Former Pussycat Doll Melody Thornton shows off her dancer's body in tiny bikini as she frolics on Miami Beach
During her time as a Pussycat Doll, Melody Thornton was no stranger to wearing revealing outfits.
And so it's no wonder Melody Thornton would feel perfectly comfortable in a skimpy bikini.
The 28-year-old showed off her toned body in a flimsy two-piece as she soaked up the sun in Miami Beach, Florida on Wednesday.

Despite the fact that she is no longer a member of the girl band, Melody has clearly still kept fit since the group's demise.
Melody put her dancer's body on display in the bandeau bikini, which showcased her muscular physique.
She took a dip in the turquoise waters to cool off on the sizzling hot day, before showing her patriotism with an American flag towel as she lay down to tan.

Speaking about her position in the Pussycat Dolls, she told Vibe in 2010, 'I got into the group to sing. That was made very clear to me.
'But it became more and more apparent what was going on. Roles were being minimised and minimised, and then by the time it got on the show, it was very much like "Y'all play your part and this is what it is." It was tough because you don't want to s**t on your own opportunity.'
'Lawd a mercy!': Melody uploaded a picture of her with her arms in the sky with the idyllic beach scene as her backdrop
