'She's a singer right?' Cheryl Cole's US hopes dealt a new blow as Jennifer Lopez admits she 'doesn't know much about her'

By SARA NATHAN and LIZ THOMAS

Snub: Jennifer Lopez has admitted she'd never heard of Cheryl Cole in a new interview


Jennifer Lopez has dealt Cheryl Cole’s hopes of hitting the big time in the U.S. a blow after admitting she doesn’t know much about the British singer.

Miss Cole is poised to take a role on the American version of The X Factor which Simon Cowell is launching later this year, but executives are worried the star simply does not have a high enough profile.

Show insiders said that the 27-year-old Girls Aloud singer is set to take a role on the new programme in a multi-million pound deal but there has been some anguish about whether viewers will know who she is or be able to understand the Geordie star’s accent.

Miss Lopez, 41, who is a judge on rival show American Idol, has now twisted the knife by admitting she knows very little about Miss Cole and was not even sure what she did for a living.

‘Someone mentioned [Cheryl] to me yesterday,’ Miss Lopez told Fabulous magazine.
‘She is a singer, right?


Hopeful: Cheryl, pictured at the Prince's Trust awards in London last week, is set to appear on the U.S. X Factor


Giving her a role on his new American version of The X Factor is a gamble for Cowell – who is determined that the show will be a hit.

He so far only formally named one judge to appear on the panel - record executive and music producer Antonio ‘L.A.’ Reid.

He has helped launch the careers of stars including Mariah Carey, Pink, Rihanna, Kanye West and Justin Bieber.

Singers Nicole Scherzinger, Katy Perry, Mariah Carey, rapper Nicki Minaj and George Michael have been among the names also touted to join.


Rival: Lopez is a judge on rival programme American Idol


Auditions for the series began today with around 18,000 hopefuls descending on Los Angeles in a bid to become a star.

Cowell has a difficult task ahead of him as rival show American Idol which has big name stars Miss Lopez, Randy Jackson and Aerosmith’s Steve Tyler on the panel, remains the most watched programme in the U.S. pulling in as much as 30 million viewers an episode.

Cowell, 51, used to be a judge but quit to launch The X Factor there.

The winner of the show will receive a Sony Music recording contract worth $5million - which is far higher than the £1million deal offered on the British show.


Not famous enough for U.S. TV? Jennifer admitted she didn't know Cheryl's music but 'would be happy to learn about it,' but her ignorance underlines X Factor producers' concerns


Miss Lopez , who has a music and merchandise empire worth £150million, said joining the judging panel on American Idol had boosted her popularity.

She said: ‘I think it is helping to show people the real me for the first time. It’s funny because I always knew that person was there - it’s just that no one else did!
‘I guess I was always a character, either with a script in a movie or performing a song on the stage, and people never saw the human side of me. Now viewers can see that I’m emotional and passionate and human.’

Hair raising! Jason Gardiner reveals new £12,000 hair transplant as Laura Hamilton scores perfect 10s on Dancing On Ice final

By JODY THOMPSON

Hair today: The previously bald Dancing On Ice judge Jason Gardiner revealed the results of his £12,000 hair transplant live on the show's grand final tonight


It's a secret he'd literally been keeping under his hat - but tonight Dancing On Ice's acid-tongued judge Jason Gardiner unveiled his new hair transplant live during the grand final.

The 39-year-old Australian was so bowled over by children's TV presenter Laura Hamilton's performance on the rink that he doffed his trilby to her - and revealed the layer of dark brown growth on his previously shiny pate.

Jason flashed the fuzz after Laura and partner Colin Ratushniak landed straight 10s from all three judges for their routine to the Pointer Sisters' I'm So Excited.


Hats off: The judge decided to literally take his hat off in salute to Laura Hamilton's perfect 10s after her routine in the grand final to The Pointer Sisters I'm So Excited

As he shocked the crowd with his unveiling, he said: 'Laura I have to say I take my hat off to you - incredible! You have just proven why you are in this competition. You just took it to another level.'


Before: Jason, pictured here in January, had an almost entirely bald head before undergoing his hair transplant


Surprised co-host Holly Willoughby gasped afterwards: 'I'm almost sepeechless about what was under the hat!'

