The Cher Lloyd Appreciation Thread

[Locke.]

T’S pretty obvious Cher Lloyd has been built as a brand with a view to launching in the States. And judging by her Sticks and Stones album out tomorrow, it’s ready for a US *release. The former X Factor wannabe tells me: “America is something I’m going to do. But I want to do well out there. I’ve got big dreams. America is such a big thing to try and do. If I did try, I don’t want to be *rejected. I want to be the one to succeed and make it work. I’ve got Busta Rhymes and Mike Posner on the record. So that’s a good start.” Indeed.

[Iceman]

1 - Professor Green - Read All About It - 1.000000
2 - Cher Lloyd - With Ur Love - 0.861807

Getting close :suspect:

She's on daybreak tomorrow morning.

debuted at number 4

[bbfan1991]

#4 Is not a bad position, at least she finished 2 places higher than what Credible Cardle (TM) acheived but Cher had a better song than his to work with;).

[Locke.]

Following the same pattern as Olly... next up is the double platinum album

[Jordan.]

Beautiful People is my fave, over the moon is friggin hilarious (but not in a good way)

Smithy can you please not when Gaga is wearing a satellite dish on her face right underneath.

[Locke.]

Read All About It continues atop the singles chart for Professor Green feat. Emeli Sande, even though its sales are off 44.20% week-on-week at 85,302. The track was lagging in second place on midweek sales flashes to Cher Lloyd’s second single, With UR Love (feat. Mike Posner).

Lloyd’s good start – facilitated by a return to her old stomping ground at The X Factor to publicise the song – faded as the week progressed, but With UR Love’s eventual debut at number four was attended by higher sales than her debut, Swagger Jagger, sold when it entered at number one 12 weeks ago – 74,030 against 66,316. Despite debuting at number one, Swagger Jagger dropped off very quickly, and is already out of the year-to-date Top 100, falling 98-104 this week, with career sales of 184,914 copies. With UR Love’s sales last week were the highest for a number four song since Rihanna’s Only Girl (In The World) sold 74,248 copies when placing fourth some 50 weeks ago.

[Jordan.]

Technically #1 then :idc:

From Blue Peter today:

L0GhMsT_2UE

[Locke.]

Sticks + Stones #3 on the iTunes chart and #2 on amazon

[Jordan.]

She's on this morning tomorrow & performing

[Locke.]

The album has overtaken The Wanted now and is less than 5k behind #1

[bbfan1991]

The Wanted have slagged Cher off again calling her dull this time:sleep:, bitter or what.

Sales wise I bet Syco are pleased with what she has acheived;).

[MeMyselfAndI]

#2 would be great, as Shes up against strong competition :D. I'm buying my copy on Saturday.

Also 70,000 sales & being number 4 is cheated, msot songs get #1 with 70,000 sales easily :shocked:

[Harry!]

I brought her CD on Tuesday and have listened to it today. I love it! <3

[MeMyselfAndI]

Good:)

She'd have beat Subo if it wasn't for Pyramid buying 50,000 copies

.PopDash: Congratulations on the success of your new single 'With Ur Love'. Did you always know it would be a big hit?

Cher Lloyd: Yeah, I think so. It feels great to have two hits now because, for me, the whole point of making music is to better what you did before so to be able to say I've got two hit singles is fantastic.

PopDash: How did you come to work with Mike Posner?

Well, you know how it works. Come on.

PopDash: Yeah, obviously, but it ties in really nicely with your story doesn't it? (Cher performed a Mike Posner song quite badly during an early X Factor audition).

Totally. We invited him into the record purely because I did balls his song up. It's a track for all the people who laughed at me for messing up when I was ill.

PopDash: There are lots of guest stars on the album, such as Busta Rhymes. How does it feel going toe to toe with an icon like him?

I didn’t actually go into the studio with him unfortunately. That’s something I learned through making the album actually. As a kid I always thought that any duets or collaborations, both people were in the room with each other but that’s not always how it works out.

PopDash: It must feel great to have such big names on your debut album though...

Absolutely! I’m so happy with everyone who is on the album. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. I didn’t actually have a list of collaborators though. I was helping co-write the songs on the album and occasionally names of people we felt would be right for the song came up.

PopDash: Did you co-write every track on the album?

I did every one except three.

PopDash: How did you find writing your own material?

