Nicole Scherzinger Performs After Suffering Boiling Water Burns

Nicole Scherzinger performed with the Pussycat Dolls in Dublin on Monday, just days after sustaining burns from an accident involving boiling water. The singer, 48, was injured an hour before a performance in Düsseldorf last weekend when boiling water spilled on her leg, resulting in burns and blisters.

Despite the injury, Scherzinger joined bandmates Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt on stage at The 3Arena in Dublin as part of the UK and Ireland leg of their PCD Forever tour. She appeared in a sequin bikini ensemble, showcasing her toned figure. Roberts, 45, and Wyatt, 44, wore similar outfits, completing their looks with lace-up boots and elaborate makeup.

Scherzinger documented her injury on social media last Sunday, posting a picture of her burns and blisters. She expressed her determination to continue with the tour, stating, "Nothing like boiling water falling on your leg an hour before your set - but the show must go on."

The Pussycat Dolls reunited earlier this year, releasing their first single in six years. However, the group was forced to cancel the US leg of their comeback tour due to low ticket sales. The band cited a difficult decision after reviewing the North American run, canceling all but one date. They stated that their UK and European dates were proceeding as planned and had received an "incredible" response, with several shows selling out.

The band's comeback has also been marked by controversy regarding the exclusion of founding members Carmit Bachar, Jessica Sutta, and Melody Thornton. Bachar and Sutta stated they were unaware of the reunion plans and Sutta called it a "cash grab."
