We generally don’t cover British “celebrity” Cheryl Cole, but I found this story interesting. Granted, I’m an American and I only really know Cheryl from the handful of comments our few Cheryl stories have gotten. So… she was in a girl group, and then she became a popular judge on one of the British singing shows, and then she married a footballer, and she also has a past strewn with violence and bigotry, right? Does that about sum it up? Oh, and lots of British dudes are totally hot for her and lots of British ladies want to look like her.
Anyway, Cheryl is in America now – she moved to LA after her marriage to serial cheater and thunder-stealer Ashley Cole fell apart. Cheryl dumped Ashley after several women came out publicly to say that they boned him. Cheryl has got a certain good-girl image in the UK is seems, and she’s hoping that the image carries over to America, I guess. She was maybe “dating” Derek Hough, although Perez claims they aren’t now because Cheryl is with some Black Eyed Peas back-up dancer. Basically, Cheryl has been keeping a pretty low profile, but that may soon change. According to a random report in a British tabloid – that everyone is picking up now – Cheryl has been offered six figure to pose for Playboy. The initial report has the offer at 500,000 pounds, or roughly $770,000, but some sources have upped the price to a cool million. The problem? Little Miss Wholesome doesn’t want to ruin her good-girl image! Um…she realizes that barely no one in America knows who she is, right?
The famous men’s magazine wants the stunning X Factor babe for a centrefold shoot. Bosses at 84-year-old media mogul Hugh Hefner’s publication think Cheryl, 27, has the perfect looks to be a hit in the States.
They reckon her quirky accent and toned bod make her perfect to follow other famous centrefolds such as US reality star Kim Kardashian, 29. Bosses are said to have promised the Geordie babe half a million pounds to pose wearing nothing but her famous northern smile. They are on a mission to find gorgeous Brits after Kelly Brook, 30, proved hugely popular.
The Daily Star discovery was snapped in a lacy thong, bow-tie and black bowler hat for the magazine’s September edition. But down-to-earth Girls Aloud star Cheryl looks set to turn down the offer of appearing in the buff, insisting it is not for her.
A pal said: “Cheryl is incredibly flattered by the offer but she’s always been fundamentally opposed to going nude in magazines. She reckons it’s great if other girls can do it, but it really isn’t her. People won’t believe it but she is actually incredibly shy when it comes to all that stuff.”
Cheryl has also been warned not to pile her workload high as she recovers from malaria.
The insider added: “Cheryl has a fortune of £10million. It’s not like she needs the money.”

Kelly Brook had a magnificent rack going for her – but I could see Cheryl being a popular choice with American men. She is very pretty. But American men won’t get the chance to see her bits and pieces, it seems like. Personally, I think it’s a dumb move to walk away from the offer. It would be a solid introduction for her in America, and she would probably get a lot of work out of it. What the hell, you know? Especially in this economy – that’s a lot of money for someone most Americans don’t give a crap about.
One last thing – is that a gigantic tattoo on her thigh?
