Nicole Scherzinger unwittingly took centre stage as she rolled into Middlesbrough wearing a rather racy biker outfit on Tuesday morning.
The former Pussycat Doll, 34, looked on fire as she slipped her svelte body into some leathers and jumped on a motorbike.
The wild one: Nicole Scherzinger looks super cool and extremely sultry in her set of leather boots and matching jacket and trousers as she arrived in Middlesbrough with James Arthur on Tuesday
Born to ride: James Arthur arrived back in his native Middlesbrough to film scenes for X Factor with Nicole Scherzinger, on Tuesday
Both her and James had been driven to the north England town on the back of Harley Davidson's so James could thank his homegrown supporters.
Unfortunately for Arthur, Nicole's hot look was a big enough hit to take the majority of attention away from him.
Scherzinger looked great in a all black outfit that showed off both her style and amazing figure.

She wore a pair of knee-high boots that she teamed with a pair of slim fit leather trousers and a super cool matching jacket.
To battle the cold northern weather she also wore a thick black wool jumper but added a sense of Hollywood by sporting sunglasses.
Nicole was clearly loving her time on the back of the motorbike as she threw her arms up in the air as they rode.
James and his mentor ex-Pussycat Doll Nicole left the Best Western Hotel in Marton, Middlesbrough this morning to embark on a tour of the sights of James' hometown of Saltburn.
Welcome home: The support shown for James was huge and he clearly relished the attention
The right look: Nicole was more than happy to stop and sign autographs and have her picture taken with fans
The pair were greeted by hundreds of fans waving 'Vote for James' signs and hoping for a glimpse of their X-Factor favourite.
James, 24, had planned to show Nicole around his hometown in style on matching black Harley Davidson motorbikes.
But embarrassingly after James' bike appeared to stall, three men in black suits rushed to his aid to give him a push start.
James eventually did get to meet and greet some of his fans but naturally, they were also very interested in meeting Nicole.

Friend Kieran Shane said: 'I've known him for about five or six years and I always knew he was destined for success.
'He's got charisma, he's got charm, he's got talent and he's a joy to be around.
'It's a Cinderella story, a rags to riches story, and it's the best.'
After visiting a few sites in his home town, Arthur will play at Middlesbrough Town Hall tonight.
Big deal: The X Factor finalists joined Prime Minister David Cameron as they performed and then turned on the Christmas tree lights
It's been a busy week for Nicole, who also has Jahmene in the final, as she took both boys to turn on the lights of the Christmas tree outside Number 10 Downing Street on Monday.
Joined by Prime Minister David Cameron the X Factor finalists performed a song before lighting up the tree.
Meanwhile, Christopher Maloney's 'X Factor' votes have stunned producers.
Finalist Chris Maloney, pictured with David Cameron, has been gaining support and votes throughout the country
The controversial hopeful's success in the competition has bosses mystified as they originally thought he must've been given a boost by the regional Liverpool vote, but official figures show he is gaining support throughout the country.
A source told The Sun newspaper: 'It's like nothing we've ever seen.
'When Irish singer Mary Byrne was on the show, the Irish vote was keeping her in. But with Christopher, everyone is voting for him.'
