Grammy-winning vocalist Kaya Jones is setting the record straight about her fans and speaking out against Pussycat Doll founder Robin Antin after being included in an article about Antin and another former Doll.
The Yahoo Entertainment Blast discussed the dissolution of a lawsuit between Antin and former Doll Nicole Scherzinger, which stemmed from Scherzinger's refusal to join a Pussycat Doll reunion tour. After a lengthy discussion of the legal battle, the article rehashed Jones' comments about the band resembling a prostitution ring and the abortions she endured during her tenure.
Jones says she's not sure why she was mentioned in the article, but disputes its claim that fans criticized her for getting "fat."(See: Yahoo Entertainment article)
"It wasn't the fans who called me fat; the fans always loved me. It was Robin," Jones said. "It was right after the abortion, as I was losing my child, in my darkest time, it wasn't the fans that called me fat, it was Robin."
Jones, now a gospel artist and pro-life advocate, has spoken publicly about the abortions she was pressured to undergo to remain in the group. Her first Christian album, "The Royal Collection," was released last July and has been submitted for Grammy consideration. Grammy nominees will be announced this Friday, in a star-studded livestream event that includes an appearance by Scherzinger.
