Nicole Scherzinger sustained painful burns and blisters on her leg after spilling boiling water just one hour before taking the stage for a Pussycat Dolls concert in Düsseldorf, life.dir.bg reported. The September incident occurred right before the group’s performance in the German city as part of their European reunion tour.
Scherzinger performs despite severe leg injury
The 48-year-old singer shared a photograph on Instagram showing visible blisters and redness on her leg following the accident on September 26, according to ladyzone.bg. She posted the image to her Instagram story the day after the concert to describe the accident. Despite the severe injury, Scherzinger proceeded with the show and did not show any signs of discomfort during her performance. She maintained her usual stage presence. The following day, the group traveled to Amsterdam for their next scheduled concert, and Scherzinger subsequently posted preparation photos comparing what the audience sees versus the reality behind the scenes with the caption, “Boiling water on your leg an hour before the show… but the show must go on.” Disco singer Gloria Gaynor responded to the post by calling her a true warrior. Scherzinger did not let the trauma stop the tour.
Tour Cancellations and Ticket Sales
The reunion tour, which features Scherzinger alongside Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt under the name PCD Forever, initially launched in Copenhagen in September following the release of their first single in six years, titled “Club Song.” The group announced their return in March. The tour originally consisted of 53 concerts across Europe, Great Britain, and North America, including stops in Paris, Warsaw, the UK, and Ireland. However, the group faced major setbacks last month when they were forced to cancel all 33 planned dates in the United States and Canada due to weak ticket sales. life.dir.bg reported that poor demand left some North American venues with up to 80 percent empty seats, and even price reductions failed to save that leg of the tour. The European and British dates have continued as planned through October, with the tour scheduled to run until October 30.
