Too cool for school: Cher Lloyd says her 'unhappy' critics just have 'insecurities' - and reveals her bizarre crush on Mr Bean

By NADIA MENDOZA

Cheeky: Singer has a lot of attitude and has learned to ignore her 'haters'


Most teenagers would crumble at the barrage of backlash Cher Lloyd has received.

But the little fighter has hushed her critics by saying they're just 'insecure'.

The Malvern pop princess says the only reason people are so quick to bully her is because they're 'unhappy' themselves.


Cover girl: Cher features in Bliss


But with Simon Cowell's support, nearly half a million Twitter supporters and a debut album on the way, she is the one having the last laugh.

Cher, soon to be 18, even addressed the issues in her first single Swagger Jagger, singing: 'Hi hater/ Kiss kiss/ See you later.'

Having catapulted into the spotlight by coming fourth on last year's X Factor, the petite star has matured beyond her years.

She said: 'Some people find it hard to come to terms with the fact that everyone is different.


Tattooed tearaway: She's not even 18, but feisty Cher Lloyd has a mature attitude


'I think it all boils down to their own insecurities - if you’re unhappy with yourself, you’re going to pick on someone else, and that’s what they’re doing. I feel sorry for them.'

Speaking of her upcoming track, she said: 'There are certain lines in the song that basically explain that, no matter what I do, people won’t stop writing about me and talking about me all the time.

'I’m still in people’s minds, whether they like me or they hate me.'



Attitude: Cher sports multi-coloured hair as she performs at T4 On The Beach


Cher said she still speaks to Syco boss Cowell, saying: 'We have a really good relationship - it’s a truthful one.

'If there’s anything that he doesn’t feel will benefit me or lead me in the right direction, he’ll give me advice, which is the whole reason I went to the show - for his advice.

'To see whether I was good enough. He’s like an uncle. Uncle Si!
'Yeah, I do text him. I never put kisses though! Always a smiley face.'

She also credited her fans with giving her strength, adding: 'It’s really good. I call them my brats because they’re feisty.

'I don’t even have to open my mouth - they do it for me. I couldn’t do it without them.'

Cher also revealed her latest bizarre crush, telling Bliss: 'I’ve got a crush on Mr Bean.

Where DO you get your inspiration from? X Factor judge Tulisa copies Cheryl Cole as she dons hooded dress for T4 On The Beach

By SARAH BULL

Where do you get your inspiration from? N-Dubz star Tulisa Contostavlos wore a hooded dress similar in style to the ones Cheryl Cole wore back in 2010


They've got more than a little in common - they are two of the biggest names in music who have found themselves on the X Factor judging panel.

But it seems N-Dubz star Tulisa Contostavlos is following in Cheryl Cole's footsteps in more ways than one, after she was seen wearing a hooded dress similar in style to the ones favoured by Cheryl as she performed at T4 On The Beach today.

The 22-year-old singer took to the stage in Weston-Super-Mare today wearing a super-tight grey minidress, which she teamed with black shoe boots as she performed with N-Dubz.



Sexy: Tulisa showed off her figure in the sparkly silver dress as she performed with the group at T4 On The Beach in Weston-Super-Mare


However, the dress was very similar to the outfits sported by Cheryl when she was promoting her album 3 Words in 2010.

But Tulisa didn't seem to mind that she had taken fashion inspiration from the Girls Aloud star as she performed for excited fans.

Afterwards, she tweeted: 'Yeees T4 on the beach! SMASHED IT! NO MIMING! U know how we dooooo! Off home 2 feed the dog n cook dinner haha x'


That's what you call short! Tulisa displayed her enviable legs in the dress, which she teamed with black shoe boots


Tulisa was named one of the judges on the new X Factor UK panel earlier this year alongside Louis Walsh, Gary Barlow and Kelly Rowland.

But Cheryl showed there were no hard feelings about the singer replacing her on the panel when she invited Tulisa to her 28th birthday party in London earlier this month.

The N-Dubz singer previously revealed that her predecessor sent her flowers to say good luck on her first day on the job and the two soon became friends.


Working it: Tulisa performed some of the group's best-known tracks with the rest of N-Dubz, incluing Playing With Fire


Going down well: One dancer certainly seemed pretty appreciative of Tulisa's outfit as she danced away


X Factor host Dermot O'Leary said recently he was excited for people to see the new X Factor panel when the show starts later this year.

Describing the judges, he said: 'Gary has been majestic and presidential, and Kelly has this accent dipped in honey and she just sounds wonderful.

'When you hear her talk you realise she was one third of Destiny's Child and they were the world's biggest girl group.


Sexy in black: Tulisa wore a pair of black lace-up leggings and a corset-style top as she performed with N-Dubz at T In The Park the day before


Belting it out: Tulisa has certainly been keeping busy with her X Factor duties and her N-Dubz gigs


'And of course Tulisa has been in the industry since she was 11.'

It has certainly been a busy weekend for Tulisa, because as well as performing at T4 On The Beach, they also took to the stage at T In The Park in Balado, Scotland, the day before.

Tulisa wore a similarly sexy outfit of a pair of black lace-up trousers, teamed with a black corset-style top and a black and white leather jacket.

A close shave: Cher Lloyd shows off her new shaved hairstyle as she launches her pop career

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

New look: Cher Lloyd shows off her new partially-shaved hairstyle as she arrives at the Channel 4 studios in London today


With her new debut solo single coming out, Cher Lloyd is hoping to make an impact on the charts.

So what better way to get maximum publicity by changing hew look to coincide with the release of her single.

Heading to the Channel 4 studios today, the 17-year-old showed off her new partially-shaven hairstyle.


Perhaps in a bid to be taken more seriously as an urban artist, the Malvern-raised singer has taken a razor to the right side of her head.


But fashionistas may think Lloyd is a tad behind the times with this style, which came to prominence among urban singers two years ago.

American R&B singer Cassie shaved her part of her long locks off in April 2009, followed by Rihanna a few months later.

In January 2010, Will Smith's daughter Willow also shaved her hair, with ex-Spice Girl Mel B and her daughter Phoenix following suit a few weeks later.

Since leaping to fame as a contestant on last year's X Factor, Lloyd has loved to experiment with her fame.

While on the show, she wore long brunette hair extensions, with a briefly flirtation with red hair dye for a few weeks.

During the X Factor Live tour earlier this year, she returned to a red - but more of a Ronald McDonald hue.

Lloyd is currently promoting her debut single Swagger Jagger, with the video premiering online last week and has already received over 2million hits.
