Cheryl Cole `lands three film roles`

The 27-year-old US X Factor judge spent four days meeting the people in power at LA production companies, and by Sunday was believed to have secured parts in three movies.

A source told The Sun, 'It has been amazing to see the reception Cheryl has had after going to Cannes.

'As soon as she got back to America, people from California were getting in touch about having her in their films.

'When she went to the festival last year there was a lot of interest from the media but nothing like this kind of attention from movie companies. It just shows how quickly her profile has rocketed now she is on the US X Factor.

'At the moment it's just about sorting out when she can actually fit in any filming because her schedule is full until Christmas. She's very keen though.'

And according to the report, even Angelina Jolie has taken to the star, hailing her 'very beautiful'.
