Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough: Dangerous Dancers

Taking a break from their strenuous training schedule, Nicole Scherzinger and Derek Hough were spotted grabbing lunch in Los Angeles, California on Friday afternoon (March 12).

Dressed in a bright pink tracksuit, the "Pussycat Dolls" darling led the way as her dancer/choreographer mate followed along.

The sighting comes following reports that Nicole accidentally kicked Derek in the face during a morning training session, leaving him with a cut on his face.

According to Access Hollywood, Hough confirmed the reports - telling that Scherzinger "barely missed his right eye" during the incident.

Nonetheless, the pair is pushing forward, as they'll be competing against the likes of Pamela Anderson, Jake Pavelka, Kate Gosselin and Shannen Doherty when Season 10 premieres on March 22nd.
