WILL.I.AM has a serious crush on co-singer!

BLACK EYED PEAS rapper will.i.am has revealed a big crush on his latest collaborator - British singer CHERYL COLE. The My Humps hitmaker teamed up with the Girls Aloud star on his new single Heartbreaker, and will.i.am admits he has developed an infatuation with the brunette beauty after seeing her dance in a series of skimpy outfits for the music video. And the hip-hop star insists Cole, who is married to English soccer ace Ashley Cole, is one of the sexiest women in the music industry - rating her higher than gorgeous Canadian Nelly Furtado.

When quizzed about Cole on British morning show GMTV, he said: "Nelly Furtado is hot but Cheryl is hotter. "If you measured it on a scale of hot to 10. Cheryl is a 10. She is hot."
