To think that Cheryl F-V's 'romance' with Liam Payne is a publicity stunt

I mean who really gives a crap who she's shagging but oh no, she has to offer hints via social media and then the big unveiling of this latest celebrity 'couple', photos of them hand-in-hand on a dinner date [vom]

And just in case any of the plebs don't quite get that this is 'true love', she wears a big fuck off gold necklace spelling it out Hmm

Is Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, or whatever the fuck her surname is this week, a big tedious, attention seeking bore or AIBU?

Are you giving this issue some attention? Yes, you are.

FatimaLovesBread · 11/03/2016 23:09

Yanbu. I vote massive publicity stunt engineered by Simon Cowell to keep her in the press with positive stories rather than ones about another failed marriage or how thin she is.

TooOldForGlitter · 11/03/2016 23:10

I couldn't give two shits who she's rubbing belly buttons with but yes, this is soooo a publicity stunt.

Samcro · 11/03/2016 23:11

i hope she is having "fun:

TooOldForGlitter · 11/03/2016 23:12

I don't think she's a bore or whatever. I'm not interested in celebrity culture but that's her job. She's just doing her job. If fake relationships are part of that then meh.

FlyingRussianUnicorn · 11/03/2016 23:12

YANBU. I don't like to be a twat but she is common as muck. She should of lost her chance after beating up that cleaner in the toilets- something like a week after winning Pop Idol? I guess it does pay to be pretty. Sigh.

SeaMagic · 11/03/2016 23:14

Well you can hardly avoid it FourEyesGood Hmm

Simon fucking Cowell has his insidious tentacles in every media and news outlet in the land.

It is all over my MSN homepage so I keep seeing those gormless faces simpering at each other although I hear both bat for the other side

I would rather hear about Cheryl and Liam than bloody Jeremy McConnell and Stephanie Davis all the time!!

"gormless faces simpering at each other" Grin

He does come across as a bit gormless and when you watch the band in interviews everyone seems to glaze over when he starts droning on.

PrimalLass · 11/03/2016 23:20

I keep getting distracted by the 1D crazies and their stories about whether Louis's baby is actually fake and actually a reborn doll. So Cheryl and Liam seems fairly plausible compared to that.

MargotLovedTom · 11/03/2016 23:20

I have literally no idea who Jeremy and Stephanie are.

kelper · 11/03/2016 23:20

seamagic i read tentacles as testicles 😂😂😂

notamummy10 · 11/03/2016 23:23

MargotLovesTom they were on this year's celebrity big brother, they're basically z-listers!

But the media constantly report about them and their on/off/on/off 'relationship' Confused

BirthdayBetty · 11/03/2016 23:25

Aren't they both 'beards' for one another?

SeaMagic · 11/03/2016 23:25

kelper Grin Grin Grin

Margot yes, who the feck are Jeremy and Stephanie???

Better than digging holes for a living I guess.

Weird that you can make money doing this though.

Complete stunt.

Samcro · 11/03/2016 23:28

come one am I alone in wanting this to be real?\I am not a fan of her (and him? who is he??) but I like the idea of her having a good time

HidingUnderARock · 11/03/2016 23:28

I don't know who either of those people are.

(smug)

FourEyesGood · 11/03/2016 23:29

Well you can hardly avoid it
I am managing to do so, even though I'm slightly drunk. Should be easy enough sober. Anyway, my (implied) point stands (I think. I am slightly drunk after all. But thanks for my first ever eye-roll on MN).

notamummy10 · 11/03/2016 23:31

Cheryl F-V/Cole/Tweedy made up 1/5 of Girls Aloud and Liam makes up 1/4 of One Direction, the shite x-factor's most successful act.. Very popular with teenage girls!

BirthdayBetty · 11/03/2016 23:31

Aye, allegedly

bakeoffcake · 11/03/2016 23:33

What's the betting they are both on the X Factor panel next series. Of course it's a publicity stunt.

Mind you if they did get married she'd be Cherly Payne, which just about sums her up.
