Cheryl Cole covers June 2012 GQ Magazine
She’s gearing up for the June 18th release of her third studio album, A Million Lights, and, as part of the promotions, Cheryl Cole took over the cover of the June 2012 issue of British GQ magazine.
The 28-year-old English pop star oozed sexiness for the Mariano Vivanco shot spread while opening up about topics including her yearning for a husband and children, as well as her soft spot for Prince Harry.
With the issue set to hit newsstands on May 3rd, highlights from Miss Cole’s interview are as follows. For more, be sure to pay a visit to British GQ!
On her desire to find a husband and have children:
“I’d love kids. I’m obsessed with babies. Of course I’ve thought about baby names. A million times. I like (the name) Alfie for a little boy. I know that is what I was put on Earth to do – to be a mother.”
On Simon Cowell having reached out to her to make amends after her ‘X Factor’ firing:
“It felt great, actually. When I landed back in England there was a message from Simon, saying ‘Hello, Cheryl. So, now that you’ve blown me up in Afghanistan, can we talk?’ I’m not one of those people who holds a grudge.”
On her soft spot for Prince Harry:
“I think he’s amazing and I think you can relate to him because he’s made mistakes. He’s cool. Although, I think I would be Cougarville in that relationship.”
On missing intimacy now that she’s a single lady:
“I am a woman and I like sex.”
In her first major interview of 2012, Cheryl opens the floor to questions sent into Marie Claire by the British public and talks openly about everything from style and food, to her career and regrets.

British women voted her the world’s most beautiful woman. Cheryl Cole tells Stylist how she does it.
The anarchic thud of M.I.A’s Bad Girls is blaring from the speakers. Five smartly dressed security guards – here to keep an eye on some very expensive diamonds – are huddled in a corner and, somewhere inside a triptych of polystyrene walls is a diminutive Cheryl Cole. We are at a studio in north London, as today, Cheryl is lending Stylist her powerful eyes to showcase this season’s foremost eyeliner looks. Five hours, four looks, four hairstyles and a spot of lunch later, we sit down to chat about her life in beauty. Relaxed, warm and selfeffacing, it’s proving difficult not to fall under her spell…
A smokey eye is your signature look. How old were you when you started wearing it?
When I was about 12, I started experimenting with the little pots of liquid eyeliner you used to get. Now, it’s so much easier – I use a liquid liner across the top of my lashes. Starting in the corner of the eye and following it across, then I always use a black kohl for the inside of the eye and just smudge it in. It takes a while to actually get there, but I think it’s quite easy to do. And remember, everyone’s eyes are different, so you just have to go with it.
What’s the essential element?
Lashings of mascara. I apply multiple layers for the full effect. I don’t go as crazy as I used to, but I do like the false eyelash look so I’ve been using L’Oréal False Lash Telescopic Mascara, it’s got four different sides to the wand, so you don’t use as much.
You obviously have a lot of influence on modern beauty. Who were your idols growing up?
It wasn’t actually anybody in the limelight. I always had older friends and we didn’t have much money but they’d always have glamorous clothes and gorgeous make-up. I used to look up to them and say, “Wow, she’s so pretty.” But, that was just local girls from my area. I wanted to be like them when I grew up. The girls really take care of themselves in the north. Especially in Newcastle, there’s definitely more of a cultural feel down south, whereas up north, you can definitely spot a local girl from a mile away. You can tell if someone’s out of town – they’ll have their coat on during a night out.
Do you think you have the same effect on your fans?
I still feel like that little girl. That’s the weirdest thing for me especially when I’m out in America and people are like, “So what’s your background, where you from?” When I tell them, they find it difficult to believe that I’m from a council estate. They’re like, “No way!” In my mind I’m still that person. But to them I’m a pop star, it really is the strangest feeling.
In your latest ad campaign for L’Oréal Casting Crème Gloss you star alongside three competition winners, chosen by you. How was it working with your fans?
Shooting the advert for L’Oréal Casting with the girls was amazing because I remember how it felt when I first got the call to say L’Oréal really wanted me to be involved with their next product. At first I thought I was being punked. But, they were like, “No, really.” So I knew the exact feeling the girls must have felt knowing they were going to be saying, ‘You’re worth it’.
Nicola Roberts filmed this exclusive shoot for the Give Up Clothes For Good campaign, which asks stars to donate their normal lifestyles to help raise awareness of the work that Cancer Research UK does. Nicola donated her glamorous lifestyle to be shot in a working men’s pub for this shoot.
The campaign runs from 1st-30th April 2012 with special donation bags available free in all TK Maxx stores from late March.

Kimberley Walsh in new Puma Bodytrain SS12 campaign
Brand new pictures and a behind the scenes video came out today of Kimberley’s new PUMA ad campaign.
On her body, Kimberley tells us “Everything’s a bit tighter, everything’s a bit more compact,’ the 30-year-old says. ‘Things don’t wobble, so that’s got to be a bonus!”
On her exercise routine, she explains “Currently I like to run outdoors, I’m not a fan of running in the gym because I get bored. By running outside I can be nosey and see what’s going on.”
“My favourite workout at the gym is the free weights, it gives me the most rewards and makes me feel tightened and toned. I’ve recently got into Yoga and Pilates they both help me stretch out and I’m feeling much more flexible these days.”
“Exercise makes me feel energetic and since working out I don’t feel so tired. Exercise has made me more toned and has made me pretty strong which I’m proud about.”
Kimberley also revealed that she enjoys working out with BFF Cheryl Cole, adding: “She’s really disciplined as well, so we kind of spur each other on.”
