Parted ways with Pierce

On January 23, 2013, Cherri Bomb announced on their Facebook page that they had parted ways with Pierce. When asked the reasoning behind the departure, Miller commented on her Tumblr that it was due to “creative differences”, and that “we went our separate ways because we wanted to go in one direction and she wanted to go in another.” However, after Pierce’s departure was announced she took to her own Facebook page and clarified that she did not leave the band voluntarily. Pierce stated, “When I started Cherri Bomb five years ago, I envisioned something beautiful for this band. It’s unfortunate that I’m no longer part of it. Sadly, what has happened wasn’t my decision. I never imagined it ending up this way.” Pierce later reflected on the split in 2017 saying, that, with the members all being minors , their parents “made things so much more complicated. It just got to a point where we weren’t working together anymore. It was obvious that the families really wanted to go in a different direction than I did, so we parted ways. It worked out for the best. Now they’re doing what they want to do and so am I.”
