Cheryl Cole hits the gym for first time since malaria battle
Cheryl Cole Cheryl Cole has hit the gym for the first time in two months after battling malaria.
The 27-year-old star was given the all clear from the bug four weeks ago and has now returned to the gym in a bid to look good for an upcoming photo shoot.
A source said to UK newspaper Daily Mirror: "Cheryl hasn't been able to exercise in over two months and it's been frustrating the hell out of her.
"Now she's feeling better, she is desperate to start boosting her cardiovascular fitness. But the main incentive is the forthcoming photoshoot of her next solo album.
"Originally put back, it's been rescheduled for a couple of weeks' time, and she wants to be in brilliant shape. Cheryl knows she's not overweight, but she is not as toned as she could be.
"The album shoot will be really arty but will see her in minimal clothing."
