Manolo says, the Manolo never ceases to be amazed by the shoe-spotting ability of the Manolo’s sharp-eyed internet friends.

For the example, yesterday, while preparing for the Whose Shoes Wednesday the Manolo mistakenly included this fragmentary photograph in his collection of the Lady Gaga shoes.

This is not Lady Gaga, something the Manolo in his haste to prepare the post had missed.

And yet, even though it was the single image among nearly the score, this did not prevent the Manolo’s readers from identifying to whom they belonged.

The first to do so, was the Manolo’s internet friend Jo.

Nicole Scherzinger, I think?

Followed by the more complete identification made by the sharp-eyed sharpy, Rachel Marie

Those are Pussycat Doll paws-who else wears tartan parachute pantaloons with knee high boxer boots? It is Nicole Scherzinger! She redeems herself with her other footwear choice, though. I heart you, Manolo! Kisses

And then, here is Long Island, calling the Manolo out this morning.

I love you Manolo but I think you throw a ringer photo in with this lot. I believe that photo of the young lady in plaid wearing lace-up boots is Nicole Scherzinger. However it possible that both could wear the same equally outrageous combination.

And naturally, these readers of the Manolo were exactly correct.

It was the Nicole Scherzinger!
