Quote:

SIMON Cowell’s greatest hope for the new series of X Factor is six girls who FAILED their first auditions, TV Biz can reveal.

The show boss and fellow judge Louis Walsh recalled the solo wannabes and insisted they retry as a group.

Now Simon is determined to turn the girl band — called Hope — into the UK version of the Pussycat Dolls.

The girls are already being styled and given vocal lessons.

It was Louis’ idea to form the band.

He thinks they can fill the void left by Girls Aloud, who are set to split at the end of the year.

But it is Simon who hopes the girls can win the ITV1 telly hit — which starts on Saturday — as he is in charge of the groups for the new series.

Hope includes Cece, aka Raquel Gracie, the best pal of Big Brother’s Charley Uchea.

She has had a record deal in the US and lives in a mansion near London’s Regent Park.

She grabbed the judges’ attention by doing the SPLITS in her audition.

Other girls in the band are thought to be called Charley and Emily. And the girls are already being described as a “nightmare”.

A source said: “The girls are having explosive rows. But they sound great. They are going to be the love/hate focus of this year’s show.

“The judges’ opinion is split, Simon and Louis love them, Dannii Minogue hates them.”

We can also reveal that five hunky solo boys have been put into a group, called Aspire.

The X Factor wannabes are in the final audition round and will go to the judges’ homes to find out if they have made it through to the live shows next month.
