Nicole has previously joined Simon Cowell as a guest judge on The X Factor for the UK version of the show in 2010. Steve Jones will act as sole host of THE X FACTOR. ENDS

Hopefully we stop hearing about it now.

Steve Jones as the sole host is one of the biggest jokes I think I have ever heard, and I have no idea why the accent issue hasn't been brought up with him either, surely a Welsh accent will be more difficult for an American to understand than a Geordie? They might as well have picked Dermot anyway, he's much better. But then we would've ended up with Steve no doubt, so actually, I'm glad they have him...

Piss poor line-up for this show in general though.

I've no idea why they've got Paula Abdul or Steve Jones there, she has no opinion and surely his accent will be just as difficult to understand - the presenter needs to be someone the audience is familiar with IMO.

They offered her job back in the hopes she would still be too upset /traumatized to return. If she then has chosen to leave they won't have to pay her, as this becomes her choice.

So, unless she was really hardfaced or needed the 1.5 million they're not obliged to pay her that full amount.

Meh, don't care anymore.

Ithinkiloveyoutoo 06-06-2011 06:22 PM

anyone wonder if this was the plan all along? i mean since WHEN is Nic Scherzy a presenter? maybe chezza was even part of this plot aiming to get her profile up because all she wants to do is make music in the us?

As someone said on OK!TV it wasn't a 'plan' because Cheryl and Simon look like fools.

I understand that Nichol was made a presenter so they could keep her nearby as back up in case anything like this happened.

Notice no-one has been announced so far as Steve Jones' co-presenter ... Telling.

shut up you old bitch, we dont want her

joeysteele 08-06-2011 08:00 AM

It seems Cheryl was offered a hefty increase to return to the UK X Factor, she reportedly turned it down and then was invited back to the USA one but had to reply by a certain date and didn't do so.

Truth is she thought she could get anything she liked from Simon Cowell and now she will turn on him big time because he is now seemingly of no use to her.

and once again I hate to say it but:

Nobody in the USA has ever heard of either celebrity. Has no idea. Never heard of them, do not recognize them from anything. This has zero 'news' factor to anyone in North America.
And they may be perfectly good judges but it is the same as telling you "Did you hear Jane Swanson is replacing Rebecca Greene on AGT this year??".
No.
You have no idea. Even if you see a picture you they don't look familiar.
You MAY vaguely remember some pop group 'Ladyappeal' and kinda recall that hit song if you hear it.
But you don't know anything about who Jane Swanson was.

okay carry on
