There was a treat in store for The X Factor: Celebrity viewers last night.
Not only was the winner crowned, but fans were also treated to a surprise Pussycat Dolls reunion – the first time the girls have taken to the stage together for 10 years.
And they certainly came back with a bang with fans stunned at Nicole Scherzinger’s choice of racy outfit, with some branding it ‘inappropriate’.
Nicole, 41, had been sitting comfortably in the judge’s seats, where eventually she, Louis Walsh and Simon Cowell voted TOWIE star Megan McKenna as the winner of the competition.
NO ONE CAN DO IT BETTER!

But a quick costume change saw Nicole performing on stage with Ashley Roberts, 38, Kimberly Wyatt, 37, Carmit Bachar, 45, and Jessica Sutta, 37.
Melody Thornton, 35, was not present.
You don’t have to take your clothes [off] to be successful.
The ladies wowed the studio audience and viewers at home, with Nicole wearing a PVC bikini with a sheer bodysuit.
It wasn’t long before viewers took to Twitter to register their shock at Nicole and the band’s choice of racy outfits.

“How many Ofcom complaints will there be for the Pussycat Dolls?” another asked.
The outfits the #pussycatdolls are wearing on #XFactorCelebrity are totally inappropriate for 8.15pm on a family show. Not good role models for girls. You don't have to take your clothes to be successful.

Some viewers, who were watching with their kids, worried that the outfits were not appropriate for that time of night.
“The outfits the Pussycat Dolls are wearing on The X Factor: Celebrity re totally inappropriate for 8.15pm on a family show,” one wrote.
“Not good role models for girls.
