Cheryl Cole wear sexy white dress: Looking Hot: Smiling demurely for the camera, the GIRLS ALOUD star seems to be settling quite happily into the California lifestyle. Cheryl, 27, avoided Oscars bashes despite being in Los Angeles during the glitzy film awards. Instead she split her time between working, relaxing and seeing her dancer pal DEREK HOUGH. A friend said: "Cheryl's in LA for a photoshoot for a new magazine campaign. She's also been working on some new music out here. "In between she spent time with Derek and even got a chance to meet with his family, which was nice."Cheryl plans to return to the UK at the end of the week.
