Fans who made them wait an hour to see her perform at the Royal Albert Hall have made her a diva, according to Nicole Scherzinger.
An X Factor star has revealed that she has been left “devastated and horrified” after finding out that fans were left waiting an hour for her performance to start at a recent gig.
Fans who had reportedly paid up to £150 to see Nicole Scherzinger on stage at the Royal Albert Hall were fuming after she failed to arrive on time to start the show at 7.30pm.
According to reports, when Nicole, who is best known for her time in the Pussycat Dolls finally arrived on stage, she reportedly did not provide an apology or a reason for her late arrival. And this prompted many to leave the venue at the time of the interval.
Nicole, 47, sang six songs before starting the break. She continued to insist that her one-woman show was being “planned to perfection” in a statement to The Sun.
She also claimed to the publication that she had a conundrum about her timings, which made it impossible for her to know when she was actually late.
Nicole has since broken her silence about the allegations. She stated in the interview that she had not discovered that people had been sat there for so long until after I finished the interview.
She continued, “I was devastated and horrified because I was told I would be frustrated as well if I was told to wait so long.” I believe they were seated for, say, 7:30 or something, but I believed my show was scheduled to begin at 8 p.m.
She continued to explain to the publication, “I just want to thank everyone, thank everyone, because everyone kept coming in and was dancing with me at the end.” I appreciate their understanding and their patience for sticking it out with me.
The actress claims that she had trouble soundchecking all of her songs with an orchestra before she had previously worked with.
Taking to social media at the time, one fan fumed: “Nicole Scherzinger was very disrespectful to her audience who paid £140 each to see her. She didn’t even apologise for being an hour late starting. We left at 10pm because she talked the majority of the time and sang about lot less than her audience deserved. Such a shame because she was amazing in Sunset Boulevard but it would appear she’s rapidly turning into a diva. Disappointing!”
We had to leave before the end, but she is amazing, according to another user who said: “Such a DIVA, almost one hour late, no apology.
One performer, however, appeared to enjoy the performance among those who were left raging. Should have stayed until the very end, the fan said. She excelled. We don’t even know if Nicola (sic) was to blame for the lateness because she is so brilliant. Perhaps that was the reason it was being recorded. The conclusion was fantastic.
This comes after it was claimed that she was allegedly a target of complaints while performing in Sunset Boulevard by Andrew Lloyd Webber.
