I was thinking about all the judges we've had in the past, and we've only ever had two types of opinions on the panel.

Kelly/Cheryl/Danni/Tulisa/Nicole/Gary: Artists opinion
Simon/Louis/Sharon: Manager/Producer opinion

How about bringing on a music critic to sit on the panel. It takes away from the whole 'big name judge' element, but I think past series (UK and USA) have proven that the bigger names don't actually work.

A music critic would basically just be bringing their profession to TV if they joined the show, as they criticise the contestants. Could be entertaining because they'd be bound to be quite harsh with the contestants.

Opinions on this? Any other job titles which would be suited to judge the show aside from managers/producers/artists?
