Close: Cheryl Cole was spotted arriving at her home with Derek Hough on Thursday and Friday nights last week


Cheryl Cole has spent three nights with dancer Derek Hough at the home she once shared with ex Ashley, it was claimed today.

The singer was spotted arriving at her home with the handsome dancer, 25, on Thursday and Friday nights last week, just days after she filed for divorce from Cole.

The pair have become increasingly close after they performed a raunchy dance routine for the video clip for her single Parachute.


Friends: The pair seemed deep in conversation as they sat in the back of a taxi


Derek flew to be by Cheryl's side just hours after he and Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger were crowned U.S. Dancing with the Stars champions last week.

A source told The News of the World: 'Cheryl was desperate to see Derek. She's been speaking to him almost every day and he's helped her get through this awful time.'

'She really wanted Derek to come to London to be with her earlier but he couldn't leave the States because he was partnering Nicole Scherzinger on Dancing with the Stars.

'But that ended just as Cheryl decided to go through with the divorce. She begged Derek to come and he instantly agreed.'


Up close and personal: Derek joined Cheryl on stage at the O2 Arena this week as she performed her single Parachute


Chemistry: Derek joined Cheryl on stage after watching her performance from the wings


Their chemistry was evident as Derek joined her on stage at the O2 arena after watching from the wings on Thursday night.

The pair performed their dance routine for Parachute and Cheryl then invited her friend back to her luxurious Surrey mansion, where he reportedly spent three nights.

'It was a very big decision on her part. But she loves spending time with Derek,' a source told the News of the World.


Friendship: Derek, pictured with Cheryl in LA in February, has been a source of comfort to the star during her split from Ashley Cole


A friend said Ashley, who is currently in Austria preparing for the World Cup, would view Cheryl's behaviour as a 'devastating blow.'

But they said Derek was likely to become more significant in the Girls Aloud star's life.

'Derek's the complete opposite to Ashley. He's very caring and supportive to Cheryl.

She's made it very clear she can't rush into another serious relationship, but he's very keen on her and is prepared to follow her around the world.'

She's opened up to him about Ashley so he knows how vulnerable she is at the moment, which makes him want to be there for her even more.

Cheryl has also been linked with Black Eyed Peas star Will-i-am, who is said to have fallen for the 26-year-old.


Split: Cheryl announced she was filing for divorce this week, four years after marrying Ashley

Mind the oven! Kelly Brook promotes Reebok's EasyTone trainers by posing in a black and white pair of knickers


She has never been shy about showing off her figure.

So when the opportunity arose for Kelly Brook to promote Reebok's new EasyTone trainers, she had no problem stripping to her underwear in a rather gratuitous way of showing off the toning footwear.

Whether it's cooking in a pair of black and white striped knickers and cropped T-shirt, or doing the hoovering in a yellow vest top and lime green pair, Kelly shows whatever you are doing, you can wear EasyTones while doing it.


She said: 'EasyTones are brilliant, it's like having a little gym built into your trainers. I wear them all the time especially if I don't have time to get to the gym and then at least I know I'm doing something for my body.

'They make your legs feel toned and bum feel pert, they are like magic shoes! I've been wearing them to tone up for the summer and have really seen a difference, which is why I didn't mind getting my hotpants on for the video.

'I had so much fun re-creating the advert - hula-hooping, trampolining, dancing around in my EasyTones. My dog Rocky even got a guest appearance in the last shot!'


Clean freak: Kelly makes sure her 'flat' is spotless as she does the hoovering in a skimpy underwear set


Glowing: The model looks stunning in the Reebok advert - showing off her famous figure and sparkling smile


Kelly, 30, isn't the only celebrity fan of the revolutionary new trainers - Helena Christensen, Kim Kardashian, Whitney Port, Miranda Kerr and Bar Refaeli have all spoken about how impressed they are by the fitness shoes.

Kelly, who is currently in Los Angeles with boyfriend Danny Cipriani, has always spoken freely about her weight, and says it's sometimes a struggle to maintain her slimline shape.

She said recently: 'I enjoy healthy food and it makes me feel good. But it’s definitely not a crazy diet, I’m not going to deny myself desserts.






