The Pussycat Dolls The Pussycat Dolls was an American girl group and dance ensemble, founded in Los Angeles, California, by choreographer Robin Antin in 1995 as a burlesque troupe. After attracting media attention, Antin negotiated a record deal with Interscope Geffen A&M Records in 2003 turning the group into a music franchise comprising Nicole Scherzinger, Carmit Bachar, Ashley Roberts, Jessica Sutta, Melody Thornton, Kaya Jones and Kimberly Wyatt. Overseen by Antin, Interscope and various partners, the group was transformed into a global image and commercial brand. The Pussycat Dolls achieved worldwide success with hit singles "Don't Cha", "Buttons", "Stickwitu", and their first album "PCD". However, despite their commercial success, the group was plagued by internal conflict due to the emphasis on Scherzinger, the group's lead vocalist, and the subordinate treatment of the other members. Bachar's departure from the group preceded the release of their second and final studio album "Doll Domination", which contains singles "When I Grow Up", "I Hate This Part" and "Jai Ho! (You Are My Destiny)".

Fem2Fem Fem2Fem was an American techno group who released two albums. With actress Lezlie Deane of "" as a member, Fem2Fem were the first and (so-far only) openly lesbian pop group to chart, although the band did contain straight women in addition to open homosexuals. But only some of the members of Fem2Fem were lesbians, and according to lead singer Michelle Crispin their intentions at the beginning were to promote a healthy view of sexuality with their music, regardless of sexual orientation. However, an appearance by the band in the December 1993 issue of "Playboy" magazine and the non-political nature of their sapphic lyrics led to criticism by some in the LGBT community that the band was trying to make a fast buck off playing to the prurient interests of a heterosexual male audience.
