Girls Aloud singing lass and X Factor judge Cheryl Cole is to attempt a solo career as her day job group take a break.
A spokesman told the BBC that the group were to "take time out" to work on projects that range from "music to acting to beauty to fashion".
"Cheryl is going to work on some solo music – there is no release date set for this yet as she has not recorded any music," the spokesman added. "Her A&R people have approached various producers with the view to working with her.
"Until she has recorded music, we can’t say who will be working on the record as we can’t say at this stage what will make it past the idea stage,"
Meanwhile, new electronic chappy Frankmusik claimed on Twatter that "I am producing Cheryl Cole’s solo album."
