Scherzinger is best known as the singer behind the hit song "Don't cha" in The Pussycat Dolls in the 2000s. But now Nicole Scherzinger can call herself a musical star.
The pop star who switched to a Broadway career received the award for best actor in a musical when the Tony award was presented. The American has been praised for her performance in the new production of "Sunset blvd", based on the 1950 film.
When I was little, I always felt like I never belonged anywhere, but you have made me feel like I belong here, that I have come home, said a tearful Scherzinger as she accepted the award.
Sarah Snook was another well-known name that received an award. The Australian who played one of the main roles in the TV series "Succession" was awarded for her role in the play "The picture of Dorian Gray".
The big star of the spring on Broadway has been George Clooney, who played the main role in the theatrical version of his own film "Good night, and good luck". The role of TV journalist Edward R Murrow is the first of a major theatrical production for the film star, and many thought that Clooney would receive the award for best actor at the Tony gala.
However, it did not happen. The award went instead to Cole Escola for the play "Oh, Mary!".
