Cheryl Cole says her life isn’t as perfect as some people might think.

The pretty Girls Aloud star hopes her fans know that, despite her fame, she’s still an ordinary person.

‘Hopefully people can see I make mistakes,’ Cheryl, 30, tells S Magazine.

‘I make bad choices and also I sometimes look terrible, just like anyone. That’s part of being a human being.

‘Yes, I sing and dance, and I’m a pop star, and I’ve got this amazing job, but at the same time I’m just a girl.

‘Well, a woman.’
