“let’s go eskimo”? Not to be a Karen but the word eskimo is sometimes thought to be offensive, obvs no research or PR teamNo one is immune from cozzy livs it seems
Her need for privacy a la Meghan and Harry has bit her well and truly on the arse
The paparazzi were camping outside her house and stalking her until it got so bad that she had to get an injunction in 2011. And I'd say she got very positive coverage from the tabloids until 2018 when Dan Wootton majorly turned against her and started pushing the narrative that she was old and washed up. Once you're getting headlines like this it's probably not hard to walk away, combined with the fact that she has a child that she adores and is happy to devote her life to.The comments are interesting bit harsh, she’s only 40!
For someone who dreamed her whole life of being a star she seems to have given it up very easily tho. The press intrusion she got wasn’t THAT bad, it was mainly positive coverage
Yeah but in 2018 she wasn't really a thing any more. To be honest in 2011 her star was slightlyyy waning as it's when she married the Fernandez Versini and her name became too long so nobody could be bothered any more and she got the injunction actually just on the cusp of her becoming irrelevant so bad timingThe paparazzi were camping outside her house and stalking her until it got so bad that she had to get an injunction in 2011.

She married that guy in 2014. After 2011 she still had three more #1s, a solo arena tour, and the Girls Aloud reunion - plus she earned about £4m doing another two series of X Factor. It was when she took a long break to have Bear that her career suffered the most, and then there's the obvious double standard in the music industry and the media of how receptive they are to a female popstar in her 30s vs a male popstar in his 30s.Yeah but in 2018 she wasn't really a thing any more.

Fair enough, you were obvs around the same period as I was so your opinion is valid, but there was a definite shift after like 2011 ( you’re right about the marriage dates, my bad). By 2012 she was still on the X Factor but kind of limping along, it and her heyday was over, she was kind of a bit of a jokeShe married that guy in 2014.

The comments have a nasty flavour to them as well, always going on about her being a Geordie as a negative thing. It’s a special type of misogyny towards working class womenI feel a bit sorry for Cheryl, not saying I’m her biggest fan or that she’s been faultless, but I can imagine it must be quite isolating feeling like people hate you and want you to fail like it’s seemed for a while now with the way the press write about her. The comments on DM articles are always very negative as well.
Don't mean to split hairs but her second solo album released in 2010 still went platinum, and that was without having a song as big as Fight For This Love to drive sales (though it still had a #1 single). 2011 was the year she got sacked from XF USA and didn't really do much for the rest of the year. 2012 was when she had a #1 single and a #2 album (only blocked from #1 by Justin Bieber, who released his album on the same day), along with a solo arena tour. In the same year she had a #2 single with Girls Aloud and their second greatest hits album made the top 10, followed by the reunion tour in 2013. She didn't return to X Factor until 2014, when she got two #1 singles and a top 10 album. She also still had all her lucrative brand deals with L'Oreal, Beats, and Apple. I wouldn't say she was a joke at that point with all those achievements.Fair enough, you were obvs around the same period as I was so your opinion is valid, but there was a definite shift after like 2011 ( you’re right about the marriage dates, my bad).

2015 was when negative comments were made about her weight and she was clearly going through a hard time due to the divorce from Jean-Bernard, and the only work she did was for her charity and another series of X Factor. She got pregnant in 2016 and only did L'Oreal advertisements and a couple of minor televison appearances, as well as working on her charity, until she came back in 2018. That was the year when Dan Wootton began lashing out that Cheryl and her manager didn't give him the story of her breakup with Liam and he pursued an agenda against her. Then by the time she released new music at the end of the year it had been four years since her last material and the music industry had transformed massively with the rise of streaming. That's when she started flopping, but up until then she was still very successful by any measure.

I'm sure there's still an audience for it if the music is good. There was quite a bit of hype and interest for Love Made Me Do It. It was only the poor quality and controversy about whether she had surgery that sunk it. She still has over a million monthly listeners on Spotify, which is more than for Girls Aloud.I like Cheryl I think she could still bring out some good tunes but without an album.
If she came back with a banger like Call my name she could do well.I'm sure there's still an audience for it if the music is good. There was quite a bit of hype and interest for Love Made Me Do It.
