While I‘ve been somewhat annoyed with the producers of Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious for some of the more obviously-manipulated elements of the show, I will concede they have a tough job as the show nears its conclusion.

Last week on Pussycat Dolls Present: Girlicious, the girls had to prove that they had star quality while gyrating in a music video on a swanky yacht.
