Yet here's the ironic thing in all this, she's where she is now because she was voted to win a talent competition by the public. Probably the same portion of public who vote in Big Brother.

 

I'm not for a minute suggesting she's in the same league as the likes of Lady Gaga in terms of talent, but she seems to get singled out when really there are far worse singers than her out there, Britney being one of them. She's made the most of the opportunity she's had, she's made a good load of money for herself. I get the feeling some people would prefer it if she sat in a council house in Newcastle sponging off the dole all her life.

I get the feeling she got her hairdresser to backcomb her hair, a makeup artist to paint her face, a dresser to shop in LA for an outfit.............walked out on stage ....and looked staged........

 

When Cheryl finds Cheryl....she will succeed.......

Hasn't she already?

In what?......

Having a successful career, making a huge amount of money.

Girls Aloud where successful.........As soon as peeps around her stopped making money, her "Career" dipped.............

if she is so successful, why we having this thread?

Probably as a reflection of the media interest?

Exactly.......money makers......not interested in talent...........

 

If by the time I'm 28, I've made as much money as her I'll safely come on here and say I've had a successful career so far.

 

that bloke tv fella calls her *St Biffa Of Tweedy*

anyway

i think shes a victim of the media

this country loves to build 'em up and knock 'em down

Americans find it really weird that our press do that

why DO they do that?

funny old country we live in

 

I'm not sure if she is a victim of the media. They enjoy a symbiotic relationship IMO. Happy to be part of what Karlo and his followers refer to as "Bread and Circuses!"

Money Making.......yes............But as for "Talent"...questionable......

...reporting on her desperate state

She must be traumatized.

 

Hence the Garbo 

"Media victim", my fair white arse

So she was forced to enter a telly talent show, was she? Forced to enter a devil's pact with Cowell, forced to marry a famous footie player and forced to parade herself in front of the cameras at every available opportunity?

What a load of crap.

I'll develop me own post then......... As I said before and I'm going to say it again because I liked it so much. She is in a symbiotic relationship mit the media. They feed off each other. We are all victims of this relationship. You only have to look through a publication like Private Eye to get an idea of what is occurin' out there in the real world. Grand naughtiness and wrongdoing are measured in billions and not the peanuts circulating in the world of La Cole. No wonder then that the shieght end of the scratter press would have you debating this strange world of faux celebrity. Can I quite m'pal Karlo again? "Bread and circuses!"

I agree.  And I am not really sure what 'career' she has/has had really...   She has no specific talent or skill.... and she hasn't done anything to deserve ANYthing she has got IMO.  She went into an average girl band, on her looks alone - as she is a shit singer, and she got picked (eff knows why,) to judge on X factor... why???????  She has no talent whatsoever and she is simply a mouthy chav who got lucky.  I think she is quite dreadful, and I just do not get why she has become so famous or why silly little girls are obsessed with her... That really worries me, that someone like HER and Katie chavvy Price are worshipped by young girls...  God help humanity is all I can say!

Sorry, we were talking about success weren't we? Not whether or not we think they are actually talented or not.

Blimey!

I'm not sure that I would compare the two. I think Cheryl was very lucky to get into Girls Aloud, I think Girls Aloud were lucky to get really catchy songs, and I'm not sure any of them would have had much success without the songwriters.

 

However, since she started on the X Factor, I think Cheryl has become more popular (not just with young girls), because she comes over as empathic, quite normal, and had a bit of a sense of humour, whilst sticking up for herself, especially when dealing with Simon and Louis.

 

Katie Price is a different kettle of fish altogether, IMO. 

I thought she was last seen with  her Mam, skyping will I am .... This video still makes me laugh!

I love that, zazz!
