Cheryl Tweedy has launched an attack on footballers' wives, claiming that, apart from Victoria Beckham, they all lack ambition.

The Girls Aloud star, who is engaged to England player Ashley Cole, hates the press attention the England team's 'WAGs' (wives and girlfriends) have received during the World Cup in Germany because she finds the rest of the women's flash lifestyles superficial and "embarrassing".

The 23-year-old spent her time supporting her fiance in Germany with the former Spice Girl - away from the other wives and girlfriends.

"Victoria was so welcoming," she said. "She wasn't intimidating or starry at all. We had a right laugh together."
