Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber has slammed Nicole Scherzinger for pulling out of Cats on Broadway at the last minute as he confirmed she is set to return to the UK X Factor.

Talking to Anne McElvoy, from The Economist, he said he was ‘furious’ with the singer for letting him down.

He said: ‘A week before we were due to go into rehearsals with Cats, which luckily I’m not producing I have to say, she calls me and says she’s decided to do X Factor, having agreed to it.

‘She’s crazy, but the American producers took a view of, “Oh fine, we’ll get someone else.” She’s actually not that well known in America. She’s better known here.

‘I’m furious because I really believe she’s the most fantastically brilliant girl and I went out on a limb to get her at the Palladium and now I look like an absolute twot with them all.’

Adding: ‘ Nevermind, there will be another girl on Broadway and Nicole will not get her Tony Award.
