Celebs React To 'Sunset Blvd.' Starring Nicole Scherzinger

[@LDFA1979]

Way overdue. I'm glad she is getting the recognition she deserves. The full package and the talent to back it up. Age is just a number. If you are extraordinary, it will show. Respect from her peers is also way overdue. I'm thankful everyone is catching up and realizing how amazing she is. I'm so glad for her moment. 💛💛💛💛

[@myrlamorta2863]

She was taken as judge in Got Talent. That means she's still active young and old. She never becomes obsolete. Our Nicole is so amazing. Her father is a Filipino. We're so proud of her. Brunoars, Enrique Iglisias, Olivia Rodrigo and many more.

[@ML-xh6rd]

Her bio dad was a deadbeat which us why her last name is Scherzinger and not Valiente. He deserves no credit for the person and artist that she is today.

[@mananimal3644]

Well poor thang. Looks like she got so excited that bit her lip. My goodness.🫣

[@NFTProductions]

She's very talented and never gave up. You can see how hard she worked to get to this point. I'm excited to see this show - heading to NYC this week!

[@sj6546]

So deserved. Her performance of “Don’t cry for me Argentina” was beautiful and showed what she could do on Broadway. I’m so happy for her.

[@1224dlc]

I saw her singing from Phantom Of the Opera on PBS, and she was AMAZING! I think the Pussycat Dolls was a start, but she doesn’t need to be in a girl pop group. Her voice is powerful! This is wonderful for her! It is about time!

[@peaceloveandunderstanding]

She's always been underrated. So very happy for her.

[@chocolateangel8743]

I'm not surprised. She's always been really talented. I just think that the entertainment industry didn't know what to do with her.

[@ML-xh6rd]

True. Because by the time she went solo she was 30-ish and the music industry doesn't know how to market a woman, only teeny-bopper girls.

[@manantial773]

Way overdue! I have always been in her team, her voice is MAGIC!

[@myrlamorta2863]

True. She's active and still in demand. Her talent and body is ageless.

[@garylaverty6636]

She is massively loved in the UK! We have took her as our own national treasure! She was fabulous on xfactor and I love her 2 solo albums - I saw her killer love tour in Belfast and it was amazing ❤

[@melbamaloney4572]

Yes good for the UK enjoying her msssive talents the USA slept on her but are finally awaking to the gargantuan talents of this drop dead gorgeous artist ! So happy for her ditto with her millions of fans and Sunset Boulevard has gained more fans for Nicole btw watched this show in London twice and three times in Broadway will be back for more yay go Nicole !

[@123malichi]

@@melbamaloney4572I think Andrew Lloyd Webber we should thank for believing in Nicole.

[@myrlamorta2863]

She can dance, she can sing, she can act. No one is like her. She won many contests. Being a pussycat doll is really extraordinary. She caught all the talents. One best thing with her is she's very supportive to Filipino contestants. She's proud to be half Filipino. I want Bruno Mars, Chris, in Glee, Inrique Iglesias, Olivia Rodrigo, Vanessa Hudgens and many more to perform together. But such is a very big project with these Fil-Am great artists.

[@TheeIntrinsicOne]

Finally, they are seeing Nicole! She’s always been an amazing singer and person. Knock em dead Nicole ❤❤❤❤❤ What spectacular reviews for a Broadway Debut!!!!

At last.. She got this well deserve recognition from moment and im sure theres still alot more for her.

[@craigmiller-randle8921]

I always remember discovering a video of her singing Don’t cry for me Argentina from Evita and I was totally stunned, I could not believe the quality of her voice and interpretation. I had only known her from Pussycat Dolls and had assumed she was just an average singer. She’s not, she has a superb voice and I’m just thrilled she had found her stride in her chosen industry 👏👏

[@cw5451]

I saw that video also and had the same reaction. She is so amazingly talented!

[@Sugas_Girr]

That's incredible!!! So happy for her!!! She completely deserves it!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ten3353]

Nicole is very underrated. She deserves all the success… plus Mr Andrew Lloyd Webber also rates her very highly… can’t get better than that!

[@MemoirsofaGamer1982]

Nicole has been huge in the UK for almost 20 years. Im glad the rest of the world is finally seeing shes a f**king powerhouse!!!! One of the most overlooked American talents, ever!!! She's so much more than a member of a girl band. ❤

[@MoniqueChenard-e2t]

She has worked long and hard and finally getting the recognition she deserves.

[@jasonwoods7342]

Saw it last night. People gasped. Clutched their pearls. Cried. It was sensational.

[@danitydon6976]

wow im so glad people are catching onto the fact that nicole can do anything and do it well

[@quinnhen2325]

Her voice is PHENOMENAL!!!!! Truly incredible. She should be in every broadway musical!

We in the UK have always known Nicole was born extremely talented. It's just taken the world a minute to know! It's about damn time too! Congratulations!👏🎉😇😘

[@kennethdrake7686]

I’ve been a fan when I watched her on PopStar and made it into the group Eden’s Crush!

[@melbamaloney4572]

Believe all the hype and positive buzz and the rave compliments of show biz colleagues is a validation of her massive multi hyphenate talents and gifts and finally the USA is waking up to her artistry ! Seen Nicole et al twice in ?onion and three times in NYC the show is truly addictive and lots of the audience are running for repeats . This performance and production should be in everyone’s bucket list and be prepared to hold on to your seats because you will be blown away❤❤❤

[@Richie8a8y]

Historical theatrical experience - u can’t just wait for the film it is why theatre is the greatest art form on the planet - it’s happening in front of your with a group of people. This is the performance they’ll be talking about in 150 years / like Brando in Streetcar’ / Like Laurette Taylor in ‘Glass Menagerie’ - guess u had to be there .

