In a bizarre move, Cheryl Cole has ditched her manager of six years and run off to Will.I.Am - the music producer, rapper and Black Eyed Peas frontman who she was supposedly enjoying a game of shags with this time last year. As far as we are aware, Will.i.am has never managed to produce a listenable pop hit, so how he plans to manage to make Cheryl Cole a listenable pop hit in the US is inexplicable. But at least it gives us fresh hope that in a couple of year's time we might never have to hear from her again...

We're not going to hide the fact that we really, really, really fucking hate Will.I.Am. He's a lego-wearing twat with an ego the size of his wallet who churns out insufferable attempts at music on a weekly basis. Aside from 'Where Is The Love?', which was admittedly a lovely song, he's contributed the square root of F all the to the world, yet he still goes about his business like he invented oxygen, or the toaster, or something equally amazing.

And now he's about to inflict our country's most over-rated pop star, the nation's ex-nightclub attendant attacking princess, Cheryl Cole, onto his own country. Their poor, poor ears.

The NOTW's 'US insider' thinks it's going to be the greatest thing ever to happen to her ever and stuff:

"This is all about taking Cheryl's career to a whole new level. Will.i.am believes in her to the degree where he's prepared to stake his reputation on making her a success. He's going to be responsible for her career worldwide.

 

One of the great things about Will is that he believes in Cheryl as a musician and singer as well. He's intimately involved in all the big decisions, as is Seth (his business associate), who is a behind-the-scenes guy but very well-respected"

As we mentioned earlier, Chez has got rid of her long-term manager, Hilary Shaw, whose had the pleasure of running her life since 2005. But there is no bad blood apparently, and she will continue to manage Girls Aloud, the band who haven't released a single for two years.

We fondly remember Will.i.am's own manager for taking one for the team and hitting Perez Hilton in the face, so if Will could be responsible for a video as good as this then we'll certainly consider not completely loathing him.
