Cheryl slams 'cruel' weight jibes

Size zero Cheryl Cole has defended attacks on her fellow band mates' weight and a recent report highlighting cellulite on singer Nadine Coyle's thighs as 'cruel'.

Hitting out the WAG beauty told Hello!: 'There's too much pressure on women of their size these days. Girls are constantly being told they're either too fat or too thin, which is irresponsible.'

The singer, 25, said she wishes the group were stars in the 1950s instead, a time where women were proud of their shapes and dimples.

'You can even see the cellulite on their bodies,' she said of past Hollywood icons.

'It's really refreshing to see as women are criticized so cruelly today for having the slightest bit of fat or cellulite.'

Cole added: 'Women looked like real women in those days. I was reading an old book about Hollywood starlets from the 1950s and loved the photographs inside. You can see the women's true shapes as their pictures were never retouched.'

The full interview is out in Hello! Tuesday.
