X Factor fans left confused as 'try hard' Nicole Scherzinger opens the show singing - Mirror

It's normally some crazy comments from Sharon Osbourne that steal the show, but this week Nicole Scherzinger was the centre of attention for all the wrong reasons.

The pop star was asked on Thursday to sing at the opening of Saturday night's show, and she belted out a medley of I'm Every Woman and RESPECT to launch Diva week.

However, the songstress was slain on social media as viewers vented their anger about the X Factor turning into the "Nicole Show".

One fan tweeted: "I didn't ask for a Nicole Scherzinger concert. What the hell is this? #GetOff."

Another angry fan tweeted: "OMG here we go again The Nicole Show again. Thought it was the X Factor #Bloodyidiot."

Someone else said: "Nicole loves herself too much thought it was the X Factor not the Nicole show, simmer down."

The abuse didn't stop as another man tweeted: "Nicole's so annoying.. Not The X Factor anymore.. The Cringe Factor more like XFactor XFactorLiveShows ."

Not all the comments were negative about the American star, however, and a few people actually loved her performance.

"That's was probably best performance on x factor this year . Love it nicole. Was up on the living room floor lol," said one.

Someone else added: "Nicole Scherzinger......1,000 times more talent than all the X Factor finalists combined."