It's understood Jason spent £12,000 on the procedure where follicles are taken from the back of the head on embedded into the crown.

It had been rumoured before the final that the judge would be unveiling his thatch on the show, but that was denied by host Phillip Schofield at the start.


Hair we go: Jason Gardiner was so impressed with Laura that he revealed his new hair transplant in her honour - but the public voted for Sam


The remaining two couples, Sam Attwater and Brianne Delcourt and Laura and Colin were then left to battle it out and skate the routine made famous by the show's chief coaches, Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean - the legendary Bolero.

Judges votes no longer counted - and it was solely down to the public to decided who would be the Dancing On Ice 2011 champion - and they decided on Sam, despite Laura's perfect 10s.

Sam Attwater wins Dancing On Ice 2011

By JODY THOMPSON

Winner: Former EastEnders star Sam Attwater lifted the Dancing On Ice 2011 trophy after skating a 'passionate' Bolero with partner Brianne Delcourt


Former EastEnders star Sam Attwater was crowned the Dancing On Ice 2011 champion after one of the tightest grand finals the show has ever seen

The 24-year-actor won the public's hearts with his 'passionate' version of show star's Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean's Bolero - despite accidentally leaving his hand on her breast at the end as they sprawled on the ice.

Sam gushed about Brianne, 29, too as he lifted the winner's trophy, saying: 'I've had the time of my life. I've made a friend for life and I wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for Brianne.'


High five: The pair were thrilled to be crowned champions - and Sam dedicated his win to Brianne, who he said would be a 'friend for life'


The pair won through with their consistently good skating since the show started in January and Sam had been the bookies' favourite since day one.

However, they had caused controversy earlier in the show's run over accusations they had tried to manipulate viewers with a 'faux-mance' between themselves.

In February, they had told show host Phillip Schofield they were 'an item' as they conducted a series of photoshoots in glossy magazines, even posing in bed with just their ice skates and giving quotes saying they ‘loved each other to bits’ and had met each other’s parents.

Preview: 'Fringe' Goes Inside Olivia's Mind

In 'Lysergic Acid Diethylamide', Olivia is gone for good but the team makes a final attempt to get her back by entering her mind.


The desperate attempt to save Olivia from the death leads to the decision to enter her mind ala "Inception". In three weeks, "Fringe" will begin the story arc that builds the third season finale with "Lysergic Acid Diethylamide". The new episode airs April 15 on FOX.

Speaking of what will lead up to the finale, showrunner Joel Wyman told THR, "Consistently, we've tried to have a new chapter begin at the end of the seasons. The first season was the Twin Towers and the second season was Olivia over there. This one will have the same effect that, sort of the beginning of a new understanding of the program."


The sci-fi series has just been given a full season 4 order by the network. "FOX has been supportive throughout this process, from the beginning and certainly this season, wall-to-wall. They told us they were thrilled with the show creatively, the number wasn't exactly what they would"ve hoped for but they know the audience is deep and loyal and returns, and that's valuable to them," fellow exec producer Jeff Pinkner said.

He admitted that they have had a general idea of what season 4 will bring but said, "We don't have all the episodes written but we have the framework of a plan for the next series."

'Nervous wreck' Chloe Madeley fears she'll crack under pressure in Dancing On Ice final

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Finalists: Laura Hamilton, Sam Attwater and Cloe Madeley will battle it out in the Dancing On Ice final tomorrow night


Chloe Madeley might have made it to the grand finals but the Dancing On Ice star is worried she’ll crack under pressure.

The daughter of TV’s Richard and Judy is said to be a ‘nervous wreck’ over tomorrow’s final and fears she’ll mess up the lift which she hopes to bring her victory.

The 24-year-old is hoping to dazzle judges on the ITV1 show with a sexy Dirty Dancing routine.


Impressive moves: Chloe impressed earlier in the series with dance moves like these ones


Chloe and her dance partner Michael Zenezini will try to recreate the lift that Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey made famous in the 1987 hit film.

But if it goes wrong, her dream of winning the competition will be shattered and a show source says she’s ‘really scared’.


