Former Pussycat Dolls member Jessica Sutta is sharing her theory as to why she was not asked to join the group’s upcoming reunion.
“I was a liability,” Sutta, 43, claimed on the Sunday, March 22, episode of “The Mavericks Approach” podcast. “I align with Bobby Kennedy, which is aligning with MAGA. Do I love what [President Donald] Trump is doing? Absolutely not. I do not believe in war. [But] we didn’t have a chance for the [vaccine] injured community to get help without him.”
Sutta has been an outspoken supporter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the current U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, since his 2024 presidential run. (Kennedy, 72,, initially ran for the highest office in the land as a Democrat, before dropping out of the race and endorsing then-Republican candidate Trump, 79.)
The singer, who said she is dealing with a neurological condition, says she connected with Kennedy over their shared medical beliefs.
“People are screaming at me, ‘You’re MAGA, you’re MAGA.’ Yeah, I am,” she said. “I triple down on it because I’m like, I’m so sick of people telling me who I should be.”
On March 12, The Pussycat Dolls announced their official return to the global stage with their new PCD Forever tour. While former members Nicole Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt would be part of the projects, others — like Sutta — were not included.
“None of us were called. None of us were told about anything. In fact, we were blindsided,” Sutta claimed, before revealing she did get a phone call from Scherzinger, 47.
“I don’t plan to call her back. I love Nicole,” she continued. “This is very bittersweet for me. I respect her as an artist. I even cried with joy when she won her Tony [for Sunset Boulevard] just recently.”
Us Weekly has reached out to The Pussycat Dolls’ reps for comment on Sutta’s podcast interview.
During an appearance on the Today show, Scherzinger, Wyatt, 44, and Roberts, 44, were asked about the decision to tour as a group of three, not six. Sutta, as well as original members Carmit Bachar and Melody Thornton, are not part of the tour, which kicks off in June.
“I mean, it has been an ever-changing lineup and you know, this is what it looks like now in 2026, and you never know what comes next,” Wyatt shared on Friday, March 20. “I think ultimately, we’ve got to protect our peace and when something like the Pussycat Dolls has so much history, we have ruptured in the past, and right now we are repairing, and we’re sort of on the same page with that.”
