I dont get why everyone always says she can't sing and isnt talented.

Video below of her performing an amazing dance routine and singing live.

She's undeniably very talented!

No, but it does put a different slant on it. That's not her main job, it's likely she wasn't in that low paid job supporting a family permanently not saying this meant it was ok though. Just puts a different slant on it of being an unprovoked attack on a minimum wage worker.

squoosh · 30/11/2015 14:46

How does it put a different slant on it? She walloped a toilet attendant. Hard.

Doesn't make a difference what the victim does when she's not at her job.

ouryve · 30/11/2015 14:49

Last time I heard her "sing" live, she couldn't even hit a correct note with a mallet. It was excruciating.

I think there will be a place for her on Loose Women eventually. They'll have anyone.

Nanny0gg · 30/11/2015 15:11

Anyone else feel really sorry for the backing singers to all these 'stars'?

They need real talent to work and yet they have to stand behind people who can't find the key with both hands.

Roussette · 30/11/2015 15:17

I just find it bizarre that she can sit on a judging panel and judge singing when she can't sing herself.

I know it's not a popular thing to say and I did post on the now deleted thread but the fact she has hollow cheeks, shoulders that are pointed, arms like twigs, she is not someone to look up to. Now then, fair do's if she has an ED, my sympathies, but if she chooses to look like a bag of bones, I think it is very wrong. She looks ill, it doesn't matter how much make up you plaster on, you can't emulate natural healthiness which is what we should be teaching our DC is the best way to be. Thank god my DDs are older and pay her no attention.

ButtonMoon88 · 30/11/2015 15:21

Going back to the point about having no right to criticise just because she is in the public eye, I sort of feel we do. She is happy to sell her life to the magazines when it suits her so can't expect people not to comment at other times. It's hypocritical.

Perhaps this post has been started by an insider- hasn't she got a single coming out?

ShmooBooMoo · 30/11/2015 15:26

Ummm, no, she's dire! Talent is Freddie Mercury, Kate Bush, James Morrison, Paul Young, Annie Lennox. Cheryl 'Whatever he name is for the moment' sings crap songs, can't hold a tune and regurgitates the same dance moves over and over... I hate the word 'talent' being used when describing what is essentially mediocre at best!

SuperFlyHigh · 30/11/2015 15:38

cleo wow of course Nicola will stand up for Chezza - and probably lie under oath too - and if that part "is" true then why was Chezza convicted as I presume Nicola was called upon as a witness?!

She was a part time law student yes, the fact remains there that she probably couldn't afford to study law full time so it had to be a part time option.

Also the racist allegations would be hard to prove without evidence (and there was only presumably Chezza's, nicola's and the TAs. I think the TA was encouraged to bring the racist allegation under duress to be quite honest with you.

Booyaka · 30/11/2015 16:02

Re people getting all 'oh but it's all just scurrilous rumours business'. People said the same about Charles, Diana, Whitney Houston, Michael Jackson, JFK and loads of other people and yes it did turn out the plastic surgery/drug habit/marital woes/eating disorder rumours were true in the end. Often there really is something in a lot of them. Though not saying any of those apply to CJD or whatever her name is.

Chippednailvarnish · 30/11/2015 16:16

This thread is like the gift that keeps on giving!

that clip shows what a pro cfv is who the fuck is cvf? You christened her VD, at least get her name right.

She carried on through technical difficulties, she smartly took out the ear Piece well if taking out an ear piece makes you smart, I'm an intellectual of Geri Halliwell proportions.

She didn't do an Ashlee Did her ex DH sing badly too? I must have missed that bit.

I dont think its very nice to laugh at someone when something goes wrong while they are doing their job. You wouldn't do it to someone in an office you are of course right, someone prancing around my office singing that badly wouldn't be a laughing matter.

She was even there at that gig for humanitarian reasons to help end cancer well if VD does end cancer it will be a real shock to most doctors that's for sure.

TheWoodenSpoonOfMischief · 30/11/2015 16:21

Op your loyalty to C VD is a bit.....unusual.
You seem quite invested in her defence. I wonder why.

GreatFuckability · 30/11/2015 16:31

OP...in the nicest possible way, what the fuck are you listening too when you think that clip of Geri is proof of good singing? It wasn't even good signing (for the dead fans Grin)

Utterlyclueless · 30/11/2015 16:32

Haven't RTFT but raranah you're either Cheryl, related to her or trying to do PR for her.

I don't think she's talented, I do think she's pretty. I'm not jealous of her I'd much rather do what I do than what she does

NotNowBono · 30/11/2015 16:32

Oh, well, if you're going to bring Geri Halliwell into this as an example of How Popstars Can Mature Gracefully in a MN-Approved Way, then I know you're just in it for the goads...

sugar21 · 30/11/2015 16:37

Well tbo she's completely useless at laundry, did you see the state of asleeeeeeeee's kecks in that kiss and tell pic .

tomatotoad · 30/11/2015 16:43

I think the op is on a wind up. The Geri Halliwell link is a give-away.

Sparklingbrook · 30/11/2015 16:50

Geri Halliwell has death fans. Sad

She has grown up now and married that F1 team boss but that's a whole other story....

abbieanders · 30/11/2015 17:00

She even signs so her death fans can enjoy her music.

I didn't think I'd ever hear anything particularly interesting about GH, but this definitely is interesting. So many questions.

Hmm toilet attendant also a part- time student of a law degree so perhaps not the low wage, poor person portrayed on here.

Lots of people don't like lawyers or students but punching them isn't the answer.

Pepperpot99 · 30/11/2015 17:01

I love this thread so much. Such a larf!

IamactuallytherealJeff · 30/11/2015 17:03

Cheryl had liposuction on the legs she hated then extensive work on her teeth which have clearly made her unable to eat properly.
I think she's a good dancer. But she's not very pleasant at times

Roussette · 30/11/2015 17:09

Grin Grin stop it you lot will you haha Grin

She was ordinary nice looking girl but then had her teeth fixed and god alone knows how much other work. She used to be beautiful, now she looks older than her years and strained.

I deffo think OP is her Mum. Or her Agent.

Sorry but how fucking much do toilet attendants earn? Hmm
