VIDEO : Cheryl Cole & Liam Payne Attend BRITS Together Despite Rumors

Despite facing breakup rumors, singers Cheryl Cole, 34, and Liam Payne, 24, stepped out for a date night at the BRITs on Thursday. Payne was seen whispering in Cole?s ear and kissing her on the cheek on the red carpet as cameras flashed. Earlier this week, Cole addressed the rumors as she promoted her charity campaign in England, telling the BBC, ?Do I find it frustrating? No, it doesn?t bother me. My focus is only on this. It?s taken me seven years to get here and none of that matters.
