Nicole Scherzinger shows her curves in a sparkling backless dress

Nicole Scherzinger, 36, was said to have been given a standing ovation at the end of her solo Memories in the role of Grizabella, Daily Mail reported.

Day after Nicole was spotted sharing a warm embrace with Elaine Paige, the original Grizabella, who, if her huge smile is anything to go by, was clearly a big fan of Nicole's performance. 

Nicole looked utterly delighted to compare notes with Elaine before she later slipped into a sexy backless dress to celebrate at the afterparty.
