Girlicious: It's a Foursome!
Excuse us, but was anyone else wanting to scream, shout and pull out their hair during the finale of Girlicious? It was down to the final five: Nichole, Natalie, Charlye, Tiffanie and Chrystina and the girls had one more opportunity to prove themselves. And only Charlye was sent home! Do you think the judges made the right decision when they kept the other four?
Let's rewind. First, the girls had to have a check-in with Ron Fair to discuss how well they would fit in with the group. Tiffanie and Nichole discussed how excited they are and how they're ready to work hard, which was expected and totally believable. Natalie made the comment that she feels she is the most compatible girl in the house which made us want to barf. How many episodes were there where she was fighting with everyone but Chrystina? The two of them have been on their own island throughout the competition.
Charlye made the mistake of being honest about her inability to get along with Chrystina and Natalie and said she'd go back to finish school if she didn't make it into the group.
When the girls were handed their final songs to showcase their individual talents, Chrystina complained about not knowing the Heart classic, "What About Love." Lucky for her, Natalie was there to push her through it. When Natalie needed some support after being confused as to why the judges were loving Tiffanie's attitude and performances, Chrystina was right there by her side.
When it was time to perform, the girls all looked very glamorous. Tiffanie killed "You Make Me Feel Like a Natural Woman;" it was the perfect song to give her and the judges agreed. While "Givin' Him Something He Can Feel" seemed like a little bit of a stretch for Nichole, she still did a great job with the song and managed to, once again, impress the judges. Natalie got Nelly Furtado's hit, "Say It Right", and what she lacked in vocals she made up for with sex appeal. When giving critiques, Lil' Kim finally made a valid point and said that due to Natalie's lack of vocal talent, she needs to make sure she gets out in front of the stage so as to not just blend into the background. Of course, her one shining moment in judging was overshadowed by the way her boobs were all up and out in our faces.
When Chrystina hit the stage, she closed her eyes throughout most of the song (which for most people I would assume would be a turnoff). The judges seemed to think that just because she didn't know the song originally but made it through to the end, this was the sign of something wonderful. The most overused adjective that has come out of the mouths of the judges, "proud," was used more than a few times before the episode came to a close.
Finally, it was time for a decision. The first name to be called as one of the members of Girlicious was Nichole, which we were very happy to hear. Tiffanie came next and this made us even more excited. The next name to be called was going to be an eliminated contestant, and it was Charlye who was told to hang up her boa and leave the room. *Peeve alert* Now, you would think that after all she has been through with the judges they would have at least given her a hug goodbye and told her that up until this point she had done a great job. There was no denying that of all the contestants, she was one of the girls with the most talent. But no, they just sent her on her way.
So, we were left with Natalie and Chrystina -- who out of the two least talented girls would make it into the trifecta that was supposed to be Girlicious? Apparently it was impossible to decide, so Robin and the crew let both of the girls stay and the threesome is now and forever a foursome. Hugs, tears, and disappointment from us here at the CW Source.
Will Natalie and Chrystina be able to make a group work with the other girls? They've segregated themselves and have been wrapped up in their sisterhood -- we wonder how that will affect Girlicious's dynamics.
We've got exclusive interviews with the girls who made it into the group along with Robin, Mikey "shiny lips" Minden, Ken Hicks, Ron Fair and Mark McGrath. Stay tuned for those and more Girlicious gossip as it happens.
What do you think of the outcome? Was there another way you hoped this would go? What did you think of the song and video they played of the girls at the very end?

OKk.. I have to say that Charlye is the only one who has the entire package to be a star. She is attaching, real, talented, pretty and brillant. When someone starts a career after a reality show, this person needs more than anyone all those qualities. Now, let's see the backlash of Girlicious! Robin, you're definitely not a visionnary! The videos and the songs are completely awful and it's so obvious that there is any hope for the band.

I disagree with the writer of this how can you say that Chrystina and Natalie isolated themselves? What show were you watching? Tiffanie and Charlye picked on everyone the whole show. They were the biggest haters in the house. Did you see how jealous they were when Chrystina won the dance challenge? Yes they were both talented but they had the worst attitudes on the show. If it was up to me Tiffanie wouldn't be in the group she can barely sing and she can't get along with people!

I dont agree with the final decisions that were made. I think that the group should have been nichole, tiffanie and charyle that would have been an awesome group, natalie and chrystina have no talent at all and im sure robin will find that out when they dont make it far in the business. I think that the videos hat were made sucked especially the second song they have out the video looks like someone jus got a video cam from home and started to film the four of them its sooooo pathetic. Robin shouldnt have even made another group they should jus find solo artist instead because anything can go wrong with a group of people who live in different areas and dont know eachother that much.Ron fair has money to waste he should jus give some to charity instead of making a stupid group.

I'm happy with Robin's decision but it would better if Charlye can work with other girls and also be in the group as five girls group ;p.
Cuz I love them all. They r all talented and have their own thing for the group! ^^ Anyway I wish the best for all of the girls who made it into the house. ^^

I'm so happy about the final decision for Girlcious. I especially wanted Natalie and Chrystina in. They are so gorgeous and completly fit in the group. Plus they are all getting along. The group is so hot and I think will go far, same as most people. Charlye was a cocky, self absorbed and jealous biotch. She definatly deserved to go home. Natalie and chrystina do so have talent, if they didnt have any at all they wouldnt have made it. I wanted Tiffanie and Nichole in too, they all make a superstar group. I love the Girlicious song "Like Me", it's so catchy and a total clubb joint, the video rocks too.

I did not agree with the decision... I believe Charlye was nervious close to the end, and kind of covered her real feeling about wanting to be a part of girlicious... She was definently one of the best performers this season. And I think she will be a big star one day... Girlicious should be Charlye, Tiffanie And Nicole. 3 girls as it originally was plained. I do not think Natalie or Chrystina should have made the group... I am very disappointed...
