I hope she learns how to behave and doesn't blow her chance.

They also claim to have confirmed One Directions signing

OMG if it#s true, Cher's going GLOBAL!

Eric_Blob · 14/12/10 - 20:32

I hope so, but I'll wait for more evidence, because I don't want to get my hopes up.

I think will.i.am could do well with Cher, providing he doesn't make her do a collab with Cheryl. :eek:

[Deleted User] · 14/12/10 - 20:33

Omggggg, I hope this is true. ;_;

Lol, this is news to me... Katie Vogel? Previous Record Contract?? Tour with Paris Hilton??? (This was on that wikipedia page) When did this all happen?! O_O

[Deleted User] · 14/12/10 - 20:37

If true then good for her!

Gotham · 14/12/10 - 20:38

I thought they're tied up with SyCo until the tour is over?

spkx · 14/12/10 - 20:40

XFactorGoss is a made up/bullshit twitter account

and wikipedia has already been changed back

they can't sign to any non-Sony label until after the tour in March. will.i.am MG is a sub label of UMG

Maybe Simon decided to waive his option on her. Thus freeing her up to sign with Will.i.am.

I wouldn't believe a word from that twitter

At this moment, Matt has 23% of the vote, Rebecca has 37% of the vote, One Direction have 40% of the vote

spkx · 14/12/10 - 20:41

Look at their earlier tweets...

Vote change: At this moment, Rebecca has 30% of the vote, Matt has 32% of the vote, One Direction have 38% of the vote

Good lord. Will.i.am will do anything to try to get into Cheryl's knickers.

SeanHunter · 14/12/10 - 20:42

So, Cher fans have been hacking away at Wikipedia. Hope they are this active when it comes to buying her records?

To be fair, Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Eminem, Katy Perry, Usher, Justin Bieber all have fans that act like that too.

Fair enough.

[Deleted User] · 14/12/10 - 20:49

Will you are useless no one is gonna buy her rap album.

[Deleted User] · 14/12/10 - 20:50

I wouldn't believe this twitter, but it is possible b/c as someone pointed out to me, Will.I.Am's label does fall under the Sony.UMG umbrella, so he can sign her before her contract with X-factor is over.

brumilad · 14/12/10 - 20:54

I don't even think Cher is any good but surely she's aiming for and can get a better label than Will.i.am's?

Sony and UMG (Universal Music Group) are two separate music groups. They're not connected.

*Liya* · 14/12/10 - 20:54

UMG = Universal Music Group
She's under contract to Sony BMG and besides...there's no way she'll sign to someone else...she will end up at Sony. Will is probably going to work with her, producing music.

[Deleted User] · 14/12/10 - 20:55

Really hope it's true!!!

I love the BEPs songs. They are so much fun and positive. Hope her album is just as cool. Will is not the best singer but he is very talented in other areas. Great producer. Really hope Cher makes songs like I gotta a feeling, Love the way you lie, Girlfriend, no diggity/shout, etc similar to what she did on the show.

I doubt she will make a full out rap album, she is going to be something like fergie. Fergie's album was urban/pop/r&b and she also does the whole rap sing type thing. And thats exactly the sound Will-I_Am said he'll give Cher with a little electronic sound.

No, you were right before. Will.i.am is part of the Universal Music Group (UMG).
