He was supposed to be on a US Sitcom called Last Man Standing but had to back out. I think they'll announce him soon.

Nick I think is the youngest of the three if I recall and doesn't look like his bros.

[Marc]

Wow this season might suck.

[Roy Mars III]

the worst of the Jonas brothers

Joe would have been good

[BBfanUSA]

Nicki Minaj is cancelling gigs and has been rumored to be a judge.

The show will lose all cred if she's on trust me. May as well cancel the show now.

I have nothing against her, but a lot of people do.

also in other news, thanks to NBC's Stupidity of not promoting the voice's artists or using Muse since they have the official song for the olympics. Home by PP is the most downloaded song and 8 on the top 40 billboard charts.

And he hates the song I hear.

[BBfanUSA]

Nicki Minaj is confirmed to be a judge.

I don't think they have Randy Jackson signed yet. I think they'll resign him but as a mentor. I think Jimmy Iovine could swap places with him or just for kicks they have the two take half the contestants each or something and they have a mini comp between the two.

I 100% think they'll have a 4th Male Judge

Keith Urban is close to signing. There's a good chance that Nick Jonas will be the other judge as for Randy. He'll become a mentor probably

[Roy Mars III]

Nicki Minaj

[Scott]

Nicki

[Black Dagger]

I ****ing despise Nicki Minaj.

I'll stick with X Factor US.

[BBfanUSA]

The judging lineup is Kieth Urban, Randy, Mariah, and Nicki Minaj.

Was supposed to be Enrique but I think they ran out of money.

This is actually pretty good wow

[BBfanUSA]

I just noticed there's only one White guy in that entire commercial that isn't already famous.

[BBfanUSA]

BTW is the show changing channels in the UK? I saw on DS that it'll be on 5* this year.
(Oh God what if they bring back Pop Idol?)

[BBfanUSA]

So Hollywood Week has begun filming and...

Spoiler:

Only Guys are there.... There's heavy speculation that we may have two winners this year. One Male and One Female. The show's executive producer is Nigel Lythgoe and on So You Think You Can Dance which he's a judge and executive producer this year they had two winners one male and one female.

[Germyle]

From ITV2 to 5* -confused-

I actually liked Pop Idol

[Marc]

Interesting 1 male 1 female winner thing

[BBfanUSA]

Yeah, I don't think it's happening. They might be doing this to give the girls more focus because I think Fox wants a female winner.

Also Fox must have a huge say on who's the winner archetype because:

Spoiler:

There's no White Guys With Guitars Left. According to MJ's Blog.

[BBfanUSA]

If anyone wants to see the Top 40 (20 Guys and Gals) here's the list and it has a few repeats

Spoiler:

[BBfanUSA]

Interesting rumor, they must really want a Female Winner

Spoiler:

It seems that they'll have a "Live" Show where 20 will become 10 (5 boys and 5 girls) and the judges will decide who's the top 10, then we'll start deciding.

Which is a bad thing ratings wise because America loves it being in their hands, if not there's no reason to watch (in America's Eyes)

But A Good Thing because we might have a very entertaining final 10.

This probably means no more Saves as well.

[BBfanUSA]

Show is starting January 16th in the states, I will be watching the first ep to see if I can stand Minaj if not that's it for me until the liveshows.

[BBfanUSA]

Season 8 Winner Kris Allen was involved in a scary accident NYD. He's lucky to be alive looking at the car he was driving.

[BBfanUSA]

Nigel Lythgoe (Head Exec. Producer) Confirms that they're thinking of using rankings like X Factor USA.

[Marc]

Kris!
