Some BBC Sport Relief viewers dubbed the antics of the women on stage as "porn", slamming the Pussycat Dolls for what was considered be some to be a raunchy performance almost a week after another controversial appearance on television sparked public outrage, prompting a number of complaints to the UK Office of Communications (Ofcom).

BBC responded to the complaints in an official statement on their website, saying that "We worked with the band to ensure their performance was suitable".
Earlier, the Pussycat Dolls performed at Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway, and viewers and netizens were abuzz, as Ofcom received dozens of complaints, according to reports.
