Nicole Scherzinger breaks down in tears at X Factor bootcamp during emotional song (FunxSite)

NICOLE Scherzinger broke down in tears at The X Factor boot camp just days after The Sun revealed her boyfriend Lewis Hamilton partied with TEN girls in his hotel suite.

The former Pussycat Doll wept after hearing a contestant called Ella sing Cher’s song Believe at the try-out in Liverpool.

An insider said: “Nicole sobbed so hard the other judges gathered around her and a producer came over to see if she could carry on.

“It was about 20 minutes before she said she was fine and got her make-up artist over to redo her face.

“Obviously, the song lyrics – ‘Do you believe in life after love’ – really moved her, particularly after what happened.”

We revealed Nicole’s fury after Formula 1 driver Lewis partied until 5.30am in his £3,800-a-night London hotel room with girls he met out clubbing.

An onlooker said: “Three make-up artists rushed on to the stage to sort her out as all her make-up had run.

"She was clearly very upset and it’s little wonder as it’s been a torrid few days for her. But she’s a true pro and just got on with things.

"But it’s clear things are very testing for her at the moment.”

As she arrived at the auditions, Nicole looked stunning in a cherry dress which inadvertently got caught by the breeze at one point.

The singer, who was a guest judge on the show in 2010, was confirmed as Kelly Rowland’s replacement last month.

But beneath the smiles for the cameras, she’s said to ­“absolutely livid” with Lewis, 27.

According to pals the X Factor judge took the racing driver to task over his ­“disrespectful attitude” to their relationship.

McLaren driver Lewis was pictured early on Wednesday morning surrounded by girls at the Mayfair Hotel after a night at nearby Funky Buddha nightclub.

He hired a £5,000 penthouse apartment suite for an after-party with the sportsman reportedly spraying champagne around the suite before finally calling it a night at 5am
