OMG!!!!: ITS OFFICIAL DANITY KANE IS NO MORE

SO IN A STATEMENT RELASED BY DAWN RICHARDS JAN 27 2009 ITS OFFICIAL THAT THE BAD BOY RECODING GROUP HAS SPLIT UP

SOME OF YOU MAY REMEMBER THE LIVE SEASON FINALE OF MAKING THE BAND (THE GROUP TO THE RIGHT THAT NIGHT) THAT AIRED IN OCTOBER IN WHICH IT WAS SAID THAT AUBREY O'DAY AND D WOODS WERE OUT OF THE GROUP. (TRUST ME I DID AND WAS THROUGHLY PISSED AND SAD). AUBREY WAS BEING DISMISSED FOR HER BEHAVIOR AND HIGH SEX APPEAL WHICH HONESTLY WAS A HUGE FACTOR IN PEOPLE PAYING ATTENTION TO THE GROUP.

SEAN "DIDDY" COMBS HAD THESE WORDS DURING THE LIVE SECTION OF THE SHOW.

"I got love for Aubrey," he said. "I don't have any beef with her. I just want to work with the young lady that I signed, not the person that fame has made her."

AUBREY RESPONDED WITH THESE WORDS,

"I would rather be hated every damn day of my life for being real than loved for being something I'm not,"

COMB'S RESPONSE VIA SATELLITE INDICATED THAT O'DAY NEEDED TO HUMBLE HERSELF AND BASICALLY STOP BEING SUCH A DIVA. HE ALSO INDICATED AFTER THE SHOW THAT HE WOULD BE OPEN TO WORKING WITH WOODS AGAIN (WHO PLANS TO WORK WITH ANTOTHER GROUP THE GIRLS CLUB) AFTER SHE DISTANCED HERSELF FROM AUBREY.

BUT EVEN AFTER THERE WERE RUMORS THAT THE GROUP WAS GOING TO BE WORKING THINGS OUT AND IT WAS MERELY A STUNT TO GET RATINGS UP.

BUT APPARENTLY ITS VERY VERY VERY TRUE. AND NEXT SEASON'S EPISODE'S OF THE SHOW WILL START WITH AUDITIONS TO FIND REPLACEMENT MEMEBERS FOR O'DAY AND WOODS.

AS I STATED EARLIER BAND MEMBER DAWN RICHARDS WAS THE ONE WHO BROKE THE WORD TO THE PRESS A COUPLE DAYS AGO THAT THE SPLIT WAS OFFICIAL. EARLIER IN OCTOBER RICHARDS TOLD US WEEKLY THAT THE STRAW THAT BROKE THE CAMELS BACK ON THE SUBJECT OF AUBREY WAS HER COVER AND SPREAD FOR THE OCTOBER ISSUE OF COMPLEX MAGAZINE (ONE OF THE PIX IS TO THE RIGHT BY THE WAY) WHERE SHE APPEARED TOPPLESS AND ALSO SPOKE VERY OPENLY ABOUT HER SEXUALITY AND "X RATED" PERSONALITY.

"We had just did a signing with Dollhouse Teen, which is for 13, 14-year-old young girls... So we can't do that one day and then the next day do an obnoxious cover.... [Combs] wants the fans, and he says he can't do that if we can continue to go in the direction that we were going."-RICHARDS

IN HER INTERVIEW WITH MTV NEWS ON 01:27:09 RICHARDS STATED THAT COMBS HAD INVITED HERSELF, AND OTHER GROUP MEMEBERS AUDRINA FIMBRES AND SHANNON BEX BACK BUT ONLY HERSELF AND AUDRINA RETURNED (APPARENTLY IT WASN'T JUST FANS THAT WERE DISCONENT/HEARTENED BY THE SPLIT).

**ON A TOTAL SIDE BAR I DO WANT TO SAY THIS.... I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE THOSE WHO FEEL THAT DAWN AND Q FROM DAY 26'S RELATIONSHIP IS GOING TO HELP KEEP RATINGS GOING GREAT FOR THE SHOW AND PEOPLE INTERESTED IN DANITY KANE... BUT HONESTLY IT HAS NOTHING ON AUDREY'S HUGE PERSONALITY OR D WOODS SWAGGER.

YOU KNOW HONESTLY I HAVE TO SAY IT JUST LIKE THIS.... DANITY KANE ISN'T DANITY KANE WITHOUT D WOODS ATTITUDE AND SWAGGER AND IT CERTAINLY WON'T BE A POWERHOUSE GROUP OR A THREAT TO THE CHARTS WITH AUBREY GONE.

LETS JUST KEEP IT REAL... AUBREY WAS THE X-FACTOR IN THE GROUP THAT HAD PEOPLE WANTING TO BE CURIOUS AND GO OUT AND SEE THEM. SHE WAS THE SEX SYMBOL OF THE GROUP AND THE ONE THAT HAD FANS CHEERING FROM DAY ONE. THE GROUP, SHOW, AND MUSIC ARE GOING TO BE SUPER BORING WITHOUT HER AROUND.

WITH D WOODS GONE THE GROUP HAS NO REAL APPEAL OR URBAN APPEAL IN MY OPPINION. SHE WAS MADE THE GROUP DIFFERENT FROM THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS, DREAM (THE OLD BAD BOY GIRL GROUP), AND ANY OTHER GIRL GROUP. SHE WAS COOL AND JUST DOWN. I'M NOT EVEN INTERESTED IN THE GROUP WITHOUT HER EITHER.

IM MEAN ITS JUST SAD.... TO ME THE WHOLE THING IS NO DIFFERENT THEN WHAT BEYONCE WAS TO DESTINY'S CHILD.... IN A GROUP YOU ARE ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE ONE MEMEBER WHO SHINES ABOVE THE REST. ITS NO DIFFERENT THAN KELLY.... YOU'RE ALWAYS GOING TO HAVE ONE MEMEBER WHO KEEPS THE REAL AND STREET APPEAL... O'DAY AND WOODS WERE JUST THAT TO DANITY KANE.... EVERYBODY ELSE IS JUST A MICHELLE.
