There’s no decorous way to say this, so let’s dive straight in. Nicole Scherzinger, Olivier- and Tony-winning friend of His and Her Majesties, has opened our conversation talking about … lady parts. I wanted to keep things above board. She’s immediately gone below waist.
To be fair, this has happened because I’ve asked the 47-year-old American to give me her best Scottish accent and/or phrase. Not something this Scotsman would have previously considered requesting from a Hawaiian-Ukrainian-Filipino former Pussycat Doll, X Factor judge and West End and Broadway superstar. But her husband-to-be is Scottish former rugby player Thom Evans. She’s surely learned some Jock bantz from him. “I have, but I’m afraid to say them,” she replies, simultaneously very demure and very mindful. “Oh, you’re gonna judge me. I’m gonna get in trouble from my fiancé… He says a phrase sometimes that is a funny thing, and so it’s the first thing I think of. But I don’t think I’m allowed to say it.”
