Kimberly Wyatt (born February 4, 1982) is an American dancer, singer, television personality, and actress. Born in Warrensburg, Missouri she began dancing at the age of seven. She rose to prominence as a member of the Pussycat Dolls, one of the world's best-selling girl groups of all time, that transitioned into a mainstream pop girl group and released the albums PCD (2005) and Doll Domination (2008). As part of the group, she won two MTV Video Music Awards and received a Grammy Award nomination.

Early life

Kimberly Wyatt was born on February 4, 1982, in Warrensburg, Missouri.[1][2] Her father was truck driver and her mother was his secretary.[3] In June 2020, Wyatt revealed that she grew up in a racist household and has discontinued her relationship with her parents as she feels "[they] are so fundamentally different."[4]

Inspired by Olympic athletics such as figure skating and gymnastics, Wyatt began doing gymnastics at the age of seven. As she progresses, she leaned more into dance training in genres like ballet, tap and jazz.[5] She began competing regionally, winning Miss Dance in America which influenced her to pursue a career in dance.[6] At the age 14 she earned scholarships and during a summer she trained in New York's Joffrey Ballet and Broadway Dance Center.[5][6] After high school, she got her first job as a dancer and singer on cruise ships for the Royal Caribbean International and went on to work with them for a year.[6] In hopes to work as a dancer in media, she moved to Los Angeles,[6][7] and in 2002, became one of the dancers on the comedy sketch show, Cedric the Entertainer Presents.[8]

Career

2003–2009: The Pussycat Dolls

In 2003, Wyatt auditioned for Nick Lachey and was spotted by choreographer Robin Antin, founder of the burlesque dance troupe the Pussycat Dolls. Antin took a liking into Wyatt and invited her to perform as part of the group.[citation needed] Meanwhile, Antin struck a joint venture with Interscope Geffen A&M Records's Jimmy Iovine to develop the Pussycat Dolls into a brand and create a separate recording group.[9] After a series of changes, the final line-up consisted of Wyatt, Carmit Bachar, Ashley Roberts, Nicole Scherzinger, Jessica Sutta, and Melody Thornton.[8]

After Scherzinger's failed solo stint, the Pussycat Dolls released their second and final studio album Doll Domination on September 19, 2008.[citation needed]

2010–2017: Solo career

In February 2010, Wyatt announced her departure from the the Pussycat Dolls citing "money and fame can't buy happiness" and pursued a solo career in the United Kingdom.[3][10] Her first work outside the group was a feature on Aggro Santos' debut single, "Candy".[11] Released in May 2010, the single reached the top five on the UK Singles Chart.[12]

Personal life

Beginning 2010, she established herself in the United Kingdom.[2] In 2011, she began a relationship with model Max Rogers, and they became engaged in September 2013. The couple married in a private ceremony in February 2014.[13] They have three children together; Willow, Maple, and Senna.[3] Wyatt revealed in October 2019 that she was sterilized after giving birth to her third child.[2] She currently resides in Surrey with Rogers and their children.[3]
