Here is the artwork for Nicola’s third single ‘Yo-Yo’!
Speaking about the track, Nic explained: “The song is about being in that position with a guy when you really don’t know whether you’re coming or going.”
“Being in that position can make you really vulnerable. It’s the dark, desperate and doubtful side of love.”
The CD single, due for release on 2 January, will feature a live rendition of the track, as well as a demo version of Sticks + Stones.

Nicola Roberts thinks her solo album surprised her Girls Aloud bandmates, with Cheryl Cole expressing her shock at some of the tracks.
The Girls Aloud star recently released her debut record ‘Cinderella’s Eyes’ and bandmate Cheryl wasn’t expecting to be so emotionally affected by the music.
Nicola said: “The other girls love it. I think they’ve been a little bit surprised by the music. Cheryl told me, ‘I laughed, I cried, I was shocked, I was this, I was that, I was every emotion listening to the album.’ That’s what I wanted, for people to be able to relate to it.”
Nicola admitted she was surprised by the public reaction as she didn’t know what to expect.
She said: “It’s been amazing, just unbelievable, especially after working so long on something so personal.
“I didn’t build myself up for anything. I’ve always loved to write and I really wanted to get into the studio to learn and just get better at it. I suppose I wanted to become a little bit more legit in what I said I did for a living.”
Cheryl Cole’s manager will.i.am says Justin Bieber is desperate to duet with her.
Justin Bieber has been chasing a duet with Cheryl Cole for “over a year”.
The ‘Baby’ singer has called Cheryl “beautiful” and flirted with her when he performed on British TV show ‘The X Factor’ – on which she was a judge – in 2010, and her manager, will.i.am is hoping they will soon appear on record together.
will.i.am said: “I am very tight with Justin’s mentor, Usher, and Cheryl has met him as well. We are like one tight little family and there is a lot of potentially exciting stuff in the pipeline.
“Justin is a big fan of Cheryl and has been asking Usher if he can set something up with her for over a year now.”
will.i.am also described how Cheryl is working with top producers and stars for her third album, which he believes will make her a huge star in the US.
He added to heat magazine: “This album is going to be the best material she has ever released. Some of the biggest names in the industry are working with her. When Cheryl is happiest she is infectious, and this is the happiest she has been in a long time.
“Will she break the US? When people meet Cheryl for the first time they want to meet her again because she is just great company. So the answer to your question is yes, without a doubt.”
Cinderella’s Eyes has become one of the most anticipated releases of the year, an incredible mix of colossal pop melodies, underground sounds, singing, rapping and astonishing honesty – and the great news is that it’s out now!
Nicola said: “I’ve been given an opportunity to make the album I want to make, so I’ve absolutely put every last bit of heart and soul into it.”
For anyone who pre-ordered Cinderella’s Eyes on iTunes, please be aware that there are some technical issues which means you won’t be able to redeem the album today. This is being corrected and should all be back to normal for this evening when you should be able to redeem your album.

Check out 5 full tracks taken from Nicola’s album Cinderella’s Eyes. These include Lucky Day, Yo-yo, I, Take a Bite and sticks + stones.
Each song comes with an introduction from Nicola herself, which i think is a brilliant touch before hearing the song for the first time.
Top quotes from Nicola on her music
On her track I : “I had a list of all the things I wanted to say and I just say the list and it worked… I don’t like druggies, I don’t like that bad boyfriends wear beautiful disguises and can screw you over and you’re blinded by love. I don’t like the arseholes who leave comments on the internet…”
On her track Yo-yo: “Yo-yo is where I thought that everything had really turned a corner and I found my direction. I’m really proud of Yo-yo, I love the song.”
On how her track Lucky Day: “It was right in the middle of fashion week- so I’d run off to a show and then run back and write the rest of the song. It was really bizarre.”
