Now The US X Factor Panel is confirmed X Factor UK needs a big name judge. Alesha dixon or Danni won't do. But the thing is can ITV afford it.

[Smithy]

Lily Allen plz

[Callum]

It'll be Katy Perry or Marina

[Jordan.]

Not another American who only sticks around for one series.

[Locke.]

Lily Allen As if

[2k9david2k10]

Beyonceeeee !

[Vanessa]

Katy Perry would be good. Or Danni Minogue.

[Black Dagger]

It'll be Alexandra Burke.

I'd bet on it.

[aj2463]

No Katy or Marina! also they really should think about replacing Louis by now.

[rSlavenx]

They should bring Simon back and dump Louis, and I'd like to see Kelly Rowlands replacement be a high-profile female who will get the viewers really excited about the show.

Somebody like Beyonce would be incredible but it takes away the UK feel to the show.

I mean Tom Jones would be pretty good but the voice have him

I think Katy Perry would be amazing! She's brilliant!

[Marc]

Yeah but I dunno... I like UK mentors you know? I'm not being racist or rude to anybody else but its the X Factor UK isn't it so why not get our own talent to help mentor.

I like Gary as a judge and Tulisa at a push. I think Cheryl would have more standing now that she's become a bigger artist. But the links of Tom Jones or Adele would be outstanding

[Marc]

(I laugh because Adele would never do it she's so big)

[MTVN]

The fat jokes are a bit below the belt Marc

She's in the same status she was when she left X Factor. Only just released her first single since leaving the show, so how do you calculate she's become a "bigger artist" in her absence?

[Smithy]

Cheryl's only really seen as more famous because her famous footballer husband cheated on her and Simon ditched her from XF US, not really something to be proud of

Well from when she started the X Factor in like season 5.

And she's still about as famous and as known as Girls Aloud was. Not much difference IMO.

[rSlavenx]

I don't see the big deal about Lilly Allen, she isn't that good, and I doubt she'd be as fiery as people would hope.

Katy Perry? She was a decent guest judge but can't see her being up to much full time, I agree with keeping it to UK mentors, they've got more passion about the show.

[Marc]

I personally think get rid of Louis and replace him with Shane from Westlife, he can do the groups.

Get Simon back, he knew what he was doing (most of the time)

Tom Jones for the overs

and Cheryl/Adele/Marina/a sugababe or somebody else from girls aloud for the girls.

They should just pre-set the categories with the judges.

It's a good thing we're on a forum then, where we can discuss our own personal opinions

[Smithy]

Girls aloud are reuniting this year anyway, i doubt any of them would have the time

[MTVN]

Sir Tom is a legend but the Voice has shown him to be crap at live shows
