Pussycat Dolls singer Carmit Bachar has reportedly quit the group.

The sexy girl band member has walked out on the hitmakers to "pursue other projects", according to celebrity blogger Perez Hilton.

Sources insist the band will not be replacing Bachar - who was the only original member of the Los Angeles burlesque dance troupe from which the group was formed - and will carry on as a five-piece.

A representative for the Pussycat Dolls has yet to comment on the reports.
