Scherzinger was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to a Filipino father and a Hawaiian/Russian mother. She grew up in Louisville, Kentucky with stepfather Gary Scherzinger, mother Rosemary and sister Ke’ala. She has


described her upbringing as “conservative Catholic”.[1] She began her life as a performer in Louisville, attending the Youth Performing Arts School at duPont Manual High School and performing with Actors Theatre of Louisville. Scherzinger majored in theater arts at Wright State University, but put her studies on hold in 1999 to sing backing vocals for the rock band Days of the New.

In 2001, she competed in the premiere season of The WB’s television show Popstars, on which she earned a spot in the all-girl pop group Eden’s Crush. The group’s 2001 single “Get Over Yourself” peaked at #1 in sales and hit the top ten on Billboard Hot 100. “Love This Way” was the second single chosen from the Popstars album; however, their record company, London-Sire Records, folded and the group eventually disbanded.
