Nicole Scherzinger set pulses racing as she sports leather coat dress (and not much else) for London X Factor auditions
The fashion wars on The X Factor have truly begun.
And sizzling judge Nicole Scherzinger has crushed all competition by rocking up to the latest auditions in London in an incredibly sexy outfit.
The former Pussycat Doll, 34, got lustful singing hopefuls in a frenzy of excitement by wearing a tiny trench coat and little else as she arrived at the ExCeL Centre.

Sizzling Scherzy: Nicole Scherzinger stood out from her fellow judges as The X Factor auditions arrived in London on Wednesday
Injecting a high dosage of sex appeal into the judging panel, Nicole smouldered in a leather trench which she teamed with a sexy pair of red and gold heels.
The Wet singer certainly made for a sexy sight as she prepared to listen to countless auditionees wail through the beginning stage of the competition.
'I had so much fun and such a great experience on the show last year – it far exceeded all my expectations!' the star said when it was confirmed she would return to the show after her category won last year's show.
She smoulders! The former Pussycat Doll was just stunning as she took to the X Factor red carpet
What's beneath the coat? Nicole's teasing outfit allows the imagination to believe that she is wearing nothing under her coat
Hello everyone: Nicole arrived in her private car - and it would seem she had been reading OK! and GQ magazines during her commute
'I always give 110% to all I do and I put everything else on hold to focus on X Factor and supporting my Scherzy boys,' she continued.
'This year, now that I’ve worked out doing my new music and the show together, I am so excited to get back to the UK, my second home, and get stuck into X Factor 2013!'
Fellow female judge Sharon Osbourne looked like she may have raided one of husband Ozzy's outfits for this round of auditions.

Standing out in the crowd, the 60-year-old music expert gave a bit of Goth glam to the X Factor red carpet in a black suit with pointed orange heels.
'I couldn’t be happier about coming back for the 10th anniversary of X factor,' Sharon said when it was revealed she would be making a triumphant return to the judging panel.
'I can’t wait to give Gary Barlow a big hug, sit next to the gorgeous Nicole, and of course throw water on dear Louis. Yay!'
X-cited? Sharon has been quite vocal about how much she is looking forward to returning to judge on the singing show

While Sharon is thrilled to be returning to The X Factor, her husband Ozzy has recently opened up about his own TV career - making suggestion that he regrets appearing on The Osbournes on MTV earlier this century.
'That was a period of my career that I’m f***ing glad is gone,’ the 64-year-old told Classic Rock on his reality TV days.
‘Sharon’s turned into this television person now. And she’s great. But she’s always saying to me: “You are coming to the show, aren’t you?” And I’m going. “No! I f***ing hate doing TV!” I didn’t start off playing music to be the fucking weatherman".'
Hey handsome: Gary Barlow is back for a third round of X Factor fun
Gary Barlow is returning for his third round of The X Factor and will continue to serve as head judge on the hit ITV show - looking hunky for this round of auditions in a deep navy blue polo shirt, black jeans, and well worn boots.
'It's great to be back for the 10-year anniversary of X Factor and my third year with the show,' he said earlier this year.
'This year is looking to be our best yet! To have a winner like James Arthur last year was a big game changer; I really hope that his authenticity and credibility will attract acts of a similar talent this series and I'm very excited about that.'
What a hunk: Gary looked highly desirable even in his casual wear as he headed to watch some potentially awful auditions

And of course no X Factor year would be complete without Louis Walsh.
'I'm back with a vengeance!' the 60-year-old said earlier this year - the only judge to have survived every season of the show to remain on the panel (excluding a brief disappearance in series 3)
'Ten years on and I'm just as thrilled to be involved in the best show on TV and even more delighted to be re-united with original judge Sharon Osbourne. Let the fun and games commence!'

Is that waterproof? Louis looked delightful in a purple hue blazer - but he might need to duck if Sharon throws water at him
And of course sister show The Xtra Factor is capturing all the fun and scandal that can't make it onto the main show.
Co-hosts Caroline Flack, 33, and Matt Richardson, 22, were on hand to talk to contestants and keep the judges in check.
Caroline looked a delight in a pair of black shorts, a corresponding black top, and white blazer.

Change up: Caroline is back to present The Xtra Factor, but Ollie Murs is not
She also wore cute black strappy shoes and had a bright lip and her hair slightly disheveled and sexy.
Plucked from obscurity, Xtra Factor co-host Matt is on course to be a new TV heartthrob.
Rocking up to the audition, the comedian looked dapper in a light blue blazer, black jeans, white shirt and white shoes - suggesting he's already got his wardrobe down for the competition that will see him on screens from August to Christmas.
New on-screen couple: Caroline is instead joined by up-and-coming comedian Matt Richardson who scrubbed up well for the London auditions
