Guess who thinks Cheryl’s too thin to be an icon…

Most of the population are obsessed with Cheryl Cole at the moment, but we’ve found one woman who isn’t a fan – feminist academic Germaine Greer. During an appearance on tonight’s Gordon Ramsay’s Cook-Along Live (cooking? Er, how feminist!), Germaine says Cheryl’s too skinny to be a feminist icon. “There’s not enough of her,” she says. “She’s too thin. A healthy girl is a fat-bottomed creature.” Germaine had a similar pop at Jordan on the show. “I think the girl's a genius, except that I also think she's destroying herself,” she says. “And that's not a pretty picture.” Do you agree with Germaine or do you think Cheryl and Jordan are doing their bit for girl power, regardless of their minuscule bums?

Why Cheryl's not a feminist!
