“I Love Gary!” Nicole Scherzinger Has a Bit of a Crush on The Former Take That Singer…

We have to admit, ever since Gary Barlow took up the role of judge on The X-Factor, we’ve sort of had a little crush on him and it looks like we’re not the only ones appreciating the Take That singer. Nicole Scherzinger has revealed that she, too, has a bit of a thing for Mr Barlow. Oh-err…

According to reports, Nicole is pretty much head over heels for Gary, despite the fact that she’s currently dating F1 star Lewis Hamilton.

“Garry’s brilliant. He’s such a gentleman. I think I really liked him the day I found out he won Celebrity Dad of the Year. The pride he took in his family and children!” Nicole swooned.

When she was asked if she loved him, she laughed and said: “Yeah! Who doesn’t? He’s a gentleman. He’s a lovely, honest human and he’s a great dad. I love that!”

Gary Barlow - the stud of The X-Factor? Possibly...

Well it’s nice to see that Nicole has some loving feelings for one of her co-stars, because recently the former Pussycat Doll was accused of having a bit of a war with fellow judge Tulisa Contostavlos. Are we likely to see any handbags at dawn?

“I think it took her a second to warm to me because we didn’t know each other,” said Nicole, speaking about Tulisa.

“When we got to sit down and share some wine together and talk and see each other as humans, and tell each other about our backgrounds and stories and our own lives, we really related to one another. I feel like I can learn a lot from her and she can learn a lot from me,” Nicole added.

Nicole says that there is no longer any tension between herself and Tulisa.

Right, so no handbags at dawn then. That’s good to know. Are you glued to the current series of The X-Factor? Will you be watching it tonight?