I feel like they’re my songs much more than I would have done. I was worried that I’d just be given a CD and told to go and record it but it wasn’t like that at all.

PopDash: We saw a picture of you with Lil Wayne taken when you were recording your album. How was it to meet a hero like that?

Nobody told me he was coming so I didn’t have time to get nervous about it. It was a huge shock to be honest and weird to think that I’m in a situation where I’m in the same studio as Lil Wayne and we can chat to each other.

PopDash: Did he pass on any advice to you?

Not really, he did say my accent was cute.

PopDash: What about his voice? Did you understand him? He slurs his words quite a lot…

Of course! I’ve grown up listening to him so I knew everything he said.

PopDash: Do you get star struck around people?

Totally! Even coming into places like this (We’re speaking to Cher at her record label offices) I get worried I’ll see someone and make a fool of myself. I try to act like it doesn’t phase me because I don’t feel like I fit into that bracket at all yet.

PopDash: That comes with time….

I don’t think it will though, it’s just a part of me.

PopDash: Is your album, ‘Sticks and Stones’, everything you hoped it would be?

It’s more. I was worried I would be given a disc with twenty songs on it and told to go and record them. I was really lucky to have a record label that trusted me to start writing on my own songs so early in my career. Not many people get that opportunity.

PopDash: When did you start work on the album?

Basically. I didn’t know I was signed and I went into the studio with Will.I.am the day after I got voted off The X Factor last year. I was in the studio immediately and I said to someone, ‘So have I got a record deal?’ and they were like, ‘Err… yeah!’.

PopDash: Do you remember when you recorded ‘Swagger Jagger’?

I was in Miami and there was a lot of police around, I think someone got shot actually. It was crazy. For some reason one of the writers I was with was humming ‘My Darling Clementine’ and everyone was going crazy.

PopDash: Did you feel vindicated at all when the song went straight to number one?

Totally, yeah. It was peace of mind for me. People seem to focus so much on negativity these days and it’s something I don’t understand. People seem to bounce it…

PopDash: How do you mean?

Well I don’t know if it’s just a thing with this country but people seem to want to hate. We should be supporting our acts!

PopDash: It’s like a pantomime though, isn’t it? Someone we all love to hate…

Yeah but it was different for me. I don’t care though, I don’t need to rant and rave. Let them all do the talking for me.

PopDash: How does it feel to be the person that made the word ‘Swagger’ so well known? Even Louis Walsh is saying it now!

I don’t know how I did it or why I did it but it’s out there now. Lots of other artists have used it in songs before me though.

PopDash: Do you have a favourite song on ‘Sticks and Stones’ at all?

‘Over The Moon’. It’s very personal and is a song about my Uncle, who passed away. There’s lyrics on there that people will never get their heads around.

PopDash: Have your family heard that song?

It’s my Mum’s favourite song actually. It’s nice to be able to write something you can cherish like that.

PopDash: The album is a really great mix of pop and hip-hop. Would it be fair to say that hip-hop is where your heart lays?

I suppose but then before The X Factor I was a country singer. It’s a bit of a surprise but yeah, I used to sing country music songs in really rubbish clubs to a load of old people. They weren’t even listening most of the time.

PopDash: There’s a big link between Country and Hip-Hop too…

Totally! I think my voice has a lot of country influences in it actually, there’s a twang in there.

PopDash: Can you see yourself pursuing a more hip-hop direction in the future?

People should be prepared for me to get a lot harder with my music. I want to go right in at the deep end, full on stuff. I want to be a lot more edgy and I do want it to be more explicit and a bit controversial.

PopDash: Who are the artists you grew up listening to?

I was a huge fan of Sean Paul and Timbaland when I was younger. I listened to a lot of grime too, Dizzee Rascal, Dot Rotten and Ghetts too.

PopDash: Those last two feature on the album don’t they? Was it important for you to have Uk MCs on there with you?

It’s a big respect thing for me. The fact they’re on the album means more to me than having Busta Rhymes and Mike Posner.

PopDash: Do you have plans to tour next year?

Of course! I’ve got fans who want to hear me and I can’t wait to get out and perform these songs for them. If you don’t play live then you’re not a proper artist. It’s alright sitting in a studio and having some man turn a load of dials but you’ve got to get out there and play live too.

PopDash: How does playing live with your own songs compare with performing on The X Factor?

