Cheryl after One Direction?
X Factor judge Cheryl Cole wants to tempt One Direction away from Simon Cowell after spotting their long term potential. The show’s vocal coach Yvie Burnett has revealed to Buzz that two-time winner Cheryl has considered prising the boy band from their mentor. “Louis and Niall from the band were sort-of chatting Cheryl up the other night, and she started teasing them, asking if they would like her as a mentor instead of Simon.” “She understands best why they would be attractive to teenage girls, and is always flirting with them because she sees what the young girls see in them.”
