The famous pop star who is currently appearing on X Factor as a Judge alongside Simon Cowell has enjoyed a family friend image and is among Britain as well as world’s top selling performers. Recent development in the scandal has been that Cheryl Fernandez Versini and her team are considering taking legal action against the video which has been established as a fake with the star’s face superimposed over an actress’ body. Cheryl’s case is not the first since numerous digital changes are made to real porn stars body and often famous celebs faces are morphed onto them.

As interesting digital developments regarding image manipulation sound, the developments are just as scary if misused and Cheryl’s fake porn video is just one of the many instances. The adult website Pornhub has been the platform for the world to view this video that is already surpassed more than a million views and is said to be a trending choice among visitors.

Tabloids reported a close source to be stating that Cheryl’s pretty annoyed at the porn site’s cheap gimmicks for luring punters with the lurid videos and is cashing in on using her name for cheap publicity. The source added that for somebody like Cheryl who has worked hard for years to have cultivated a beloved image of a family friendly pop star liked by all age groups, being associated with something as sleazy as a sex video on an adult website does incomprehensible damage.

A spokesman for the singer confirmed that her legal team was looking into the matter. Reports have surfaced that X factor team is also pestered about the video that’s longer than 10 minutes in duration and is available to watch free of cost. Another headache for the star and associated acts is that the matter could be dragged on in court and it could delay the removal of the obscene content defaming Cheryl for months and do massive damage to her reputation. Another concern is that given the way starlets and those in line to be famous are leaking their porn videos, a lot of people many may jump to conclusions and believe the video to be real and another lewd attempt at the 2 minutes of fame phenomenon.
Also, the adult website, Pornhub is available for free to cost and makes money for its owners through advertising deals that are arranged as per the views per video.
