  • Nicole Scherzinger: Returning As a Judge on ‘The X-Factor’?

    Nicole Scherzinger may return to the X-Factor.

    The British public grew fond of Scherzinger during her 2012 and 2013 judging stint on The X-Factor. Two of her contestants even made it to the finals in 2012. In 2014, Scherzinger left the series to devote her energy to completing and promoting her second solo album, Big Fat Liar.

    Recently she returned to the X-Factor stage to sing “Run.” The performance had a few technical difficulties, but once again won her praise from the audience. Big Fat Liar made its UK debut in October. The album is set for an early 2015 release in the US. Besides promoting Big Fat Liar, Scherzinger will appear in Cats on the West End from December to February.

    Her personal life seems just as active as her professional one. The “Run” singer got emotional yesterday while watching her long-time boyfriend, Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, win the world championship in Abu Dhabi. Photographers captured Scherzinger excitedly kissing his helmet after the victory.

    Hamilton was also congratulated by Prince Harry, who said, “Lewis thank you very, very much for not making the British public sweat…You are an absolute legend. Well done mate.”

    Looks like Scherzinger will be very busy in 2015, and Simon Cowell hopes to make her busier.

    Mirror reports that Cowell wants to leave the UK version of X-Factor to relaunch the American one. The US version of the singing competition got canceled in February due to low ratings. Mirror spoke to a source for more details on the possible reunion of Fox and Cowell. According to Mirror, “Staff have put together a proposal, which has been very well recieved.” The source also said that everyone wants to make a relaunching of X-Factor work.

    If Cowell returns to X-Factor in the US, he needs a replacement for the UK version. Scherzinger is a top choice as a replacement. “Nicole is among his first choices. He is a huge fan and would have loved to have had her back on the UK show this series but it just wasn’t possible with Cheryl returning,” revealed Mirror.

  • Nicole Scherzinger: ‘X-Factor’ Performance Suffers a Power Failure

    Sunday night Nicole Scherzinger returned to the X-Factor UK.

    Scherzinger spent one year as a judge on the American version before taking a two year gig on the UK one. She left the show to focus on her music and recording her latest album.

    Scherzinger’s unique brand of advice and personality made her popular among the British public. In 2012, Scherzinger had two of her contestants in the finals, James Arthur and Jahmene Douglas. Arthur took home the crown.

    The former Pussycat Doll went on stage Sunday to sing her recently released song “Run.” The performance was stripped down with no effects and just Scherzinger’s voice and an accompanying piano.

    On The X-Factor spin-off show, Xtra Factor, Scherzinger revealed that she didn’t want her performance completely without production theatrics. The stage suffered a power failure. Her performance was supposed to have lasers behind her, but couldn’t due to the power outage. She settled for a few moving background lights.

    Despite the blunder, many X-Factor viewers were completely impressed by the performance.

    A couple days prior to it, Scherzinger released the official video for “Run”.

    The singer moves throughout various rooms in a mansion as she emotionally reacts to the lyrics of the song. In “Run”, Scherzinger warns other girls from dating her ex, to spare them the heartache. The emotional song is the newest release from her second solo album, Big Fat Liar, which became available in the UK on October 17. It scheduled for an early 2015 release in the US.

    Next month, Scherzinger begins performing in Cats at the West End. If she performs just as emotional in Cats as she does singing run, it’ll be show-stopping.

  • Nicole Scherzinger: How Her New Album, ‘Big Fat Lie,’ Helped Her Overcome Her Battle With Bulimia

    Nicole Scherzinger revealed in 2012 that she had overcome an eight-year battle with bulimia.

    She recently shared more details on how she overcame the devastating eating disorder. And not surprisingly, she found comfort and new-found self-esteem through her music.

    The former 36-year-old X Factor judge said that writing her new album, Big Fat Lie, was like “therapy.”

    “It’s a very personal album to me,” she told the Evening Standard. “It’s a transitional album, and it’s very honest and authentic.”

    Scherzinger also shared more details on her eating disorder, which she first revealed in a candid 2012 interview. For eight years, the singer said she felt like “I wasn’t enough, that I wasn’t pretty, that I was fat, and that I wasn’t worthy of more.”

    Much has changed over the past few years for the former Pussycat Dolls singer.

    “I’m in a different place in my life now,” she says. “I feel a bit more confident and comfortable in my own skin to be able to talk about things that I hadn’t talked about before.”

    Scherzinger said she feels a world of relief after taking the time to write about the truth of her past in her album.

    “It feels good to be truthful, because not everyone’s perfect,” she says. “Everyone always has these pre-conceived notions that you’re glamorous, you don’t have any problems, you don’t have any issues, and we all battle with our own issues.”

    The singer says she hopes fans will be able to relate to the difficult issues she addresses in songs on the album.

    “I’m addressing some issues and things I’ve battled with in my life in the album and hopefully people can feel like they can relate to it,” she said.

  • Nicole Scherzinger Reportedly Inking $4.5 Million Record Deal, Torn Over X-Factor Future

    Former Pussycat Dolls’ singer Nicole Scherzinger has definitely gotten off to a good start for the new year.

    According to NBC News, Scherzinger has reportedly landed an impressive $4.5 million recording contract with Sony Records.

    The Sun reports that the brunette is actually in the final stages of the contract negotiations needed to effectively secure the deal.

    While the 35-year-old singer has yet to confirm or deny the claims, she did take to Twitter and Instagram with an evasive message that insinuates her anticipation for fresh opportunities to come in the new year.

    The X-Factor: UK Edition judge also posted a breath-taking Instagram picture, with an inspirational message that also left fans to wonder whether it was relative to landing her new record deal.

    The caption for the picture read, “2014! Here’s to new beginnings, a new road, new path, to a #NEW year! #NeverGiveUp on what ur dreams & what ur meant to do & be!”

    While Scherzinger appears to be quite elated over her latest feat, it appears she’s still torn over how her future on X-Factor will unfold. In addition to her new record deal, the Killer Love singer is also said to have a ‘number of lucrative endorsement deals’ lined up for 2014.

    However, Independent reports that the singer is ‘conflicted about career pursuits’. The Sun also stated that Scherzinger still doesn’t know whether or not she’ll return to X-Factor. An insider close to Scherzinger shared some of the details.

    “She’s torn between the two — she loves the show and loves working on it but is conflicted,” the insider said.

    “She is taking time out at home with her family to decide what move is best to make. Nicole was the most popular member of the X Factor panel this year and is the real winner in terms of bank-ability,” the insider detailed.

    The insider concluded with Scherzinger’s recording contract news. “She is set to sign with Sony and can’t wait to get back to her music, which took a back seat during X Factor.”
