Cheryl Cole receives three film offers

Cheryl Cole has reportedly received three movie offers in the US.

The 'X Factor' star is said to have impressed Los Angeles film bosses during her four-day appearance at the Cannes Film Festival in the south of France so much they have approached her about appearing on the big screen.

A source said: "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'."

Although Cheryl will be busy judging pop hopefuls on the panel of the Stateside version of Simon Cowell's talent show, she is keen to try her hand at acting as soon as she gets the chance.

The source added to The Sun newspaper: "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."

It's not just production companies who have taken notice of the 27-year-old singer - Angelina Jolie has apparently been praising Cheryl as well.

The actress told her fans she thought Cheryl was "very beautiful" and revealed she is "causing a stir" in the US.
