Lady Gaga turned down the chance to join the Pussycat Dolls – because they weren’t “right” for her.

The New York-born singer – who reached number one in the UK and US with her debut single Just Dance – says pursuing a solo career was more important to her than joining the popular girl group.

She says, “I was writing tracks for them at the time but I had my vibe and my own style.

“Their style is not mine fashion-wise…it wasn’t right for me.”

Lady Gaga, real name, Joanne Stefani Germanotta, recently spoke of her determination not to become a one hit one wonder.

She said, “I don’t wanna be one song. I wanna be the next 25 years of pop music.

“But it’s really hard to measure that kind of ambition. That kind of blonde ambition is looked at with a raised brow, because most artists don’t have longevity today, especially in fun music that’s about underwear and pornography and money.”
