"When I Grow Up" is a song by American girl group the Pussycat Dolls from their second studio album, Doll Domination (2008). It was released by Interscope Records on May 27, 2008, as the lead single from the album. "When I Grow Up" was their first single following the departure of the group's longest-standing member Carmit Bachar. It was first recorded for Nicole Scherzinger's planned solo project, Her Name Is Nicole, but after its postponement and Scheringer's return to the group, she felt that the song was better suited for the group. It was written by Theron Thomas, Timothy Thomas and Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, who also produced the song. It is an uptempo electropop song with elements of the 1996 song "He's Always There" by English rock band The Yardbirds. "When I Grow Up" speaks about the desire to be famous, and was described as being "autobiographical" by Scherzinger.

The single was received favorably by contemporary music critics, many of whom highlighted it as a stand-out track from Doll Domination. It peaked at number nine on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming the group's highest charting single since "Buttons" (2006). According to Nielsen Soundscan, the song has sold over two million digital copies in the United States, making the Pussycat Dolls Dolls the first female group in digital history to have three singles pass the two million mark in digital sales. The song reached the top-five in countries such as Australia, Canada, France, Ireland, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, and the top-ten in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Switzerland.

The song's accompanying music video premiered on June 13, 2008. Directed by Joseph Khan, it portrays the Pussycat Dolls in a traffic jam on Hollywood Boulevard. It was complimented for its dance breakdown, and was nominated in five categories at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, and went on to win Best Dance Video. The Pussycat Dolls performed the song on television shows including Jimmy Kimmel Live! and So You Think You Can Dance, as well several award shows, and throughout their Doll Domination Tour (2009).

[edit] Background

Scherzinger (pictured) had originally recorded "When I Grow Up" for her own solo album, but felt as if the song was more suitable to the Pussycat Dolls.[1]

Following the commercial success of PCD (2005), lead vocalist Nicole Scherzinger recorded guest vocals with a wide array of male vocalists, including Shaggy, Avant and P. Diddy.[2] The guest spots on the songs furthered Scherzinger's popularity, and she began work on her own solo album. The project, Her Name Is Nicole, was meant to show a more vulnerable side of Scherzinger, rather than the "strong and fearless" woman she was perceived to be in the Pussycat Dolls.[3] Scherzinger expressed that although people recognize her as being the lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, it didn't fulfill her musical aspirations. When asked what she intended to achieve with her solo career she commented: "Some people only have their glasses half full, but there was never a limit to mine."[4] While the recording process was underway for Her Name Is Nicole, production had also begun on the second Pussycat Dolls album, under the working title Double the Trouble.[5]

"For me it was what I wanted to do. I'm a relentless perfectionist and I realised that a lot of the songs from my record should be Pussycat Dolls songs including 'When I Grow Up'. Next year I want to put out my solo album and I think the two will be able to co-exist nicely together."

—Scherzinger on why she halted production of her solo album.[1]

Over the course of two years (2005–07), Scherzinger recorded almost 100 songs for Her Name Is Nicole, with production handled by the likes of will.i.am, Polow da Don, Timbaland, Akon and The Neptunes.[4] She stated that she enjoyed collaborating with many different artists, and that although she had been writing songs for over ten years, she felt as if she was at a different level while working with such A-list writers and producers.[4] Following the moderate success of Her Name Is Nicole's lead single "Baby Love", the complete lack of success with a string of promotional singles: "Whatever U Like", "Supervillian" and "Puakenikini", and push backs, Scherzinger decided to put the release of the on hold.[6] She then returned her focus back on the Pussycat Dolls, and recording commenced for their second studio album.[1]

"When I Grow Up" was one of several songs that were originally recorded by Scherzinger during the Her Name Is Nicole sessions, the others being "Happily Never After", "Who's Gonna Love You" and "I Hate This Part, that appears on Doll Domination.[1] Scherzinger cited that she felt as if the songs were more suited as a Pussycat Dolls song than her own.[1] "When I Grow Up" was written by Theron and Timothy Thomas, along with Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins, who also produced the song.[7] The Yardbirds' drummer Jim McCarty and bassist Paul Samwell-Smith both received co-writing credits for the song, for its sample of "He's Always There" (1966).[8] The song was recorded by Paul Foley, Mike "Handz" Donaldson and Roberto "Tito" Vazquez at 2nd Floor Studios in Orlando and Chalice Studios in Los Angeles, and was mixed by Spike Stent and Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins at Chalice Studios in Los Angeles.[8] "When I Grow Up" made its world premiere online on May 16, 2008,[9] and was issued as a digital download in North America on May 27.[10] It was later serviced to contemporary hit radio in the United States on June 1, 2008.[11] The release of "When I Grow Up" came after the departure of member Carmit Bachar. It was officially confirmed, after months of speculation, on March 4, 2008 that Bahar had left the group to follow "other performance interests". At the time of her departure, she had been the longest member of the group, joining in 1995 when they were a burlesque act.[12]

