    What the hell is wrong with her either being from or how you put it "belongs in" a council estate.. So what??? does that mean shes not allowed improve herself or be famous?

    seriously, some stuck up gob****es on here..


    I agree with you completely! All this judging someone over who they are or where they are from is ridiculous!
    I actually hate all this glorification of celebrities and the fixation people have of who they are and where they're from.. whether they're thin or fat or orange or pale!

    Is she doing an honest day's work? Yes. Is she entertaining? Yes.

    So what else matters!?

    ye.. aswell, some one called her talentless. Is this jealousy or something because Im pretty sure she is/was the head singer of Girls Aloud. Dont have any facts about how well the group done, but I certainly do remember alot of singles going number one with Cheryl as head singer? correct me if Im wrong????


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭JP Liz


    Cole said Victoria Beckham was an idiot for taking back David after his affair and that she couldnt do that - yet now she has

    hypocrite

    Victoria and David have children which of course would factor in any descision

    Well it's her own business! You can't judge her when you don't know all the circumstances! Nobody knows what goes on behind closed doors!
    Well anybody that releases an Autobiography in their mid twenties is obviously an attention whore and is thereby leaving every aspect of their life open to scrutiny and judgement.

    If by "Head Singer" you mean "Worst Singer" well then yes she is the "Head Singer"

    Oh come on all girl bands and boy bands release books! It's a book about the band with all their own inputs! It's all band based with "where they were before" Nothing really personal! They've been going for nearly 7 years so I don't see the big deal in having a book!!!

    She isn't the worst singer.. in my opinion she's second to Nicola who would be the best singer!! It's the Sarah one I don't like.. I know she has a rep of being drunk constantly but she goes on about "being sober" in every interview she's on!! Now she's the attention seeking one!!

    Why has Aphex Twin never had a number one single? Lack of talent?

    I dont know lol, you tell me??

    because he does some electro dance crap that alot of people dont listen to.. see its easy to put people down... dont understand why people do it though. :confused:

    why didnt *insert some other band/group/artist/DJ??? who is at the top of their game* get a number 1?
    I think alot of the bitchiness towards people like cheryl cole is down to jealousy and i can nearly see it in some of the posts lol, I can only speak for myself here, but anyone who, coming from a less well off background, does VERY well for themselves is a great thing and i just find it sad seeing people having a go at them to make them feel a little better.. just an observation, not directed at any particular person


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,778 ✭✭✭✭Kold


    Well my point is that Cheryl Coles musical talent is infitisimal compared to Mr James. It's not her talent that gets her to number one, is that hot ass of hers. And the fact that pop music is not about talent.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,712 ✭✭✭neil_hosey


    see thats where the whole thing of difference in opinion come in. I actually think any kind of electronic music requires very little natural talent, and PERSONALLY that any kind of electro dance music is rubbish. But I dont go around slating these DJ's because I don't like what they do or think that they should have any kind of fame..

    there are alot of good looking women in this world, if it was all about looks how come better looking women than cheryl cole havent done as well as her? She can obviously sing, are you denying shes not a great singer? Didnt she win some competition like X factor to get into Girls Aloud??

    Dont know really how I got into this conversation actually because I dont listen to pop music, but its not the groups or bands in pop music that are in the wrong is it? is it their fault for using what they have to make a few quid? NO.. but you, for some reason try to blame cheryl cole for the short comings of some DJ.. im fairly baffled and prob best I dont comment on this anymore.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 474 ✭✭john concannon


    Some people here need to loosen up. Most of the posters are slating her as a scumbag from Newcastle with no talent. Unfair but I can see where they come from. With that reasoning is everybody who has had bad luck financially and only current means of housing a scumbag?

    She is a gorgeous woman with the world at her feet. Maybe some people think of her as a WAG. I agree with this but she is obviously somebody who wants to respect her vows to marriage or afraid to move on.

    I don't mind Girls Aloud TBH. I won't pretend that I'm cool by slating them for having no talent compared to Radiohead or U2 but Pop is a lot easier to be sucessful in then non-mainstream genres.

    Verdict: Cheryl is a troubled young woman who is trying to fix her life and be sucessful. At least she isn't covering up these problems like other celebs

    Nadine Coyle is the main/lead/best singer of Girls Aloud

    I dont mind Cheryl but she comes across very hypocritial in some interviews - she also needs to put on some weight she looks too unhealthy at the moment

    That's not actually an opinion. It's just a false statement. You can say that you don't like the music but saying that the artist in question isn't talented is just plain wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,591 ✭✭✭✭Aidric


    Most stuff Cowell touches turns to gold so I'm sure he'll see her well.

    lol ok - youve dodged the points i made.

    If i think that guy doesnt have talent. THAT IS AN OPINION!

    You can return to putting people down to make you feel better cas i wont be posting again on this, i wasnt going to before this but i couldnt resist.

    It's not an opinion, Jesus, it's like saying Australia is actually on the moon, it's just retarded. I didn't address your points because they were idiotic. I wasn't putting Cheryl Cole down, I was merely pointing out that it doesn't take talent to get to number one in the charts. So using the charts as a measure for talent is stupid. Shortcomings of some DJ? This producer is generally regarded as one of the most important musicians alive, probably one of the most innovative musicians to ever live. It's quite clear that you haven't an iota what you're talking about. "I don't like electronic music" is not a valid argument in this case.

