Pussycat Doll Takes on

Neil Patrick Harris's production of Rent opened at the Hollywood Bowl this weekend, and while several critics have questioned his casting of High School Musical's Vanessa Hudgens as Mimi, the show's big surprise is Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger as bisexual performance artist Maureen.

Watch at Scherzinger takes on Broadway belter Tracie Thoms (as her lover Joanne) in the showstopper "Take Me or Leave Me."
