Together since 2007, Hamilton is now as much a part of celebrity magazines as Nicole Scherzinger is present in the Formula 1 paddocks to attend a few races – undoubtedly strategic for her agent.
Thus, we learn that Lewis Hamilton, her boyfriend of over three years now, does not leave room for Madam in the management of the cars.
«Does your guy let you drive? » asks the host. «That’s an original question… but no, he doesn’t let me drive, » replies the leader of the Pussycat Dolls.
And when asked if his status as an F1 driver makes him too macho, Scherzinger replies: «No, he’s rather adorable with me, but he loves his car and is much more careful than I am when he drives, so I let him do it and I don’t have much choice… »
«I don’t understand why when I’m in interviews with men, they get much more excited when they talk about Lewis Hamilton than about my albums, » she adds to remind the main reason for her presence: promoting her new album.
As a reminder, the couple formed after meeting at the MTV Europe ceremony in November 2007. Nicole Scherzinger then became a regular in the paddocks. She even attended Hamilton’s triumph in Brazil in 2008 and broke up with the British driver a few months later. The most talked-about couple in Formula 1 reunited a year ago.
Anecdotally, Lewis Hamilton may not be such a good driver since he has been stopped by police several times. The first time for speeding in France in 2007 (over 195km/h on the highway) and the second time in Australia after doing several donuts (360° turns) with his powerful Mercedes in the middle of a Melbourne avenue.
