The singers debut has been marred in many delays -- several years worth if you count the ill-fated album Her Name Is Nicole, which Scherzinger worked on from 2006 to 2008 but never saw released. While Killer Love did come out in the UK, where it landed at No. 8 on the countrys album chart and has sold more than 140,000 copies, thanks in large part to the strength of single, Dont Hold Your Breath, a No. 1 hit, it appears Scherzinger is still tinkering with the U.S. version, whichfeatures an alternate track-listing and production by RedOne, Jim Jonsin, The-Dream, Harvey Mason, Jr. (with R. Kelly) and Tricky Stewart. Featured guests reportedly include 50 Cent (Right There), Snoop Dogg (Peep Show) and Sting (Powers Out).

Im doing the best music I can for my fans, the Pussycat Dolls singer-turned-X Factor judge tells THR. Music that they can relate to, that they can be inspired by, that they'll fall in love with, that will ignite them... When I'm not at X Factor, I'm at the studio at night. I feel amazing about [the album].

And even though! the alb um and its constant has become somewhat of an industry punch-line, it doesnt appear that Scherzinger takes it all that personally. You know what, I've been waiting for it so long, I dont even care about a couple more months, she says. Whats the difference? It's coming out when it's ready to come out.

In the meantime, Scherzinger is dedicating herself to X Factor, which she adds is taking up a lot more of my time than I anticipated. In addition to my duties as a judge, the mentoring is a full-time job. I want to make sure that when I put my album out, I have the time to devote to promoting it."
