Quote:

Big Brother 8 winner Brian Belo has said that he would love to appear on a celebrity version of The X Factor.

The reality TV contestant, 22, explained that the main reason he wants to star on the ITV show was for a chance to meet judge Cheryl Cole.

"I tell you what I'd love to do actually - Celebrity X Factor," he told DS. "Phwoar - Cheryl Cole. That would be cool if they did that.

"I reckon I could bust a few words. I reckon, I could do the odd Barry White song. My voice is quite deep, so I could belt one of them out. It would be worth it to meet Cheryl. Then I could do a duet with Leona [Lewis]! That would be brilliant. I'd definitely do it."

A one-off X Factor: Battle Of The Stars was broadcast in 2006, which featured Chris Moyles, Paul Daniels, Lucy Benjamin, Nikki Sanderson and Michelle Marsh. Simon Cowell reportedly said that he would never bring the show back, allegedly describing the celebrity format as "pointless".

Speaking about the prospect of appearing on other reality programmes, Belo added: "The thing is, I think I've already done the daddy of reality TV shows in Big Brother. To me it's the best one.

"The only other ones I might do, would be one of the dancing ones - Strictly or Dancing On Ice."
