"X Factor" judge Nicole Scherzinger was looking slightly distressed, but tried to put on a smile as she did an interview for "Extra" at The Grove in Los Angeles, California on December 9, 2011. Scherzinger recently caught some serious backlash on "The X Factor" when she decided to leave it to the voters to decide who would go home from the show during the last episode. The decision backfired and resulted in a major upset, and 13-year-old frontrunner Rachel Crow being sent home, unexpectedly.
