Note
  1. Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Nicole Scherzinger is an American singer, actress, and television personality who has received multiple awards and nominations across music, theater, and television. In 2025 she was included in the annual Time 100 list of the most influential people in the world.
