3. Scherzinger sizzles!
SEPANG: Sultry songstress Nicole Scherzinger had only one word to describe the Sepang International Circuit and the ongoing 2012 Formula One Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix.
Amazing, she exclaimed at the paddock area of the circuit.
It's beautiful here and it's even more special as I am of Asian descent. I'm proud to be here, she said yesterday.
Scherzinger is not only watching her boyfriend McLaren Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton in action, but she also performed at Friday night's Twin Towers@Live 2012 concert.
On Hamilton grabbing pole position for today's race, she said: I am so proud of him. I am very happy for him and his team.
The former Pussycat Doll vixen, who is on her first visit to the circuit, was clad in a bright yellow-printed sundress and shades.
She wore minimal make-up and a pair of sandals to suit the hot Malaysian weather.
Scherzinger and Hamilton met in 2007. However, they split up in January 2010 and again last year. They then announced their reunion in December last year and blamed the on-off relationship on their hectic lifestyles.
Jessica Michibata, the model girlfriend of Hamilton's teammate Jenson Button, was also present to add a dash of glitz to the Malaysian racing scene.
The 33-year-old said she was happy with her performance in front of thousands of fans on Friday night.
It was electrifying and there was beautiful energy all around. It was beautiful to look out and sing for the fans. Their support was amazing, she added.
