Simon Cowell won't be happy when he sees this.

Nicole Scherzinger has finally spoken about being axed from The X Factor USA.

And let's just say, the claws are well and truly out.

During a shoot for the new Herbal Essences campaign, the former judge told Access Hollywood: “What happened? All I know is I gave 110% to that show."

She added: "Everybody's talking about it - they love me or hate me.

"But one thing you can't say is I didn't give it my all."

But choosing to take the high road, perhaps, Nicole ended her little rant on a brighter note.

She said: "I had a wonderful experience on the show. I loved being a part of my X Factor family. Nothing could obviously prepare me for everything I had to go through, all the emotions and stuff, but I have no regrets."

The Pussycat Doll added: "I've always believed in never looking back and I've got an amazing year to look forward to."

Could that amazing year have anything to do with a rumoured reconciliation with ex-boyfriend Lewis Hamilton?

We surely hope so - not even Simon can compare to that race ace.
