Cheryl Cole's debut solo single is to premiere on the Radio 1 breakfast show next week.
Aled Haydn Jones - producer of The Chris Moyles Show - posted on his Twitter page: "Just heard Cheryl Cole's new song! Oh my God I love it. We have the first play on Monday at 8am."
He later added: "It's not as pop as I'd expected."
However, Jones did not reveal the title of the single or any further details about its release.
Cole is believed to have recorded songs with will.i.am, Xenomania and Taio Cruz for her as-yet-untitled solo album.

Abbie

Oh right, since when have they been on a break?

Bryan
04-09-2009, 16:47
i dunno what she will sound like on her own, its going to be well weird hearing her alone, i didn't think of her little "you're a heart breaker" bit on will.i.am's single.

Thats how the breakups start.. one or two of them do some solo stuff and then before you know it, the group has split up only to have reunion tour in about 10 years when solo careers have crashed

Oh right, since when have they been on a break?just since they finished with the last album

Cheryl Cole has announced details of her long-awaited single and album.
The Girls Aloud singer will release Three Words - her first album as a solo artist - on October 26.
An email sent to members of Girls Aloud's fan club reads: "Cheryl has written the majority of the album herself and has been working with will.i.am, whom she previously left 'heartbroken', as well as Syence (Beyoncé), Fraser T Smith (James Morrison) and Soulshock and Karlin (Kelly Rowland)."
Three Words will be preceded by the single 'Fight For This Love' on October 19.
As revealed (http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/a175595/cheryl-cole-single-to-premiere-next-week.html) earlier this week, 'Fight For This Love' is to premiere on the Radio 1 Breakfast Show this Monday.

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 11:35
She must be pretty busy if shes been doing this as well as X Factor.

i think it's going to be quite good actually. wonder if simon will let her peform it on the x factor!

Hannelene
05-09-2009, 13:39
I think as Cheryl is still in the industry and part of a band Simon may let her perform but in the next breath he may not as I don't think he rates Girls Aloud singing abilities

Just in general not people on here I just wondered why some people knock Cheryl all the time. I think she is ok, trying to make a career away from the group and forge a name for herself

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 17:57
A lot of people always have the incident with the toilet attendant in their minds

Hannelene
05-09-2009, 17:58
Oh yes that incident but that was ages ago

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 18:00
She seems alright to me although obviously none of us know her in person :)

Hannelene
05-09-2009, 18:01
Thats how I find her no one is perfect

Bryan
05-09-2009, 18:28
i love Cheryl! :heart: she's amazing and seems lovely :)

Hannelene
05-09-2009, 18:30
I think she has learnt her lesson since she went to court for assault she has grown up a little

Bryan
05-09-2009, 18:34
I think she has learnt her lesson since she went to court for assault she has grown up a little

as i see it she was young, had just experienced fame and money for the first time and probably had a belly full of booze when whatever happened went on. we dont even know the full story, maybe the toilet attendant wasn't entirely innocent in the whole matter.

but as you say she has got over that, won the publics hearts and got a big fanbase now, i think also the way she handled Ashely's affair has done her a lot of favours, she didnt dump him, take his money and slag him off like Jordan, she worked at her marraige and forgive him

go Cheryl! :D :cheer: :heart:

05-09-2009, 18:42
Why do so many people dislike Cheryl?

I don't dislike her as such, I just think she is really overhyped. She's a pretty face and adds to the image of The X Factor, but I wouldn't say she is overly talented. She seems like a nice woman now, casting aside the whole toilet attendant incident.

It's just when I hear words like "Cheryl's a genius" or "she's the nation's princess" where I really, really cringe. I'd call someone like Shakespeare a genius, not a talent show judge.

The "nation's princess" comment makes out like the whole nation loves her, when that isn't the case.

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 18:44
the nations princess :rotfl: haha now that is going a bit far, who said that?

