Girls Aloud star Nadine Coyle has said that she knew that her solo single would not beat Cheryl Cole's latest track in the singles' chart.

Speaking to Star magazine, Coyle said: "The truth is, I knew I could never take on Cheryl."

"She has all the power of 'The X Factor' and Simon Cowell behind her. It's a massive advantage."

"I would totally love to have someone like Simon in my camp - who wouldn't? He can make big things happen and he has the whole music business under his control."

"To be honest, I'm happier doing what I'm doing now, no matter what the sales are like."

"I'd rather be singing in pubs for 50 quid a night and be happy than doing something that I wasn't really interested in or passionate about."

"For me, it's not about money or fame or getting on big television shows - it's about being happy with myself. That's what making this album was all about."
