X Factor choreographer Brian Friedman is reportedly urging his pal Cheryl Cole to move to America this year.

After she separated from her cheating husband Ashley Cole, Brian wants Cheryl to move Stateside and promises to use any and all of his influence to help launch her TV and music career there.

A source told The Sun: “Brian is trying to persuade her to give it a shot in LA.

“He told her he’s happy to be her chaperone until she settles. High-level people already love her there.”
