Nadine Coyle ‘Creates A Bad Image’ Says Max Clifford
Max Clifford thinks Nadine Coyle goes the wrong way about handling the media, as he believes she’s created a bad impression of herself.
The Insatiable singer is currently promoting her first solo album and has been hitting the headlines over her so-called rivalry with Cheryl Cole, as well as rumours she is holding back a Girls Aloud reunion.
Now the PR guru says of Nadine’s public image: “She’s always given the impression she’s above it all. Her subtle digs at Cheryl for not singing live on The X Factor have turned a lot of people against her.”
Clifford also says Coyle didn’t make it in Los Angeles (where she lives) so has been forced to return to the UK to try and win over fans “who’ve moved on and forgotten you.”
He adds to Now magazine: “She’s shown no vulnerability, no modesty and no humility and those are traits we want in people we put on a pedestal.”
Despite criticising her, Max believes it’s “not too late for her to turn it around,” and win over the British public again.
Cheryl Cole will “never” leave Britain to live in the US, according to her close friend Will.i.am.
The Black Eyed Peas star admits Cheryl still hasn’t fully recovered after her battle with malaria, despite bravely returning to work.
Will.i.am, 35, is helping the 27-yearold put her X Factor contestants through their paces at the judges’ house stage of the competition.
Cheryl has regularly spent time in the States and is considering spending more time there as her career goes from strength to strength.
But close friend Will.i.am insists she is a home girl who will never turn her back on the UK.
He added: “Despite the levels of success and fame she has reached, she is a real home girl, and from the conversations I have had Jwith her I never see her leaving the UK full-time.
“Yes she will be in LA more when the US X Factor starts and she might even buy a base there, but I don’t see anybody or anything that will make her decide the US is home.”
Cheryl is said to have signed a £1.5million deal to co-host the US version of the hit show next year.
Cheryl Cole to join American X Factor in multi-million deal
Cheryl Cole will join Simon Cowell on the American X Factor in a multi-million pound deal in a move that will spectacularly launch her Hollywood career.
The 27-year-old will quit the British X Factor to be a judge on the new version of the television talent hit which will debut in the States next year, the Daily Mail has learned.
A source close to millionaire Cowell, 50, last night confirmed the move, telling the Daily Mail: ‘I would say it’s a good bet that Cheryl is coming to America. It’s something that Simon and Cheryl have been discussing for months. You know, it’s a very exciting prospect for everyone involved to have Cheryl on board.’
Cowell helped the petite star make the move away from her pop band Girls Aloud when he handed her the X Factor role two years ago. Since then she has launched a successful solo music career – and has seen her fame soar.
The star, who has an estimated £10 million fortune, will earn £1.5 million for this series of the X Factor – but will make up to twice more from her US television deal as the budget for the show is considerately larger.
She has spent weeks in Los Angeles working on her music and spending time with her close friend Derek Hough as she recovered from malaria. And she was even in the Californian sunshine as her divorce from cheating Chelsea footballer was finalised two weeks ago.
The Mail had told how this will be Mrs Cole’s last series of the X Factor and a show source said: ‘When Cheryl goes to America she will also launch her music career there too. It’s the next part of her big plan, she’s an incredibly hard worker and she will definitely get a boost by appearing on the X Factor, which is set to be a sure-fire hit.

Cheryl back in recording studio after malaria scare
Cheryl Cole has returned to the studio for the first time since her battle with malaria.
The Girls Aloud singer worked until 8pm on Monday at an LA sound stage.
Cheryl, 27, then went back yesterday to continue recording her second album.
‘She booked the studio for a week, though she’ll see how many days she can manage,’ a source tells the Daily Star. ‘But she is not the sort of person to lie in bed waiting to get better…
‘Cheryl is really geared towards making it in the US and feels well enough to push on.’
Cheryl is on holiday in the States with rumoured boyfriend Derek Hough, 25.
Nadine Coyle continues to raise eyebrows about whether or not she intends to return to Girls Aloud when they regroup next year. But I hear that on a solo level Nadine couldn’t be happier – her album’s coming together nicely and should be out in November. A source tells me: “WILLIAM ORBIT’s produced the majority of it and the results are great.
She’s got some huge pop songs. Some of them even TINA TURNER-esque.”
It sounds like Girls Aloud aren’t in any rush to get back into the studio anytime soon.
It feels like ages since they announced they were “taking a break”, but Kimberley Walsh, below, reveals: “Things have taken off individually more than we thought and we’re all enjoying it so we wanna go with it.”
During their break all the girls have kept themselves busy, especially Cheryl Cole who’s juggled her job as an X Factor judge with being a chart-topper.
“Whether we’re definitely going to get back together, next March or whenever, we just don’t know,” Kimberly adds.
Gulp! If you ask me it sounds like all the girls have realised things are working out without them having to share the limelight …
