Cheryl's performance on Sunday night's X Factor has sparked complaints to watchdog Ofcom from viewers, who deemed her set 'too raunchy'.
The 35-year-old singer made a return to the ITV show where she once served as a judge to perform her comeback single Love Made Me Do It, but a number of viewers were upset by her racy stage antics during her pre-watershed appearance.
She was seen gyrating against musclebound male dancers, gyrated and writhing around on the floor and suggestively licking her hand as she put on a performance which divided viewers, a number of whom slammed her 'terrible vocals'.

Twerking up a storm: Cheryl's performance on Sunday night's X Factor has sparked complaints to watchdog Ofcom from viewers, who deemed her set 'too raunchy'.
The mother-of-one's live unveiling of her single attracted 15 complaints to Ofcom from viewers, who were far from impressed with her stage antics, which were aired before the 9pm watershed.
An Ofcom spokesperson told MailOnline: 'We are assessing these complaints against our broadcasting rules before deciding whether or not to investigate.'
Cheryl began her routine by crawling along the floor, delivering a sultry dance routine - but some viewers weren't convinced by her live vocals, with some branding her 'terrible', saying she should 'give up'.

Long-awaited: The singer's performance on the show was seen as an anticipated comeback
And even head judge Simon Cowell was seen questioning whether she was OK as she lay on her back at the end of her performance, in a puff of smoke.
The singer looked incredible in a tasseled black bodysuit and thigh-high boots for her big return and other viewers defended her saying 'she can't win' and praising her 'amazing' stage show.
Cheryl gyrated around the stage, at one point lying down on the floor for a sexy segment with her backing dancers.
The brunette beauty was back to her best, wearing her long hair down in loose curls and a bronzed make-up look.
The Girls Aloud star proved she's still got the moves as she powered through the complex dance routine.

But the high-energy performance was slammed by some fans on Twitter as they criticised the star's live vocals.
'This is like me drunk at karaoke' tweeted one viewer, while another added: 'Is it just me or does Cheryl sound out of tune? And you can't really hear her like what's the point?'
'Xfactor you dropped the ball on this one. Just because an artist starts off on your show doesn't mean you have them back!'
'That was terrible! Brilliant dancer but her vocals were awful sorry but I think she should give up the singing and stick to the dancing didn’t sound good at all.'

Others rushed to Cheryl's defence though, with one pointing out the singer was brave to go '100% live' on one of the biggest show's on TV.
'I actually don't mind the song, not her best but good. Yeah she's no Beyonce vocally, she knows that. If she mimes people hate, if she sings and hits a few off notes while dancing, you hate. I enjoyed the performance and I love her.'
'You smashed it Cheryl. So good to see you back looking amazing. keep doing you were behind you 100% you Slayed #LOVEMADEMEDOIT.'
'So proud of @CherylOfficial performance last night on the @TheXFactor you could tell she was so nervous after 4 year break but she still smashed it around the park. Congrats Cheryl is soldiers are happy for you.'
'Don’t get the hate on @CherylOfficial X factor perf. She looked great and she sang live. If she had mimed, everyone would have slagged her. Can’t win! I thought she was fab loved the solo dance at the end!'
'That was great. Dunno why the rest are so negative. Danced beautifully, sang live and a great song. Bet none of these people could sing standing up never mind dancing at the same time lol.'
At the end of her performance, Simon turned to Louis Tomlinson with a look of concern on his face, asking if Cheryl was alright.
The singer was laying motionless at the end of her energetic performance for a matter of seconds when Simon's words were picked up.
Others praised the mum-of-one's incredible look, deeming her their 'dream girl'.

The performance earned a standing ovation from judges Simon Cowell, Ayda Field and Louis Tomlinson.
Nile Rodgers, who is standing in for Robbie Williams while he is in tour later denied he had snubbed Cheryl by not giving her a standing ovation.

Asked how it was to be back, Cheryl replied: 'It feels good. I think they've all been unique and amazing. Dalton is killing it.'
However, she was left a little red faced when she failed to remember double act Acacia and Aaliyah's names, with one fan quipping: 'She may have run out of surnames and she doesn't know the name of the contestants but that was BANGING! So glad Our Chezza is BACK!!!'

'She has been in rehearsals for the last few days and the routine will see her writhing around on the ground with 12 hot men dancing around her.
'No one has told Cheryl what to do, but they’ve been keeping a close eye on the creative team so the routine is suitable for a family audience.'
MailOnline has contacted representatives for Cheryl and The X Factor for comment.
This comes as Cheryl insisted she will quit her musical comeback if her new album flops, for the sake of her son Bear.

That's one way to make an entrance! The former TV judge began by crawling on her knees
The star said she doesn't want to 'spend time away' from one-year-old Bear if her new single Love Made Me Do It - which she released last week after a four-year hiatus - doesn't do well.
'If the song goes in at 80 [in the charts], it's time for me to move on with my life,' the pop songstress firmly told The Guardian on Saturday.
She added: 'I'm not going to jump around working hard and spending time away from my son for that.'
Love Made Me Do It did however suffer a blow on Friday night as it battled into the charts at number 19.
Peace out! Cheryl proved she was always the best dancer in Girls Aloud

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
