Nicole falling into depression over career and love life?
Quote:
Nicole Scherzinger is reportedly unhappy with the way her solo career is going, so is "throwing herself" into other ventures instead.
The 36-year-old has been super busy with work recently, promoting her new album Big Fat Lie and appearing in the West End revival of Cats.
Despite positive reviews, Big Fat Lie only managed to chart at number 17, selling around 5,000 copies in its first week and quickly fell off the charts.
Alongside this she's nurturing her on/off relationship with Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton, 29, amid rumours she's keen for him to make a commitment, but he hasn't made one.
And all the strain is thought to be getting on top of her.
"Nicole puts so much pressure on herself to succeed that she ends up burning out," an insider told British magazine Star.
"Her solo career isn't going as well as she hoped, so she's throwing herself into other projects. But she's not looking after herself. She's drained and unhappy."
Last month Nicole caused concern when she reportedly asked her driver to pull over in rush-hour traffic because she felt unwell. Stopping would have been dangerous, so they had to continue on their journey.
"Nicole felt ill and was disorientated. She screamed at her driver to pull over, but he couldn't so she just opened the door," the insider continued.
It's a shame that this is happening because she's very talented, but she really doesn't have an ear for good music and her team is an absolute disaster. Still, I hope things work out for her.
It's sad because "Run" is the best pop ballad of the year. It deserves to be a hit everywhere. I think she would be happier if she didn't try to be such a big star. I'm sure she could have a successful indie music career. But I'm sure it's hard coming from such a high with the PCD, hopefully she gets better.
awww omg I hope this isn't true although I think it might be she has looked really sad the last few months you guys should buy Big Fat Lie on iTunes I bought it physically last week bc I felt sorry for the good sis and I was at a cd store looking for selenas greatest hits cd so but couldn't find it so just bought nicoles album instead. It has some good moments
As much as I dislike Nicole, she has to realize she has made a career out of nothing, literally. Her Popstars group didn't make much of anything yet her name is still around...13 years later. That's an accomplishment. If the album or any future album doesn't actualize into a success just know you made your own success by staying relevant.
I genuinely feel bad for her. She's been chasing solo stardom since 2007 when she released Whatever U Like/Baby Love/Puakenikeni/Supervillain/etc and none of them took off. She's pretty much been in the same space she's been since PCD ended, it's kind of nauseating to think of, so I can't fathom how she must feel about it all.
It's a real shame because Big fat lie is actually a great album. i guess the reason it failed to connect with the GP is that its not commercial enough. But i could care less. She finally found her own sound, and delivered quality music.
2 months later and im still appreciating this album more and more with each listen.
I knew she had a new album but this is the first time I've realized what it's called. I know she is beautiful and talented, but because of her numerous solo-attempts I can't help but think of her as "washed-up". Like there's chasing your dreams and all, but there's also knowing when to call it a day. The music simply isn't good enough.
I don't know why she think's she has a chance at going solo, musically I'm not interested in her outside PCD. I can see her being a Host or a TV Personality, she has more chance going down that root. I was here for Whatever U Like/Baby Love and Right Here though but seems like the GPs not really interested in her. The UK Seems to like her though.

Run needs to smash
