Nicole Scherzinger remembers being a shy child

London, Aug 30 (IANS) Nicole Scherzinger, the lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, says she was a shy child and had a strict upbringing. “Believe it or not, I used to be cripplingly shy. My grandfather was a preacher. I came from a very religious, strict upbringing in Hawaii and I wasn’t very popular. Guys just wouldn’t go out with me,” the singer was quoted as saying by thesun.co.uk.

Nicole was born in Hawaii and moved to mainland US when she was six. She says loved music and that allowed her to express herself.

“It wasn’t until I got to high school that I began to blossom. Even though I was shy, uncomfortable and lanky, my music brought me out of myself,” she said.
