Nicole Scherzinger battled nerves before taking the stage before her fellow judges on Thursday’s “X Factor” results show. Dressed in all black with her hair in a ponytail, the Hawaiian hottie debuted her new single “Pretty” off her solo debut Killer Love, due next year in the U.S.

Nicole belted out the booming mid-tempo production, sharing her frustration with a man who couldn’t see past her beauty. “I don’t know why I put up with you, can’t believe I am nothing but pretty,” she sings.

What do you think of Nicole’s new tune? Watch her premiere it below.

Nicole Scherzinger brought the drama while singing the title track from The Phantom of the Opera at the Royal Variety Performance. The “X Factor” judge took the stage before Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, during the annual gala, which was taped earlier this month. To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the musical, composer Andrew Lloyd Webber enlisted Nicole to play Christine opposite the four Phantoms.

In addition to the Pussycat Doll, Cee Lo Green performed his single “Anyway” and dueted with Leona Lewis on a cover of Queen’s “Somebody to Love.”

Roll out the royal performances below.

Nicole Scherzinger will go before her fellow judges when she performs on tomorrow’s “X Factor.”

The former Pussycat Doll will debut her new single “Pretty” on Thursday’s results show. “I am performing tomorrow on ‘X Factor,’” she told “Access Hollywood.” “I’m really excited. It’s a brand new flipping song. No one’s ever heard it. I just did it. It’s like, literally hot.”

The song will appear on her oft-delayed solo debut Killer Love, due stateside in early 2012. “It’s called ‘Pretty.’ I love the song. I’m really proud of it. I’m performing it for the first time ever,” she said. “It’s like a mid-tempo, but it’s good. You’re going to love it.”

In the U.S., the album has spawned the singles “Right There” featuring 50 Cent and “Don’t Hold Your Breath.” A collaboration with Snoop Dogg called “Peep Show,” penned by R. Kelly, is also expected to make the cut.

Nicole Scherzinger hit the stage on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” on Friday night to perform her current U.S. single “Don’t Hold Your Breath” off her solo debut Killer Love. Beautiful in all black, the “X Factor” judge was backed by a full band as she powered through her late-night performance.

Nicole Scherzinger unwound during her cheerful visit to British talk show “Alan Carr: Chatty Man.” The former Pussycat Doll toasted with a glass of WKD vodka before discussing her replacement of Cheryl Cole on “The X Factor,” why women find Simon Cowell attractive, being flashed by a contestant, and the upcoming U.K. re-release of her solo debut Killer Love. She also nailed her Britney Spears impression and yodeled with the funnyman.

Her “X Factor” boss Simon recently called her ruthless and selfish, to which she responded, “If believing in yourself and working hard and going after what you want in life and realizing your worth is ruthless and selfish, then I’m definitely ruthless and selfish.” Two snaps.

Nicole Scherzinger was back in black on Britain’s “X Factor” results show. The newly single singer, who recently shot down rumors that she’s dating Drake, stunned in a lacy black gown while performing her new single “Try With Me” for the first time on television. She will repackage her solo debut Killer Love for release in the U.K. on November 14, with a U.S. release to follow in December.

Nicole Scherzinger takes to the rainforest to debut her new song and video for “Try With Me.” The Nervo-penned tune starts off slow with the “X Factor” judge playing the piano in the water before the pounding beat drops. The Hawaii-born beauty filmed the clip amongst the lush greenery and waterfalls of the Xilitla rainforest in Mexico.

The song will appear on a U.K. repackaging of her solo debut Killer Love, due November 14, featuring three new songs including “Trust Me I Lie” and “Tomorrow Never Dies.” The album arrives stateside on December 6.

Nicole Scherzinger rose bright and early to perform her new single “Don’t Hold Your Breath” on “Good Morning America’s” Fall Concert Series.

The “X Factor” judge shared how Whitney Houston inspired her at a young age. “Whitney is just magical,” Nicole told host Robin Roberts. “There’s no one else like her, ever been like her, and she just spoke to my heart. I knew right then that I wanted to be a singer.”

Nicole will star in the upcoming film Men in Black III and is readying her solo debut Killer Love for a U.S. release later this year. “It’s an empowering album for everyone, but it comes from heartbreak and love as well. It makes you want to dance, it makes you feel good, it’s uplifting.”

Nicole Scherzinger turned up the volume with her sexy set at the iHeartRadio Music Festival. The “X Factor” judge performed material from her solo debut Killer Love including “Right There,” “Don’t Hold Your Breath,” and “Club Banger Nation.” She got up close and personal with Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler while dueting on “(It) Feels So Good,” as “Idol’s” Randy Jackson played bass. Watch their steamy onstage session below.

Nicole Scherzinger turned up the heat on last night’s “Conan.” During their candid conversation, the “X Factor” judge professed her love for the red-haired talk show host. “I’ve been a groupie forever,” she admitted to Conan, who had trouble keeping his eyes on her face. The sexy singer, arousing in a skin-tight dress, also explained how women go crazy for Simon Cowell’s “moobs” and did a pretty damn good impression of Britney Spears as she sang “Oops!…I Did It Again.” “It’s like a form of flattery ’cause I love Britney,” said Nicole.
