Get the nail clippers out quick. Rising British girl troop The Saturdays have made an unprovoked attack on pop giants, the Pussycat Dolls.

The girlband, who are largely touted as the successors to Girls Aloud, hit out at the US superstars insisting they are nothing more than a troop of dancers.

Taunting the girls over their rows surrounding lead singer Nicole Scherzinger's hogging of the vocals, Irish Saturday Una Healy, 28, said: 'We're not a dance group like the Pussycat Dolls - only one or two of them can sing.'

Bandmate Vanessa White, 19, then stepped up the assault during their BBC Switch gig to insist the British group are the real deal.

'We've always been fighting since we started the group to prove that we're not just a bunch of pretty girls who dance around.'

The girls swiped their talons as they missed out again on a first UK number one, when their new single Forever Is Over coming just short of top slot at No.2 recently.

Meanwhile Scherzinger's troop boast two chart toppers this side of the pond.

Eh, not necessarily an attack. I think everyone knows that. Surely someone (*cough*Melody*cough*) will respond, though.

It's hard to know how it wad said, might look for it on YouTube, also, frankies not the greatest singer. I hope melody does respond!! Her voice crushes all the Saturdays voices put together!!

Melody has an annoying squeeling voice. But, I hate I dislike the Saturdays so

I partly agree with the squeeling part

I doubt the Pussycat Dolls are going to care about what a British girl band think of them. I think they have more trouble trying to keep their band together than to care what they think.

This random girl group with one hit what a JOKE.

With 5 hit singles and a platinum UK album.

And Una tweeted saying that what they said was "only one or two DO sing" not "can sing."

^ Which is the truth. You only hear Nicole sing, and on an occasion Melody. Oh well, Kimberly's now judging a new dance competition here in the UK.

Meh. They won't be able to achieve what PCD did. If they try, they will probably break-up in the process.

Without Vanessa, they are not really good.

LMAO @ at this being an attack. They just said only two people sing in PCD, which is true.

& Rochelle.

I agree!

Well they're not lying so..... and I think Melody is included in the 1 or 2.

Gold star for you

Thank you! I like to educate people like you who may be below me on the intellectual scale... bless your soul

I hate The Saturdays. Nobody in America even knows who they are, so whatever.