In August 2006 casting was announced for a new reality show entitled Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll.[13] Executively produced by the Pussycat Dolls founder Robin Antin, her brother Steven, record executive Jimmy Iovine, and television producers McG and Ken Mok, the goal of the show was add a seventh member to the group. The new member would have to be able to both sing and dance, and would join them in recording their second studio album and future tour endeavours.[14] Among thousands who auditioned, Anastacia McPherson, Melissa Smith, Brittany Diiorio, Melissa Reyes, Jaime Benjamin, Asia Nitollano, Sisely Treasure, Chelsea Korka and Mariela Arteaga were chosen as the show's nine semifinalists.

Airing on Tuesdays on The CW, The Search for the Next Doll lasted a total number of eight episodes, with its first airing on March 6, 2007. Throughout the trek the girls were mentored personally by Antin, and went through a judging panel made up of Antin, rapper Lil' Kim and record executive Ron Fair. Its finale on April 24 revealed Nitollano to be the winner of the competition. Following her winning, she joined the six other girls in a performance of the group's debut single "Don't Cha" (2005).

The absence of Nitollano from the Pussycat Dolls live performance at the Live Earth concert on July 7, 2007 sparked rumours that she had been fired from the group.[15] Later that same month, it was revealed that Nitollano had actually quit the group shorting after the finale of Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll aired to pursue a solo career.[15] Her departure from the group led reporters to believe that the show was ingenue, with The CW entertainment president Dawn Ostroff commenting:

I think our responsibility, first and foremost, is to put entertaining television on the air. Every show that you look at, you know, some of the American Idol winners go onto great fame, sometimes the winners aren't the ones that have the great fame, it's the runners-up that have the fame. There's no guarantee for how any of this will turn out. What the participants get is exposure. What the participants get is to genuinely go into an experience, and the experience is very pure. At the end of the day, you can't make anybody do anything, but you've given them an opportunity.[16]

"When I Grow Up" is an up-tempo, computer-tuned R&B and electropop song[18][19] that lasts four minutes and five seconds.[8] Built around "bouncy synth lines" and a "thudding" bassline,[19] the song features a heavy use of sirens, handclaps and pitch-shifted vocals.[17] Lead vocalist Nicole Scherzinger was cited as adopting Britney Spears' breathiness against the song's sirens, shouts and "pumping beat".[18] Jaime Gill from Yahoo Music UK described "When I Grow Up" as a "dark, dissonant club banger",[20] while Rudy Klapper from Sputnikmusic compared the song's composition to that of Basement Jaxx's 2003 track "Plug It In".[19] "When I Grow Up" contains a sample of the main riff of "He's Always There" by British rock band The Yardbirds, from their third studio album Roger the Engineer (1996).[8] The song's writers, Jim McCarty and Paul Samwell-Smith, were honored for their contributions to the song at the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP).[21]

According to the sheet music published by Sony/ATV Music Publishing, "When I Grow Up" is set in common time with a tempo of 120 beats per minute. It is composed in the key of E minor, with Scherzinger's vocal range spanning from low-note of E3 to the high-note of G5.[22] Lyrically, the song is centered around the desire to be famous when one grows up.[23] Using satirical and autobiographical lines, Scherzinger begins the song's first verse with: "Now I've got a confession / When I was young I wanted attention".[24][23] The "repetitive and catchy chorus" follows, where she sings the lines: "When I grow up / I wanna be famous / I wanna be a star / I wanna be in movies".[23][17] MTV News commented that the song contains a theme that is "getting plenty of traction these days – beware the high cost of fame."[17] Meanwhile, group member Melody Thornton said of the song's concept: "If you strive for higher and bigger things – along with that – comes hard work and dealing with a lot of stuff that you'd never assume you'd have to. So yeah, while the song is meant to be playful, it still does have that little warning twist to it".[25] Bill Lamb from About.com named "When I Grow Up" as a possible answer song to Pink's "Stupid Girls" (2006).[26]

Music critics were initially confused by the line "I wanna have groupies" in the chorus; mistaking the line as saying "I wanna have boobies".[23] American comedian Ellen DeGeneres also pointed this out when they performed the song on her talk show on September 23, 2008.[27]

[edit] Remixes

Eve (pictured, left) and Diddy (pictured, right) are amoung several rappers who recorded new vocals for remixes of "When I Grow Up".

