Cheryl finds Glee: Miss Cole lands cameo role on hit US TV show
0 comments Posted by Baserolo at 3:28 AMSimon Cowell may have thought she wasn't good enough for American audiences but Cheryl Cole has reportedly landed a role in Glee.
The Girls Aloud singer has allegedly managed to bag herself a cameo role on the hit TV series following in the footsteps of Gwyneth Paltrow and Britney Spears.
Her management team, led by Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, have been busy negotiating possible roles for the Parachutes singer in both Glee and the E4 comedy How I Met Your Mother.
Cheryl goes to Hollywood: Chezza, pictured here at her birthday party in July at The Sanderson hotel, has secured two cameo roles in the US
Since Simon and the producers of X Factor US gave Chezza the boot, Will.i.am has been in regular contact with American television networks CBS and Fox in a bid to help get the deposed judge more exposure.
Glee is aired in 44 countries world wide and will open up options for the 28-year-old in the lucrative Asian market as well as the rest of Europe where she is already a household name.
Matthew Morrison may be the man to thank for Cheryl's big break as the Glee star told Reveal in June that the Geordie-lass could make it in America if she appeared on the show.

He said: 'Cheryl is on the front of every newspaper and magazine in the UK. It’s not the same in America, but I still think she can crack it over there. She is a talented girl.'
Morrison, who plays teacher Will Schuester in the hit TV show, added: 'Appearing in Glee would be a good way for Cheryl to crack America.
'She was part of Fox when she was involved in US X Factor – they also make Glee. Maybe she will get an appearance – you never know!'
Success: Cheryl and manager will.i.am were seen looking happy in Cannes earlier this month
The good news keeps on coming for Cheryl as yesterday the Mail Online revealed that she would also appear alongside Hollywood superstars Cameron Diaz, 38, and Jennifer Lopez, 42, in forthcoming film What To Expect When You’re Expecting.
The film, which is an adaptation of the successful pregnancy guide, is being made by Lionsgate and is due for release next May.
It began shooting in mid-May and Cheryl, who is in ‘advanced talks’ to appear, will shoot her scenes in the U.S. later this month.

In what will be seen as a clear side-swipe at Cowell, Chezza will play a TV talent show judge for her cameo role in the film.
The film –whose cast also includes actors Dennis Quaid, Chris Rock and Matthew Morrison - chronicles the lives of four couples as they prepare to become parents.
Diaz plays Jules who auditions in an X Factor-style contest in front of the TV talent show judge - Miss Cole’s character.

Cheryl is said to have initially impressed Hollywood film bosses during a four-day appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
In recent weeks, the pop star has been in Los Angeles enjoying some extended time off – following her early axing from Cowell’s US show.
A film source revealed: ‘This is a bit of fun for Cheryl. She will film the scenes imminently and is really looking forward to it.
The source went on: ‘It doesn’t mean she suddenly wants to become actress.
'It was just an opportunity that has come up while she has been having some down time and she thought it would be great fun to take part.'

You can let go now J-Lo! Ms Lopez clung to the 'Latino Brad Pitt' while cameras were off as she filmed latest video, new behind-the-scenes pics show
0 comments Posted by Baserolo at 8:34 PMTheir on-screen chemistry was undeniable in Jennifer Lopez' new music video released in May.
And now new behind-the-scenes pics show the pair looked just as steamy in between takes.
Cuban soap star and former model William Levy, 30, starred as J-Lo's love interest in the video for the aptly-named I'm Into You.
Cut! Camera crew can be seen working on the set of Jennifer Lopez' video between takes as she snuggles up to male model William Levy
In the clip, filmed in Cancun, Mexico, a buff William, who has been dubbed the 'Latino Brad Pitt', can be seen running from the beach towards Jennifer who lounges back on a chair.
Soon after, they lay on the sand, Jennifer, 42, with her head nestled against the actor's chest.
They are seen standing up, Jennifer writhing against William, whispering into his ear and at the end of the video kissing him on the lips.

These latest candid shots show the pair gazing into each others eyes while the crew behind them busily prepare the scene.
In one shot, Jennifer stands behind William with her arms wrapped around his neck and her face nuzzled into the back of his neck.