Injuries: Sam Attwater crashed into the ice during rehearsals earlier in the week, leaving his with sprained ribs and slashed knuckle


The former EastEnders star crashed into the ice during rehearsals earlier in the week, leaving his with sprained ribs and slashed knuckles.

‘I was doing a lift where I’m lifting two girls and then I just went and the way I landed I tried to save both the girls and went down and sprained my ribs and got a blade across my knuckles,’ he said.

But despite his fall, Sam is still the bookies’ favourite to win the dance-off against Chloe and Laura Hamilton.

Sam, 24, is set to dance to Footloose, while 28-year-old Laura is planning to shine while dancing to Madonna’s Express Yourself.

But children’s TV presenter Laura is also said to be scared that her fan base isn’t strong enough

She said: ‘Of course I was worried the fact not many people knew me could go against me.

‘I always knew from week one when it was completely down to the public vote that we’d struggle to make it through.



Worried: TV presenter Laura is also said to be scared that her fan base isn't strong enough to win


‘You don’t know how the public have taken to you – that’s why we didn’t expect to get this far.’

Meanwhile, Chloe said of her routine: ‘I have lots of boys in my showcase and lots of lifts.

‘There’s pressure from all these men telling me to get it right. I don’t want to injure anyone and I find it quite overwhelming.’

The Dancing On Ice final kicks off tomorrow at 7:40pm on ITV1

Jennifer Lopez masks her natural beauty with too much blush and green eyeshadow on American Idol

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Clown show: J.Lo looked as though she had raided the make-up box of Steve Tyler with her over-the-top green eye-shadow and full on rosy cheeks


Jacob Lusk raised the roof with Marvin Gaye's All I Need to Get By

Favourite Pia Toscano looked stunning in a long black fitted gown


She's a natural beauty, one of the most gorgeous woman in the world.

But Jennifer Lopez managed to hide her good looks under a cake of make-up on last night's American Idol.

She looked like she had raided the make-up box of fellow judge Steve Tyler with her over-the-top green eye-shadow and full blown rosy cheeks.


Pretty in pink: The singer's sparkly top was however pretty and a more softer choice for the 41-year-old who normally goes for bolder choices, such as the leopard print dress she wore last week


Luckily she salvaged her look with a pretty sparkly top, a softer choice for the 41-year-old, who normally goes for bolder attire, such as the loud leopard print dress she wore on last week's show.

Her outfit, which she paired with pleated pink skirt, complemented the theme of the night - Motown - a music movement that originated in the 50s.


Jennifer's poor make-up choice came as the remaining 11 contestants tried to impress her and fellow judges Randy Jackson and Tyler with their soulful sounds.

And it was Jacob Lusk that stole the show with his 'flawless' rendition of All I Need To Get By by Marvin Gaye.

His roof-raising performance prompted Tyler to get up from the panel and embrace Lusk on-stage.

Randy Jackson was equally impressed telling the audience: ' Do you know what was wrong with that performance? Absolutely nothing!'

And Jennifer was simply left quivering in her Christian Louboutins.

'You made us beg!' she cried. 'You made us beg for those notes! We were like, 'Give it to us, Jacob! Give it to us, Jacob!' You know what it is? You move me. You move us...You just took your time with it and you made us beg! Crazy!'

But close on Husk's tail was favourite Pia Toscano, who has so far outshone her fellow contestants.

Yet again it was a confident and polished performance from the singer, who performed All In Love Is Fair by Stevie Wonder.

Blown away: His roof raising performance impressed all three of the judges


'So again you kill us with one of your killer ballads,' Lopez said. 'But I need you to start to incorporate more that other part into your performance.'

Randy also loved the song but told her that next time he wanted something different: 'The only thing for me... bring me something different. You can't live on ballads alone.'

But Tyler was simply blown away.


Perfect: Yet again it was a confident and polished performance from the Pia Toscano, who performed All In Love Is Fair by Stevie Wonder


'Right now you are the closest star in the American Idol universe,' he said.

Recovering from his failed Nirvana performance last week, Casey Abrams gave a growling rendition of another Marvin Gaye classic, I Heard It Through The Grapevine.

