Cheryl Cole is continuing on her quest to take over the world by adding yet another string to her bow.
The Girls Aloud singer is in talks to host a Channel 4 fashion-based show.
Having already sat in the judging chair on The X Factor, she has proved to be quite a natural in front of the cameras.

'Channel 4 is working with her on a variety of ideas as she's interested in doing something with a bit more depth than just a frivolous fashion show.'
While various ideas are still being discussed, the 28-year-old is keen to present a programme as she delves behind-the-scenes of the industry.

Cheryl's career has been in the lurch since being fired from The X Factor USA and then refusing an offer to rejoin the UK version.
She filmed a brief role in What To Expect When You're Expecting, alongside A-list giants Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez and Dennis Quaid.
The new project is said to have been partly inspired by the documentaries Cole's bandmates Nicola Roberts and Kimberley Walsh previously made.

Solo star Roberts, 25, confronted the tanning industry in BBC3 show What Would You Do To Get A Tan?, in which she explored the lengths people will go to in order to look sunkissed - whilst admitting she was 'tanorexic'.
Meanwhile, 29-year-old Walsh, who has just taken over from Amanda Holden as Princess Fiona in Shrek: The Musical, recorded a programme about the perfect jeans, called Kimberley Walsh: Blue Jean Girl.
A Channel 4 source added: 'We are talking to Cheryl about working together, but it's early days.'