Fashion icon: Kelly has been wearing flirty outfits during her time in Los Angeles with Danny Cipriani


'I always try to have three meals a day and don’t snack on bad stuff. I like to make soups, which are healthy, filling and don’t make you feel bloated. I also love making healthy fish or vegetarian dishes.'

Kelly is also the face and body of lingerie brand Ultimo, and has been showing off her amazing figure in a series of flirty outfits while in LA.

After wearing a tight heart-print dress earlier this week, Kelly stepped out in a flowery playsuit to make the most of the LA sun.

In disguise: Tom Cruise reprised his Tropic Thunder alter ego, Les Grossman, in a new promotional video for MTV Movie Awards


Heartthrob Robert Pattinson recently admitted he rarely washes his hair, and it has proved good fodder for a new promotional clip for the MTV Movie Awards.
The Twilight star teamed up with Tom Cruise for a spoof video ahead of the June ceremony.

Cruise stars in the clip as his Tropic Thunder alter ego, Les Grossman, complete with bald head and bulging tummy.

Dirty work: Cruise encourages Pattinson to keep his 'filthy hair' just as it is


As the foul-mouthed movie mogul, Cruise issues some rather colourful advice to Pattinson, who begins the clip by discussing his plans to overhaul his scruffy look for the awards.

Pattinson says: 'I'm thinking about cleaning up a little bit, maybe get a suit, have a shave, maybe wash my hair.'

In full Grossman mode, Cruise tells the star he'll arrange a hairdresser to give him a blow wave, before adding: 'And then I'll give you the number of a good plumber because you've just flushed your f****** career down the toilet!


'Mega mogul': Cruise performs a little dance as he gets into Grossman mode


'You're filthy hair made you a star! Your filthy hair made me hundreds of millions of dollars and sent my fat-a**** kid to space camp four times!'

He continues: 'So what kind of shampoo are you going to use?'

To which Pattinson replies: 'Dirt?'

The pair then hug as Cruise shouts: 'That's my dirty dog!'


Cut! A separate video shows Les Grossman directing Tom's famous Risky Business scene


A little bit cheeky: Grossman gets to grips with the scene


In a separate video, Cruise is shown filming his famous dance scene in Risky Business, but this time with Grossman from directing.

Hosted by Aziz Ansari, the MTV Movie Awards will be broadcast live from the Gibson Amphitheatre.

Guests will include Sandra Bullock, Adam Sandler, Taylor Lautner, Chris Rock, Steve Carell and Cameron Diaz.

MTV Movie Awards takes place on Sunday, June 6 on MTV.

Miley, how you've grown! Miss Cyrus performed at the Rock in Rio music festival in Portugal today


Miley Cyrus is desperate to shed her wholesome Disney image - and she's certainly going about it the right way.

The Hannah Montana actress took to the stage at the Rock in Rio music festival in Lisbon, Portugal, today in a very daring outfit.

The 17-year-old put on a series of raunchy moves as she strutted around in a corset-style costume.

She topped off the revealling outfit with a studded leather jacket and towering peep-toe shoe boots.


All grown up: The teen strutted around in a raunchy costume

The star is promoting her new single, Can't Be Tamed, and is clearly eager to keep up with the likes of sexy pop stars including Lady Gaga, Rihanna and Britney Spears.

It comes just weeks after a video of her 'dirty dancing' with 45-year-old film producer Adam Shankman surfaced on the internet.

The clip, which was filmed when Miley was just 16, was originally posted by celebrity website TMZ.com before hitting YouTube. But it has now been removed.


Keeping up with the pop stars: The singer appears to be mimicking the likes of Lady Gaga and Rihanna


However, it didn't worry her father, singer Billy Ray Cyrus, who spent last week in Mexico with Miley and the rest of his family.

He said Miley was merely 'having fun' and 'doing what people her age do'.

Meanwhile, Miley has decided that she plans to put her education on hold while she focuses on acting and singing.

She said: 'I am a firm believer that you can go back at any age you want, because my grandma went back to college at 62 years old.'

