LONDON - Singer Cheryl Cole is set to be the new face of Disney.
The “Fight for this love” singer is reportedly being courted by the studio to show off her acting skills in a TV show or movie, reports dailymirror.co.uk.
“Cheryl is the full package. She’s got it all - brains, beauty, and a hint of shyness. It’s unbelievable the amount of interest she stirred up in the Disney Studios following her recent trips to Los Angeles, where she was making a music video,” said a source.
“From her experiences with Girls Aloud she can handle the high-energy routines, so the plan is to incorporate her in a show. It’s early days but a one-off like the Jonas Brothers’ movie ‘Camp Rock’ would be the way to go,” the source added.
News of a possible Disney deal for the 26-year-old star who is already in talks to appear as a judge on Simon Cowell’s US version of “The X Factor”, alongside her stint on the British version has already excited one of the studio’s current stars, 17-year-old Selena Gomez.
“Oh my goodness, I’d love to work with Cheryl Cole on a Disney show. I’ve just seen that video ‘Parachute’. She is beautiful. I’d love to,” said Gomez.
If Cole signs a contract, she would be following in the footsteps of global sensations Miley Cyrus, and “High School Musical” stars Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens, who all got their big breaks through Disney.
