Shots fired! Did Nicole Scherzinger background as a pop dancer and lead vocalist of The Pussycat Dolls (which is by definition a burlesque dance troupe) give the stunning singing star an unfair advantage in her quest for the Golden Mirrorball trophy on the 10th season of Dancing With The Stars<\/em>?<\/p>\n Niecy Nash sure thinks so!<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n The actress-comedienne has a bone with Dancing<\/em> producers over their casting of Scherzinger, who out-waltzed Olympian Evan Lysacek and ESPN’s Erin Andrews to be named DWTS<\/em> champion on Wednesday\u2019s finale. Nash would have enjoyed crowning a champ who showed progress throughout the competition. However, Nicole, as you may recall, has been hailed one of the best technical performers the show has every seen.<\/p>\n So while Nicole and pro partner Derek Hough are doing victory dances all over the Big Apple, Niecy is getting chatty about her displeasure with the whole thing.<\/p>\n \u201cI like to see the growth,\u201d<\/em> the former Clean House<\/em> host — who made it to the show’s Top 5 before being eliminated two weeks ago — spilled to PEOPLE<\/a><\/em> Thursday. \u201cNicole today is who she was when she got here \u2014 she was a great dancer and she still is.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n \u201cThere were moments you couldn\u2019t tell her from the pro dancers,\u201d<\/em> Niecy continued.<\/p>\n But is that such a bad thing? After all, DWTS<\/em> is a dancing competition. Niecy thinks casting rhythmically-inclined performers, like Nicole, defeats the purpose of a competition.<\/p>\n \u201cDancing With the Stars is something that resonates with me when the contestants have a journey. I was such a big fan of Kelly Osbourne last year because she had the most transformation,\u201d<\/em> she added. \u201cI cheer for the people who have evolved. To me, that\u2019s what the competition should be.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Shots fired!
