I don't think anyone in England really knew who Ashley Roberts is. I don't think many people here know who she is either, but she was on I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here over in England and made the finals. During an interview with the host of the show, it came out that during her time in The Pussycat Dolls, no one was allowed to speak during interviews or for the group except Nicole Scherzinger. Everyone else was barred from speaking unless directly asked a question. The host said that was crazy and how did the group survive. Ashley then stated the obvious and said they didn't. It is interesting to note that Nicole has not really been able to do as much without the group as she did before.
