Scherzinger Performs After Reported Scald Before Düsseldorf Show

Published 28 September 2026

Nicole Scherzinger performed with the Pussycat Dolls in Düsseldorf on Saturday, September 26, after saying boiling water fell on her leg about an hour before the concert. She later shared an image of the injury on Instagram, showing blisters, and thanked the audience for supporting her through the show. Scherzinger wrote in an Instagram Story that the incident happened shortly before her set and that she intended to perform despite it. The reports identify the injury as a burn based on her post and the image she shared. The circumstances of how the water spilled, and the injury’s medical severity, have not been independently established. The concert took place at the PSD Bank Dome as part of the Pussycat Dolls’ PCD Forever Tour. Scherzinger was joined by bandmates Ashley Roberts and Kimberly Wyatt. In her post, she also referred to the group’s next stop in Amsterdam, where it was scheduled to perform on Sunday, September 27. The Düsseldorf performance comes as the group continues its European tour. The tour began in June, and upcoming dates listed in reports include shows in Birmingham, Dublin, Glasgow and London.
