Cheryl Cole 'homesick in Los Angeles'

Cheryl Cole is reportedly struggling with homesickness while in Los Angeles.
The Girls Aloud singer has apparently been working with a vocal coach in preparation for a role on the upcoming US version of The X Factor. However, The Sun claims that Cole is finding it difficult to be separated from her mother Joan.

"Cheryl was missing Joan just a few hours after she landed," a source told the paper. "She reckons it will need visits from her mum at least every fortnight and she will try to fly home every other week - even if just for a couple of days.

"She asks that every room she stays in has similar furnishings and pictures so she doesn't feel too displaced."

They added: "Derek [Hough] bought her some Haribo the other day and she said even they tasted different, so she's planning on getting her favourite sweets posted over."

Cheryl Cole 'pretended to kiss Bieber'

Cheryl Cole allegedly gave Justin Bieber "a pretend snog" at last week's Brit Awards.

The Sunday Mirror reports that the 'Promise This' singer jumped on the unsuspecting Bieber with her hand over his mouth after she spotted him glancing over.

"Cheryl was in great spirits. She kept catching Justin ­staring over at her. So she surprised him and pretended to kiss him," a source claimed.

While the X Factor judge left the Brits without a gong despite her two nominations, the 16-year-old 'Baby' singer won the 'International Breakthrough Act' trophy.

Cole 'pays £3k for royal airport suite'

Cheryl Cole is thought to have paid £3,000 to access a private lounge at Heathrow Airport.

The Mirror reports that the singer stopped off at the exclusive Windsor suite last weekend after flying back from South Africa with Derek Hough.

An airport source told the paper: "Aside from the private suite used by the Queen and Prince Philip, the Windsor suite is the most exclusive area of the airport. It’s used by all the rest of the royal family - Prince Charles, Prince Andrew, Harry and William - plus the prime minister, visiting foreign presidents and royalty.

"Victoria Beckham was the first celeb to start using the Windsor suite, now Cheryl’s in on it too. She's in pretty good company - it shows how far she's come in her career."
