Cheryl Cole kicked off her first UK solo tour, playing an eight song, half-hour long set supporting the Black Eyed Peas at London's O2 Arena.

And it seems the Girls Aloud star is thick as thieves with tour buddies the Peas. So much so that Will.I.Am and Fergie are vying for her affections.

Will.I.Am, who worked with the X Factor judge on her solo album 3 Words, has made no secret of his feelings for Cheryl, calling her "the most beautiful woman in the world".

However, bisexual bandmate Fergie has been telling everyone she is more likely to bed Cheryl than he is.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Everyone has been teasing him ( Will.I.Am) about his crush. But when Fergie came out with this, everyone fell about laughing.

"She's mentioned it a few times now. And even Cheryl thinks it's hilarious."

Will.I.Am added: "I just still can't believe Cheryl was ever cheated on. I mean, what has to be going through your head."

Cheryl is currently deciding whether to forgive Ashley Cole for his affairs with other women. But if Will.I.Am and Fergie have their way, she'll be fighting for their love instead.
