CHERYL COLE is the latest GIRLS ALOUD crooner to scheme for life after the
band – and she looks pretty chipper about the future.
The Geordie has been secretly plotting her solo pop assault with top producer T2. Plot partner ... T2
Chezza and the Leeds-born guru – who recently hit No2 hit with single
Heartbroken – have now synchronised their diaries to fit in studio
time to work on her material.
The feisty star is so bent on getting ahead that she kicked off last week when
he postponed recording dates with her in favour of sessions with former MIS-TEEQ
star ALESHA DIXON.
But on Monday Cheryl was all smiles as she left Nobu in Mayfair, London –
with her wedding ring missing once again – while ASHLEY was
at Stamford Bridge watching Chelsea blow their Premier League hopes.
A source said: “Cheryl and T2 have been in discussions about her
solo material. He is the man of the moment, with a lot of pop acts
clamouring for his expertise on collaborations.
“He told her she would have to hold on a bit longer because he had
commitments with Alesha – which went down like a lead balloon.
“Cheryl is keen to get cracking on new material and didn’t
want to play second fiddle to anyone else.”
It’s the latest evidence that the writing is about to appear on the
wall for Cheryl’s pop five-piece.
SARAH HARDING also has some demos tucked away which she recorded last
year with FAITHLESS mastermind ROLLO. Meanwhile, NADINE
COYLE has been telling everyone in LA who will listen that she is
available for acting work.
She has made it crystal clear she sees her future in the US.
I can’t help feeling the girls will be making a big bungle if they
go it alone, although at least Cheryl has chosen someone decent to work
with.
T2 is involved with KELLY ROWLAND, KATE NASH and NATASHA
BEDINGFIELD as well as Alesha.
Hubby ... Ashley
But she only has to turn back a few years in the pop history books to see how
poorly the SPICE GIRLS did out on their own.
It’s hard to get excited about the prospect of DANE BOWERS sitting
by the phone waiting for another Truesteppers call.
Maybe I’m wrong, but I think we are going to find out sooner rather
than later.
Who do you think will be the most successful of the Girls Aloud five when the
band split? Maybe you even fancy KIMBERLEY WALSH or NICOLA ROBERTS’
chances.
