Just call her Cheryl

Cheryl Cole appears to be following in the footsteps of one-named stars such as Madonna and Rihanna as rumours have begun to surface that she could be ditching her last name for the sake of her recording career.

It appears Chezza will be releasing all her future material under her first name alone in a bid to forget anything negative from the past.

Although the former Girls Aloud singer is not dropping her marital name completely, the change has sparked suggestions that she is finally putting her marriage to footballer Ashley Cole behind her - at last!

Cheryl was spotted in Los Angeles this week filming for her her new comeback track Call My Name, which will be followed later in the year by her third solo album.

But will the new name stick?
