ROBBIE Williams has given the clearest hint yet that he WILL take up Simon Cowell's offer of a judging spot on The X Factor.
The Robster yesterday said he was tempted by Simon's offer to be a fifth judge next year, adding: "It's a goer."
He confessed he had space in his diary as he wasn't planning a major tour until 2011.
Asked if he would join Simon, Dannii Minogue, Cheryl Cole and Louis Walsh on telly's biggest reality show, he replied: "I'd like to confirm that's a goer."
But the mischievous singer then appeared to backtrack, adding in a GMTV interview: "No, I'm all right for the time being."
Confused? So is The Sun
One thing is for sure though - he will certainly have time to do the show. He won't be touring with new album Reality Killed The Video Star until 2011.
Robbie used the telly chat to gush about The X Factor, which he performed on twice this year.
He said: "X Factor has been the centre of the universe for the last two months.
"Me and the missus (Ayda Field) have been watching it every Saturday and Sunday and voting and getting excited and upset when our favourites go."
And he told how The X Factor wannabes had become obsessed with him. Robbie bumped into Jedward and other show stars while filming Ant and Dec's Christmas special on Wednesday night.
He said: "Miss Frank were on and Lucie from The X Factor and Jedward. One of them wanted me to be their uncle, another their brother and another their dad!"
