Cheeky grin: So what really happened in Tanzania to put that big smile on Cheryl Cole's face?
X Factor chiefs are panicking over auditions clashing with England's World Cup match on Wednesday
After spending a whirlwind getaway with Derek Hough in Tanzania, Cheryl Cole jetted back to Britain this morning and went straight to work beaming a megawatt smile.
As she arrived for X Factor’s London auditions in a tangerine dress and houndstooth heels, the 26-year-old couldn’t wipe the cheeky grin off her face, leaving everyone pondering what she exactly got up to with the dancer in Africa.
But as she prepared for auditions with her fellow X Factor judges, the talent show's bosses were desperate to avoid a World Cup clash.
Fan fun: Cheryl Cole poses with fans ahead of the X Factor auditions in London
Realisation struck ITV over the weekend that they filming for Wednesday’s auditions coincides with England’s crucial Group C qualifier.
Kick-off for the match against Slovenia is at 3pm, while audience members need to be seated for the X Factor at 2pm and shooting won’t finish until 5pm.
The predicament has terrified X Factor bosses, who fear their audience will ditch the show in order to watch the match.

They have even gone so far as begging audience members to attend the auditions with a letter saying: ‘The X Factor auditions will continue as planned. Choose Dermot and Simon over our boys in South Africa.’
Letters were sent to 5,000 ticket-holders and added: ‘The judges and contestants are ready. All we wait for now are you, the audience’, The Sun reported.
Show bosses have assured fans that they will keep the audience up to date on scores from the match in breaks between filming.

But will that be enough to lure England fans away from the football and into the X Factor auditions?
At least the news didn't seem to faze Chezza, who was still beaming from her vacation.
Whatever went on between the Girls Aloud star and Hough, it has certainly put the spring back into Cheryl’s step and it was the happiest she'd looked in months, following her split from Ashley Cole.
Derek, 25, is said to have surprised the X Factor judge by whisking her away on the dream vacation and to fuel speculation on the status of their relationship, Hough’s stepfather revealed he’s head over heels for the Girls Aloud star.

But as they arrived at Heathrow Airport, they made sure not to put on any show of affection, leaving question marks surrounding the weekend away.
Also snapped at the Excel exhibition and conference centre in London today, was Dermot O’Leary, alongside Konnie Huq, Louis Walsh and of course Simon Cowell.
The team greeted their fans and X Factor hopefuls before making their way into the building for filming.
Wednesday’s auditions will be the third day of the London try-outs, which started with their first day in the capital today.
