Cheryl Cole is pushing ahead with her music career and after being spotted dining with Usher earlier this week, recent reports suggest the former X Factor judge has some more celebrity collaborators up her sleeve.

It is reported that Cole is working on her third solo album in LA with Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am and Perez Hilton claims that she also met with Christina Aguilera earlier this week, close to a recording studio which is often used by Madonna and Mary J. Blige.

Hilton also claims that the ‘Promise This’ hitmaker is working with producing legend RedOne for her upcoming record, which is expected to be released in late 2011.

A source told the blogger:

“Cheryl was thrilled when the opportunity to work with RedOne arose. He is the producer of the moment and she already feels that this album will be the making of her solo career.”
