The Pussycat Dolls have come under fire for their latest "raunchy" TV performance on British television.
The recently-reformed band performed on the BBC's Sport Relief, which features a number of performances and sketches from famous faces. This is a biannual charity event created by Comic Relief in association with BBC Sport.

However, the Pussycat Dolls' performance did not go down well with all viewers of the show, with many taking to social media to criticize the performance for being too sexual.
One person tweeted: "What the hell have the pussycat dolls got on I thought I was watching a porn movie #SportsRelief2020."

However, the performance did have its fans, and others took to social media to praise the girl band for supporting the charity.
One wrote: "What is the fuss all about?? They look amazing. Nothing porn about this. I see 5 insanely talented and gorgeous women having fun on stage [sic]."

The backlash comes less than a month after the band was similarly slammed for their "singing strip show" on Australian morning TV.

It also comes three months after UK broadcaster ITV received over 400 complaints from disgruntled viewers following a Pussycat Dolls performance on the popular talent show, The X-Factor.

But regardless of the complaints, a whopping £40,540,355 ($49,845,582.68) was raised on the night, per the Guardian, and absolutely no one can complain about that!
