She has always sung flatly, anyone remember her audition for Popstars? The judges praised her on her looks, not talent.

Her comments aren’t taken seriously, like Simons.

Neither are they useful critque (constructive) like Danni’s.

However as Cheryl is being set up as the ‘national sweetheart’ I think Rhydian would not have made those comments to promote an album, he would know that many impressionable people would snub Rhydian for pointing out the obvious.

I am a Cheryl fan, but I would be the first to admit she can’t sing very well.

& before teenagers attack my comment – No I can’t sing either, but it doesnt mean I shouldn’t point out that somebody else can or can’t. I would understand that people may not be happy with the idea that I would criticise or commend somebody elses talent (or lack of).

Exactly what Rhydian Roberts did.

& I wish both Cheryl Cole & Rhydian Roberts all the best with their respective careers.

This is an irresponsible article, designed to make trouble.
