As a barely there vocalist, Cheryl Cole‘s point of appeal has always been her ability to blaze a stage while flawlessly lip-synching.

However, the campaign for new album ‘Only Human’ (due November 10th) seems geared towards selling her as more than a Pop-robot.

To aid that cause, the star’s camp have cultivated a collection of stripped back acoustic performances from The X Factor judge. The primary problem? What’s left to listen to when the “singer” in question possesses a voice as thin as a sheet of A4 paper?

Find out below, where Cole’s new performance of the album’s title track awaits…

Is Lady Luck beefing with Nicole Scherzinger? Because, we’re here wondering when the former Pussycat Doll will catch a break. If ever.

As reported at the tail of last year, the talented star inked a lucrative global deal with Sony Music – which sees her signed to their subsidiaries RCA and Epic in the UK and US respectively.

The first album offering from the partnership, ‘Big Fat Lie’, was released in the UK this week and it was hoped The-Dream and Tricky Stewart produced set would deliver commercially.

However, when the Official UK Album Chart was revealed today it brought with it the news that the LP only scrapped a position in the lower level of the top 20.

Fox dropped the trailer for their forthcoming TV series ‘Empire’ yesterday evening, teasing music lovers with Terrence Howard-led  show long before its 2015 release date.

Tamar Braxton may be more qualified to be an ‘Atlanta Housewife’ than Kenya Moore is, but it would appear the latter would like the Grammy-nominated singer keep her opinions on her role on the hit Bravo show to herself.

For, after learning that Braxton had branded her trouble making antics on the series “thirsty” during her appearance on ‘Watch What Happens Live’, Moore clapped back on Twitter.

What went down in A-Town?
