Well it's official though I've known it to be true for a few months now. The music sensation Danity Kane is officially no more. The group initially self-destructed upon the dismissal of members Aubrey O'Day and Wanita 'D. Woods' Woodgette. Then there were rumors that Shannon Bex, another member, had left late in 2008. Today it was officially confirmed by member Dawn Richard who I'd pinpointed as the catalyst for the breaking up of one of my favorite girl groups since Destiny's Child.
Yes, Danity Kane was a manufactured R&B / Pop girl group. Yes, Sean 'Puffy / P.Diddy / Puff Daddy / Diddy' Combs rallied several young women together, made them dance, made them sing, cursed at them, made them sweat before finally settling on members Aubrey O'Day, Aundrea Fimbres, Shannon Bex, Wanita 'D. Woods' Woodgette, and Dawn Richard. I and many others watched them make their album on MTV's Making the Band and in October of 2006, they released their first album, eponymously named.
After two tours and two albums, the young ladies have all gone their separate ways and it was a bittersweet parting, especially when two girls were asked to pack their bags by Sean Combs. For someone who says that he has the Midas Touch, Sean Combs has ruined more careers. These five young women were extremely motivated and very talented. Hopefully they will all find success. With that said, Rest In Peace Danity Kane. We hardly knew ye.
