Written by . Published: December 27 2013
Nicole Scherzinger is in talks to make her Broadway debut in the revival of Pippin.
The former Pussycat Dolls star would replace Tony award-winning actress Patina Miller as the Leading Player in the story of a young prince who embarks on a dangerous journey to find out the meaning of his life.
A source tells the New York Daily News, "It's a 90% done deal. She
is a good singer, a great dancer and an amazing looker. However,
most important, she will sell tickets."
Scherzinger previously starred in the Hollywood Bowl production of
Rent.
Pippin first appeared on Broadway in 1972 and the revival launched
in March (13) and runs into next year (14).
