Cheryl Cole to Drop Surname

If Madonna can do it without a last name, Cheryl Cole hopes she can too.

This is probably the last nail on the coffin, so to speak, for Cheryl Cole to finally get over her ex-husbands philandering ways.

After dissing Ashley Cole (although Cheryl did not confirm the diss) in her latest single, Cheryl Cole hopes to finally break free from her tumultuous failed marriage and get her ex-husband out of her system for good by dropping his surname.

According to reports, the singer will soon be simply known as Cheryl on all future music material.

Cheryl is beginning a new chapter in her life so she doesnt want to be associated with negative stuff from the past, a source was quoted as saying.

Shes not removing Cole legally, its just a career statement. Shes in a really good place at the moment and wants to take life by the balls.

She cant wait to start performing live again and her new stage name has given her comeback an extra bit of spice, the source added.