DaVeyWaVey
05-09-2009, 18:48
I don't know where it came from originally, but I've heard lots of people over on the DS forums use it. It is completely ridiculous if she is described as the nation's princess.

She is I will say she is more popular then Amanda Holden

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 23:48
where does Amanda Holden come into it haha

Hannelene
05-09-2009, 23:50
Only as Amanda is a judge on BGT and from the way the X factor is going a show with a similar format.

Chris_2k11
05-09-2009, 23:59
Im not a big fan of Amanda!

Hannelene
06-09-2009, 00:01
I find Amanda to be insincere and sometimes a little OTT with the tears - but her stylist did chose some nice dresses for the BGT show

I had very low expectations and was expecting to dislike it but I have to say I quite like it. It's an easy listen. Her vocals probably aren't up to scratch but she has the image and it's a nice tune to boot, so she will do well.

Her credibility may be damaged if she chooses to "sing" it live on The X Factor though.

Chris_2k11
07-09-2009, 14:19
Im not sure about this at all, its a really good song but her vocals on it are completely average. Her voice just doesn't sound good enough to be honest.

Cheryl Cole has admitted that keeping up with the demands of her appearance is a "full-time job".

The Girls Aloud star confessed that she is forced to work hard on her look so that she isn't "caught out", Angry Ape reports.

"Looking like 'Cheryl' is a full-time job for me," she said. "From the moment I step outside my front door - even if it's just to go to the supermarket - I'm working.

"So looking good and not being caught out can be very consuming."

Cole added: "Sometimes I can be so busy, I'll totally forget to shave my armpits and will suddenly notice and think, 'Oops!'"

The 26-year-old will release her first solo single 'Fight For This Love' on October 19. Her debut album Three Words follows on October 26.

X Factor judge Cheryl Cole will reportedly mime her debut single when she performs it on the show at the weekend.

The Girls Aloud singer, who releases her first solo album later this month, will sing only parts of the song live and her entire performance will be pre-recorded earlier in the day, reports the Daily Mail.

An X Factor insider told the paper: "Cheryl is the break-out star of Girls Aloud and there are big plans for her. Nobody - either on the X Factor nor her record label Polydor - wants to see her fail, which is why we thought it was better for Cheryl to mime her performance."

Yesterday it was confirmed that her performance would be pre-recorded ahead of the live results show to ensure she can 'fully continue with her judging commitments' on the programme.

However, anyone who remembers her performance, with the rest of Girls Aloud, on last year's series may question her real motives for not singing live. On that occasion a visibly nervous Cheryl struggled to hit the notes and fellow judge Simon Cowell jokingly called it 'a little bit pitchy' afterwards.

Cheryl Cole's debut solo single 'Fight For This Love' is on course to be the fastest-selling single of the year so far.

According to midweek sales, the song shifted 134,000 copies in just 24 hours and has surpassed first day sales of Alexandra Burke's number one 'Bad Boys' last week.

Burke sold a total of 187,100 copies of her single over the seven-day period, making it the current fastest seller of the year.

"This will be second successive week of massive single sales - led by Cheryl. Her first days sales are just amazing and put her in pole position to top the Official Singles Chart on Sunday," Official Charts Company's Martin Talbot said.

"Together with Alexandra Burke, she is likely to set the sales standard by which everyone will be judged for the rest of the year, in the run-up to Christmas."

More than 14 million viewers tuned in to watch Cole perform the track on The X Factor on Sunday.

Cole releases her debut solo album Three Words on Monday.

Cheryl Cole denies No.1-to-be Fight For This Love is a 'rip-off' of a Kelis song

Cheryl Cole might be well on her way to securing her first number one solo single, but music fans have raised doubts about the originality of her track.
The Girls Aloud singer’s Fight For This Love, which she performed on last Sunday's X Factor, is the top track on iTunes and expected to topple Alexandra Burke's Bad Boys this weekend.
But music fans and even professional music reviewers have pointed out that the melody of the song’s verse - and the beat underneath - are almost identical to the 2007 hit Lil Star, by American-born Kelis, which reached No.3.


