" Nicole Scherzinger believes she is brave for being away from her loved ones. The former Pussycat Dolls star is currently away from home while she is a judge on The X Factor in the UK.  After ending a five-year relationship with British Formula 1 racing driver Lewis Hamilton in July, she is now feeling alone in the country. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m being brave right now because I&amp;#039;m here alone, all my friends and family are all back home,&amp;quot; she told Look magazine. &amp;quot;[Being brave] is the story of my life... It has been a tough year. I was obviously going through some stuff internally.&amp;quot; Since The Pussycat Dolls broke up in 2010 she has been focusing on her solo career.  &amp;quot;My work keeps me busy,&amp;quot; she continued. &amp;quot;And when I&amp;#039;m not working, I&amp;#039;m in the studio recording.&amp;quot; Nicole added that she gets so nervous when filming the talent show and has resorted to a healthy routine before going in front of the cameras to calm her down. &amp;quot;I puke [before the show]. I get really nervous,&amp;quot; she revealed. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;d much rather be singing on stage than speaking every night, so I go for a run before the shows to clear my head, and I say a prayer. I love my work. I love being here... I&amp;#039;m on a new adventure.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
