Nicole Scherzinger 'Delays X Factor Filming' For Lewis

15:09, Wednesday, 29 August 2012

Nicole Scherzinger reportedly asked producers to delay filming of The X Factor so that she could jet off to see motor racing BF Lewis Hamilton.

According to The Sun, the former Pussycat Doll, who is in her first season as a judge on the UK show, delayed shooting of the judges' houses phase for 24 hours in order to spend time with the Formula One driver.

The paper reports that Nicole requested a change in the schedule, flying to London to catch up with Hamilton before the Belgian Grand Prix this weekend.

Just a few hours later, she was off to Dubai to begin whittling down her hopefuls ahead of the live finals.

A source told the tabloid: "[Nicole] begged for some quality time with Lewis. It meant she had to step off an overnight plane and begin shooting straight away.

"She must have been exhausted but she felt it was worth it to spend just a few hours with her man. They're obviously very much loved up once more."

The on-off couple are rumoured to have hit a rocky patch following Hamilton's now infamous hotel party, but seem to have put the incident behind them.