Cheryl's people knocked down the allegations today but some who have listened to the two songs back-to-back on sites such as YouTube say that until the chorus kicks in, the two tracks seem to be catchily similar.

One, calling herself Ali1998, wrote: 'It was the first thing I thought of when I heard it and ran off to play Lil Star immediately to everyone in the room.
'My daughter exclaimed, "it’s exactly the same!" I wonder if she realises this or it’s subliminal.'
Another, Chief Wahoo, said: 'I had no idea that it was even Cheryl Cole. But Lil Star by Kelis just kept going through my head.'
An anonymous poster added: 'Pretty much the entire song is a re-sampled version of Lil Star, just with new lyrics and a dancey break.'

Freelance music reviewer Alex Macpherson told the Mail Online that he agreed that the two tracks were alike.

He added: 'It has the same chord progression as K-Ci and Jojo's 'All My Life' too.

'It is kind of a generic mishmash of better R 'n' B songs. Plus Cheryl is no Kelis vocally - it is thin and characterless rather than soulful and husky.'

But many Cheryl fans have leapt to her defence, and argued that any similarities were slight.

'DennisHxC' said: 'It's not the same song, period. It's impossible nowadays to make an absolute unique song because practically everything has been done already.'
And another, calling himself Chunkyboyskinny, said: 'Its not really Cheryl that's copied this - the beat sounds similar but that's to do with the producer.'
Cheryl’s spokesman today defended the accusations, saying: 'There are no similarities.'
The song was written by American Andre Merritt, who has previously worked with Rihanna.

But the accusations will still sting Cheryl, as her debut single was already attacked for 'borrowing' ideas from other artists.

Cheryl Cole may be rocketing to Number One on the British pop charts with what looks set to become the biggest selling single of 2009 but it's not all solo joy in the mock Tudor mansion of this particular footballer's wife. Because "Fight For This Love", the song which is currently taking the UK by storm, today stands accused of being a rip-off of a 2007 track from Kelis, entitled "Lil Star".

In the aftermath of her explosive and contentious "live" performance on this weekend's "X-Factor", music fans have been up-in-arms online about the apparent similarities. Joining the furore, Ali1998 insisted: "It was the first thing I thought of when I heard it and ran off to play ‘Lil Star' immediately to everyone in the room. My daughter exclaimed: ‘It's exactly the same!'" Chief Wahoo wrote: "I had no idea that it was even Cheryl Cole. But ‘Lil Star' by Kelis just kept going through my head", while an anonymous poster insisted: "Pretty much the entire song is a re-sampled version of ‘Lil Star', just with new lyrics and a dancey break".

But it doesn't end there. Oh no. Other allegations about Cole's solo bow are aimed squarely at the video. Some claim a tiled wall featured at one point is a direct steal from Dannii Minogue's "Put The Needle On", while others suggest her outfits have been variously pinched from Lady GaGa and dismal "X-Factor" girl band/pole-dancing troupe Kandy Rain. In an age when producers are working across acts on an international remit, Cheryl's people are adamant the musical allegations are a non-story. "There are no similarities", said a spokesman, despite the almost identikit melody line.

Cheryl Cole's solo debut has become the fastest-selling single of the year.

'Fight For This Love' sold more than 290,000 copies in its first week on release to beat 2009's previous seven-day best - set by Alexandra Burke's 'Bad Boys' last week - by over 100,000 units.

"I'm just getting over the fact I have recorded my solo record and now it's number one," Cole told the Official Chart Company. "I can't take this all in. It's hard for me to put into words how I feel. I have this permanent smile on my face."

Behind Cole, Burke's 'Bad Boys' slips to two, while Chipmunk's 'Oopsy Daisy' holds steady at three.

Meanwhile, Whitney Houston climbs from 14 to five with 'Million Dollar Bill' following her performance on The X Factor last week.