A number of remixes were commissioned by Interscope Records to accompany the song. On July 23, 2008 a remix of "When I Grow Up" featuring a rap verse from American rapper Eve was released.[28] Later that same day, a second remix was released online.[29] Entitled the "Darkchild Remix", it features a entirely different beat than the original, with added vocals from American rappers Diddy, Lil Wayne and Fatman Scoop, as well as the song's producer Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins.[29][30] Elements of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" (1984) were heavily sampled throughout the remix, most noticeably in the song's introduction.[29] Lil Wayne's verse was later removed and replaced by a new verse by the song's composers, Rock City, due to issues with it being cleared in time for its commercial release as a b-side to "Whatcha Think About That", the second single from Doll Domination.[31] For unknown reasons, the remix was never released.

Additional "club" and "dub" remixes of "When I Grow Up" by DJs Dave Audé, Digital Dog, Dirty South and Ralphi Rosario, and the electronic band Wideboys were also released in a series of Compact Disc single and digital download releases.

[edit] Commercial performance

In the United States, the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number seventy-six on the issue dated June 14, 2008.[32] On its second week, the song sold 34,000 digital downloads, and ascended to number thirty-one.[33] In its fourth week, it reached its peak position of number nine, becoming Pussycat Dolls' highest charting single since "Buttons", which peaked at number three in 2006. The song topped the Hot Dance Club Play chart, the issue dated August 2, 2008.[34] The song has sold over 2.18 million digital downloads in the United States to date, according to Nielsen Soundscan, making the Dolls the first all-female group in digital history to have three singles—along with "Don't Cha" and "Buttons"—pass the two million mark in digital sales.[35] In Canada, the song debuted at number fifteen on the Canadian Hot 100.[36] On the chart dated September 6, 2008, "When I Grow Up" ascended and peaked at number three.[37]

In Australia, the song debuted at number forty-five, on June 22, 2008.[38] In its sixth week, the song peaked at number two and stayed there for three consecutive weeks.[39] "When I Grow Up" was certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) for shipments of 70,000 copies.[40] In New Zealand, the song debuted on the chart at number thirty-three.[41] It reached number five a few weeks later.[42] and was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ) for selling over 7,500 copies.[43] In the United Kingdom, "When I Grow Up" debuted and peaked at number three with sales of 29,688 on the UK Singles Chart.[44] On the Billboard European Hot 100 Singles the song debuted at number three, and also peaked at number nine in Germany.[45]

[edit] Critical response

"When I Grow Up" was received favorably by music critics. Bill Lamb from About.com listed "When I Grow Up" among the top tracks on Doll Domination, stating that the song "bursts out of the blocks", and that it was of no surprise that it "landed in the pop top 10 with ease".[46] On a separate review, Lamb gave the song three out of five stars. He noted that the "anonymous nature" of the group's vocals and "sexual lyrical tease" is starting to wear thin, stating: "This is more of the same, not a step forward". Lamb, however, did compliment the song as being a "catchy dance workout", and stated that the song carries their "usual sassiness" and "pounding dance beats".[26] Nick Levine from Digital Spy echoed Lamb's comments, noting that the song is a "bolshy, hyperactive pop stomper that works just as well in the aerobics class as it does on the dance-floor." He continued: "If they keep releasing singles as infectious as this, they could last longer than we'd think."[24]

August Brown from Los Angeles Times called the song as the "ideological centerpiece" of Doll Domination."[47] Sal Cinquemani from Slant Magazine described the song as a "catchy, full-throttle club track" and commented that it is "a perfectly concocted blend of camp and vamp for the famous burlesque troupe".[48] Steve Perkins from BBC Music awarded the song four out of five stars writing: "It's good to see that the dynamics of the group remain fundamentally unchanged" and that the song was a strong comeback.[23] He also noted that: "The whole song seems to be centred around the desire to be famous when you grow up, which while not my favourite of all messages to give out to The Kids". He ended his review writing "but in all fairness: who cares? It's hella catchy, and really, who's the bigger fool here – the Pussycat Dolls lyricist who wrote some vaguely nonsensical lyrics, or the reviewer who expected anything different?"[23]

Dan Cairns from The Times said that "if every song here were as batty and brilliant as When I Grow Up, Doll Domination would be one of the great pop records of 2008."[49] The Australian LGBT website, Samesame.com.au, praised the song. "From the few opening beats of When I Grow Up, it's plainly obvious that the girls have found a winning formula and they’ve stuck to it."[50] However, Nic Oliver from MusicOMH, in a review of Doll Domination, did not favor the song, saying that the song would embarrass Paris Hilton, but "sets the template for the rest of the album."[51]

[edit] Music video

The Pussycat Dolls stuck in the middle of a traffic jam.