It’s massive, you can’t compare. I finish a show and I look on Twitter and there’s people writing my lyrics. You don’t get that on The X Factor and as much as I put my heart and soul into that competition it’s just singing.

PopDash: You have a lot of tattoos, including song lyrics on your arm, have you noticed fans getting Cher Lloyd tattoos?

I’ve met a lot of people actually. I met a guy the other day who had the word ‘Brrap’ tattooed down his arm. It was massive. I was like, ‘You’re crazy!’.

Wedding bells may be ringing for singer, Cher Lloyd as the star was snapped with a ring on her third finger, left hand.

The ‘Swagger Jagger’ singer wore the band for her trip to LA with beau, Craig Monk - and rumours have surfaced that their relationship has elevated to the next level.

Awful news

[bbfan1991]

Ooh I will have to catch her performance on YouTube then:).

[Jordan.]

Not confirmed she is performing yet, just rumoured. It says on wikipedia it's Tinie Tempah.

Cher at BRMB Live:).

[Jordan.]

Cher Lloyd's reps have denied reports claiming that she's engaged to boyfriend, Craig Monk.

Speculation over whether the 18-year old's beau had popped the question spread like wild fire earlier this week, after Cher was spotted wearing a sparkler on her engagement ring finger while making her way to Los Angeles.

However, a spokesperson for the With Ur Love singer has rubbished the rumours, confirming that Lloyd is not engaged.

Meanwhile, Cher seems to be having a whale of a time in LA - telling her followers on Twitter about her visit to The X Factor USA studios, stating it was "great to see" boss Simon Cowell.

Brilliant stuff

[Jordan.]

I have decided dub on the track must be the next single.

[Doogle]

Basically everyone I know is seeing her on the 29th March now :( I wanna go so bad but I can't get tickets. Well, I've seen her once but that was part of something, not just her.

[MeMyselfAndI]

I've seen her on The X-Factor tour & basically touched her, as she walked past, as she was so close :D. I dont think I'm gunna go, as Leona will have a tour in 2012 hopefully.

[Doogle]

:shocked: Awesome, I was quite far away at the teen awards but could see her very clearly :amazed:

I might go to this but GaGa's BTW ball is obviously my main priority.

[Harry!]

I would go but I want to see Madonna next year more (and dare I say it Gaga :shocked:).

[Locke.]

She will probably do the same as Olly and release a ballad as the next single.. Beautiful People is by far the best song on the album but I dunno if it would do well in the charts

[MeMyselfAndI]

My favourite Olly songs don't do well. I loved Busy the most on the album and it did Terrible.

[Jordan.]

Apparantely there was a vote on fb and Want U Back won :bored: It's too much like WUL to be the next single.

[Doogle]

I love Want U Back but I don't want it as a single really.

[Callum]

I only really like Beautiful People on the album, would love to see it become a single.

Cher Lloyd: 'Not winning X Factor was a blessing'
Published Monday, Feb 13 2012, 18:42 GMT | By Paul Millar | Add comment

Cher Lloyd has said that she is glad about not winning The X Factor.

The 'Want U Back' singer, who finished fourth in the 2010 series of the ITV talent show, believes that her work would have lacked creativity if she had the pressure of a Winners' Song.

She told Fabulous magazine: "It's a blessing that I didn't win. I mean, a girl like me was never going to win anyway, but I'm glad I came fourth because otherwise I wouldn't be doing all this now.

http://i1.cdnds.net/12/06/618x752/cher_lloyd_4_wenn3717146.jpg

"I don't have no-one holding me back. No-one ever will. I'm allowed to do whatever I want creatively. I might have come from a reality TV show, but I'm not a puppet and I won't be treated like one. You can't put me in a box. If you're going to be somebody, do it your way."

Meanwhile, admitting to rumours that she behaved badly during her time as an X Factor contestant, she said: "Everyone hated me. I was young and foolish. Part of me was trying to show I was strong enough to do it, and then I think it all got too much for me.

"But I was angry at the way I was being edited. And because I was getting really angry with it, I turned into someone that I don't even know. I turned into this horrible, horrible person with a terrible attitude. Part of me thought, 'Maybe that's how I have to behave to make it."

However, she added: "I've definitely changed a lot. I know how to deal with certain situations now, and I've learned to compromise. If there's something I'm not happy with, I say so, but in the right way. Nothing's so bad that it's the end of the world.

