By Sarah Fitzmaurice

She’s a mentor and judge on the X Factor USA and is currently juggling promoting her own solo music.

But despite her hectic schedule Nicole Scherzinger has also found the time to squeeze in being a gorgeous cover model and she graces the latest issue of Vegas magazine.

The 33-year-old former Pussycat Doll believes that after working hard over the years‘the stars are aligning’ and she is in more demand than ever.

In one snap Nicole, who recently split from her boyfriend of three years Lewis Hamilton, shows off different sides to her personality standing in a variety of different and playful poses.

The Don’t Hold Your Breath singer shows off her perfect pins in a pair of tiny snake print shorts and a satin navy blazer with nothing underneath.

She stands tall in a pair of peep-toe Louboutins as she dances around showing off her moves.

While she is all smiles in the snaps Nicole has spoken out about her emotional behaviour and how she is often seen crying on the X Factor show.

She explained: ‘I’m not a pretty crier. But I am like an open heart to music when someone moves me and touches me, I can’t help it.’

Given that Nicole is used to fighting for fame and went through a series of auditions to land her place in the Pussycat Dolls, the group that propelled her to international fame the singer has admitted to relating to the contestants.

But Miss Scherzinger admits she didn’t make the most of her first years in the spotlight and reveals it went by as a bit of a blur.

Lady in red: Nicole has spoken out about why she gets emotional on X Factor and said: ¿I¿m not a pretty crier. But I am like an open heart to music when someone moves me and touches me, I can¿t help it¿

She explained: ‘It was international and global, but when you are inside the bubble and trying to make it to the top and then when you get there and you are trying to stay at the top, you don’t see what the rest of the world sees. It kind of passed me by, and that’s a little bit of the regret that I have.’

There’s no doubt about it Nicole is more driven than most and while she feels like the effort is finally paying off she doesn’t take it for granted.

She said: ‘I feel like I have put a lot of hard work into my career over the years, and now some of that hard work is paying off and the stars are aligning…you never know where the path is going to lead, but I’m along for the ride and trying to stay ahead of the game.’

In the cover shot to accompany the magazine interview Nicole is seen peering over her shoulder in a stunning midnight blue backless gown, with plenty of her olive skin on show.

Nicole, who in another shot is seen gazing into the camera in a scarlet dress with a sultry look on her face, has already been linked to X Factor host Steve Jones and rapper Drake in the wake of her split from Lewis Hamilton.

But the Welsh TV presenter has rubbished the reports the pair are any more than friends and yesterday quipped: 'That's ridiculous. We have a definite brother and sister thing going on.'
