Cheryl Cole has held her first major interview since her break-up with Ashley Cole, speaking out about her rumoured love interest, Black Eyed Peas star Will.i.am.

The rapper and songwriter produced Cheryl's debut solo album, 3 Words and has reportedly described the Girls Aloud star as his "perfect 10".

He is even rumoured to have said he would move to London if she would go out with him.

Speaking to Radio One Cheryl said: "I would work with Will for the rest of my career if I could. He is absolutely inspiring, futuristic, creative."

She also reacted to being voted the most inspirational woman of the decade in an online poll, admitting she has made made mistakes and bad choices but believes it is this that makes her an inspiration to many people in the UK.

Cole is looking forward to her upcoming tour but revealed she will miss the rest of the Girls Aloud girls.

Meanwhile, estranged husband Ashley Cole will begin to put his nightmare two months behind him as he goes back to training at Chelsea after injuring his foot.
