'I've got 2,000 pairs of shoes', says Cheryl... who even hoards them in the fridge

Shoe queen: Cheryl Cole promotes her new range of footwear for www.stylistpick.com in this week's Grazia Magazine



She's only 5ft 3in tall, so you’d expect Cheryl Cole to have a few pairs of high heels.

Actually, she has more than a few...

The singer has owned up to owning 2,000 pairs, adding: ‘I hoard them all over the house: in cupboards in the kitchen, in the bathroom – every room.

‘There is a big chance when you open the fridge in my house there will be a pair of shoes at the bottom.’

The former X Factor judge, 28, said: ‘I’ve always, always loved shoes but over the past few years I’ve definitely developed a proper fetish.

'I actually own about 2,000 pairs of shoes – and that’s after giving quite a few away.’

Miss Cole, who boasts that she can walk and dance in shoes ‘of any height’, told Grazia magazine: ‘Because I’m quite small, to me getting dressed is all about the heels.



Shoes make the outfit: Cheryl is rarely seen in the same pair of heels twice, which is no surprise if she has 2,000 pairs



'I have a pair of Louboutins that are so cripplingly painful – but I’m trying to ease myself into them gently, wearing them for a few minutes every now and again.’

The singer, who was sacked from the X Factor USA in May dashing her Hollywood dreams, said: ‘For me, all shoes have memories - wearing them on a certain occasion like that means the shoe gets that memory.

‘If I can’t wear them again I also can’t get rid of them because they are so linked to that emotion. I’m probably a bit bonkers like that.’

She added: ‘My absolute aim is killer shoes that don’t kill your feet. I can walk in heels of any height and I can dance in them because I’ve just been doing this for so long,’ she says.

‘As a kid I was a ballet dancer and I always had really sore toes.

‘I had to have them broken and re-straightened, which sorted them out.



The star said she was pleased to have a fuller figure again after losing weight earlier this year.

She is now a size eight after putting on seven pounds in the last six months. Doctors had advised her to put weight on after she battled malaria.

And the petite singer said: ‘The curves are back, well and truly. I’ve got my boobs and bum back and, yeah, I like it. I think it’s sexy.”