Fellow rocker Tyler was clearly impressed. 'I think you are the perfect entertainer. You're beautiful and I love it.'

James Durbin also had the crowd at their knees with Living In The City by Stevie Wonder.

'Omg, omg, omg, you are serious business up there,' exclaimed Jennifer. 'I mean it's just an incredible thing to watch... You leave me speechless and that is not easy to do.'

Randy added:'To be honest when you started, it was a little bit rough for me,.. When you finally hit your pocket, your stride, you were unbelievable.


Animated: James Durbin also had the crowd at their knees with Living In The City by Stevie Wonder


And Tyler agreed: 'I think sometimes it takes being a little bit of crazy to make it in this world... You nailed it.'

Brunette stunner Thia Megia appeared to have overcome some her stage freeze as she performed Heat Wave by Martha and The Vandellas .

'It was great to see you let loose like that,' smiled J. Lo.

And after being in the bottom three last week, Haley Reinhart got back in the game with You Really Got A Hold On Me by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles.

Her perfect pitching and persistent purring impressed all three of the judges.

'It started a little bit rough but I tell you what by the middle of the song, the Haley that we love... came roaring back. I am happy to see you return,' said Randy.

Steven chimed in: 'I feel you and I felt her... You don;t look a day over fabulous. That is the Haley I have been looking for the first time I saw you.'


Back on top: Haley Reinhart got back in the game with You Really Got A Hold On Me by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles


Jennifer also agreed: 'You can do anything with your voice probably more than anyone in the competition.'

Paul McDonald brought the raspy tones of Rod Steward to the table as he belted out another Smokey Robinson track, The Tracks of My Tears.

Tyler compared the voice to two other very famous singers.

'Like Dylan, like Willie Nelson, your voice is that different,' he said.

Lauren Alaina serenaded judges by getting off the stage and strolling over to the panel to sing The Supremes classic, You Keep Me Hangin' On.

Quick witted Tyler came up with the perfect comment to round out the impressive recital.

'You ripped that song another beauty spot, didn't you?' he exclaimed.
J.Lo was more impressed with the teenagers appearance.

'This is the most beautiful I have seen you on the show,' she remarked.

Country crooner Scotty McCreery pulled off the impossible by singing a perfect rendition For Once in My Life by Stevie Wonder.

Many thought that the 17-year-old would bomb in this week's theme.

But the judges were blown away.

'Scotty that was beautiful... So you took a bit chance in doing that and I love that you really ripped it,' said Tyler.

Jennifer was impressed with his rendition: 'This was a great version of this song... you really made it your most. I don't know if it was your best performance vocally Every time you hit that low note at the end, you got me all over again.

And Randy agreed: 'That is a young lady killer note!'

For her performance of Martha And The Vandellas' Dancing In The Street, Naima Adedapo slipped into some bell bottoms and busted out some tribal moves to the beat of the drum.

The judges were impressed with all of her theatrics, especially Jennifer who told the 26-year-old that she gave her 'gooseys'.

'I am going to be totally honest, it was my first goosebumps of the night... You are my mover and my shaker up there... you have that litttle extra something on the stage.

'I heard you came up with drum and the whole thing... Once again we see the whole package,' mused Steve.

Randy admitted that he had been harsh in the past but that he had changed his tune: 'I have been a little rough on you in the past shows... but tonight the whole of Naima turned up. Everything was very smart that you did tonight.'

Surprisingly the most criticised performance came from judge favourite Stefano Langone.

For his rendition of Lionel Richie's Hello, both Jennifer and Randy agreed that he failed to connect with the audience.

'You sounded good, but there was no real connection,' Randy concurred.

J.Lo said 'I want you to connect. I want the intensity to come from like my heart is breaking.'

'I want you to connect... I still love you anyway.'


No connection: For his rendition of Lionel Richie's Hello, both J.Lo and Randy agreed that Stefano Langone did not connect with the audience enough


Meanwhile the audience once again had some famous faces.

Actress Liv Tyler came along in support of her Aerosmith rocker father.

Host Ryan Secreast teased the 33-year-old saying: 'You'll will need earmuffs for part of the show.'

British celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey was also spotted in the crowd.
