Cheryl Cole
If you have been watching X Factor UK, I am sure that you are familiar with this next woman on the list. Not only was she a direct inspiration for Cheryl Hole in Drag Race UK, she also inspired girl groups that competed in X Factor UK, like 4th Impact. She is none other than Cheryl Cole.
Her real name is Cheryl Ann Tweedy, but is now only known as Cheryl. She is an English singer, dancer, and television personality. She rose to fame in 2002 when she won a place in Girls Aloud, a girl group created through ITV’s Popstars: The Rivals. She is truly an icon, as she is the first British female solo artist to have five number one singles in the UK.
