Eighties chic: Cher Lloyd rocks a cropped T-shirt and big swept hair as she stopped at a service station


She was born three years after the decade ended but appears to embracing the fashion with gusto.

Cher Lloyd looked every inch the Eighties chick as she stopped at a service station for a frozen coffee in her crop top.

Her hair was big and swept to one side as she flashed her midriff and sipped on her drink as she walked across the forecourt.


Cher, who was born in 1993, teamed the outfit with studded baseball boots and cut-off black denim shorts.

She was with some of her crew as she headed to the Leeds Party in the Park concert where she was performing.

And as her fame grows, so does her nonchalance towards the attention as she casually breezed past the cameras without a care in the world.

Caffeine fix: Cher sipped on her frozen coffee as she made her way across the forecourt


Cher, 18, releases her debut single entitled 'Swagger Jagger' today but she has been heavily promoting it at clubs and concerts across the country since its first airplay on June 20.

Today she will be at the Westfield Shopping Centre, in London's Shepherd's Bushto sign copies of the single, which will feature on her debut album due for release this winter.

From 4pm, she will be meeting and greeting fans at HMV which will dish out a limited number of wristbands to grant lucky fans access to the signing.

Excited: Cher chatted away to one of her crew as they headed to Leeds for Party in the Park


According to reports, an hour before the signing the digital screen on Eat Street leading up to the centre will be shut down for what is described on the singer's website as a '10 minute Cher Lloyd takeover'.

Cher has also recorded a duet with Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am, who has decided to withhold the record for now.

But she said she wasn't disappointed and told the Daily Star: 'I'm not going to stress about it. I don't think people should focus on that as I'm really happy with the record.'

'I'm not going to stop until I have a Bentley like Simon Cowell's!' Cher Lloyd reveals plans to become a 'big businesswoman'

By Sarah Bull


Big plans: Cher Lloyd says she wants to be as big as Simon Cowell


Cher Lloyd has revealed she isn't going to stop in the music industry until she is rich enough to buy a Bentley like the one Simon Cowell owns.

The 18-year-old singer, whose debut single Swagger Jagger is released tomorrow, said she isn't going to let any criticism hold her back in her mission to make it as the next big thing in music.

She said: 'I just ignore anyone that doesn’t like my music. I’m not stopping until I have a Bentley like Simon has got.'

Cher also revealed Simon has always encouraged her to stick to her own unique style when it comes to her attitude and her music.

She added to the Sunday Mirror: 'He told me not to change and not let people tell me what to do. He said listen to people that know best but always do what your gut says is right. He’s a good man.

‘I’d love to be like Simon. I really look up to him and everything he has achieved. I want to be a big businesswoman.

'One day I’d like my own record label to give other artists the chance to get their music out there.’

In the meantime, Cher is hoping Swagger Jagger and her debut album, out in November, prove successful.

And the former X Factor star said despite negative criticism surrounding the catchy track, she maintains it is a good song.

She said: 'Swagger Jagger stood out from the beginning as the first single. But there are other tracks on the album with different sounds. I’d love my album to do well.

'And I’d love to do a tour as well at some point so I can perform the songs live. I’m going to be doing lots of gigs this year no ­matter what.'

Since appearing on The X Factor, Cher has made a name for herself as one of the most famous former contestants, but says she doesn't think of herself as a celebrity.

She said: 'I don’t really see myself as being famous. I’m just well-known. I’m coping well with it all, I think. My whole life has changed, but I’m ­learning something new every day.

'I’m no big drama - I just get on with it and don’t care. I don’t expect too much and in return don’t expect too much from me.'

Cher class! X Factor star Ms Lloyd looks elegant all in black as she scrubs up beautifully for her 18th birthday

By Jody Thompson


She's arrived! Tiny Cher Lloyd looked elegant in a black minidress suit as she arrived at a studio in south London today on her 18th birthday


Just last week, she hit out at people who criticised her looks, and accused them of being insecure bullies - but Cher Lloyd appears to have found the best way to make her haters eat their words.

The former X Factor contestant who came fourth on last year's show looked extraordinarily elegant and chic in an all-black ensemble as she arrived at a recording studio in London today as she celebrated her 18th birthday.

The Swagger Jagger singer literally appeared to have grown up overnight, wearing eye-wateringly high Louboutin stilettos with a tailored black jacket over a black minidress and gold necklace.

Looking good: The X Factor star was wearing a tailored jacket over a black dress and gold necklace


She'd accessorised with black tights, a pale pink bag - and a massive happy big smile.

The undeniably striking brunette has still got her edgy half shaved haircut too, but the rest looked shiny and healthy, hanging in pretty curls.

She was clearly having a fabulous day of it too, writing on her official Twitter account: 'Thank you all so much for the birthday messages! Big love! Xxxxxx'

Cher had arrived at the south London studio to celebrate her milestone birthday with her fans.

Birthday suit: The star was celebrating her 18th birthday with a live webchat and streaming of excerpts of her new album for her fans


She was taking part in a live online stream of excerpts of her new album together with a live interview.

Despite dividing opinion while on - and after - the X Factor, she's got plenty of supporters two, with nearly half a million Twitter followers.

And even though the name-calling towards her has been harsh for someone who was until today only a child, she fiercely addressed them in her debut single Swagger Jagger, singing: 'Hi hater/ Kiss kiss/ See you later.'

Talking in last week' issue of Bliss magazine, the star seemed philosophical about the brickbats she got.

She mused: 'Some people find it hard to come to terms with the fact that everyone is different.

'I think it all boils down to their own insecurities - if you’re unhappy with yourself, you’re going to pick on someone else, and that’s what they’re doing. I feel sorry for them.'

Speaking of her upcoming track, she said: 'There are certain lines in the song that basically explain that, no matter what I do, people won’t stop writing about me and talking about me all the time.

