Pop force Cheryl Cole charged onto the Britain’s Got Talent stage tonight to offer the first live performance of new single ‘Crazy Stupid Love’.
The showing, which precedes the debut of song’s video on Monday, saw The X Factor judge joined by Tinie Tempah and an army of dancers.

Yikes.
For all the solidness of the performance, its various bells and whistles couldn’t divert from how dire the actual song is.
Indeed, it put the wackness of the track in full spotlight for all to see.
Again, unfortunate, as everything built around it was in fine form; namely the choreography, the sass, and staging. Even Cheryl’s pre-recorded vocal wasn’t as bad as usual.
With so few gravitating to the song upon launch, Cole’s best bet would be to bill it as a buzz cut and rush through promotional efforts in preparation for a “proper” chart attack. Because, even if this charts well, aggressively trying to put a pretty bow on garbage could have an adverse effect her campaign.
