Will.i.am: Cheryl's X Factor role was 'waste of talent'

Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am says Cheryl Cole’s stint as an X Factor judge was a “waste of talent”.

The Voice coach – who collaborated with the Girls Aloud star on tracks including Heartbreaker and 3 Words – - said he was pleased to see his friend concentrating on her chart career again because she has too much musical talent to “just be some TV star”.
