Chezza (Still) Set To Crack the U.S!
Posted on August 16th, 2011 at 6:09 pm by Nick Crew
Its been quite a rollercoaster of a ride for Cheryl Cole since heading stateside, what with being on the US X Factor, then not, brought back, then fired again, we could hardly keep up!
But now it seems things are finally looking up for Miss Cole, as its been reported that she has landed a role in the hit TV show, Glee!
If correct then the 28-year-old could be following in the footsteps of Gwyneth Paltrow and Britney Spears, who have both made cameos on the globally huge show.
It seems her management are extremely keen make the singer a massive success in the states and are also lining up a possible role in another hit TV show, How I Met Your Mother.
Glee is one of the most popular shows on the planet at the moment, it has aired in over 44 countries and its stars are known worldwide… So if global fame is what Cheryl wants, then this is not a bad place to start.
Matthew Morrison, who plays teacher Will Schuester told Reveal magazine back in June: “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 know know!”
By the sounds of it, Mr. Morrison might have known about this all along if you ask me…
And if starring in Glee wasn’t enough, our Chez’ is planning on hitting up the big screens too, the former Girls Aloud singer is also set to appear in the forthcoming movie What To Expect When You’re Expecting, based on the successful pregnancy guide and starring big Hollywood names such as Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Dennis Quaid, Chris Rock, and Matthew Morrison…
Back from the brink it seems… Simon gave poor ol’ Chezza the boot… Bah! What does he know anyway!?!?

Thanks To Schuester, Kell-Glee Brook is Still Press Worthy!

After looking at these pics, what should I scream first? … Get a room … or, these pictures stink of a set-up! Um, I going with, THESE PICTURES STINK OF A SET-UP!!!
Glamour model Kelly Brook and my neighbor, Glee star Matthew Morrison certainly gave the passers by on a London street something to ogle about, as the couple appeared to ‘play-act’ their way into the tabloids.
I’ve never seen Kelly looking so uncomfortable when a camera was pointed in her direction, the sexpot is usually a natural … But not in this shoot!
You can clearly see as TV’s Will Schuester leans forward to kiss Kelly, she spots the strategically placed pap staring straight into its lens smiling awkwardly, in a ‘I can’t wait till this is over’ kind of way. That’s not so surprising, since it’s only week after she split with rugby ace Danny Cipriani.
Eventually Morrison gets some lip-on-lip action, but conveniently the pic just happens to be the most blurred snap in the set… At least it’s kept Kelly in the papers!
A source told Dan Wooton: “Kelly is moving on from Danny. She’s not looking back. Matthew is very into her and she thinks he’s adorable.
“She likes the fact he’s the opposite to Danny. He loves singing and dancing, not sports.”
Which leaves with one thing left to say … Now get a room!
Glee All Round as Both Kelly and Matt’s Teams Win!

After splitting with boyfriend Danny Cipriani, Kelly Brook‘s not sitting around and crying into her Hagen Daz.
In fact she looked positively Glee-ful as she watched the footy with my neighbour Matthew Morrison in London today, dressed in a crop top that flashed her toned tum.
The pair arrived together at a pub to watch England beat Slovenia 1-0 in the World Cup, although American Matthew must have been pleased that the USA side went through to the next round too.
And this isn’t Matt and Kel’s first meeting. They were spotted talking to each other at The Wolseley last week.
But Matthew has denied there’s any romance, saying: ‘It is a nightmare. I just feel bad for those other people because I don’t want to drag anyone else into it. I’m friendly with a lot of people and just going to dinner with someone turns into [something else].’
Matthew also appeared on stage with songbird Leona Lewis last week, and coincidentally Leona is also newly single, not to mention that night on the town with Richard Branson’s daughter Holly. It seems like he’s having that effect on the ladies of London!
