Nicole Scherzinger Burns Leg Before Düsseldorf Show, Performs That Night

Her Instagram image of blistered skin highlights the tour's reliance on social media after most North American dates were canceled.

Overview

  • Scherzinger says boiling water fell on her leg about an hour before the Düsseldorf set on Sunday and she posted an Instagram Story describing the accident.
  • The singer shared a photo showing blistered, darkened skin from the burn on her leg in the Instagram Story.
  • Despite the injury, she completed the performance at the PSD Bank Dome and thanked the Düsseldorf audience for helping her get through the show.
  • The PCD Forever European run is staged with only three original members — Scherzinger, Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt — after the group canceled most North American dates in May due to weak ticket sales.
  • The tour moves next to Amsterdam with no public medical update for Scherzinger, and the incident draws fresh attention to performer welfare and the tour's commercial challenges.
