Amy Winehouse claims Cheryl Cole fancies her.

The troubled star insisted the Girls Aloud singer - who is married to soccer ace Ashley Cole - has a crush on her during a bizarre rant to a fan via her intercom at her north London home.

She said in a recording transcribed in Britain's News of the World newspaper: "I love Cheryl, I love Cheryl. She fancies me I'm telling you."

The 'Rehab' singer - who claimed she was sitting in her underwear eating cottage pie during the chat - went on to slam Cheryl's fellow judges on UK TV talent show 'The X Factor' - Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Dannii Minogue.

She said: "Let me say one thing that is pertinent and I won't swear on it either. It's got nothing to do with Simon Cowell, although everything that's wrong in the world probably does.

"I mean, he's the reason that all them hairdressers haven't taken their pictures out of the window since the 60s."

Amy, 25, continued the attack with an impression of Irish music mogul Louis, going to say he "don't know s**t" and claiming he has no personality.

She added of Dannii: "She's so embarrassing.

"Dannii always has to stand up, she always has to stand up. You ever noticed that?"

The singer continued her tirade by mocking the music collection of her husband Blake Fielder-Civil - who is currently being treated at a rehabilitation clinic following his release from prison after serving less than half of his 27-month sentence for grievous bodily harm and perverting the course of justice.

She added: "My husband's favourite band is the Beautiful South. It's just so funny.

"One night very shortly after we met, I rolled a spliff. We were sitting in the kitchen and he's going through my CDs and he put on Lionel Ritchie's 'Hello'. I started p**sing myself."
