She recently picked up an Olivier Award after she landed the Best Actress in a Musical gong for playing Norma Desmond in the hit Sunset Boulevard.
She recently told Closer magazine about the role: “It was life changing.
"The most exhausting thing in my life but the most rewarding.
"It felt like I'd won the Olympics when it was finished. It was hard work but it’s my passion and I wear my heart on sleeve. Now we're going to Broadway. It’s my dream job.
“I'm living my best life performing on stage… But would do less shows.”
Andrew Lloyd Webber, the man behind the music in Sunset Boulevard, heaped praise on Nicole and her vocal abilities ahead of the show's run at the Savoy Theatre.
He said: "Nicole is one of the finest singers I have worked with, and I can't wait to get started on this exciting show with her and the rest of this brilliant team."
After the Pussycat Dolls disbanded in 2010 Nicole launched a solo music career which saw her score five UK top 10 singles.
She made her West End debut back in 2014 when she starred as Grizabella in the musical Cats.
