Cheryl Cole

Profession: Singer
Place/Date of Birth: Newcastle upon Tyne, 30 June 2020

After her night in the cell, Cheryl was granted police bail on Saturday morning and immediately rang her mum Joan Callaghan in Heaton, Newcastle upon Tyne. Joan said last night: "She is so upset and worried about her future but what has really devastated her and me are the accusations that she is a racist. "

She grew up loving music made by coloured artists and Javine Hylton, who is black, was one of her closest friend on the Popstars show." Oh, so that’s alright then.

A Polydor spokesman said last night: "A decision will be taken on today as to how to proceed. Cheryl strenuously denies she made racist remarks."
