With much ado made about Cheryl Cole‘s X Factor USA role, the newly-appointed panelist was keen to strike a chord with the US press.
Check out her refined accent as she chats it up with Yahoo Music about judging on the Fox show, whether she is nervous about doing so, missing home, and more.
Her vocal coach may have failed miserably, but her media trainer sure didn’t. For, Ms. Cole actually came across particularly well here. Whether she’ll resonate with the Stateside audience come Fall will be interesting to see.

Um, U STFU! First, you don’t even have to sell a million records in the UK to go platinum. So the b**** barely got fans, except for your dumb ass.
Second, her voice is so thin when the b**** cough she lessens her range a whole octave. Not that she could hit more than one to begin with! …and on top of all that SHE LIP SYNCHS!!! Plus, HER SONGS ARE ASS. I have no respect for her as an artist.

^^^LOL
what is she talking about !?
liked her debut album tho, the second one SUCKED!
To all the Americans talking negative about Cheryl’s accents… How Dare You!!!… U guys have no say in accents when your accent is the most nasally sounding accent on this planet… Yet we choose not to judge you guys on it, so don’t go criticizing other ppl’s accents when yours isn’t perfect yourselves. Why should she have to change her accent to have success in another country, is that how judgmental you Americans are gonna take it, not even about her weak voice, but simply her speaking voice… how sad, Thank Jesus I’m not american, i really do thank him, Being British is a gift from god, same westernized ways, but far less stuck up, to the point your judging accents like your sounds any better… Think before you start typing, your hating is going too far now
There’s so many examples of women in Hollywood who aren’t exceptionally talented but are insanely famous in the USA – Rihanna, Kim Kardashian, Megan Fox, etc. Beauty goes a long way, Cheryl’s going to be a huge hit imo. Say what you will but that’s a face that belongs on TV, she looks amazing!
That accent is atrocious though, damn.
lol@Redskin complaining about how Brit’s choose not to judge AFTER pointing out how nasally American’s sound… well played.
Cheryl is cute…Iheaded a mashup of fight for this love and Justin bieber and usher on are radio up her…I just hope she can really launch a solo career stateside.I don’t want a Britney singing live.
@Redskin
Me & You both,thank god I’m not full American cause some are just so judgementle!!! AND WALK AROUND LIKE THEY S*** DON’T STINK.
I love her Geordie accent it’s like patois…
All these people bitching about her…..GET A LIFE!! You can understand her just fine. There’s nothing wrong with her accent. She’s there as a judge. DId Paula, Simon, Randy, Ellen, Kara, L.A., Sharon, Louis or Dannii have amazing vocals? She can sing better than all her fellow judges combined(with exception of J. Lo, who she’s not far behind, based on J. Lo’s performance on AI). So she doesn’t play an instrument. Neither did Frank Sinatra. If a big voice was the be all and end all of music, there’d be hardly any singers. Music is about escapism and fun. Its not supposed to be regulated based on what you like. I’m not made and Cheryl’s music but Parachute and 3 Words are amazing songs. She can make music if she wants. Haters are the antithesis of everything music is about.
Of course its a big decision to go Stateside. If she flops her TV career is over. Its not like she can go back to UK and pretend nothing happened
She’s a nice person. Yeah she made some mistakes when she was younger but who hasn’t? It was a decade ago. Are we supposed to hold people mistakes against them forever? Cos, if we are, we should call Angela Merkel and let her know we still hate her country for what they did to the Jews.
Being from Newcastle I’m pretty glad she’s kept her accent!
@RedSkin
You and me both hahaha. I should thank God for that more often. IT”S BETTER IN THE BAHAMAS and wherever Cheryl is hahahaha.
I’m glad she’s doing the show and I like the way she speaks. It’ll be nice not to hear LIKE YA KNOW, LIKE FOR REAL, I WAS LIKE, HE WAS LIKE, SHE WAS LIKE, LIKE, LIKE, LIKE, LIKE.
Is she slow? LIke mentally challenged?
THE MOMENT CHERYL HAS TO GET UP ON STAGE AND PERFORM ONE OF HER DIRE SONGS IT WILL BE ALL OVER FOR HER LIKE ASHLEE SIMPSON.SHE CANNOT SING LIVE AND WILL HAVE TO RESORT TO MIMING EVERY PERFORMANCE, AMERICANS HATE THAT AND SHE WILL BE SHOWN TO BE A FRAUD.THE PRESS NEED TO POINT OUT HER RACIST PAST AND NOT SWEEP IT UNDER THE RUG.
Awwww how cute she is :))))))))) love her so muchhh <3
I told you, how could you not love her.. she so amazing, and most of all honest when she speaks. She so real and honest.. so sweet!!
Thank you for posting stuff about her!! keep doing this I love it so muchhh!!!
Her accent makes me more crazy about her, she so lovelyy!!!! and everybody could understand her!
As a UK resident I have to say i was gettng pretty sick of Cheryl – she was on the cover of every magazine, on every billboard, on every TV advert, on every TV show. I was the first to say ‘Bugger off to the US!’. But now she’s over there and I see American’s are bashing her I feel like I need to defend her to them, and tell them to give her a chance. She’s honest, there’s a no b******* approach from her which I think the Americans will find refreshing, as all their TV/film/music stars are SO media trained it’s hard to get an honest answer out of them. And the whole accent thing, are Americans really that stupid that they can’t understand someone talking English with a slightly different accent.?I don’t think so. Don’t subscribe to what is a very easy way to dismiss her. It’s lazy.
@ Scott
i usually don’t go defending or stars on this cos
i don’t know them personally
but when you say stuff like that it makes you
look dumb immature judgmental
an uneducated
not really a fan of Cheryl but i do think she is good tv
yeah she just look good but she ain’t racist
Er her ex husband Er is black
as for the Miming ER Jennifer lopez an Britney
ain’t they massive in America
Cheryl never claimed to be Mariah
she knows what an who she is Thats a good judge
an real she will be loved you will she
an when she performs i would much rather her
Jennifer and Britney mime an dance any day
would rather Mariah Adele leona Jessie j and j hud
do the singing live ANYDAY
People overate her beauty too much go to London and you will see pure british beauty
YEEEEEEES she is simons cassie that is all..
*Leaves*

