Will.i.am certainly hasn’#t lost faith in Cheryl Cole.

The Black Eyed Pea star became the former Girls Aloud singer’s manager earlier this year, when it looked like she was going to judge on the new American X Factor series. However, when she lost that job, he didn’t abandon her but rather focused her on recording her third solo album and taking to Twitter recently, he assured fans that Chez will be back bigger than ever!

After tweeting a picture of the two of them living it up in Cannes, France, Will then told his followers:

“Cheryl will soon be back and bigger than ever.”

Speaking about what he has planned for her music career, he added:

“Over the next few months she’s potentially going to be working with Rihanna, Katy Perry, Usher and, of course, the Peas.”

It was recently reported that Cheryl was also spotted dining with The Voice judge Christina Aguilera, close to her recording studios, which prompted rumours that they may be working on a collaboration also.

Do you think Cheryl can make a comeback after her X Factor humiliation? Leave your comments below.

It wouldn’t be a decent reality TV final if you didn’t have The Black Eyed Peas on for a performance and last night the American supergroup did not diappoint.

They took to the stage during the season finale of Dancing With The Stars and rocked out with their latest single “Don’t Stop the Party”.

It was an all male group who first took to the stage, as Taboo, will.i.am and apl.de.ap kicked off the futuristic performance and we were just beginning to feel the beat when Fergie brought a more melodic quality to the track, as she appeared above the crowd on a suspended platform and was lowered to the stage.

It was a much better live performance from the group than we have heard in recent months and as we bopped along at home, all we could think about was how much we wanted to hit the dancefloor and hear the song in a club setting. That’s when The Peas’ material really comes to life!

Don’t Stop the Party” was written by all four band members, along with Joshua Alvarez, and LeRoy. It was announced on May 09, 2011 on the band official website that the song is the third single from album The Beginning and a music video for the song was released on iTunes the next day, May 10, 2011.

The Black Eyed Peas have previously performed the track live on the Paul O’Grady Show on 13 May,2011. It was part of their set at Radio 1′s Big Weekend 2011 and on 17 May the group also performed the song at the French Edition of X Factor.

If these acts don’t buck up the ratings of BBC’s So You Think You Can Dance, then we don’t know what will!

Nigel Lythgoe has great connections (given that he is currently executive producer of the hugely popular American Idol and the US version of SYTYCD) and has managed to sign up The Black Eyed Peas, The Wanted and Jessie J to perform on upcoming episodes of the UK dance competition.

The Wanted will take to the stage first, performing on this weekend’s results show, which will see another two performers being voted off the show. Jessie J and the Black Eyed Peas will perform next week, May 14.

Moving on from last week’s Royal Wedding themed show, tonight the remaining dancers will take part in a group dance inspired by Hairspray and Strictly Come Dancing’s Karen Hardy will be in the studio, after working with two of the couples on their ballroom skills this week.

Tune in to So You Think You Can Dance tonight at 7pm on BBC One.

The Black Eyed Peas made their X Factor return tonight.

The American stars showcased their newest single, “The Time (Dirty Bit)”, on the semi final results show. The song samples the Dirty Dancing track, ‘(I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life’.

The group are never at their best live but we thought that tonight is one of their better performances and the dancers with light up boxes on their head certainly beat Kylie Minogue’s pacman crew from a few weeks ago.

We hated this song when it was premièred on radio a few weeks ago, however it is definitely grower and the familiar tune certainly helps to lodge it in your head for hours after hearing it.

It would be better if Fergie didn’t feel the need to gyrate so much during every performance. We’re a little sick of seeing her crotch by this point……though thankfully at least she managed to retain some bladder control tonight.

After the performance, band member Will.i.am spoke to Dermot O’Leary about who stands out for him on the show. The star helped Cheryl Cole choose both Cher Lloyd and Rebecca Ferguson when he assisted her at judges house and on which one he is hoping will survive tonight’s elimination and hopefully win the series, he said:

It’s hard, they are two great talents that shouldn’t be competing with each other. They have totally different styles. Cher is wonderful, Rebecca – you would think she was hanging out with Marvin Gaye every day, she has so much soul. I’m torn. I would love to work with both of them.
