At first I wasn't going to say anything but now I've got to the point where I just need to vent. Over the last few days, each day I pick up a newspaper or magazine I'm faced with seeing articles about the whole Cheryl Cole saga. I can't comprehend why people are so outraged with the fact that she got 'the boot' from America's X Factor. SERIOUSLY!! I mean loosing your job (whatever your situation, whatever the job) is not a nice thing to through and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. Nevertheless, here is a young woman from a British girl band (Girls Aloud) with a pretty face, but she is arguably the least talented one of the bunch. This is a typical example of how looks and little talent can take a person farther in life, than someone with a lot of talent. Her looks have even landed her numerous beauty advertisement deals.
Simon Cowell gave Cheryl Cole a fantastic opportunity to be a judge on Britain's X Factor. A show in which she used to promote her own music by doing occasional performances. Britain hailed Cheryl as its sweetheart and fashion icon (don't ask me why, I never really rated her ensembles). Especially, as Danni Minogue thrashed her in the style stakes on the show.
Still, the British public kept building up Cheryl Cole and she believed the hype. So much so, that when given the opportunity to be a judge in America for 'X Factor', she refused to tone down her 'geordie' accent and jetted off without a stylist (what on earth would posses someone to not reel in extra help in wardrobe, when a job pretty much depends on it when your female, and the bosses have been promised a style icon). In my eyes she put herself at a disadvantage. If I was offered a big break such as this, I would do everything possible to make sure that I nailed the job. Then when she gets the boot she's distraught and apparently angry with Mr. Cowell. Getting the sack is not a pleasant experience but Britain needs to get over it! I don't understand what all the fuss is about. There are millions of people that loose their jobs, have families to feed and mortgages to pay, with no advertisement deals in their back pocket. I'm sorry but Cheryl Cole is coming across as ungrateful! There are people out there that are much more talented but just can't get the break they truly deserve. I'm sure she'll land more deals in the near future and she'ryl get ova it!
