CHERYL Cole is planning a trip to Las Vegas with Derek Hough. The 27-year-old singer and her rumoured boyfriend are set to visit his mother, Marianne Nelson, in Nevada before they take in some tourist attractions in the US resort in August.

A source told The Sun newspaper: "Cheryl's only been to Vegas once before and didn't get to spend much time there, so she's really looking forward to it.

"She has already made a list of things she wants to do and said she wants to just be a 'tourist' and do all the tacky things people do there.

"She wants to see some shows and have a flutter on the roulette."

Last month it was reported that Hough went to Las Vegas - known as Sin City - with Cole's younger brother Garry Tweedy.

The lads became firm friends as they partied the night away at the Moon nightclub at Palms hotel.

A pal said: "They drove to Vegas through the desert and had a right laugh along the way.

"Derek's really become a brother-like figure to Garry. Cheryl's really happy they are getting on so well."
