Anyone who hasn't heard of Nicole Scherzinger really needs to get out more. I guess it's a generational thing .

Anyone who hasn't heard of Nicole Scherzinger really needs to get out more. My husband and I had never heard of her. My parents had never heard of her. My 3 children in their mid to late 20s had never heard of her and they definitely got out a lot at Uni! I’m confident that if I were to stand on the local high street with a photo of her that very few people could name her. I’m also confident that a very high percentage would recognise the Beatles! I can’t recall many children at school ever mentioning the Pussycat Dolls as one of their favourite groups either. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare P&O SUE Posted March 21, 2023 #58 Share Posted March 21, 2023 I watched it on YouTube a few days later and there were no dodgy subtitles ! I cringed at good old Paul Ludlow and lost interest at the cookery. I enjoyed both Olly Murrs and Nicole’s sets, at least they can sing live! I said to hubby ‘I wonder if she’s allowed to do a Pussycat Dolls song’ - and she did! I enjoyed seeing all that blue sky and sea - not jealous at all! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m 58 and know who she is and have danced to her most famous song many a time - but then I worked in a Bank at the time and we had many good parties! ☺️ EDIT I’ve just checked and the song came out in 2005.

Red Ray Posted March 21, 2023 #61 Share Posted March 21, 2023 If you want to do pointless comparisons I'm 64 and work for a small legal firm. There are only 8 employees ranging in age from 39 to 87 - all bar the 87 year old have heard of Nicole Scherzinger. Anyway that's my last word on this fascinating subject and I'm sure you don't want to waste any more time on it. Dontcha? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Presto2 Posted March 25, 2023 #63 Share Posted March 25, 2023 I had never heard of her when she joined the X Factor / Britain's Got Talent --- can't remember which one as we don't watch either anymore. I can see that if you don't watch whichever show it was, then you may not have heard of her at all. I think that she has a decent voice and I think she is good 'musical theatre' singer. The performance at the naming ceremony and those photos cheapen her though and whoever came up with the idea for both needs sacking. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
