Cheryl Cole will take elocution lessons<\/p>\n

Cheryl Cole wants to get rid of her Newcastle twang<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Cheryl \u2028Cole<\/strong><\/a><\/strong><\/strong> has arrived in LA on the same flight as Victoria Beckham – and half an hour after Katie Price.<\/p>\n

The Girls Aloud <\/strong>star’s new role as a judge on The US <\/strong>X Factor<\/strong><\/a><\/strong> is expected to be confirmed any day, so Cheryl<\/strong>, 27, is meeting an American voice coach. <\/p>\n

Her Geordie accent and use of idiomatic expressions is still thought to be of concern to Fox executives. <\/p>\n

‘If audiences and contestants can’t understand her it is actually a regulatory offence<\/strong>,’ says a source.<\/p>\n

‘Cheryl<\/strong> will be told not to use the word “babe” to describe a pretty girl.<\/p>\n

‘Other key words she’s being taught include a “hard I” for words such as vitamin, saying “pants” and not “trousers”, “butt” not “bum” and “cookies” not “biscuits”.<\/p>\n

‘They also want to clamp down on her saying “pet” which literally means “animal” in the States.’<\/p>\n

Cheryl<\/strong>‘s also expected to spend quality time with confidante Derek Hough<\/strong><\/a>, 25, who recently visited her<\/strong> London. If she can squeeze him in. <\/p>\n

‘These are very exciting times ahead for Cheryl<\/strong> and her trip to LA this week will start setting a lot of balls in motion,’ the source tells the Daily Mirror.<\/p>\n

‘She has a very busy schedule with lots of meetings planned. <\/p>\n

‘Clearly, she hopes to see a lot of Derek<\/strong> too but her priority is very much work and he understands that.’\u00a0 <\/p>\n
