Girls Aloud Star Cheryl Cole Gets Annoyed When Fans Ask For Her Autograph While She's Dining Out

Cheryl Cole hates being interrupted while eating. The Girls Aloud star says being approached by fans while she is dining in restaurants is the most irritating aspect of her fame.

She said: "It annoys me when you're out eating with your parents, peas on a fork about to go in your mouth and someone goes, 'Excuse me, I don't want to bother you but...' and you think, 'But you're going to anyway and I'm going to drop my food all over me and get herbs stuck in my teeth and then a magazine will have me in their shame pictures.'"

Despite her annoyance, Cheryl insists she doesn't usually mind her fans interrupting her when she isn't at work.

She added: "I'll usually just ask them to wait until I've finish my food."

"The recognition has been a gradual thing with us, it can be a bit intense sometimes but it's when you don't get recognized or asked for autographs you should worry."
