Last Nights Graham Norton Show

[EcclesCake]

Did anyone see this?

I have to admit that Cheryl Cole's career has largely passed me by. Beyond thumping a cloakroom attendant and being a judge on X-Factor I really don't know much about her, judging from last nights performance I haven't missed much!

Admittedly I only caught the end of the programme and may have missed her demonstrating her wit and wisdom, what I did see was a girl who seemed to be in a constant state of panic that she didn't get Ross Noble's jokes and were they aimed at her.

I am baffled by her god awful outfit and am still trying to work out why she was constantly grabbing her crotch as she mimed her way through her performance.

Apart from having beautiful eyes what does she bring to the world of entertainment???

[TOWIE]

I thought how smug she looked for someone with absolutely no talent. Thought her dance routine was horrible, especially when she kept clutching her crotch.

Can't stand her.

[tonyav]

Yeah, but she's gorgeous.

[chi-chi66]

nowt.....

I did see some of it..apparently, Simon Cowell is a good kisser..wow...
all the time she was clutching Katy Perry and vice versa.(now my new
bestest friend ever!!)

Ross Noble stole the show for me.

[Mattk]

Cheryl Cole has very little personality and never comes across well.

As for the dance routine I very much doubt that she had any input.

[EcclesCake]

I'm more than happy to take Cheryl's word for Simon Cowell's kissing abilities!

I enjoyed Ross Noble and always look forward to HIGNIFY when he's on.

My personal opinion is that she's a chav who got lucky. Yes, she's very pretty, but she can't sing and her dress sense is weird. I wonder when her moment of fame will be over?

[Kathyan]

It can't come soon enough for me chapta!

[craft1948]

I think Cheryl is extremely pretty, but not all that clever. Like the Spice Girls, Girls Aloud members are rubbish solo, but very good as a group................

[EcclesCake]

I couldn't name a Girls Aloud song if I tried! I might recognise them though.

I half agree with you Craft but I remember seeing Mel C and Bryan Adams doing an acoustic set, 'When You're Gone' was incredible and after that I had the great respect for her.

I am deeply concerned that I'm turning into my mother, grumbling about outfits, dancing and music.........

[vodkancoke]

Well I like her so ner! lol She is a stunning woman and I personally thought she came across well last night. Yes she can't sing live, fair enough....and sadly, thanks to the Jubilee Concert, we have discovered that neither can Paul McCartney, Cliff Richard or Elton John! I agree with craft, it seems to be when members of girl groups go solo it all seems to fall apart and it's discovered they can't sing. It's a shame because her albums are good albeit slightly electronically tweaked!

[chaptazbru]

Lol Kathyan ....

[missprim]

I think if she got married and had a family we would hardly ever hear of her again.

[jomifl]

I only heard of her yesterday does she do anything worthwhile apart from recycle money?

[chi-chi66]

vodka..

the people you are comparing her singing abilities to, are quite a lot older
than she is..when getting older you're voice deteriorates...whats her excuse,
where will she be at their age, longforgotten. Cheryl Cole will never have a
career as these singers have had. ;o)

[vodkancoke]

Very true chi-chi, I appreciate what you are saying. I don't think she should be a soloist, I thought she was far better in Girls Aloud. However, I still like her and whether she can sing or not doesn't particularly phase me lol

[DTCwordfan]

Vodka - to be fair to Elton, he had flu 10 days before hand and being the wuss, he was on oxygen, so I would cut him some slack - the others I agree were awful.

Cheryl is gorgeous and gets a lot of men's fantasies going....and it was more than blatantly obvious that Simon had the hots for her. Should have gone with him and stayed away from the rat the AC was....though I bet it was half a dozen of her too......I do agree with the sentiment that when it comes to finding a hubby and a family she may drop into the background more. Victoria Beckham she is not when it comes to the grey matter though she outscores Queen Grumpy on looks.

But I would prefer Katherine Jenkins in my bed, Tony........she has more brains too and seems a good sport - that scene on Norton with the Canadian opera dog was pure brilliance. Just found it....

[DTCwordfan]

(excuse me, eccles. Ddid you see the "Its very windy thread", vodka....something there that will interest you on page 3.)

[vodkancoke]

Lol thanks DT...I think! xx

[islasmum]

That is a wonderful piece from Graham Norton with Katherine Jenkins & the scottie dog from Canada. I think that Cheryl Cole is lovely looking, but what the hell was she thinking when she chose that outfit to go on a tv show? And the crotch grabbing? what was that about? Mind you, I thought that Katy Perry was fun, but I think I would get very tired of all that arm-flinging around and high fiving and generally the exuberance after a short while. (God I'm getting old!)
