She may not be a household name here in the US yet, but over in the UK one vocalist dominates the headlines. Whether it's for her work with pop-quintet Girls Aloud (who, incidentally, hold the Guinness World Record for "Most Consecutive Top Ten Chart Entries in the UK by a Female Group"), her impeccable style, her hugely successful soccer-playing husband Ashley Cole, or for her position as a judge on the UK's equivalent of American Idol, X Factor, Cheryl Cole is a ubiquitous figure in the world of British entertainment.
Will.i.am... Well, y'all know about him already. Black Eyed Peas, anyone?
Well, recently the two of them came together for what has already been a massive hit in Europe - the dazzlingly sultry "3 Words":
The single is available as a download in the US, while Ms Cole's solo debut, also titled 3 Words (and featuring an additional three collaborative tracks with Will.i.am), is out now through Polydor UK, or here on import.
Will.i.am is reportedly now working with rock legend Slash on a version of The Who's classic single, "My Generation". The song will debut during halftime of this year's Super Bowl on February 7, and become available on iTunes after the performance, with proceeds going towards recovery efforts in Haiti.
Three words: We. Like. That.
