    I think Nadine has been out of the spotlight for too long, whereas Cheryl cashed in quite quickly by releasing her solo material before GA separated and has continued to steadily release her music, so being kept in the public eye. Maybe Nadine should have done a similar thing.

    Though, saying that, I didn't think much of Insatiable, maybe if she'd made her comeback with a stronger single, she would have fared better.

    Personally, I really don't understand all the hoopla over Cheryl and her music, and for me, she has made XF less enjoyable since she became a judge on it, to the point where I can hardly look at her on the TV.

    if girls aloud had any balls or survival instinct they would reform now without Cheryl. Do a take that without Robbie. They have to do it now rather than later because their shelf life is shorter. The spice girls looked desperate when they reformed, while Take that , not withstanding Gary's obvious outstanding talent, looked mature and enigmatic. Sarah, Kimberly and the ginger one, stop brown nosing Cheryl and get in touch with Nadine, Get a good producer and songwriter, and capitalise on your success now. **** Cheryl

    What a childish reference to NICOLA . :confused:

    Simon Cowell is behind Cheryl! If Cheryl is the nations sweetheart as i've been told I'm suprised she has not called nadine to have a get together with her and the the rest of the clique (band).... Isn't that what nice girl nextdoor girls do?

    My OH thinks Cheryl is horrible, he literally cant stand looking at her!!

    I think the perception of her beuty comes mainly from women.

    I couldn't agree more.

    Cheryl is a lot of women's idea of beautiful and therefore they think that's what men like rather than what they actually do like. You hear a lot more women saying "Why do men expect all women to look like Cheryl Cole?" than you hear men saying they would like women to look like her.

    The same goes for Angelina Jolie. I don't know a man who prefers her to Jennifer Aniston (except perhaps Brad Pitt :D but there are other reasons for that) but most women seem to think she is the walking definition of female beauty.

    And if being a popstar was all about voice Madonna and Gaga wouldnt be the biggest stars on the planet :)

    Lady Gaga has a very good voice.

    Yeah, thats why Cheryl came top in the 2010 poll of the Worlds Sexiest Women in that famous woman's weekly known as FHM Magazine and Nadine came No.59.

    I think the perception that s she's not beautiful comes from women wishing their other half didnt fancy the pants off of her!

    You do realise that the majority of votes in lads mags polls are placed by the partners of men who buy the mags, don't you?

    My other half is not backward in coming forwards about who he fancies and Cheryl doesn't get a look in.

    lol what rubbish.

    As a matter of fact we were talking about GA in a lecture last week. Most said Cheryl, one said Nadine, two said Kimberly and one said none of them because they don't have curves.
    It's no coincidence that Cheryl was almost top in FHM every year even before she gained ultra famous status.

    With regard to Nadine, I don't really have an opinion on her. I've heard good and bad things about her. Some say she's a lazy person and pathological liar others say she's lovely and is just being vilified.
    That's not really saying much considering Cheryl is the one most people will know because of the X Factor. So people are then more likely to answer positive questions about the one they know of the most. It's far more telling when a group of people answer positive questions with the more obscure members of GA than a group answering them with Cheryl.

    I've always seen Nadine as a real natural beauty, a different league to Cheryl who is pretty in her own way but very much the girl next door with a makeover and a lack of pies.;)
    .
    Jennifer Aniston is gorgeous too!

    Meg Ryan would be the one woman I would like to look like most :)

    I do think Angelina Jolie has 'sex lips' and I can see why people would see that as beautiful but she does nothing for me.:o

    I doubt Cheryl + Simon would have even let/wanted Nadine perform on X Factor :(

    The night Cheryl invited the rest of GA and they took fun twitter photos in the dressing room, Nadine revealed she had never been told about it (and made some remark about her invitation getting lost in the post, but good on her!). I feel very sorry for Nadine :(

    I think its unfair how GA keep saying "We'd have a reunion if only Nadine wasn't so busy/in the US/uncontactable" when in my eyes, Cheryl is the most busy. She is working so much on her solo career she barely has time to mentor her acts, let alone get back to the girlband.

    Also, i think Kimberley is the most beautiful. And she is curvy :)

    Angelina Jolie is more attractive than Jennifer Anniston, I thought that was common knowledge lol.

    Lot's of men find Cheryl attractive, others don't of course but you only have to look at forums across the internet to realise she does appeal to people.

    If anything women sing the praises of Kimberley much more than Cheryl.

