Will.i.am has been discussing Cheryl Cole's recent dismissal as a judge on the US X Factor, and says he knows she'll be back stronger than ever.
The Black Eyed Peas singer cited Cheryl's past troubles as a reason that this is definitely not going to stop her, and also said she has bigger things than The X Factor planned. Will told Heat:
"Cheryl always comes back stronger, and she always comes back bigger. Cheryl has been through rougher things than this, so this is going to be no problem for her.
"Cheryl has always said that the UK version of the show is important to her, and she owes it a lot.
"Over the next few months Cheryl is potentially going to be working with artists like Rihanna, Katy Perry, Usher and, of course, the Peas."
Simon Cowell isn't to blame, Cheryl's manager went on to say:
"It's easy to imagine Simon as this one-man empire, but that's not the case.
"He has people he needs to answer to and sometimes his hands are tied. I can only tell you what I've seen first-hand, that's a guy who deeply cares for her."
Aww.
