The 9 0'Clock News – Wed 17  Feb

Cheryl removes her wedding ring to perform at The Brits
Cheryl Cole took to the stage at The Brit Awards last night without her wedding ring, sending a clear message out to both husband Ashley and her fans. It's the first time Cheryl has been pictured without her ring since the whole Ashley sex texts scandal broke on Friday and insiders are claiming that the footie star has pretty much accepted that his marriage may be over. Cheryl received a standing ovation for her performance and thanked the crowd afterwards. Host Peter Kay was quick to quip, "You've got to fight for this love - never a truer word spoken." Other highlights of the night included Liam Gallagher throwing his Brit Award to the crowd and Lady GaGa. Just everything about her. For a full list of winners, see below. Did YOU watch the show last night? What did you think of Cheryl's performance?

Simon Cowell admits his girlfriend is "the one"
Simon Cowell admitted during an interview with Piers Morgan that his new girlfriend Mezhgan Hussainy could be "the one". The X Factor judge admitted how smitten he was during a three-hour chat with Piers for his LIfe Stories show - and even said he's coming around to the idea of having children. "I'm smitten with Mezghan," he told Piers. "I think she's the one - she's very special. I think I need to have some little Simons around." Girlfriend Mezghan was in the audience throughout the chat and onlookers say the pair spent a lot of the time pulling silly faces at each other. Who would ever have guessed Simon could be so soppy? We're very happy for him.

Peter Andre to take the lead in Grease?
Peter Andre has been approached to play the lead part in the West End production of Grease, it has been reported today. The singer met with the cast during a recent visit and told them he'd love to take part and now pals say it could well happen. "Pete has had lots of offers from musicals. He loves the character of Danny Zuko and he's confident that he will be able to play him," said a friend. Due to his busy schedule and upcoming tour, Pete wouldn't be able to accept the offer until next year at the earliest, but he's definitely said to be keen on the idea.

    Robin S is amazo, poor Chezza, I cant believe she got up and "sang" that song, glad the other girls were there to back her up in their own way

    Chezza lipsynching was dreadful - my husband thought the cameramen had been told to keep the cameras off her face to avoid showing how bad it was. Big mistake to have the other singer come in while she changed her clothes, it really showed up how poor Cheryl's voice truely is.

    milliejo, take that didnt sing live because the acoustics and sound settings would be all off, we all know take that can sing live and put on a good show, cheryl sounds like shes trying to get through to animals when she sings, i dont think take that and girls aloud can be compared really, plus, take that mimed in time, it doesnt take that much effort really does it, her performance was beyond shocking.

    It would be sweet if Simon had kids. Anyway, on a completely unrelated topic, I'm hungry so I'm gonna have a cheesestring.

    I think the standing ovation was more of sympathy message from the public, but who knows????

    Cheryl Cole did NOT deserve that standing ovation.She didn't sing and she lipsynced out of tune. So what if her husband could have cheated that has nothing to do with her being an overall SHIT performer. Get over the 'Everyone loves Chezza' stuff heatworld. She is not that great.
