Cheryl is set to make her hotly anticipated TV return next year, starring alongside Strictly's Oti Mabuse and Glee's Matthew Morrison on The Greatest Dancer judging panel.
But Dancing on Ice's Jason Gardiner has made his feelings about the singer's appearance on the show very clear, launching a scathing attack on Cheryl and questioning her judging credentials.
In an interview with The Mirror, he said, "The judging line up on that is questionable as well...what’s her dance background? Where is her dance background?
"She went to Royal Ballet School that you pay for, an extortionate amount to go to because mum and dad just want to drop you off somewhere for the holidays."

And one Chezza probably wants to forget...
Cheryl previously confirmed she attended the Royal Ballet Summer School on a scholarship, but left at the age of nine as she "didn't fit in".
Jason's comments are sure to come as a blow to the former X Factor judge, as it was recently reported she was feuding with fellow judge Oti.
A source told The Sun, “Cheryl arrived with such an air of superiority - a few of the crew thought she was being a bit of a diva.

“Oti has years of dance competition experience alongside Strictly where she’s been massively popular with fans – but has absolutely no ego at all. They didn’t seem to gel and it was pretty uncomfortable."
A representative denied the claims however, explaining, “It’s a fabricated story - yet again trying to pit female against female on a TV show. It’s a shame we haven’t moved past this.
"Cheryl absolutely loves working with Oti and has a brilliant relationship with her."
