2009–Present: Tiffanie Anderson's departure and a new direction
Since early June, 2009, rumors have spread regarding Tiffanie Anderson’s place in Girlicious, and whether she was still currently a part of the group or not. Speculations of Anderson’s departure were sparked primarily by their MySpace account, when all photos of Anderson were completely removed from the site, along with the heading title of their MySpace page (which previously read "Nic, Nat, Tiff and Chrys, that's who the hell we are"), changed to “Nic, Nat, and Chrys, that's who the hell we are", removing Tiffanie’s alias from the quote altogether.[5] Furthermore sparking rumors of Anderson's displacement from Girlicious was a Twitter update from Robin Antin, which read: "Girlicious fans! Nic, Nat & Chrys r getting ready to record a new single, new video, & tour the world! We LOVE YOU 4 LOVING GIRLICIOUS!"
It was officially confirmed on June 11, 2009, via a YouTube video upload from Anderson’s official YouTube channel, that she is no longer a member of Girlicious.[7][8] In the video, Anderson cites changes with their new record label and sound, stating: "Robin Antin and the label were looking for a new direction for the group" ... "they were looking for the group to not be [urban] any longer". She also speaks of personal differences between some of the girls, saying the group wasn't seeing eye-to-eye on a lot of things: "a couple of the girls and I didn't have the same values or the same morals - causing a huge conflict in the end of it all."
Despite Anderson's announcement on YouTube regarding the issue, Robin Antin, nor their record label, have yet to officially announce Tiffanie's departure from the band, or comment on the situation. However, Antin has announced on several occasions via her Twitter account that the group is in the studio recording material for a brand new single, set to be released in the near future.
On Sunday, June 21, 2009 Girlicious (minus Anderson) appeared live at the 2009 MuchMusic Video Awards in Toronto, Canada as nominees and presenters. The girls won the award for the "Most Watched Video" for Like Me beating other artist such as Lady Gaga and Lil Wayne. Their video for Stupid Shit came in at second place. Robin Antin officially confirmed during a press conference for the MuchMusic Video Awards that Anderson was no longer part of the group.
