Nicole scherzinger gunpoint in Mexico

Nicole Scherzinger held at gunpoint,“X Factor” judge Nicole Scherzinger, 33, reportedly was held up at gunpoint in Mexico  by a local gang. The singer’s  choreographer says they were traveling through town to shoot her new music video and got pulled over by mysterious gunmen. They were both released without harm.

The singer visited the country to film the video for her single Try with Me.

She was travelling through the mountains to the Xilitla rainforest with X Factor choreographer Brian Friedman, when their vehicle was held up by a local gang.


“We were held at gunpoint,” Brian exclusively told Star magazine. “People next to our cars…there were M16s and Berettas!”

The group were riding in a bullet proof SUV as the area was known to be dangerous.

Luckily Nicole and her team were released without harm.

Brian is still a little shaken by the experience.

“Nicole cursed me with this trip,” he declared. “It was the craziest adventure ever!”

The singer put on a brave face. She didn’t want to scare her fans so she didn’t mention the incident on Twitter.
