The Girls Aloud star and X Factor's favourite judge has been holed up in a London hotel for the past few days whilst she conducts interviews to promote her solo tour.

But everyone needs a coffee break and Chezza was no exception, making a trip to Starbucks in South Kensington, this weekend.

The 26-year-old beauty was dressed down in black trosuers, grey jumper and heels and had time to chat with builder Claudio Case.

The builder told the Daily Mail, ‘She was really nice,’ he said. ‘I’ve always been a big fan of hers from X Factor and Girls Aloud and I couldn’t believe it when I saw her.

“Even though she’s this huge star she was so down to earth and seemed really interested in talking to me about how my day was going.”

He added, “She was very charming and so beautiful in real life – just how she looks on television.”

It seems our Cheryl can't help but charm the pants off everyone she meets. Nice to see she's keeping in touch with her roots...
