Following the breakout success of The Pussycat Dolls’ debut single “Don’t Cha” in 2005, it seemed as though the sky was the limit for the band’s lead singer Nicole Scherzinger. However, despite multiple attempts to forge a solo career, Scherzinger has faced a series of disappointments when it comes to becoming a solo pop star.
While Scherzinger’s debut album “Her Name Is Nicole” was being touted as early as 2007, the record was never released. Entertainment Weekly reported that the album had been delayed on multiple occasions because several singles released by Scherzinger weren’t very successful. In 2011, she finally released a debut album titled “Killer Love” in the U.K., but a U.S. release was pushed back several times before being abandoned altogether. Her second studio album “Big Fat Lie” was released in 2014, but it failed to make any meaningful impact on the charts, leading to rumors that she’d been dropped by her record label.

In 2013, Scherzinger revealed in an interview with Notion (via NME) that she’d been offered the song “We Found Love,” which was subsequently released by Rihanna, but she’d passed on it. “I got the demo of that song and I was busy at the time,” she explained. She also noted that she turned down “Crazy,” which would go on to be recorded by Gnarls Barkley. However, in 2022, Scherzinger revealed that she was recording a new album, so fans can still have hope!
