Cheryl Cole quit showbiz?


Cheryl Cole wants to take a break from the showbiz world.
The 27-year-old singer who was sensationally sacked from the US version of The X Factor after working on the show for just two weeks is now keen to take some time off as she does not intend to return to the UK version of the musical talent program.
“Cheryl has admitted she’s not thinking straight right now and everything is a blur,” a source said.
“She hasn’t stopped working for the past nine years ever since Girls Aloud started. She’s now looking at this as the perfect opportunity to just stop for a bit and take time out.
“She’s going to sit back, take stock of her career and decide what to do next.”
Cheryl — who is thought to have been replaced on the judging panel, also containingSimon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Paula Abdul, by Nicole Scherzinger reportedly did not want to return to the UK version of The X Factor because she is feeling “fragile” about the sacking.
“She just isn’t in the right state of mind at the moment to go headfirst into a new show,” said the source.
“She’s all over the place, emotionally she’s very fragile. Starting filming on Wednesday would be far too soon.”
She has also become “un-contactable” after the event, with TV executives left in the dark about whether or not she wanted a job in the UK.
“Cheryl will not be returning to the British ‘X Factor’. People have been trying to speak to her and persuade her this would be a good idea, but she’s been un-contactable,” a source said.
“She hasn’t returned phone calls. And you can’t exactly negotiate with someone who won’t even speak to you.”
