Cheryl and Kelly Rowland enjoy night out at Manchester gay bar during The Voice UK filming
Cheryl and Kelly Rowland were spotted enjoying a lively evening together at Via, a gay bar located on Manchester's famous Canal Street, on Tuesday. The two singers, who are currently working together as coaches on the new series of The Voice UK, were seen singing and dancing to Kelly's 2010 hit Commander, with Cheryl later performing her own track Fight For This Love. Cheryl, 43, dressed in a fluorescent pink and green blazer with matching fuchsia heels and a statement 'Love' necklace, while Kelly, 45, wore a plunging PVC jumpsuit. The outing comes as both stars are in Manchester filming blind auditions for the show, alongside fellow new coach Aitch and returning coach will.i.am. However, this series has been overshadowed by controversy following the departure of long-standing coach Sir Tom Jones, who claims he was fired by ITV due to insurance-related financial difficulties. Sources suggest tension on set, with will.i.am reportedly unhappy about how producers handled Tom's exit. ITV has thanked Sir Tom for his nine years on the show and indicated discussions continue about potential future involvement. This marks Cheryl's return to primetime television after six years, having last appeared as a dance captain on BBC's The Greatest Dancer in 2020.
