He has made several comments defending women.
Nicole was once asked, “Did the Pussycat Dolls encourage young girls to dress like strippers?”
To which she responded: “The Pussycat Dolls were put under a lot of scrutiny, but we were a group of women, not girls, and we were empowered.
‘Our motto was “keep it bold but classy.” Our videos were not obscene in any way. The girls were professional dancers and the best at what they did.
‘I hope that’s not the main message that came out of us. We were about female empowerment and embracing who you are and having strength and confidence in that.”

Abortion
Nicole, who had a strong Catholic upbringing and whose grandfather is a priest, is pro-life.
The X Factor judge previously admitted her family is “really tough” against the sacking because her mother had her at the tender age of 18.
Her beliefs are so strong that she almost turned down the role of Penny Johnson on ABC’s Dirty Dancing TV reboot because the character undergoes an illegal abortion.
She explained to The Daily Mail: “I went crazy because my family, my dad is a bishop and my family is very against abortion.
‘So I got the role and I almost didn’t take it because I didn’t want to promote abortion, because my character has an abortion.
‘But I thought, I hope they can learn from you, you know their methods and I can be a positive influence.
‘My mom got pregnant with me when she was 17 and had me when she was 18. She chose.
‘Her parents were never going to allow her to have an abortion. So I came out, so I just want you to know how to encourage everyone to keep their babies.’
