X Factor USA host Nicole Scherzinger lit up the ‘American Idol’ stage tonight with a scorching premiere performance of new single ‘Right There’.
The track, which was released on US iTunes this week, should see a noticeable spike in sales given Idol’s 20 million plus audience; a figure which may soar higher as the season approaches its final stretch.
Watch Nicole and guest 50 Cent in action below…

Man, that performance was BAD. It definitely does the song 0% justice. I think its the way she sings the song on audio that makes it super hard to perform. She kind of sings it with a reggae-esque type vibe, that she obviously can’t pull off.

Very poor performance. even rihanna can do better. nicole needs to be in a group, she just can’t be a solo artist. i didn’t even know she was so basic. she needs the girls back. she can keep trying, she is just WACK !!!
her vocals are horrible…. the dancing is mediocre. Zero energy!! she can go back in london where they have awful tastes but she doesn’t have enough talent to shine in america.

hey…big stan of gaga, but the only reason she got #1 because oprah is going away this year…so her market isnt as big as it was 4years ago, when she was making 300-400 mill a year…..nobody could have beat that…especialy not that 90 mill gaga got.

OK HATERS in this site, all this hate is uncalled for, gaga , beyonce, rihanna etc are irrevelant when judging an individual perfomance. Nicole is different. listen to the song empethasize and put yourself in that stage. it seems like a very simple song but its not an easy live dancing and singing. Am sorry she did a great job. when you think about it how many perfomers are there in this past two years that have brought it. gaga, beyonce , rihanna, katy perry , kelly rowland AND NICOLE IS UP IN THE TOP 10. Beacuse of our ignorance and unevolving taste in different genres in music, the uk market is blossoming and all our artists are tapping overseas market. Its such a shame. She put her own live spin and her dancing was great, there was nothing bad about that perfomance. she nailed it. sometimes we have to put our judgements aside a nd just give praise when its due people

God you guys can be so negative…. Nicole, Gaga, Beyonce, and Rihanna all have NOTHING in common. They’re 4 v different artists, none of them sound/look/dance the same, you lot compare everyone to each other… The negativity on these pages bore me, so repetitive!!!!!
Wasn’t her best performance but atleast she danced and sung live and did it well!

I LOVE THIS SONG and hope it does well. However, this performance sucks. I didn’t like the fact that she changed the lyrics and she didn’t sound her best. Plus, the dancing wasn’t good.
Maybe the jetset life is not agreeing with her body.

she has spent a lot of money on this project to make us enjoy her music and yall are calling her a flop for no reason!

I’m really not feeling Nicole. She does not offer anything fresh to the already overpopulated female urban pop game. She comes off more like a Beyonce wannabe. On top of that, the song is just not good. Love me some 50 Cent though.

Nicole is one of the wackist performers. Solo, she’s terrible. Her singing is absolutely horrible! She sounds like an old ass grandma who smoked cigarettes all of her life. She looked like a bony ostrich onstage as well. She can’t dance for anything. She was so stiff.
This song is so wack and I am sick and tired of these females, Nicole, Keri, ect copying off of Rihanna’s “What’s My Name” and I don’t even like Rihanna!
Nicole is what, 34 now or about to be? Girl, it’s time to hang it up, get married, and have kids.
