The Girls Aloud singer will have to take elocution lessons due to her Newcastle accent and her upcoming debut in the USA and her new employers are concerned. A source said the following about Cheryl Cole’s new challenge: “They were bowled over by Cheryl and thought she was beautiful, sassy, smart and charismatic. There was just one small problem – they couldn’t understand her accent. The Americans really seemed to struggle with her voice. Simon jokingly offered to pay for elocution lessons for her but, seriously, that may be the route she has to take if she is really considering breaking into television in the US.” Come on, how thick can Cheryl Cole’s accent be… and moreover, if it’s that difficult to understand, how come the music isn’t affected? And even more: since when does anyone take Simon Cowell seriously?