[@melbamaloney4572]

That's my Filipina! Nicole will duplicate what Lea Salonga did, winning both Olivier Award and Tony award. MABUHAY KA NICOLE!

[@iago07]

Now don’t forget we have Audra still to open in Gypsy… so I caution the hyperbole. Nicole is a talented singer for sure.

[@MP-lq3xx]

right...I always wish they'd say...one of the best, etc. so it doesn't 'box' them in if another performance like this comes round

[@melbamaloney4572]

My bet is on Nicole !

[@melbamaloney4572]

Why these people who watched it are just expressing their opinions and their profuse praises might be hyperbole for you but not for them and the Broadway audience who think so including myself no offense to Audra !

[@singingbarney5]

Not another Gypsy.. this performance deserves every success. Nicole is phenomenal as is Tom and the rest of the cast.

[@nicoletrudell2065]

Audra is gonna slay in Gypsy, but it will not be a redefining moment for either her or that show, just another probably very good revival of Gypsy. What Nicole and this production of Sunset Boulevard are doing is transformative, and will actually impact and expand the ways people envision making theater going forward. The way people keep saying they've never seen anything like it tells you how blown away they are by the groundbreaking experience of this production.

[@infinitelightcouncil]

It's all she ever wanted ❤

[@1960mikey]

I 100% agree, Ms. Scherzinger’s voice and acting are so worthy of the recognition! However, I had major issues with the staging - someone with a theater degree needs to explain the tornadoes of smoke during each of her pivotal songs. I was surprised with the street scene intro into Act II and upon leaving the venue, the security man running along side Tom Francis (Joe Gillis), was outside the theater! Is this part of the show LIVE every night? Or… is it sadly pre-recorded? Did anyone catch the CATS Easter Egg?

[@melbamaloney4572]

@@1960mikey No Joe venturing into the streets is happening every night live rain or shine , snow or sleet they were able to pull this off in London every day . The production is prepared for any weather since this is an integral part of the show .When Norma sings “ As if We Never Said Goodbye “ the scene shows smoke and the ensemble behind her watching her which I opine is Norma ‘s delusion that she is still the star and the rest of Hollywood are in awe watching and adoring her . Smoke is always used to connect dreamlike sequences and in each song there was a lot of smoke which propelled Norma ‘s mind that she is still in top form and that her people in the dark are still awaiting for her grand return when she sings “ Just one look “ . Also with the smoke comes the spotlight because in her mind she is still the star that shines the brightest ! Hey that is just my take but in most of productions and concerts I have watched they include smoke for more spectacle and dreamlike aura .Jamie Lloyd is a director of detail and each prop he uses has an impact on the show .

[@1960mikey]

@@melbamaloney4572 if I wasn’t seeing 7 shows in 4 days, I could stand outside the St. James to watch this live - this would be exciting to see 8 times a week! I call BS in the dreamlike smoke sessions - cause clearly in the last one, she was taking a steam shower! LOL!

You most certainly can make money on broadway especially if you are a celebrity

[@franciseshun1367]

Go sister Nicole u were always the Queen.

[@ME-jy8jk]

This was the second Broadway show I saw, the original, with Glenn Close, who cannot sing her way out of wet paper bag. It was atrocious, and the score itself is not good. I would still see Nicole Scherzinger in it, though, because she is an absolute powerhouse who should have a shelf of awards by now.

[@craigmmcgill]

She’s gonna win the Tony!

[@neila4440]

Except now it turns out she’s a Trump supporter. Sigh. 😢

Good for her!🤗

[@stutew1590]

I saw it on Saturday- yes, PHENOMENAL I don’t understand why she hasn’t been a giant star for the last 25 (or whatever) years I don’t agree with Andrew’s “Best ever” statement though- I think Glenn Close was also amazing, and how can you top Michael Crawford and Sarah Brightman in Phantom? And Ted Neely and Carl Anderson were also GREAT in JC Superstar (I saw a tour with both of them in the 90s). So it’s a six-way tie in my book!!

[@paulajf4205]

Good on her. She's proving that talent and persistence pay. I'm not a big musical fan so unless it's something very different, edgy, like "Bring In Da Noise" or "Hamilton," I probably won't be going despite the raves.

[@mrbroadwaydork]

Good for her, but she has HUGE competition for the Tony. People are getting ahead of themselves, especially given Audra has even opened her show yet...

[@RegentofArrako]

Yea!!!!

[@shayne8980]

I thought that role was for an older actress ? Sarah brightman played the role in Australia?

[@sarapot8873]

The role is actually a person who is Nicole’s age. Icons just get cast in it and we think it should be an older woman. The role is for a woman about 50.

[@dirkandi]

And she does it horribly!!!!

[@shayne8980]

@dirkandi I love Sarah bright man but haven't seen the show so not sure .I.also like.nicole scherzinger as well

[@jonathanrio6587]

I LOVE Rosie O'Donnell, but to say Miss Scherzinger will win the Tony already, is kind of early. ESPECIALLY because AUDRA FREAKING MCDONALD is playing Mama Rose!!!!! It's gonna be VERY close! I will be happy for either to win! (but low key want Audra to win EVERY YEAR! I'm a SUPER fan. hahaha)

Ms Scherzinger is talented for sure; I found this production to be cold and sort of automated, with NO set design, NO costumes, they 'characters' performances had to be heightened but in doing so, to me, they missed the mark, it was over dramatic. I would not recommend this production for anyone to see unless the tickets were for free.

Now she outed herself as a Trump supporter so bye bye Tony. The gay and trans Broadway community may not be so receptive to her now
