'''''PCD''''' is the debut [[studio album]] by American [[girl group]] [[the Pussycat Dolls]], released on September 12, 2005, by [[Interscope Geffen A&M Records|A&M Records]].<!--A&M has been defunct since 1999; the name A&M only exists today as brand of Interscope, not the original company itself.--> In 1995, the Pussycat Dolls were created as a [[burlesque]] troupe by choreographer [[Robin Antin]]. After attracting media attention, Antin struck a joint venture with Interscope Records to develop the Pussycat Dolls into a brand, with [[Jimmy Iovine]] assigning the project to [[Ron Fair]]. As one of the [[executive producer]]s Fair produced the majority of the album and collaborated with producers like [[Kwamé]], [[Polow da Don]] and [[Rich Harrison]]. The music style of ''PCD'' was described as [[Pop music|pop]]/[[Contemporary R&B|R&B]] and [[Urban contemporary|urban]] [[dance-pop]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.ign.com/articles/2005/09/14/the-pussycat-dolls-pcd|title=The Pussycat Dolls - PCD|author=Spence D.|website=[[IGN]]|date=19 May 2012|accessdate=31 August 2021}}</ref><ref name="Allmusic"/> Lyrically the album incorporates sexual innuendo and explores the themes of feminism and romance. It features guest vocals from rappers [[Busta Rhymes]], [[Timbaland]] and [[will.i.am]].
''PCD'' received mixed reviews from [[Music journalism|contemporary music critics]] who were favorable towards the selection of dance-pop songs but criticized the album's ballads and [[Cover version|covers]], feeling it contradicted the group's sexual image. ''PCD'' exceeded [[Music industry|industry]] expectations and became a commercial success, reaching the summit in New Zealand and peaking in the top-ten in Australia, Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland. In the United States, it peaked at number five on the [[Billboard 200|''Billboard'' 200]] selling nearly three million copies and currently stands as fourth best-selling album by a girl group in the United Kingdom (with sales of 1.3 million copies) where it reached number eight on the [[UK Albums Chart]].
The first four singles from ''PCD''—"[[Don't Cha]]", "[[Stickwitu]]", "[[Beep (The Pussycat Dolls song)|Beep]]" and "[[Buttons (The Pussycat Dolls song)|Buttons]]"—were commercially successful topping the charts in various countries including New Zealand where all four of them reached atop the [[New Zealand Singles Chart|singles chart]]. Subsequent singles, "[[I Don't Need a Man]]" and "[[Wait a Minute (The Pussycat Dolls song)|Wait a Minute]]", were less successful. Promotion includes radio appearances, print interviews, and live performances of its songs in various television shows such as the [[2005 MTV Europe Music Awards]] and the [[2006 American Music Awards|American Music Awards of 2006]]. In conjunction with these appearances, the Pussycat Dolls extensively toured the album in a combination of headlining and supporting shows until 2007.
==Background and recording==
The Pussycat Dolls were created by choreographer [[Robin Antin]] and her roommate [[Christina Applegate]] in 1993 after inviting several dancers to explore Antin's idea of classic [[Las Vegas]]-style [[burlesque]] and give it a more contemporary spin.<ref name="The Cat's Meow">{{cite news|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/2006/04/21/the-cats-meow-give-the-dolls-their-due/5f4c7f2e-99bc-469a-b58b-931fd5796abf/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200725233221/https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/2006/04/21/the-cats-meow-give-the-dolls-their-due/5f4c7f2e-99bc-469a-b58b-931fd5796abf/|title=The Cat's Meow: Give the Dolls Their Due|last=Harrington|first=Richard|archive-date=July 25, 2020|date=April 21, 2006|newspaper=[[The Washington Post]]|access-date=July 25, 2020}}</ref> In 1995, the group began performing every Thursday at Johnny Depp's Los Angeles club, the Viper Room.

In his consumer guide for ''[[MSN Music]]'', [[Robert Christgau]] gave the album a "one-star honorable mention" indicating "a worthy effort consumers attuned to its overriding aesthetic or individual vision may well like". Christgau selected "Beep" and "Wait a Minute" as highlights commenting that the group is "sexier than your average prefab sexpots, but no fabber".<ref name="RC"/> [[AllMusic]] of [[Stephen Thomas Erlewine]] provided a favorable review, rating it three stars out of five. Erlewine opined that the great thing about the album are the producers and songwriters who are willing to play with the group's "hyper-sexual image, creating a sleek, sexy sound ideal for both nightclubs and strip joints". However he observed the album's ballads "[undercut] the joyous carnal celebration" of dance songs that are not "quite enough to make this [album] the camp classic".<ref name="Allmusic"/> While ''Slant Magazine's'' Sal Cinquemani deemed group's image as "cartoonish", he was surprised that ''PCD's'' content wasn't filled with filler. He further noted that if the Pussycat Dolls would want to make a mark in pop music, they should avoid [[Diane Warren]].<ref name="Slant Magazine"/>
Writing for the ''[[USA Today]]'', Elysa Gardner acknowledged that "lead singer Nicole Scherzinger and at least a couple of her fellow Dolls have supple voices" despite their superficiality and the song's "insipid lyrics".<ref name="USAToday"/> Raymond Fiore of ''[[Entertainment Weekly]]'' also noted the Pussycat Dolls' flexible vocals, but felt the songs from A-list producers cannot "arouse her interest for a whole 45 minutes.<ref name="EW">{{cite magazine|url=https://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,1102736,00.html|title=The Pussycat Dolls Review|last=Fiore|first=Raymond|date=September 9, 2005|magazine=[[Entertainment Weekly]]|access-date=September 5, 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140810033432/http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,1102736,00.html|archive-date=August 10, 2014}}</ref> A reviewer of ''[[The Ledger]]'' wrote that the album is "essentially a solo release" from Scherzinger while noting songs like "Right Now" "make it clear that she really needs to keep around those dancing, singing/not-singing gals."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.theledger.com/news/20051007/mccheadsound-bitesmcchead|title=Sound Bites|date=October 7, 2005|work=[[The Ledger]]|access-date=October 17, 2017|archive-date=October 17, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171017095340/http://www.theledger.com/news/20051007/mccheadsound-bitesmcchead|url-status=live}}</ref> ''musicOMH's'' John Murphy deemed that in ''PCD'' there is a "half-decent album struggling to get out here, but it's rather drowned by the image and 'brand opportunities'".<ref name="musicOMH"/>

Lisa Haines of the [[BBC]] lambasted the musical style of the covers noting them as "forgetful".<ref name="BBC">{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/5v9x/|title=Music - Review of Pussycat Dolls - PCD|last=Haines|first=Lisa|publisher=[[BBC]]|access-date=September 5, 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131221225221/https://www.bbc.co.uk/music/reviews/5v9x/|archive-date=December 21, 2013}}</ref> Darryl Sterdan of ''Jam!'' called the group "glorified strippers" and mocked them for not writing any of the songs apart from Scherzinger having "token songwriting credits". He went on to describe the covers as "embarrassing" and the ballads as "overcooked".<ref name="Jam"/> Spence D. of IGN observed that the album's lowest points come from album's ballads.<ref name="IGN"/>

The album managed to remain within the top 50 for 45 weeks due to the strength of its first four singles, earning them a reputation among the century's few breakout success. Geoff Mayfield, former analyst and director of ''Billboard'' charts, commented that this type of success does not happen often. "It's unusual for any act to get as many as four hits off an album anymore. For much of this decade, it's been a real challenge to get a third or even a second hit.
