Just when you thought the X Factor saga couldn’t get any more exciting, there comes news that everyone’s favourite, erm - what is it she does again? - Victoria Beckham is set to take over from disgruntled judge Louis Walsh in time for the next series.

According to the Daily Star, the show’s bosses – better known as high-trousered sarcasm merchant Simon Cowell and ex-Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller – aim to lure her with a £1 million offer. “It would be a dream come true for Victoria,” a source told the newspaper. “She’s still keen to forge a telly career and shows don’t come much bigger than this.”

Mr Cowell has made no secret of the fact he would like to work with Victoria. “She is very witty and can poke fun at herself,” he says. “I think The X Factor is the best opportunity for the public to see the real side of her. She’s interesting and good TV.” Indeed – but we’re sure Posh is missing a trick here. We think she’d go down a treat in the jungle, hanging out with the has-beens and creepy-crawlies on the next series of I’m A Celebrity. Imagine! Mrs Goldenballs eating kangaroo’s testicles, anyone?

beat me to it! lol

Id much rather see her than Louis 'Hobbit' Walsh!

BigSister · 09-12-2005, 05:36 PM

I think I rather see Louis and thats saying something!

Clnbnt06 · 09-12-2005, 05:50 PM

The real problem is... What the hell does she know about much?

She was in the Spice Girls and never sung and she released a few singles which all flopped. Is that good enough for The X Factor? Simon and Sharon will know what they're talking about as they have managed acts for years. Compared to Victoria, Louis is an amazing judge.

BigSister · 09-12-2005, 05:53 PM

That what I thought too Cull I thought Pete Waterman would be in with a chance as they wanted him first then his son died so they chose Louis instead

Jay · 09-12-2005, 05:56 PM

i would have liked to seen pete waterman or neil fox replace louis

Clnbnt06 · 09-12-2005, 06:13 PM

Yeah the best way to go would be with someone we already know will be good as a judge.

ThaGazBoi · 09-12-2005, 06:29 PM

I quite like Victoria Beckham, I like a couple of her songs

sol · 09-12-2005, 06:31 PM

has Louis leffttttttttttttttttttttt!!!!!!!!!

WHY??

noooooooooooo Victoria Beckham - wot the hell does she know about judging music?

Are you sure this is true? If it is that is bad

BigSister · 09-12-2005, 06:32 PM

Yeah Louis said he would come back to support Shayne but not return next year

sol · 09-12-2005, 06:35 PM

o rite, next series, i thought she was replacing Louis starting now

still I think that is a bad decision, I seriously cant stand Victoria Beckham

bad decision in my opinion X Factor

Ruth · 09-12-2005, 06:52 PM

Honestly - what does Victoria Beckham know about music?

Dan_ · 09-12-2005, 07:14 PM

I might have to stop watching, seriously bad choice if it's true. There are plenty of people who would do a better judging, how about that bloke who was Take That's manager? Or another manager or someone who's really clued up on music.

sol · 09-12-2005, 07:15 PM

I didnt say she doesnt know anything about music i said she doesnt know anything "judging" music - just because shes been in a successful girl group doesnt mean she can judge music. Atleast Louis, Sharon and Simon have experience in managing in the music industry, Victoria Beckham doesnt.

totally agree fernzy, yer i saw Take-thats manager - he came across quite well, i saw him in an interview on the tv with Pete Waterman recently, atleast he would have more experience than Victoria Beckham

Legend · 09-12-2005, 08:37 PM

Oh if it gets Louis Walsh of my screens then it's a BLOOODY GREAT IDEA! :P

I like Victoria and she must know stuff about music otherwise she wouldn't be doing it (if this is true) so if this is true then IMO it's a great decision.

But then again i'm biast because i can't bare the sight of Louis Pathetic Walsh!

People have thier opinons, But i cannot stand louis walsh. Victoria IMHO would be a far better judge, She can sing obvisoly she was in the spice girls for 5 years and had an OKAY solo career. People think of her as 'David Beckhams wife' but shes more then that, And if she takes on the role, then maybe we can see a diffrent side to her.

Legend · 10-12-2005, 12:39 AM

Totally agree with ya Gazza! That's probs what i was trying to say above ^^ but all monged up lol.

ThaGazBoi · 10-12-2005, 02:10 AM

Glad someone does!! Lmao

Her singing voice is below average and unlike most judges on these type of show's she has never been a manager, record company boss, producer or vocal coach. Louis Walsh might be a moron on the show but he has been a successful manager for years and was the most successful judge at the end of it last year because G4 have sold so many albums, he may be the most successful again because Shayne's the most marketable of the finalists and will proably last longer than a lot of the other 12 finalists, I don't like some of the decisions he has made but he would be a better judge than VB.

If they are going to replace Louis then it should be with someone who's been a successful manager or producer imo, not some washed up girl group member.

jrc · 10-12-2005, 07:15 PM

Totally agree with you Fernzy. When I saw this thread, the first thought that popped into my head was "What a stupid idea!" I do want Louis out, but it should be for someone with musical and managerial experience, not some washed up, popstar, footballer's wife.

Siouxsie · 10-12-2005, 10:11 PM

Im not bothered in the least give her a chance

Since then, he's confirmed that he will be back next year - as long as both Simon & Sharon return, too.

This story is over a year old, by the way. Simon supposedly wanted her on board for series two. I don't think that it will happen, and Louis has already poured cold water on the speculation (feeble pun very much intended).
