Cheryl Cole Works Up A Sweat At Tour Rehearsals

Cheryl Cole has been working up a sweat in the gym in preparation for her first solo arena tour.

The Girls Aloud star, who confirmed a string of dates in support of her current album A Million Lights in June, took to Twitter to post a snap as evidence of her intense tour rehearsal in Los Angeles.

Accompanied with the pic - which showed Chezza posing in a car wearing oversized sunglasses - she tweeted: "Sweaty hair, sweaty face and sore toe but first day of rehearsals is over!! Phew!! EXCITING!!!"

The 29-year old then added: "Lol @ myself in that picture #ohgod!!"

According to The Daily Mail, Cole had spent the day at a dance studio in LA practicing her dance routines ahead of the shows, which kick off in October.

Last month, it was claimed that the Call My Name singer had been warned over splashing out too much money on the gigs, with a source telling The Sun: "Cheryl wants to make her show as amazing as possible and if that means spending a load of cash on it, so be it.

If it were a longer tour, she would make money back from ticket sales. But the ideas shes coming up with at the moment are not going to come cheap.

Cheryl recently hit the headlines after going public with her ne! w man, dancer Tre Holloway, with Heat magazine reporting that the couple have been dating since March 2011.

One person who must be gutted by Cole's new romance is Olympic hero Tom Daley, who told Heat that despite his flirty tweets offering diving lessons to the former X Factor judge, he hasn't "got a hope in hell" of wooing the Geordie.

Daley revealed to the publication: "I haven't got a hope in hell! It'll just be embarrassing [if I ask her out], it's not gonna work out.

"I wish I did have the courage to [ask her out]. I've got her calendar on my wall, so I'm used to seeing her [half-naked] and I see divers [half-naked] every day, although it is Cheryl."