    As for a great singer? I wouldn't regard her so, sure she can sing, probably around the 15th percentile but greats? Arethra Franklin? Edith Piaf? No, she's not a great singer. She's fairly hot, I like 'em skinny, she can string a few notes together but in any way relevant as an artist, no.

    No doubt this again will fly above your head and you'll respond with 'anyone can have whatever opinion they want' but some things are just wrong.

    Kold, careful now. Tone it down a little please.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭JP Liz


    If rumours are true Simon wants to help launch Cheryl in the US maybe as a judge on America's Got Talent (Sharon O is a judge there also) but she could have problems getting a work visa as she has a criminal record :D

    she tops another poll

    X Factor judge Cheryl Cole has been voted the celebrity with the most perfectly applied make-up - and achieving the look women would like to copy.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 33,180 CMod ✭✭✭✭ShamoBuc


    What are the odds that she actually applies her own make-up?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,212 ✭✭✭Affable


    I don't like Lily Allen much as she is a poilt girl who tries to be 'street'.
    Cheryl Cole is just horrendous though. What sheer soulless evil. Reminds me of Heather Mills slightly.

    Girls Aloud songbird Cheryl Cole has been named the sexiest woman of 2009 by FHM men’s mag


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭JP Liz


    Her style is copied by women around the country - and now Cheryl Cole has landed a deal to front beauty brand L'Oreal Paris.

    The X Factor judge will represent the company in the UK and her first campaign will be promoting a hair product called Elvive Full Restore 5, which will hit the shops next month.

    Cole, 26, who won a place in Girls Aloud by appearing on Popstars: The Rivals, graced the cover of British Vogue in February.

    She said: "I have always loved the brand and have always wanted to say the iconic phrase: 'Because you're worth it', so to be given that opportunity is absolutely amazing."

    L'Oreal Paris general manager Gayle Tait said: "Cheryl is a glamorous, stylish and talented young woman whose warmth and charm has captivated the nation and helped to establish her as an inspiration to women throughout the UK."


    :p

    Taken word-for-word from the press release. Just once I wish some journalists would show a bit of initiative and re-word the release... :rolleyes:

    Fair play to her, she's raking it in.

    I think Cheryl is an absolute belter. She has lost a lot of weight in the last year though, probably a tad too much.
    On a related note I would love to terminate the life of that rat Ashley Cole.

    I think she's more pretty than sexy (there's a difference), but then I'm not a man and don't read FHM. She's gone way too skinny, anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 336 ✭✭MelonieHead


    I recently spent a grand total of 11 hours over a two day period in a hairdressers. If I see that woman's face one time I will rip it off! :mad:

    (Not the actual woman, just the endless barrage of pictures.)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1 hawaii5o


    Then again half of todays celebs have humble beginnings, rags to riches... you could say the same for a load of rappers too, with 'council estate' backgrounds but nobody gives them hassle for it.. 'jumped up pond scum' is a tad harsh..the girls no whitney houston, but if you look up her first audition she can sing, and shes been dancing since she was a kid and its not just luck that keeps you in the game this long and so successfully... she knows her niche and you have to admit shes doing pretty well for herself, after x factor last year she was voted as one of britains most popular celebs (ironically her hubbie was one of the most unpopular)

    I was just flicking through this month's Cosmo at the hairdressers and apparently Cheryl Cole is the number one "Amazing, successful, kick ass woman" in the world.

    :rolleyes:

    The girl is hot without a doubt, but why is she suddenly the best thing since sliced bread?

    Everything she does is mediocre imo

    Also, the Geordie accent is a bit harsh isn't it? "Because ye're weeeerth it" doesn't sound that pleasant ;)

    Like half the population of Tallaght?

    Shes a skanger granted, but dont confuse the two.

    Actually, ironically enough Allen is a bigger scobie but from a seemingly wealthier upbringing/area.

    Let me remind you, there are more private estates in Tallaght than council, Take out Killinarden, Jobstown, fettercairn, Brookfield, tymon North, the rest are private estates.... Yes if we had our way those estates would be gone, but unfortunely we cant...Let me also remind you also, There are million times worse estates in DUblin....The Northside...Take your pick

    You may be from a "scobie"area (whatever that means) but let me remind you, Tallaght has a population of 140,000 people with 4 bad estate , please refrain from tarnishing us all with the same brush.... We are all not from council areas. And like myself a large amont of us are well educated.

    This thread has absolutley nothing to do with Tallaght or what issues you may have about how people perceive it. You've taken one comment made a while ago and jumped on it. Please do not take it off topic or bring this up again.

    Have you some kind of point to make?

    I said Cheryl reminded me of the kind of girls who wear orange tan and have bleached blonde hair with the dress she wore on the final night. The picture is an example of the type of girls i'm talking about.

    Oh and it's not Knocklyon, it's Ashington.

    It's not even my personal taste in music but I reckon it's a decent song. Her voice has possibly been enhanced, but not to the ridiculous levels of the likes of Kanye West. If she has the confidence she could pull this off live no bother.

    I like Cheryl but the ad is a lil hard to understand with her accent and I usually have no problem understanding her.

    I had to listen to it a few times before I understood that she was saying "found the answer to our hair prayers" (or something along those lines, can't remember the exact words).

    If she cant pull this off live - someone should retire her.
    Rubbish lyrics. Rubbish vid. Totally forgetable from a pretty mediocre singer.
    But she is indeed very beautiful since she got her teeth straightened and whitened and the extensions in and all that .... oh to have a personal trainer/chef and all her money to spend... I have gotten a better song :rolleyes:
    (having a bad day :o)