The song's music video was shot from April 3 to April 4, 2008 on Hollywood Boulevard in Los Angeles, with director Joseph Khan.[52] American recording artist Britney Spears filmed a cameo appearance for the video on June 4 at the Warner Bros. lot in Los Angeles.[53] An on set "insider" said that Spears' scene was short, only consisting of her driving in a passing car and waving to the other girls.[54] On June 12, 2008 it was announced by MTV News that the cameo had been cut from the final video.[55] In an interview for Digital Spy Scherzinger was asked why Britney got cut from the video. She said: "I honestly am not so sure. You shoot a lot of things when you do a video. Some things stay in but other things don't make the cut and Britney just didn't make it. I've seen a little clip of her performance and she looked adorable so I really wish she was in it! Hopefully we'll work together in the future."[56] A short clip of the music video was released online on June 12, 2008; a day before the video's premiere on June 13, 2008 on MTV's FNMTV.[57][58][59]

In the video the Pussycat Dolls are shown sitting in a car in the middle of a traffic jam, where Scherzinger flashes a ring that says "famous". They sing the introduction of the song in the car before jumping out. When the chorus kicks in, the girls leave the car and stand on the roofs of the other cars and start dancing a routine. Then they walk down a street of Hollywood stars with bubbles floating all around them. As they walk down the street, they also stop to sing on a bench. As the second chorus starts, the Dolls climb scaffolding and begin to dance. During Scherzinger's solo, she stands in a small area with the Pussycat Dolls logo to the left and a mirror to the right, with lights flashing. The Dolls then dance in the breakdown section with the logo behind them, complete with Kimberly's signature move: standing oversplit, and the camera zooms out to reveal filming equipment and playback screens.

Nick Levine from Digital Spy, wrote that: "The Pussycat Dolls have a novel way of amusing themselves during traffic jams" and described the dance breakdown as "entertaining" and "nostalgic".[60] In Australia, the video was criticized for the video being too raunchy.[61] On August 17, 2008, it was announced that the video was nominated for Video of the Year, Best Dance Video, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography, and Best Choreography at the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards, having the most VMA nominations of that year.[62] The ceremony was held on September 7, 2008, and the video won the award for the Best Dancing.[63] The music video was the fifteenth-most streamed video on MTV.com in 2008.[64]

[edit] Live performances

"When I Grow Up" was debuted live on American talk show Jimmy Kimmel Live! on May 20, 2008.[65] On May 27, 2008 MTV News reported that the Pussycat Dolls were among many set to perform at the 2008 MTV Movie Awards on June 1, 2008.[66] Scherzinger talked about the performance saying: "This is a big deal for us. We just want to kill it. It's all about the Dolls right now, and we're coming strong."[17] The girls performed wearing spandex-and-leather getups,[67] while a backdrop was displayed in the background with images of flashbulbs, tabloid headlines and diamonds.[68] They were joined by America's Best Dance Crew winners the Jabbawockeez who descended from the ceiling wearing matching red t-shirts with stark-white masks covering their faces, and baseball caps perched at 45-degree angles atop their heads.[67] Of the performance, Geoff Boucher from the Los Angeles Times commented: "the Pussycat Dolls' set climaxed with a powerful pyro display that left celebs in the first few rows feeling a bit roasted".[69] MTV Buzzworthy described the performance as "sexy" and "sultry".[70] However, Tod Martens, in another review for the Los Angeles Times, criticized their performance. He commented: "[They appeared] onstage looking like they had escaped a taping for a sexed-up Jazzercise video."[69] He also wrote that Scherzinger never commanded the song except on "the cut's final seconds when she turned her vocals up to a growl" and noted JabbaWockeez's appearance as "annoy[ing]".[69]

"When I Grow Up" was also performed at So You Think You Can Dance on June 13, 2008.[71] On August 2, 2008 the Dolls performed the song and presented at the MTV Asia Awards 2008 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, along with "Buttons" (2005).[72] The group then performed the song at the Walmart Soundcheck, along with "I Hate This Part", "Takin' Over the World", "Buttons",= and "Don't Cha".[73] On November 21, they performed a medley of "I Hate This Part" and "When I Grow Up" at the 2008 American Music Awards. The performance included stripper poles, and the girls donned all-rubber outfits.[74] The Pussycat Dolls also performed "When I Grow Up" at the Doll Domination Tour (2009). Maureen Ellis of the Evening Times said that the "high-energy encore of 'Don't Cha' and 'When I Grow Up' ensured the Dolls reigned supreme."[75]
