The Pussycat Dolls’ Melody Shows Up Late to Performance at the 2006 American Music Awards
During The Pussycat Dolls’ performance of “Buttons” at the 2006 American Music Awards, something went wrong. Melody Thornton showed up on stage late with only 40 seconds left in the song and ended up singing over Nicole Scherzinger’s vocals. In an interview in 2019, Thornton revealed she felt “worthless” while in the group, which might have affected the performance.
