Cheryl Cole: I worried people wouldn't like Girls Aloud

Singer struggled to deal with the media attention

Cheryl Cole joined Girls Aloud in 2002

Cheryl Cole admits she was insecure when she first joined Girls Aloud six years ago.

The X Factor judge rose to fame on ITV show Popstars: The Rivals when she was just 19.

‘To be honest, I didn’t eat or sleep, I barely breathed through worry of what people were thinking of us,’ she says.

‘But never once did I think, none of this is worth it.’

Cheryl, 25, has now grown used to the media frenzy surrounding her life.

‘All I can say is, we obviously make interesting news to be put on the front cover, so that’s a positive thing,’ she says. ‘We sell papers.’

Sarah Harding, 27, Nicola Roberts, 23, Kimberley Walsh, 27, and Nadine Coyle, 23, are also in Girls Aloud.