Britain's Got Talent: Tears, tantrums and heartbreak as final round of auditions ends in style

By Mail Online Showbiz Reporter

Emotional: Dance group A3 were tearful after performing but the trio went sailing through to the semi-final


The final round of auditions for Britain's Got Talent were as bizarre as ever tonight with a miming pig, a pole dancer and a Madonna drag act all performing for judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan.

There were tantrums and tears, but the most emotional moment of the night came when brothers Amukheani, Arnold and Anthony, otherwise known as A3, broke down after their performance.

'It just means so much and we've practised so hard as a family. It's all we want to do.' said Arnold.


Band of brothers: The trio from Swansea wowed the judges with their talent and commitment


The sensitive trio, from Swansea, even brought a tear to the eye of host Ant McPartlin, who was watching from backstage.

'He's got me going now,' he said. But the judges were full of praise for the youngsters who danced to Prodigy hit Firestarter, before switching to a Michael Jackson medley.

'I like the fact that you’re three brothers and you worked really hard to be here,' said Piers.

And while Simon told the boys that their routine 'ran out of steam' towards the end, he said he was impressed by them.

'Exceptionally talented, love your enthusiasm, love your commitment and love the fact that you're brothers as well.'


Unimpressed: Judges Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell look on in horror as AliBaba perform


Time of their life? AliBaba perform a move from Dirty Dancing, but the Turk almost drops his partner


The most bizarre performance came at the start of the show when a woman named Christine brought her pet pig to mime to the Michael Jackson hit Beat It.

‘I didn’t believe you when you said he was going to mime to the record,’ remarked Simon.

‘Does he do other songs? I don’t think it was quite the Michael Jackson tribute everyone was expecting,’ he added before putting them through to the next round.

Meanwhile pole dancer Alesia Vazmitel impressed the judges with her flexibility.

‘That was mesmerising,’ said Piers while Simon quipped, ‘I’ve never seen anyone do that with a pole before.’

Dance group Peridot had the audience on their feet with an energetic routine.


Splash of colour: Dance Flavourz were put through to the next round, even though Simon said he didn't know what to do with them


Crowd pleasers: Dance group Peridot had the audience up in the seats, but Simon told them they had a long way to go


However Simon warned the boys that there were stronger dance acts in the competition and told them they’d have to work twice as hard if they were to make it through.

Next up were Ali Baba, a double act consisting of friends Memit and Kelsey, whose strange dance routine which included steps from Michael Jackson and Dirty Dancing, fell flat with the judges.

Memit stunned the crowd when he walked off stage after hearing two buzzers go off, but was convinced to return by hosts Ant and Dec.

‘It just seemed desperate,’ remarked Amanda before sending them home.

Meanwhile ventriloquist Stephen Florence launched an attack on the audience after they booed him during his routine with dummy Wellington.

'I could do some decent ventriloquism if you’d all shut up! You are rude people,’ he ranted before being asked to leave the stage.


Bewitched: Dance troupe with a twist: Fusion performed dressed as witches


On for a song: Father and son act Graham and James


Dance Flavourz, a troupe made up of 11 women and one man, performed for the judges next.

'That was really, really special and you are utterly compelling to watch,' Piers told them.

However Simon was less enthusiastic. 'If I'm being honest this is total, utter madness. I don't know what to do with you,' he said.

Dance troupe with a twist, Fusion performed dressed as witches and divided the judges.

'The costumes were very inventive,'said Piers. 'The choreography was fantastic. It was really quite sinister, you are a scary bunch.


Poledancer Alesia impressed the judges with her flexibility


Stars of the future? Eyebrow raising act Nathan (left) and Madonna tribute Phillip Grimmer


Singer Kev Orkian performed Elton John's I'm Still Standing - the scratched CD version - to the amazement of the judges.

Madonna tribute act Phillip Grimmer returned to the show two years after performing as Kylie Minogue.

'You have definitely improved,' Piers told him. But Simon disagreed.

'The problem was the dancing,' he said. 'The dancing was horrific.'

However Amanda said she enjoyed his performance. 'People underestimate just how much courage it takes for people to stand on that stage... I'm going to say yes.' she said.
