Nicole recently posted a poignant throwback clip sharing her wishes to become a theatre star – 16 years before going on to have a successful Broadway stint.

The former Pussycat Dolls singer could be seen filming the music video for her band’s hit When I Grow Up – across the road from the Broadway theatres in New York back in 2008. 

Looking fresh-faced she says in the clip: ‘It’s so crazy because growing up I thought I’d be doing that, that I’d be on that side of the street not on this side of the street.

‘But one day I’ll make it back home to the stage again, I miss it…’

The video then showed snippets of her on stage in Sunset Boulevard and getting ready behind the scenes – illustrating how she had made it.

She penned in the caption: ‘BTS footage of PCD’s ‘When I Grow Up’ music video — 16 years later… I made it back home. @sunsetblvdmusical.’

Nicole portrays fading star Norma Desmond in the Broadway musical – who dreams of making her comeback and enlists the help of a struggling screenwriter.

It’s based on the 1950 film of the same name and first opened on London’s West End in 1993 starring Patti Lupone as Norma Desmond, with Glenn Close starring in the Broadway run in 1994.

Close also returned for the West End revival in 2016 and the Broadway revival in 2017, though Scherzinger starred in the 2023 West End revival.

She took home the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress in a Musical, and following a successful preview run – taking in $1 million in the first week – the show opened in earnest in October at the St. James Theatre.

Nicole has received numerous standing ovations throughout her Broadway debut so far, including one, according to People, that lasted a whopping six minutes. 

Last year, it was reported that theatre bosses hired award-winning movement director Ingrid Mackinnon to help prepare Nicole for her intimate scenes with her co-star Tom Francis, according to The Sun.
