GIRLS ALOUD star NADINE COYLE will square up to bandmate CHERYL COLE in what is set to be one of 2010′s most fierce chart battles.
Nadine is preparing for war by hiring a crack team of music industry heavyweights to guide her to solo greatness.
GUY CHAMBERS, the man who co-wrote most of ROBBIE WILLIAMS’ huge hits, has joined forces to pen her new album. It will be moving pop ballads all the way, stirring up competition not only with Cheryl but LEONA LEWIS and ALEXANDRA BURKE too.
A source said: “Guy Chambers doesn’t just work with anyone.
“He’s incredibly selective about who he agrees to collaborate with and, to be frank, he’s the most expensive in the business to hire. “He has seen something in Nadine he really admires.”
No-nonsense publicist BARBARA CHARONE – the woman behind MADONNA, CHRISTINA AGUILERA and KASABIAN’s press campaigns – is also on board in the battle to make Nadine, the UK’s new Queen Of Pop.
It is a powerful team with a great chance of guiding the Irish star to greatness. The big-money signings are an indication of how much faith record bosses at Polydor are putting into Nadine.
Cheryl opted for a glossy pop/dance direction when she went out on her own in October.
Nadine is determined to be noticed on the power of her voice, proving she was always the best singer in Girls Aloud.
Cheryl has got off to a stunning start with a chart-topping double – debut single Fight For This Love and album 3 Words both hit the top spot.
Unlike Cheryl, Nadine hasn’t got The X Factor to back her up, and she has never had the same popularity as the Geordie stunner.
She’ll have to flash her incredible legs a lot more and use her Irish charm if she’s going to be serious competition.
