Cheryl
Cole has come out victorious in her court battle with X-Factor, and has
reportedly earned a lot of money as spoils. The former Girls Aloud star took
the show’s producer Blue Orbit to court after she was sacked from the programme
after just three weeks on the judging panel.
And while the amount
of money received has not been confirmed, the initial lawsuit stated that she
was owed £1.4million.
Speaking to The
Metro, a source said: “It was about the production company and the contract
they signed. This was the final sticking point and mean everything has been
resolved. She’s been paid.”
The
11-page lawsuit filed at the time said that although she was paid £1.1million
salary for season now, she was still owed £1.25million for the show’s second
season plus a £62,000 wardrobe allowance, a £15,500 stylist allowance, a
£9,300-a-month living allowance and £1,550-a-month living expenses.
She has also
requested that Blue Orbit productions should reimburse the cost of bodyguards
and the first-class flights she took to Los Angeles as well as flights for
members of her entourage.
Cheryl was initially
left furious when she was sacked from the show, after US viewers reportedly
struggled to understand her Geordie accent.