Young Soul Rebels - a collective featuring Tinchy Stryder, Pixie Lott and N-Dubz among others - debut at ten with 'I Got Soul', a single released in aid of the War Child charity.

The top ten singles in full:

1. (-) Cheryl Cole: 'Fight For This Love'
2. (1) Alexandra Burke ft. Flo Rida: 'Bad Boys'
3. (3) Chipmunk: 'Oopsy Daisy'
4. (2) Robbie Williams: 'Bodies'
5. (14) Whitney Houston: 'Million Dollar Bill'
6. (4) Taio Cruz: 'Break Your Heart'
7. (6) Black Eyed Peas: 'I Gotta Feeling'
8. (5) Jay-Z ft. Alicia Keys: 'Empire State Of Mind'
9. (9) Michael Bublé: 'Haven't Met You Yet'
10. (-) Young Soul Rebels: 'I Got Soul'

Olly Murs and Jamie Archer have performed a cover of Cheryl Cole's number one single 'Fight For This Love'.

The duo, who are in Simon Cowell's Over-25s category, have been filmed playing the track at the X Factor house.

"We are going to do a live lounge. This is going to be a new version of 'Fight For This Love' by Cheryl Cole. This is for you Cheryl," says Murs. Archer plays acoustic guitar on the track and joins Murs for the chorus and backing vocals.

Midway through the performance, Murs changes the lyrics to: "We're sitting here in the Over-25s room, chilling out with Cheryl Cole... outside there's loads of fans screaming, 'We love the Afro man'."

Archer also attempts to imitate the dance routine Cole performed on The X Factor results show two weeks ago.

X Factor continues next Saturday on ITV1, when the final nine contestants will be performing with a Rock Week theme.

Girls Aloud singer and X Factor judge Cheryl Cole has achieved double chart success with her debut solo single and album both reaching number one.

Her song Fight For This Love held onto the lead in the singles chart for a second week and remains the fastest-selling track of the year so far.

Now her debut album 3 Words has entered the chart in the top spot, beating This Is It, the new Michael Jackson release.

The Official UK Charts Company said it was a "fabulous achievement" for Cole.

Spokesman Martin Talbot said: "3 Words now looks set to be one of the biggest albums of this coming Christmas."

Cole held onto number one in the singles chart despite new entries from Westlife - who reached number two with What About Now - and Jay Sean.

To reach the top of the album chart she knocked off last year's X Factor winner Alexandra Burke.

This Is It, the soundtrack to the new film about Jackson's final concert series, was a new entry at number three.

Cheryl Cole has reportedly signed a deal to release her solo album 3 Words in the United States.

The record, which is currently at number one in the UK, is expected to be released through Interscope early next year.

According to the News Of The World, Cole will release her collaboration with Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am, '3 Words', as the first single Stateside.

"The Interscope deal is huge for Cheryl, especially as Girls Aloud have never released a single there," a source told the newspaper.

Interscope Records, which is owned by Universal Music Group, is home to acts including Black Eyed Peas, Enrique Iglesias, Lady GaGa and Pussycat Dolls.

Cole's debut solo single 'Fight For This Love' became the fastest-selling single of the year in the UK after shifting over 290,000 copies in its first week.

Cheryl Cole has just landed herself the best-ever mentor - apparently Jay-Z wants to help launch our favourite Northener’s career in the States. According to The Daily Mirror, Cheryl hit it off with Jay- Z’s wife Beyonce when she appeared on The X Factor last year and now Jay-Z is keen to help her become a huge international star. And as if that's not enough good news for Cheryl, her debut album, 3 Words, has also gone platinum in the UK.

I think that her whole album is rubbish. She is an over-hyped, well marketed barbie from a talent show.

Is this the same Cheryl Tweedy who was arrested for punching someone in the ladies toilets of some nightclub a few years ago?

Who made her the 'Nation's Sweetheart'?

I cannot stand her.