Jennifer looks glamorous in a jeweled dress with her wet hair tousled back. A topless William has his muscles on display and wears a pair of beige shorts.
In May, the month the video was released, William announced his separation from Mexican actress Elizabeth Gutierrez.
A month later, Jennifer and Marc announced their separation after seven years of marriage.They have three-year-old twins Emme and Max.
Soon after Jennifer's marriage ended rumours surfaced that she was seeing William.
But he denied the reports, saying: 'The only relationship there was or is, is a professional relationship.'
He added: 'That’s all there’s ever been.'
But William raved about his beautiful co-star soon after filming wrapped.
'It was wonderful,' he said.
'I felt very comfortable. She is a very sincere and fun person.
'The truth is I had a really great time,' he added. 'It was wonderful to see that someone so huge could be so down to earth, in addition to being really funny.'
Jennifer might want to think twice before getting involved with him.
Numerous women over the years have claimed to have had affairs with him while he was married and in August last year a 17-year-old girl filed a lawsuit against Levy in Los Angeles alleging that Levy had sexually abused her.
Court documents state that on July 19, 2010, William 'with deception and trickery' lured an unnamed plaintiff, into coming back to the Hilton Hotel in Glendale, California and forcing her to perform a sex act on him.
He has strongly denied the allegations and counter-sued for $10 million alleging extortion and defamation.
Jennifer has also been seen getting cosy with her What To Expect When You're Expecting co-star Rodrigo Santoro.
She is currently filming in Atlanta Georgia. The movie is based on a book of the same name which is a pregnancy guide.
It tells the story of five couples who suffer the many joys and pains of the childbirth process.
Jennifer recently said this week that she found love complicated.
'We’re all trying to work love out. People ask why there’s a question mark after the word on my album (titled Love?), but it’s because we all have to work it out. It’s very complex and you have to question and challenge yourself and the people around you to be better.
'Having babies taught me what unconditional love is – it’s the most amazing thing that has happened to me and it made me question everything else. I don’t beat myself up about the past and the choices I made – I just try to be better.'

New York: Pop diva and actress Jennifer Lopez is reportedly closing in on a USD 34 million deal for her second stint as a judge on the hit show 'American Idol'.
The 42-year-old star's return to the next season was doubtful after she asked for the hefty pay package - a steep increase from her USD 12 million remuneration for the previous season - to reappear alongside fellow panelists Steven Tyler and Randy Jackson on the talent show, reported Wall Street Journal online.
But the deal seems to have been sorted out, as Frot-Coutaz, chief executive officer at FremantleMedia North America, which produces the series, said, "We're in good shape. No worries. No dark clouds on the horizon."
A spokesman for Lopez said "there is nothing to announce," and Fox declined to comment.
Lopez and 'Aerosmith' frontman Tyler joined 'American Idol' after its star judge Simon Cowell left last year to start 'The X-Factor'.

Lopez and her entourage of 16, which included her mother, sister, manager and stylist, enjoyed a lavish dinner at Scott Conant’s restaurant, Scarpetta, inside the Fontainebleau hotel
“Jennifer looked radiant in a purple and silver evening dress,” People magazine quoted a source as saying.
“And when they brought out her birthday cake after the meal, she began to sing. She was very happy. The whole group had a blast, staying for hours. They closed down the restaurant,” the source added.
Lopez and seven others had also enjoyed a pre-birthday dinner at the Wine Cellar of the Forge on Miami Beach.

It should have been the glittering highlight of their seven-year union.
Multi-millionaire superstars Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony were due to be guests of honour at the top table with Prince William and Kate at last weekend’s glittering Bafta gala in Hollywood.
Instead, J-Lo sashayed down the red carpet in a provocatively clinging green Pucci gown accompanied by her mother, Guadalupe, a former kindergarten teacher from the Bronx. She was also missing her wedding ring.

Royal aides, along with the singer-actress’s millions of fans, were mystified.
But on Friday night in a statement issued through J-Lo’s publicist, the couple, worth an estimated £240 million, announced they are to divorce.
‘This is not a surprise,’ J-Lo’s stylist Phillip Bloch said in an exclusive interview last night.
‘Marc is very controlling. In the beginning she liked that because he stood up to her, and in the early days he was very much in love with her and she was with him.’

But the couple are said to have begun to squabble soon after 41-year-old J-Lo’s mother moved into their Long Island, New York mansion in 2008 to help look after their newborn twins.
‘They also clashed when she learned he owed millions in unpaid taxes on the Long Island estate,’ said film-maker Ed Meyer, an associate of J-Lo’s first husband, Cuban-born club-owner Ojani Noa.
‘The other problem was that they couldn’t agree where to live.
'J-Lo’s career is in Hollywood and she wanted to live in their Malibu mansion and Marc loved New York. She was going to move to New York in a last-ditch effort to save the marriage. But last Monday I heard it was all over.’
In November 2002 – after a second failed marriage, to backing dancer Cris Judd – Jennifer became engaged to actor Ben Affleck, declaring he was ‘the one’.
But The Mail on Sunday has learned that years before, another man, top Latin American recording artist Marc Anthony, had become infatuated with her.
J-Lo broke up with Affleck in January 2004.
That June Marc, now 42, finalised his divorce from former Miss Universe Dayanara Torres.

Four days later they married at Jennifer’s home in Beverly Hills.
They presented themselves as a fairytale couple.
But soon after the birth of the twins, the couple are said to have begun to argue.

‘J-Lo’s mother wanted to run her life and Marc wanted to run her life and I don’t think J-Lo wanted anyone to control her,’ said Meyer.
Friends say J-Lo made one last attempt to save the marriage with her offer to move back to New York.
‘She fought to make it work for the sake of the children,’ said Phillip Bloch. ‘She desperately did not want a third divorce.’
