Cheryl Cole has ordered X Factor winner Alexandra Burke to fatten up

Burke – who won the TV talent contest earlier this month; and is currently enjoying being Christmas number one with her single Hallelujah – has reportedly dropped from a size 12 to an 8.

And Girls Aloud star Cheryl thinks Alexandra is now too thin.

A source reveals, “Cheryl has been telling Alex she looks too skinny. She says she can see the weight loss in her face because her cheekbones stick out too much.

“But Alex thinks it’s crazy. She loves Cheryl to pieces but thinks, ‘Look who’s talking.’ Alex is very slim, but compared to Cheryl she looks like a giant. Cheryl is the one who needs to gain weight.

“Alex doesn’t diet. She just eats healthily. When the X Factor finals started, she would try even harder to opt for salads rather than some of the junk the other contestants were eating.”
