Simon Cowell Pushes for Nicole Scherzinger on The X-Factor

 

Nicki Minaj is out. Might Nicole Scherzinger be in?

The hip hop star will not judge The X-Factor, but Simon Cowell himself sounds very close to naming the former Pussycat Doll as the second judge on his upcoming singing competition.

"I want her to do it, but we've got to get the deal done and find someone she has chemistry with," Cowell tells TV Guide. "I absolutely adore her. She was fantastic on the U.K. X Factor and I'm hopeful it will happen."

Cowell says Cheryl Cole is in the mix and also explains his connection to L.A. Reid, who has been confirmed for the panel.

"I met him approximately fifteen years ago when he'd launched Pink for the first time. He put on a show and got every single person in the room to believe this person was a star. The way he presented her with his passion drew me to him and was a big part of why I chose him to be on the show. A "yes" or "no" from L.A. Reid should really mean something to the contestants."

    Who does Cheryl Tweedy Cole think she is saying she will only sign up for the role on condition that Nicole is not on the Judges Panel? Cheryl Cole the ass licker (Simon Cowell)thinks she can do anything once the big man is on her side, I'm sure they are more than friends. Watch out Mezghan Hussainy. How on earth did Cheryl get a Green Card. So untalented but pretty so that's ok. And J-Lo is way too big to compare with Cheryl Cole. Who is she to judge anyone? Last year Nicole took over from Cheryl and did a better job. She is beautiful and classy, something Cheryl is not and Cheryl is obviously intimidated by her. I love Nicole and she made the show refreshing. I personally find it sickly the way Simon and Cheryl almost part the panel into two sections, with Simon's hand at the back of Cheryl's chair and the two of them flirting relentlessly. Simon agrees with anything she says even if the act is rubbish. Sic. Get a room! Trying to mix her name with any celebrity available is