    I don't get what you mean there, so the 8 or 9 people that said Cheryl should be disregarded?
    It could also be said that people on Digital Spy are biased given the overwhelmingly hate she get's on here.

    I have the same problem with Kimberley's face as with Angelina's - her lips are far too big for her face. Though, unlike Kimberley, Angelina does also have big eyes so doesn't have Kimberley's slightly piggy look.

    Kimberley is also very pear-shaped. Even her considerable weight loss since GA formed has only served to accentuate this as she has lost most of it from her top half where she didn't have much to lose in the first place.

    You seem to make a habit of thinking your opinion is fact.

    The world of music and celebrity is very fickle, but if she needs to stick at it, she just needs that one brilliant song to get her rolling.

    When Take That split up everyone thought it would be Gary that would go on to a fantastic solo career and that Robbie would never make it, the songs he released at first were pretty bland and unmemorable, then suddenly Robbie comes along with 'Angels' and the rest is history.

    I read an article several months ago by some columnist, they hit it right on the head, Cheryl is like a little girl playing dressup, she dosent "wear" the costumes they wear her, the difference is most young stars out there ARE themselves and are authentic, Cheryl has no real style, no style of her own and it gives the impression, like her music, that she is just media created and NO REAL TALENT!!!

    I agree. Insatiable was a weak lead single. In fact, it's a weak single full stop. Although I like it, it was never going to make serious chart impact.

    If I was Nadine though, I would feel frustrated seeing Cheryl getting everything handed to her on a plate.

    I look forward to seeing if Sarah Harding's solo material goes the way of success like Cheryl's or Nadine's lack of.

    Nadine's album is great though, better than both of Cheryl's efforts; and I'm a Cheryl fan rather than a Nadine fan. It just takes a while to grow on you.

    No, no, of course not.

    I'm saying that..with the Jennifer and Courtney example from earlier: Jennifer is a lot more famous so when people are asked who they think it's better looking, they're far more likely to say Jennifer because she's more well known. So when 10 people say Courtney, it's more meaningful than 10 saying Jennifer if that makes sense? I'm not saying the opinions on the more famous one should be disregarded at all.

    I think Sarah's album will go somewhere in between sales wise. Sarah will be wise enough not to distribute her album via a supermarket chain. However, seeing as she isn't getting anywhere near as much exposure as Cheryl, she can't compete with Cole in terms of sales.

    I feel sorry for her. She was the voice of Girls Aloud. However, her efforts to be a solo star have flopped miserably while Cheryl, clearly an inferior singer, goes from strength to strength in her career.
    Cheryl wouldn't be anywhere without The X Factor. She's an insecure, desperate, fame-hungry shell.

    If Nadine was the judge, she'd be the one with the successful solo career, and all the top songwriters writing her songs.

    I hope both of their careers fail.

    A matter of opinion. All but one of the guys I know in the real world think Nadine is far better looking than Cheryl (in fact most don't think Cheryl is even the second or third best looking in the group). I also find it interesting that on their YT video comments, those who don't know the group always ask who the "insert various descriptions of Nadine" is and say she's "gorgeous", "beautiful", etc. The wide perception of Cheryl being incredibly good looking seems to be something rather unique to countries where Cheryl's and/or the group's PR reaches.

    As for personality, Cherly is hardly sparkling.

    Many artists have the drive to push themselves but they're not all as lucky as Cheryl.

    Nadine is and always was better than the others (the only one who came close to her vocally is Nicola) so why shouldn't she think it?

    Hello Mona :)
    Are these the same guy's who are telling you that they think Stacey 'Wallace and Gromit' Solomon is hotter than Kayla on I'm a celebrity :rolleyes:

    hang on, just realised this is happening.

    Personally , If I was locked in a room with either Nadine of Cheryl , I'm sorry , but Nadine would be for me as Cheryl is not really that beautiful, and she is very annoying!

    People have different views and opinions on what they think is beautiful :confused:
    Some people like Cheryl and others prefer Nadine. Why is that so shocking?

    I used to find Cheryl quite pretty but she's... kinda sugary pretty. If you see too much of her you get sick of her. Just like when you eat too much sugar you get sick of it.
    Whereas Nadine is very beautiful, I've always wanted to look like her :)
    I hope Nadine's career will do well.

    Cheryl must have done something right to get the X Factor gig in the first place...she's got personality and charisma that gets you a long way in showbusiness
