Cheryl Cole is reportedly set to be mentored by hip-hop mogul Jay-Z for her break in the US. The X Factor judge was said to be in talks with Beyonce Knowles’ husband for a collaboration. “Cheryl is the biggest fan of Jay-Z and Beyonce,” the Mirror quoted a source as saying.

“To hear the feeling is mutual has totally made her year. She never imagined her album would have taken off like this. “To get Jay-Z’s support is beyond her wildest dreams,” the source added.

Cheryl Cole has ditched the military threads for an ultra-glamorous look for the video of her new single.  The Girls Aloud star teams up with Black Eyed Pea Will.I.Am again in 3 Words - also the title track for her recent Number One album.

These are all stills from the video shoot for the new track, Cheryl's second solo single, which hits the shops on December 21.

The one-off special - entitled Cheryl Cole's Night In - will further establish the singer as a solo artist following the release of her solo album, 3 Words.

The Girls Aloud star will perform songs from the collection, and be joined by pop star friends and artists who have influenced her.

Stacey opted for ear muffs over her headphones, Lloyd Daniels channelled old man vibes in a flat cap and Olly looked a little too smart in a blazer and trilby. But even worse, style icon Cheryl looked as if she’d copied Calvin Harris and turned up with a pineapple on her head.

Since then, she was photographed apparently having a row with husband Ashley during a night out in London last week, which fuelled speculation all was not well.

The frosty encounter was captured following Cheryl's performance of Fight For This Love at the Children In Need gig at the Royal Albert Hall last Thursday.

Cheryl was keen to go out and party afterwards, but England footballer Ashley wanted to go to bed.
