Talk:Cheryl Cole

Third album section

Just wondering if we should hold off on this section until it is released or we have more details at least. Smacks a bit of WP:CRYSTAL. Any thoughts? TheRetroGuy (talk) 13:42, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Well no because it has been confirmed that she is working on a third album. There is a lot more information now, so it can stay. --ƒɾɛɛᴅᴑᴍºᵀᴬᴸᴷ 17:44, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Personal life section - edit

Please please I beg you to remove the caribean jiganloo and black bitch in the personal life section. Its not necessary because many celebrities call other people slurs and have been in and out of court involved with past scuffles: There is no mention of robert downey junoirs cell number, or mel gibson slur words on their wiki article, Chace crawford pot incident frankie boyle and so so many others. And this is detrimental to her because anyone reading this assumes she is racist. You might as well disprove this by saying she marries a black man later on in life. But it is too much information for an incident she did when she was 19. I love chery :) and I am black but if I didnt live in the UK i would have automatically despised her for this incident. So imagine future potential employers who would read this up :-/. Just edit or summarize the details of the incident

I won't change this myself, but I'm not sure quoting the alleged words is strictly necessary. It was an aspect of her trial, but we're not redtop journalists here who need to sensationalise an event. I think the important thing is to be impartial. Having said that though the paragraph does make it clear that she was cleared of racially aggravated behaviour, so I think that in itself is all right and doesn't misrepresent her as being racist. Also we shouldn't skew this page in such a way as to please her fans. Perhaps others can add their thoughts here. Something of concern to me is naming the girl Ashley Cole slept with. Why are we doing that? She's not notable in an encyclopedic sense. Paul MacDermott (talk) 23:51, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Book:Cheryl Cole

Just compiled a Wikipedia book on Cheryl Cole. If anyone knows of a usable image for it, that would be much appreciated. Cheers Paul MacDermott (talk) 14:41, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Personal life - let's change this

Someone's removed this paragraph completely, and while I don't agree with the way it is set out at present, I do believe there should be some mention of this incident. So I'm posting it here, and when I get a chance I'll work on it to improve it. As mentioned above, I'm not convinced we need to quote the alleged words. Maybe all we need to say is something like: "In January 2003 Cole faced prosecution for assault following a fracas in a nightclub in Guildford. She was later found guilty of actual bodily harm and ordered to undertake community service and pay compensation and prosecution costs". .I'll have a think anyway, but here's the troublesome paragraph in the meantime if anyone else wants to have a go. Paul MacDermott (talk) 17:06, 13 February 2012 (UTC)

On 11 January 2003, Cole was involved in an altercation with a nightclub toilet attendant, Sophie Amogbokpa, at The Drink nightclub in Guildford, Surrey, England. Cole was subsequently charged with racially aggravated assault (she had allegedly called Amogbokpa a "Caribbean jigaboo" and a "black bitch") and assault occasioning actual bodily harm. During her trial, Cole claimed she acted in self-defence (claiming she had been punched first) and denied using racially abusive language. The jury found her guilty of assault occasioning actual bodily harm, but cleared her of racially aggravated assault. The judge sentenced her to 120 hours of community service and ordered her to pay her victim £500 in compensation, as well as £3,000 prosecution costs.

How about this?
