Following her Tony award nomination Nicole Scherzinger got honest about how ‘fulfilled’ she feels.
The nomination is for her work on Sunset Boulevard and led the expert to reveal that she is “really grateful and happy”.
While speaking to Extra she even said, “I couldn’t be happier because this is what I’ve always dreamed of since I was a little girl, you know, to perform and to do theatre and musical theatre ever since I saw ‘Miss Saigon’, and this is over 30 years in the making.”
She even took a little drop down memory lane, to recall her best friend from childhood.
According to the star, the two of them went to performing arts school in Louisville, Kentucky,.
Sarah Gettlefinger, was her name and once reminded the actor, “she’s like, ‘Don’t you remember we used to cut pep rallies to work on our art and our theatre and our craft at that young age?’ And I was like ‘You’re right.’ So it’s beautiful to be here and I just feel so fulfilled.”
She also gushed about where she stands now and admitted, “I think it was my director Jamie Lloyd that FaceTimed me from London, and like I said, I’ve come a long way from little Nicole and where I come from and very humble beginnings and I’ve gone through a lot of nos and a lot of rejections to get here, and I think why I’m so grateful is I’m really proud of the show and the work that we’re doing.”
“I always say, I’ve never been more exhausted but more fulfilled. It’s what I asked for, it’s what I prayed for, and I’m ready to show up 110 percent every time. It’s that gratitude, it’s keeping perspective.”
Not to mention, “I got a lot of love to give inside and a lot to give and I get to give that every night and day sometimes, eight shows a week, and I love it!” she added before concluding as well.