'I’m still in people’s minds, whether they like me or they hate me.'

She also credited her fans with giving her strength, adding: 'It’s really good. I call them my brats because they’re feisty.

'I don’t even have to open my mouth - they do it for me. I couldn’t do it without them.'

Cher's debut single Swagger Jagger is out on 31 July, with her debut album following in November.

Too cool for school: Cher Lloyd says her 'unhappy' critics just have 'insecurities' - and reveals her bizarre crush on Mr Bean

By Nadia Mendoza


Tattooed tearaway: She's not even 18, but feisty Cher Lloyd has a mature attitude


Most teenagers would crumble at the barrage of backlash Cher Lloyd has received.

But the little fighter has hushed her critics by saying they're just 'insecure'.

The Malvern pop princess says the only reason people are so quick to bully her is because they're 'unhappy' themselves.


But with Simon Cowell's support, nearly half a million Twitter supporters and a debut album on the way, she is the one having the last laugh.

Cher, soon to be 18, even addressed the issues in her first single Swagger Jagger, singing: 'Hi hater/ Kiss kiss/ See you later.'

Having catapulted into the spotlight by coming fourth on last year's X Factor, the petite star has matured beyond her years.

She said: 'Some people find it hard to come to terms with the fact that everyone is different.

'I think it all boils down to their own insecurities - if you’re unhappy with yourself, you’re going to pick on someone else, and that’s what they’re doing. I feel sorry for them.'

Speaking of her upcoming track, she said: 'There are certain lines in the song that basically explain that, no matter what I do, people won’t stop writing about me and talking about me all the time.

'I’m still in people’s minds, whether they like me or they hate me.'

Cher said she still speaks to Syco boss Cowell, saying: 'We have a really good relationship - it’s a truthful one.

'If there’s anything that he doesn’t feel will benefit me or lead me in the right direction, he’ll give me advice, which is the whole reason I went to the show - for his advice.

'To see whether I was good enough. He’s like an uncle. Uncle Si!

'Yeah, I do text him. I never put kisses though! Always a smiley face.'

Cheeky: Singer has a lot of attitude and has learned to ignore her 'haters'

She also credited her fans with giving her strength, adding: 'It’s really good. I call them my brats because they’re feisty.

'I don’t even have to open my mouth - they do it for me. I couldn’t do it without them.'

Cher also revealed her latest bizarre crush, telling Bliss: 'I’ve got a crush on Mr Bean.

'But not the actual actor (Rowan Atkinson) - the character. If I could have a boyfriend like that for a day, I think I’d be very, very happy, because he doesn’t speak does he?

'He’s just like "Teddy, teddy". I’ve got his name in one of my songs - it goes, "Please don’t say a thing, Mr Bean." Its great isn’t it?'

After triumphant Swagger Jagger performance at T4 On The Beach, Cher Lloyd goes back to basics with new track Superhero

By SARAH BULL


Triumphant: Cher Lloyd wowed with her performance of new single Swagger Jagger at T4 On The Beach today


Her debut single may have been slated before it has even been released but Cher Lloyd didn't let that stop her performing to the very best of her ability at T4 On The Beach today.

The 17-year-old singer bounded on to the stage in Weston-Super-Mare wearing a tiny pair of black shorts and a skeleton printed T-shirt as she performed Swagger Jagger to the cheering crowd.

Cher's triumphant performance came just hours after she released a video clip of a track called Superhero, believed to be the teenager's next release from her upcoming album.


Excited: Cher looked delighted as she took to the stage


The former X Factor star goes back to basics with the acoustic song, showcasing her talent perfectly as she performs the track while sitting on a bed, with only a guitarist as her musical accompaniment.

The new song could have been prompted by the fact that Cher won huge praise when she belted out Shakespear's Sister hit Stay on The X Factor, with the judges telling her it suited her when she stripped things back and showed off her vulnerability in her music.

Today Cher wowed the crowds at T4 On The Beach with her energetic performance of Swagger Jagger.


She's got some swagger: Cher sang into a fluorescent pink microphone


Showered: Cher was showered with yellow confetti as she performed


Unique: Cher wore a pair of black shorts and a skeleton-print T-shirt for the event


Quirky: Cher teamed her outfit with a pair of bright pink boots

A close shave: Cher Lloyd shows off her new shaved hairstyle as she launches her pop career

New look: Cher Lloyd shows off her new partially-shaved hairstyle as she arrives at the Channel 4 studios in London today


With her new debut solo single coming out, Cher Lloyd is hoping to make an impact on the charts.

So what better way to get maximum publicity by changing hew look to coincide with the release of her single.

Heading to the Channel 4 studios today, the 17-year-old showed off her new partially-shaven hairstyle.

Looking like a pop star? Lloyd teamed her new hairstyle with a preppy ensemble and Doc Martin boots


Perhaps in a bid to be taken more seriously as an urban artist, the Malvern-raised singer has taken a razor to the right side of her head.

But fashionistas may think Lloyd is a tad behind the times with this style, which came to prominence among urban singers two years ago.

American R&B singer Cassie shaved her part of her long locks off in April 2009, followed by Rihanna a few months later.

In January 2010, Will Smith's daughter Willow also shaved her hair, with ex-Spice Girl Mel B and her daughter Phoenix following suit a few weeks later.

Since leaping to fame as a contestant on last year's X Factor, Lloyd has loved to experiment with her fame.

While on the show, she wore long brunette hair extensions, with a briefly flirtation with red hair dye for a few weeks.

During the X Factor Live tour earlier this year, she returned to a red - but more of a Ronald McDonald hue.

Lloyd is currently promoting her debut single Swagger Jagger, with the video premiering online last week and has already received over 2million hits.
