllllll. can wait to see you in a video with the group. pink-bunny

Posted 554 days ago by pink-bunny

im not that glad asia won.. i thought chelsea was good even tho she isnt very good at dancing.. but asia is good

Posted 553 days ago by emmalia

Asia should have not won she did not deserve it, she is really annoying. Chelsea had it all happening

Posted 553 days ago by Kat

Chelsea was better than Asia she should of won

Posted 552 days ago by natalie

I am very disapointed. Here in Brazil we are seeing the competition now.Most of people here thinks Chealse was the best option. She's got the voice and beauty.She would need to work hard on her dancing and then she would be perfect. Nothing that time wouldn't work it out...

Posted 341 days ago by Brazilian girl

Please Asia, go home and look after your baby! Melissa or Chelsea should be a next doll. I don't want to see Asia on TV. She makes me sick.

Posted 552 days ago by Marie

First off after reading half of all yall comments i was pretty upset to see that racism still exist, Asia is not black, she may have a darker skin tone then the other girls but that still makes her a humain. she worked as hard as the other girls did and as a mother she even worked harder and doesn't matter if she has a baby she the talents, the looks, and the attitude. being a pussycat doll is not just about being girly but also knows how to defend your self and for asia..that will not be a problem, mellisa was good , and chealsy was but at the end the best was choosen "Asia" so to all yall who have nothing better to do with yall who aint happy with it ....sleep by it..she's young and have baby but that did not stop her..it's a leson learn, and it just goes to show a lot of yall out there that following your dreams really do pay off...even with all the obstacles in life!!!!

Posted 532 days ago by Emma

I agree with 90% of the people on here who think Melissa R was the more dominate preformer. I also do beilive that you have to chase your dreams when u are a mom. (Being a younger mom myself) But i do think you should chase those dreams when ur children are old enough to understand. and her daughter probally isnt there yet. But robin made the choice lets see if she will regret it in the long run.

Posted 552 days ago by Amanda

wow ummm yes I wanted Melissa to win tooo! But oh wellz theres nothing we can do oso let go of it

Posted 551 days ago by Jasmine

i'm glad that she won she really worked hard for what she wanted she went after her dream no matter what.

Posted 551 days ago by rojina

i dont think asia deserved to win. She was so annoying, and she wasnt that good, melissa r rocked, asia wasnt that good of a singer. Melissa r was super! I still think she should have won! But asia is ok, so im still ok with her winning. (BUT MELISSA R. SHOULD HAVE WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Posted 551 days ago by Erika

Asia was a diva. And that has showed since she is no longer part of the PCD group. Melissa R was right in the sense that Aisa should be at home with her child. It was good that she went for her dream, but her dream also had to chance to accomodate her childs life as it is part of Asias life now too. Melissa R should have won on the fact of pure beauty and talent. She is young, mature enough to be in the group, but also be able to learn and adapt to that celebrity life style. But, I personally LOVED chelsea. I am forever a fan of her and her new music.

Posted 544 days ago by Kylie

all yall b****es need to shut up! asia is tha best and has been from tha start! and all yall sayin meliissa r. or chelsea should have won are crazy! tha two top best were asia and melissa s. till mel started actin like a b. face it haters- asia is tha best and she is my role model! so leave lil mama alone! plus you can't expect people not to achieve their dreams just because they have kids! Look @ fantasia people talked bout her to but shes still doin her thing. too all tha young mamas dont give up on your dreams!

Posted 544 days ago by Jessica

Man Ya'll are Trippin' I liked all of them that was in zee top 3 but clearly Melissa R. should of won like man Asia was good but shes got a child and she won't always have lots of good time for her child! They didn't pick Mel. R. because they say she look to much like Nicole! And it was just because of Asias song she won but anyways good for ya Asia! Good Luck in ur Career! Peace!

Posted 542 days ago by Courtney

omg. i cant believe asia won, melissa r. is so much better and chelsea is okay. damn that asia

Posted 543 days ago by WInona

I like Asie very much! She is the next PCD and she deserved it!!! Go Asia!!! Make you're baby proud!

Posted 539 days ago by Vera

Asia is sexy as hell, he body is beautifully fit and she still has a nice booty..ummm. She has the most grown up attitude and she doesn't take any BS for emotionally unstable daddy's girls who look too pre-pubescent to be in the group anyway. Asia stay strong and sexy..I love ya.

Posted 539 days ago by JAY

Im glad asia won because she was a talented person and besides she has more appeal than melissa r. ....

Posted 539 days ago by joemari

i think that both should have won and guys...really is is fair to tell Asia to go home to her baby? Its not her fault she had a kid so how bout u lay off her and i liked Melissa.R as well but still just stop judging her because she had a kid!

Posted 528 days ago by Serena

yes robin did it i love asia and am glad she won so she can prove that not because u are a mom your life is finish and i think chelsea is a b***h asia tried to help her and she dont even remember that. you go asia let mommy be proud and that little baby of yours love yea

Posted 519 days ago by SHANDEKA ALLEN #1 fan of asia

Asia's a b***h, she's never satisfied of anything and always gets to complain of something... She has a baby but, she is the less mature girl of the group, with melissa s. Well it's my opinion, but I don't think this is fair to Melissa R. have u seen asia's face without make up?? uhhhhh she's a freak! Chelsea or Melissa deserved to B a PCD more!

Posted 518 days ago by Chita

I was in shock to see Asia win! I think she is just horrible. Number 1? I don't even think I'd put her in the top ten. Her voice - not very good. And the finger thing drives me insane! The show really should have let the fans voted. I have a theory though... maybe they felt bad because she had a baby. My vote would have been for Melissa R. She had the whole package. She'd be a better Pussycat Doll than some of the girls already in the group.

Posted 516 days ago by Kerri

i think that mellisa.r should have won she was beautiful talented and a great dancer. Asia was too. melllisa i love her she was beautiful well i wished that you would've won mellisa.r but you didn't

Posted 510 days ago by jodie clemons

i think that chelsea should of won because she had a nice voice but she couldn't dance good.and i aslo wished that mellissa.r should of one because she had a nice voice to and she looked like the leader of the pussycat doll .and i still like you asia.and i like all of the three final girls for the compation.

Posted 510 days ago by kristina

you shouldreall think abot asia really hard cuase i love asia evrybody calles her donkey but i love all of u love 123 pcd

Posted 506 days ago by meaghan

Asia, you need to do something about your stupid fingers.I don't even kno HOW that helps your singing.It looks stupid!And you need to stop thinking you're a diva!You r NO higher than ANYONE in this world, so you need to chill out!

Posted 505 days ago by 91voldemort91

Asia, in that video, u're fingers kept moving, . You should have seen the way that judge was looking at you!And in case you didn't kno, i saw you when u made that weird face.What was that all about? U think u all that!

Posted 505 days ago by vv

It's good that Asia won over Melissa R. Melissa R. was too much like Nicola the lead of the PCD. They needed someone different. But Chelsea should have won. Her vocals are amazing. She'll get picked up any how. So I look forward to seeing her around. GO CHELSEA!!!!!! Congrats to Asia though.

Posted 398 days ago by Natalie

Chelsea should've won coz she was the nicest. Did no one else think Melissa R bullied Chelsea towards the end of the show. Uuuughhh I'm just glad Melissa R didn't win she annoyed me so much and she looked like a dog. Aisa is OK though. The whole show is so manufactured though and Aisa isn't even a pussycat doll so there was no point to the whole thing.

Posted 362 days ago by lalala

melissa.r should be the next pussycat doll!!!!!!!! pd:good look asia
