Nicole Scherzinger opens up about her emotional time on X Factor

Nicole Scherzinger admitted her ‘emotional’ split from long-term boyfriend Lewis Hamilton has made this year’s X Factor particularly ‘hard’ for her.
The 35-year-old – who parted with the Formula 1 star, 28, after five-years in July – declared she is ‘not a robot’ after breaking down twice during auditions for the ITV show.

‘On the personal side it has been a hard year for me,’ she confessed.
‘I am not a robot and I wear my heart on my sleeve.
‘I think I’ve been a bit more emotional through the audition process this year because I was going through some stuff internally,’ she said as she hosted the Judges’ Houses round in Antigua this weekend.The former Pussycat Doll will choose her three finalists in the girls category in tonight’s show at 7.10pm.
Last night judge Sharon Osbourne picked prison officer Sam Bailey, single mother Shelley Smith and Lorna Simpson for her over-25s category, while Louis Walsh chose Luke Friend, Sam Callahan and Nicholas McDonald for the boys category.
