The Girls Aloud star has had a busy year after judging UK TV talent show 'The X Factor' and launching a successful solo career and is keen to take some time off after getting Christmas out of the way.
Cheryl - who is married to England soccer player Ashley Cole – said: "I just want some time off! I want time with my family and time with my dogs, just a rest I suppose. Somewhere sunny!"
In 2010, Cheryl is planning to try and launch her solo pop career in the US.
The 26-year-old singer met with record label executives in Los Angeles earlier this year and intends to top the charts Stateside with the help of fellow 'X Factor' judge Simon Cowell.
A source said: "Simon is one of the biggest star-makers of his generation, and if you've got him in your corner, you are in very good standing."
Rihanna also said she'd be happy for Cheryl to support her on tour in America.
The 'Russian Roulette' singer said: "Cheryl is cute and incredible. I think I could help break her in the US. She'd wow them – I'd love to have her on tour in America."
