    ‘They are now thinking about releasing the song as her debut US single as it will be great exposure for her if used on such a well-loved show such as Glee,' the insider continued.

    Another source added: ‘If this works out it would be a dream come true for Cheryl. Glee is one of the biggest shows in America - you can't buy publicity like that.’