"I've also learned now that people aren't always going to like you. That's just everyday life. I wish I'd known then what I do now and been more carefree. I could have had a good time and not let everything get to me.

"But anyway, once I was out of the competition, I was free. I had nobody to hold me back, nobody to ask questions, no cameras in my face.".

[Jordan.]

She's started recording her second album :amazed:

Cher Lloyd has revealed that she will swear more on her next album.

The singer said that her second LP, which she is recording in Los Angeles, will show a more mature side to her.

Lloyd told Digital Spy: "I had a trip to LA not long ago and recorded some new songs. They're very much of the parental guidance sort, though!

"I'm not sure whether they'll be used anywhere, but I'm 18 now, so I can swear in my songs if I want to. I'm growing and I want to be that artist that I want."

She added: "I don't care about the charts, I just want to make great music that I enjoy performing on stage and I'm proud of. The next album is going to be on another level!"

Lloyd also said that she plans to take a slow approach to breaking America, adding: "It feels like there's not enough of me [in the UK] yet - I want there to be more and more and more. I want to be stuck in people's heads so they can't get rid of me."

Hopefully wont be as pop as the first.

There are some exclusive new tracks for the tour. Don't ask for the names, it's top secret!

Cher has released an acoustic mix of WUB:).

[Harry!]

Cher Lloyd was on CBBC's Friday Download throughout the show, I think she said the F word infront of some kids when performing Want U Back (around 35 mins).

Daybreak interview: http://www.itv.com/daybreak/entertainment/music/cher-lloyd-want-u-back/

[Locke.]

Want U Back is flopping badly :suspect:

Wasn't expecting it to do aswell as the first 2 singles cos 3rd singles hardly ever do, but thought it'd be able to get into the top 10 because the single version is different to the one on the album.

The one featuring Astro is only at #100 on iTunes

[Doogle]

Cos it's too samey I think.

[Jordan.]

It's building gradually over the days (probaby because of promo) she's #29 & #90 now. I think the problem is not enough radio airplay, radio 1 don't even have it playlisted at all yet they have One Direction on the A list :bored: Hopefully it'll just carry on climbing the charts rather than peaking in the first week like Swagger Jagger and WUL.

Want U Back is actually a really good song, her best single by a mile. It's sad that it seems to be flopping. I hear the single version on Capital FM quite a bit so it's surprising to me that it's doing so bad.

[Jordan.]

Well atleast she got to #6..... in New Zealand :joker:

I don't know if there will be another single now. It'd be best for her to go back to America and have L.A. Reid sort her a new album out, syco are ****.

[Samuel.]

Surprised it flopped, 11 million youtube views in 7 weeks is no joke. Not that that's a great gauge for sales, but a lot of people are liking it.

Cher tweeted:

I wonder if this is for her next single :amazed: She looks great.

[Mitchell]

I will admit, I am not a cher fan really, But Want U Back is such my guilty pleasure ATM, its a great song :)

[Jordan.]

Rumours going around that Beautiful People is the next single

[Locke.]

Probably won't chart well but it's the best song on the album

[Callum]

Beautiful People :worship: Deserves to do really well but I doubt it will because very rarely do fourth singles do well.

[Jordan.]

Good :amazed: Hopefully more hip hop and less pop on this one.

[bbfan1991]

Hope so, although I have doubts on that one because her management are aiming for the teen market and Pop Music makes lots of money these days...

[Jordan.]

She should do something similar to what Nicki Minaj has done on her new album, have half and half. Keeps everyone happy then.

[Jordan.]

She got a tweet from Jason Derulo the other day for her cover of Breathing on her tour, suprised he knew about it :laugh:

UK version actually >

[bbfan1991]

The UK version is better:).

[bbfan1991]

X Factor’s Cher Lloyd is teaming up with US star Snoop Dogg in an attempt to break the US market.

The teenager, who finished fourth on the show in 2010, will be releasing a new version of track Want U Back featuring the rapper.

The single was released here last year, and featured lyrics from X Factor USA finalist Astro.

Now her team are gearing up to take on the US charts, following the success of One Direction there.

“America is a *priority for me and it feels like it’s a fresh start. I’m taking it seriously. I’ll be out there for three weeks in May to get the ball rolling,” Cher revealed.

The singer started gigging in America last month, but had to return to the UK for her first ever tour.

Despite not being in the country, Cher is already receiving acclaim from the States.

