The transformation of Cheryl Cole from a chavvy teenager who punched a toilet attendant into Britain’s most glamorous woman has been fascinating. A decade ago, she was living on a council estate in Newcastle and working as a waitress, having left school at the age of 16 with few qualifications. Now, she is the “nation’s sweetheart” and is worth millions of pounds – a true ‘rags to riches’ story.

Cheryl first rose to fame in 2002, when she auditioned in front of music mogul Simon Cowell in his TV competition ‘Popstars, The Rivals’. She made it down to the last 5 girls, along with Nadine, Sarah, Kimberly and Nicola. Together, they became ‘Girls Aloud’ and went on to forge one of the most successful British girl band careers in history.

Cheryl began to pursue solo projects in 2008 collabarating with US star Will. I. Am on the song “Heartbreaker”. She then released her first solo song “Fight for this Love” which shot to number 1 in the charts, and then had great success with her debut solo album “3 Words”. She has starred in a number of adverts, including L’Oreal. This caused some controversy, because she was wearing hair extensions whilst advertising shampoo – people complained that the ad was misleading.

The final thing that thrust Cheryl into the spotlight was when she was chosen to replace Sharon Osborne on the 2008 series of X Factor as a judge. She has now completed 2 series, cementing her status as the most popular person on television. She is a fashionista and has become a role model for thousands of young girls, as well as our beautiful Maidenhead escorts.

Last night, Cheryl scooped the most prestigious award given out by Glamour magazine at their lavish ceremony, winning “Woman of the Year”. She seemed quite overwhelmed at picking up her gong, thanking her dentist in her acceptance speech. As one of the most gorgeous women in the UK, we’re happy to have photos of her splashed all over the news! She wore a low cut number last night, looking as stunning as usual.

It has only been 2 weeks since she filed for divorce from footballer Ashley Cole, so it looks like she’s back on the market! We bet the hopeful suitors are lined up around the block already.
