It seems everybody wants a piece of Cheryl Cole these days.
Not only has the babe topped the charts with her new single and landed a lucrative £500,000 deal with L’Oreal but she’s now being pursued by Doctor Who chiefs to star in the hit sci-fi show.
Bookies Paddy Power however are betting the Geordie stunner is destined for much bigger things and has already witnessed a gamble on her landing a 007 role as the new Bond girl.
Cheryl has now surged ahead of other potential Bond girls on the bookies list and is just 8/1 to follow in the footsteps of all-time greats Ursula Andress, Honor Blackman and Halle Berry and become Daniel Craig’s love interest in Bond 23.
Cheryl will need to hone her acting skills though to pip other hotly tipped ladies to the Bond role, namely Slumdog Millionaire star Freida Pinto at 3/1 and Transformers hottie Megan Fox at 6/1.
Sharon McHugh, spokesperson for Paddy Power told Bettingpro “Cheryl doesn’t have acting experience but let’s face it with looks like hers she doesn’t really need it. She’s hot property right now thanks to the X Factor and her profile just keeps getting bigger. Also, with filming not expected to start until late 2010, she has plenty of time to take a few acting lessons!”
Meanwhile Paddy Power are also offering odds on Cheryl jumping on board theTardis. It’s 6/1 that Cheryl guest appears in the Christmas addition of Doctor Who and 12/1 she becomes the Doctor’s assistant by the end of next year.
