What has Cheryl got in her diary for 2015?
Yesterday someone asked me if I still tour as a singer songwriter. I told them what I do now with my life and said, 'So, I'm not so Rock and Roll these days.' He replied, 'Oh I don't know, I'd say with what you're doing, you're totally Rock and Roll.'
See what you think ...
