Kimberley then offered her bandmate assistance, jumping in to say: 'I mean it has been an everchanging lineup and this is what it looks like now in 2026. You never know what comes next.

While on X, formerly Twitter, another fan said: 'That wasn’t an answer… that was a PR emergency response';
'She was trying to choose her words carefully. That moment was a bit awkward. Maybe she didn’t expect that question. It’s not always easy talking about the past';
'Love how real and heartfelt you got the sisterhood still shines through'; 'They caught her off guard, she didn't know how to respond'.
The Pussycat Dolls first broke up in 2010, with Kimberly saying at the time she was 'unable to grow creatively' in the girl band.

'I do want to clarify a few things. I was never planning to return under the current circumstances, and unfortunately I’m still unable to dance due to ongoing health issues. Because of that, the recent news was difficult for me.
'When rumors about the three girls began circulating, I did try to reach out privately for several months.
'I didn’t receive a response until the night before the announcement, which meant I didn’t have much time to prepare for the reaction that followed online.
'As many of you know, I’ve been grieving the loss of my mom while also dealing with a neurological condition where stress can trigger severe physical pain, so the intensity of the online response has been challenging.'
