Cheryl Cole hit the stage at the 82nd Royal Variety Performance at the London Palladium recently. The ‘X-Factor’ judge used the opportunity to deliver the 1st televised performance of her new song, ‘The Flood’. Peep the footage below:

So she basically talked her way through the entire performance and lip-synced the only somewhat challenging note? Well at least we now know that the reason she got her job on ‘X-Factor’ was because of her looks. Good to know.

Thoughts?
