Nicole Scherzinger In Black Bikini Is 'Giving Warrior' In Hawaii

Singer Nicole Scherzinger is taking some time to soak up the sun amid her demanding Broadway run!

Although her time on the stage has earned her a Tony nomination, the former Pussycat Doll is still taking the time to share her adventures with her seven million followers on Instagram.

Nicole has earned a Tony nomination for playing Norma in “Sunset Blvd.,” and she seemed like she couldn't be happier to soak in the sunshine after playing eight shows a week! She shared a long carousel of photos that began with her showing off her toned abs as she stood barefoot on a beach in a black bikini top. A skirt was tied around her waist, showing off her lean legs as she extended one arm towards the water.

“Norma on vacay—no drama, just sunsets and rainbows…but the last pic is giving warrior Norma in her element,” she wrote in the caption next to several emojis. Many fans praised the snaps as “beautiful” and “amazing.”

“I saw you in Sunset Blvd. two weekends ago while visiting from Nashville and you were incredible!” one fan shared. “The whole cast- just perfection! Now, what I really want to know- your workout routine! You are looking happy and [fire emoji]!!!

Hot off the success of her first-ever Broadway run on “Sunset Blvd.,” the former Pussycat Doll told The Hollywood Reporter that she felt “overjoyed” and “grateful to be recognized” among such other talented artists.

“I feel like I am with the greats. I know that I’m in a category with true masters,” she explained. “There’s many performances that are well deserving of Tony nominations or even Tonys. It’s just such a difficult season because there are so many brilliantly talented people this season. So, to be alongside these names and be in this season, I’m very grateful.”

Her decision to join Broadway was actually sort of a full-circle moment for the singer. She told the publication that while they were shooting a music video for “When I Grow Up,” she looked across the street to see “Wicked” playing at the Pantages Theatre. At the time, she told herself that she would eventually find her way to that side of the stage.

“And it’s just I always knew, because I’m a musical theater girl at heart, I was so fortunate to go to a wonderful youth performing arts school growing up where I got educated and got to find my own tribe and my own fellow thespians, art lovers and creatives and connect with them,” she explained.

“I always knew that I would come back home because I loved the theater. But to make my Broadway debut and to work with my dear friend Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Sunset Boulevard musical, but doing Jamie Lloyd’s reinvention of it, I couldn’t imagine — this is bigger than what I dreamed of and what I prayed for. It’s bigger than that and what I worked for and asked for,” she added.

Nicole went on to say that she feels “very blessed for the many careers” that she has had over the years, which have included being a “The Masked Singer” judge for ten seasons. She has since been replaced by Rita Ora on the Fox reality show.

“ I feel like this is not only a reinvention but a rebirth for me. And I will have to say, I’ve been very blessed, I’ve worked very hard, and I’ve had a lot of beautiful things happen to me in my career, but this is the one thing that I’ve never been more proud of in my life,” Nicole said.

“This is the one thing that has truly changed my life. And I feel like we’re always becoming and we’re always evolving, but this really showed me what I’m made of and who I truly am and I get to share that, share all of my gifts and all of my talents and share all of me in my whole heart every night, now eight times a week,” she added.

Unfortunately, Nicole admitted that there have been no offers made to her at the moment, so she couldn’t discuss future projects. However, she did share that there has “been some talks of a few different roles and things that people have asked me about and would like me to be a part of but nothing formal.”

“And I think because the role is so demanding, to be honest with you, especially now doing eight shows a week, it’s just I have to be in the moment now more than ever. This is a limited run. It’s nine-and-a-half weeks. I have to make sure I’ve finished this properly, and I have devoted all of my heart and soul and my time in this moment to Norma Desmond,” she continued, adding, “Then the right thing will come along after that.”
