Cheryl Cole to Host Own Show
X Factor judge Cheryl Cole is set to star in a celebrity-packed special for ITV1 this Christmas.

Cole will also duet on the programme with Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am, who she previously worked with on her solo debut single, Heartbreaker.
The programme was ordered by controller of entertainment John Kaye Cooper and will be executive produced by Claire Horton and Michael Kelpie. Simon Marsh will produce.
Cooper said: “Cheryl started her journey on ITV1 on Popstars: The Rivals and we’re delighted that she now has her own special on the same channel. It’s just testament to her very special talent.”
Cole said: “2009 has been an incredible year for me with a number one single, a number one album and being part of The X Factor. And I couldn’t be happier that ITV have asked me to round off the year with my own show, working with some of my favourite artists.”
UK terrestrial ITV1 is lining up a one-off special focusing on pop singer and X Factor judge Cheryl Cole, to air later this year.
Cheryl Cole’s Night In is being made in-house by ITV Studios, and executive produced by Claire Horton and Michael Kelpie, with Simon Marsh producing.
The special will see Cole perform songs and will feature other artists such as Rihanna, Will Young, Alexandra Burke and Will.i.am.
