Cheryl addresses rumours she's taking to the West End in Chicago show
She'd be a fantastic Roxie Hart!
Last updated 8th Jun 2018
Rumours have begun swirling that Cheryl Tweedy is in talks to appear as Roxie Hart in the West End production of Chicago. After watching the show on Wednesday (6th June) with some friends, Cheryl reportedly had a discussion with the New York producer of the show, Barry Weissler, who was also in the audience.
Apparently, they had a chat over whether Cheryl could take on the role of Roxie Hart in a "limited guest stint."
However, a rep for Cheryl has now told Metro.co.uk that the rumours are completely false, and that Cheryl was simply watching the show as a fan.
They said, "This is not true, Cheryl is not in talks to join Chicago. She just went to see it with friends as she is a fan of the show."
