Cheryl parties at HTC Beats Event, and gets a hangover!
We didnt get any drunken late-night rants on Twitter but we did get some hungover tweets this morning!
Cheryl had partied at the launch of the HTC Sensation XL handset and HTC’s recent partnership with Beats, with plenty other VIP’s (including Lady Gaga) last night.
Twitpics showed Cheryl having a great time with Will.i.am and plenty of Champagne.
This morning, she felt the force of the bubbles as she tweeted:
Why why why why why why why why why . I just walked past the mirror and caught a glimpse of someone. I have no idea who she is . That’s it. Me and alcohol are not friends.
Nicola Roberts tweeted her to remind her she is due at her birthday party celebrations this weekend, writing: “Girlfriend you better backtrack. Me you and Martini have a date on Saturday night! BIRTHDAY PARRRRRTTTTYYYYY TIME!”
Cheryl responded: “Don’t worry chick I have 2 days r&r and “I’ll be back” *arnie voice* ..!! I’m a soldier did you not know. ”
Sarah Harding insists she didn’t snub Cheryl’s birthday bash
SARAH HARDING was keen for me to get a message out there to Girls Aloud fans that she didn’t snub bandmate CHERYL COLE’s Belvedere vodka-sponsored birthday bash last week.
Sarah, who was in Ibiza this week, tells me: “I was in the studio in the country working on music that evening and lost track of time. Cheryl knows I would have tried my best to get there. So there’s no feud.”
The star also told me: “I’m not Hardcore Harding these days. I’m living in the country, planning my wedding and enjoying ‘me’ time. People will be surprised by what I’ve been working on. I love a big song, I mean Mustang Sally is my sort of track. So take that as a guideline.” Go girl.
Cheryl Cole was smiling for the cameras for the first time in weeks as she tested out the theory that blondes have more fun by celebrating her 28th birthday with her X Factor replacement Tulisa Contostavlos.
Before being spotted with her new blonde locks earlier in the week, Cheryl hadn’t been seen in weeks, following her dramatic axing from Simon Cowell’s American version of The X Factor.
But as the Girls Aloud singer turned 28, she chose to come out of hiding in style, smiling for the cameras as she arrived at the Sanderson Hotel in London, where she was joined by none other than her replacement on the X Factor judging panel, Tulisa from N-Dubz.
The two singers have apparently kept on good terms after Tulisa took over Cheryl’s role on the ITV juggernaut, with Tulisa even revealing that her predecessor sent her flowers to say good luck on her first day in the job.
Cheryl’s close friend and mentor Will.I.Am also joined in the fun, despite having been evacuated from the five-star Hilton hotel earlier in the evening, after a fire erupted in the basement kitchen.
He was accompanied to Cheryl’s birthday party by Black Eyed Peas band mate Fergie, who looked casual in jeans and knee-high black boots.
Cheryl, on the other hand, was dressed up to the nines in a white sixties-style mini dress by Stella McCartney, teamed with strappy high heels and large gold earrings.
The most striking thing about Cheryl’s appearance, however, was her new hair. The former X Factor judge has been famed for her walnut brown tresses for years and fans haven’t seen her with her current honey-coloured hair since the early Girls Aloud days.
Showing off her light asymmetrical bob last night, the singer was clearly making a clean break as she partied with her A-list friends, including a few of her fellow Girls Aloud members.
Kimberley Walsh matched Cheryl’s white number with her own white wrap dress, while Nicola Roberts turned up in a typically quirky multicoloured maxi dress and some hair extensions.
Nicola and Kimberley attend Sarah’s engagement party
Sarah Harding held her engagement party last night, in London. Nadine and Cheryl were noticeably absent from last night’s party, although Nadine did tweet a nice message on Twitter (and im sure she phoned the bride-to-be too) saying she was sorry she couldnt make it:
I hope my lovely Sarah H has a great party tonight. Shame I can’t be there due to commitments in US. We will have to have another one. Xx
Crates of Moet & Chandon champagne were seen outside the venue earlier in the day, but the girls still left the party looking fresh-faced as if they hadn’t touched a drop.
Kimberley wore a black dress very similar to the one Cheryl wore at last years Pride of Britain Awards. Nicola wore a brown lace and burgundy underlay dress by Vivienne Westwood.
Sarah went for dark glamour with Forties-style hair and a daring split in her black floor-length gown.
Other famous faces who attended were Will Mellor, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Jason Statham, Jo Wood and Henry Holland. See pictures of the girls arriving and leaving on the forum below
SHE’S had the year from hell, so if any girl’s aloud a laugh it’s Cheryl Cole – and one man is determined to make sure she has a good time.
Her rapper pal Will.i.am is throwing a glitzy party in Los Angeles in Cheryl’s honour.
The Black Eyed Peas frontman wants to make sure 27-year-old Cheryl celebrates her successes this year – despite it also being her toughest 12 months yet.
The Geordie lass has been through a heart-breaking divorce from Chelsea player Ashley Cole, survived a bout of malaria and is exhausted after taking part in the most controversial X Factor so far.
But her second solo album, Messy Little Raindrops, has topped the charts, as has her most recent single, Promise This. So she deserves to pop a few champagne corks at the star-studded shindig hosted by her number one fan, Will.i.am.
He also wants to make sure Chezza meets the big players of the US music industry before she launches her singing career Stateside in 2011. My insider tells me: “Cheryl just wants to celebrate after the tough year she’s had. And this bash will be mad, crazy, with music pumping and 200 semi-naked dancers to entertain her and make her forget all her worries of 2010.
THE rift between the rest of GIRLS ALOUD and NADINE COYLE just gets bigger – they shunned her G-A-Y London gig on Saturday for a Halloween bash at SARAH HARDING’s country pile.
Sarah got gory next to PETER DICKSON, the voice of the X Factor.
CHERYL COLE was a purple, faceless flesh-eater. NICOLA ROBERTS turned up as Marie Antoinette and KIMBERLEY WALSH was the Grim Reaper.
Sarah Harding Shares Her Fashion And Party Secrets
Girls Aloud’s Sarah Harding showed the up and coming pop stars how to party when she attended the launch of DJ Hero 2 in London.
Her partner in crime was Noel Gallagher’s ex-wife Meg Mathews and the pair of them gamely tried out the DJ box and then danced to Mark Ronson’s expert set until the early hours of the morning.
They even stayed later than The Saturdays’ Vanessa White, showing that age is no barrier when it comes to raving.
Sarah – formerly known as hardcore Harding because of her late night antics – hasn’t hit the party circuit so much since Girls Aloud went on their break.
In fact, she’s probably been one of the quietest with Cheryl Cole pursuing a solo career, appearing on X Factor and designing a range of De Grisogono jewellery, Nicola Roberts launching a range of make-up and Kimberly Walsh presenting TV shows and designing her own jewellery range.
But Very caught up with the couple in the VIP area at the party for a quick chat to find out what they were up to and what was on their shopping lists for Halloween and Christmas parties:
QS: What are you guys working on right now?
SH: “I’ve just got back from LA after my third audition for X men 3. I am proud I got to that stage and next time the part will be mine.”
