Danity Kane Slide Show

It took him loads of awesomely bad reality footage and nearly four years time to do it, but World, believe it or not, Diddy's finally formed a band he's proud of. Meet the ladies of Danity Kane: A.K.A. Aubrey, Aundrea, D. Woods, Dawn, and Shannon. They're the lucky ones who made it through Diddy's tedious (and nationally broadcasted) entertainer boot camp, and after surviving scrutiny and criticism from some of the best in the biz, these ladies are ready to show off their stuff. On Making The Band 3 the girls gave viewers an inside look at the making of their self-titled debut and a chance to get to know them a little bit better. But, since reality TV is notoriously one-sided many of their fans still want to know if what they've seen is what they're really gonna get. After all, they did name their group after fellow member Dawn's show stopping, crowd-pleasing imaginary alter ego! (Kudos to Dawn for giving birth to the idea!) Their much-anticipated album drops August 22nd and fans predict they're the ones who'll put girl-bands back on the map. (R.I.P Destiny's Child.) Why did Diddy handpick these five girls? The answer's here. Meet the band!