WHO THE F*** DRESSED THIS B****?
She’s a cute lil thing 🙂
I think she seems very geniune and sweet- probably the reason Simon chose her. I AM LIVING for that big hair- any woman that can sound sweet while wearing Lady Bunny’s wig is Aces in my book. I love when people do something dramatic. This being said, Saturday Night Live is going to have a field day making fun of her! Gurl, gird your loins, because your accent is this year’s accent to imitate a la Sarah Palin’s Alaska twang. It is funny you have this beautiful woman, and every time she opens her mouth I think she is about to ask if she is going to ask Fagin and Oliver is she can help them pickpocket the landed gentry visiting Oxford Circus.
Reading these comments is funny! Most all Americans I know love accents, all of them! The only comments I have read about her accent possibly being an issue were on UK sites. We have people with British accents doing radio ads, TV ads, on all sorts of shows, even on voicemail systems at large corporations. So we have no issues with accents at all and actually love hearing them so much that they work well in advertising, i.e., they sell things. As for this person, she seems pretty adorable and sweet but we have no idea who she is because — and this stereotype is sadly true — most Americans are clueless about news from beyond the US. As an artist, I don’t really hang around or fit into mainstream American culture and i do read world news. I, and most people i personally know, also cringe at how the average “Ugly American” acts, especially when visiting other countries. But, hey, we don’t get to choose where we are born. The most prevalent negative stereotype in this country regarding Europeans is their disdain for us for not speaking other languages. Here we are not even offered foreign languages in public schools until we are in middle school, approx age 12. Only the children of the very wealthy, who can afford to send their kids to private schools and have private language lessons, can pass as bi- or tri-lingual. Other than that, we are mostly in awe of Europeans. So i don’t get this notion that we have issues with Brits or with Cheryl Cole for her accent. We just don’t know who she is. That’s all.