“It’s an amazing initial reaction to Cher. She’s overwhelmed,” a source told the Sunday Mirror today. “The plan is to go out there for three or so weeks and introduce herself to America.

[Jordan.]

^ Guess that article was wrong then, no sign of Snoop on WUB :laugh:

Still she's in the us now performing at a few small gigs and promoting WUB. Apparently the radio adds for it so far have been quite good to say she's not known over there so hopefully it'll manage to chart. It's released on itunes 22nd May.

[Locke.]

Snoop Dogg won't help it chart, he jumps on any track he is offered these days

Maybe they were just jumping the gun and he might record a new song with her instead?

I hope she manages to do well in the US, although she cannot afford to forget about her UK fanbase so will need to try and keep both sets of fans happy:).

Glad that she is doing well over there and the US seem to like marmite acts anyway:):p.

[BBfanUSA]

Yeah, Whoever is promoting her they're doing it right.
Before it was released on iTunes. Her official page on Facebook were giving out free downloads.

She's signed with Epic Records (The label the USXF winner signs with if they win) btw.
She went to the famous SXSF Festival and did an interview or two. I can't remember the question but she was asked about 1D since they were on the same season

(She'll be on XFUSA probably, on a results show)

Yeah she and One Direction are still friends I think! It is weird how they both finished 3rd and 4th that year over here and are doing better than what the winner did overall!

BTW I live in America and in case you don't know. If you make it well into the Top 40 overall then you've hit it big in America

[bbfan1991]

So pleased that Cher is doing well in the USA:):D.

I think that Misha B might do well in USA too because of her rap/soul style and she has apparently met with Missy Elliot before. Sorry for going OT there.

She had a 30 mins set. First on the Sunday. At least she has got a good bunch of songs, unlike Tulisa on the Saturday!

[BBfanUSA]

I think it's September when Cher's album is released in the states

[Saph]

Im confused ..if people in America wanted her album and just ordered it online (and had it shipped over), would that count as an album brought in US or UK?

[BBfanUSA]

UK i'm guessing.

[Jordan.]

She's going back to the US this week to do more promo. Coming for #1 :worship:

Up to #7

#5 on itunes!!

She's confirmed she's performing on Americas got talent too.

It will be interesting to see what her strategy for the UK will be in terms of next single etc when she returns back here!

[Jordan.]

I hope they re-release the album here with the new songs shes recorded for the US version. Otherwise we wont be getting anything new until her 2nd album which could be atleast another year if the US success carries on going well....

[bbfan1991]

True and it might win her some fans back here. It makes me laugh how some people think that if you don't crack the UK market then you fail as if the UK is the only country successful where music is concerned!

Good old Cher getting a milkshake shop shut down by the police

Things seem to be going really well for Cher Lloyd over in the States.

She's already bagged herself a top twenty single and now it looks like she's got the manic fans usually reserved for fellow X Factor alumni One Direction.

Police had to close down an event Cher attended yesterday after too many of her 'brats' turned up to see their idol.

The Want U Back singer had been mugging for the cameras as she created her own milkshake, Brat Attack, at a Millions Of Milkshakes store in Hollywood.

After rocking up in her pink tour bus, Cher got hands on as she whipped up a storm in the store's kitchen, before the LAPD shut it down.

After the event, Cher apologised to the fans who turned up only to be disappointed.

She tweeted: "The pictures will be on the milkshake website tomorrow, sorry if you didn't get a picture the LAPD shut us down!!!xxx."

WUB will for sure be played. Don't know what else

Looking forward to it, she'll probably perform a couple of album tracks as well. Oh and speaking of the album it's been pushed to October 2nd now :idc:

Yayy, Over the moon is farr to cheesy for US

[Jordan.]

It's my favourite :hmph:

I do like the new song though after a few listens, she's adding her own verses to it so it wont just be an exact cover. Also another bonus track called RIOT.

Mike did nothing for that song, so good.

[Black Dagger]

Over The Moon. :lovedup:

I do like that track it got replaced with though, so all is well.

[Jordan.]

Mike did nothing for that song, so good.

It was her best collab because it related to XF when she messed his song up at judges houses.

Weird that they decide to get rid of that but keep a pointless Busta Rhymes feature.

[Jordan.]

They get rid of OTM as well which references XF... must be trying to act like she never came from the show :joker:
