Cheryl ColeCheryl ColeDredge your minds back, if you possible can, to 2002, when a wee Geordie lass won the opportunity to become part of a new pop band called Girls Aloud...

A few years, and number ones later, Cheryl Cole has been asked to appear as a judge on a v similar show.

Yes, Cheryl has been asked to sit as a judge on the latest TV talent comp, Britain's Got Talent.

And her glam presence will certainly be welcomed as her fellow judging buddies, Simon Cowell and Piers Morgan, are somewhat lacking in that department.

But of course she will have to first see if she can juggle this gig alongside her busy GA schedule.

Simon CowellSimon CowellChezza wouldn't be the first pop star to judge a talent show. She'd be following the likes of Geri Halliwell (Pop Idol), Lulu (Just The Two of Us) and Martine McCutcheon (Soapstar, Superstar).

A show insider told the Daily Mirror: "Cheryl ticks all the boxes for us - she's young, beautiful and highly successful, and we think she'd be perfect for the show.

"It's fitting that she herself found fame and fortune thanks to ITV's show Popstars: The Rivals."
