Oh dear God no!  The woman is VILE! 

now that is toooo funny. Ms campbell/ wall /Ms Campbell can anyone tell the difference?

Why can't they employ people who actually have a clue about what they are supposed to be judging?

Well from gagajoyjoy point of view anyones better than cheryl cole, we all hate her here..

What about that Nicky woman that was on the original Pop Idol?? I liked her.

What about nicole scherzinger? she was good when she was on covering for danni

I liked her a lot 

Moonbeams I liked her too. Nicki Chapman... 

that's the one cupcake. nicki chapman. bring nicki back.

Agree moonbeams

X-Factor is played out now.I can't even remember who won last time.Cowall is buggering orrff to America,that's where he can rake in millions.

They are both as uninteresting as each other. So meh.

Naomi Campbell, they have got to be having a laugh.
I agree with Moonbeams and Cupcake, Nikki Chapman would be a good choice.

Cheryl's worse! 

osama bin laden is more liked on here than cherl cole

Yogi, tut, tut, Nikki Chapman is a normal looking woman, not after trout pout or getting rid of fat somewhere else. HOW DARE YOU SUGGEST A NORMAL WOMAN .

I really, really hope that Cole person doesn't end up on the US version. The US versions of these shows are slick, full of glamour, qualified judges, polished presentations....what's Cole got on her CV again?

Oooops, sorry Cologne, I should know better.

Lesson learnt. I feel like Velvet .

As far as i know shes only going to be helping simon cowell pick the finalists at judges house stage.

agree - can't stand naomi Campbell - look at that diamonds episode - peeps will turn off in droves I reckon

had to laugh at this true she gets pulled to shreds on here

Wonder if she will chuck a phone at the contestants she doesn't like.

I don't know anyone who likes her, I can't see her increasing the viewing numbers.

But Cheryl Cole’s American dream seems to have been dealt a fatal blow and she is said to have missed out on the top job.

Instead of a judging role it appears she will be offered the role of Simon Cowell’s helper on the American version of the show, a huge dent to her hopes of launching her career stateside.

Great news

So much for the so-called English Diva gonna make it big in the US. Seems like money dont talk over there as it does here, and it also seems defo not the accent. Also heard SK has been meeting with KP for a role on the panel? If they cant understand Cheryl, how the hell are they gonna understand her?  All speculation of course. Aleedgealy. ( how the hell is this spelled?)

This years X Factor will probably see the end of it as much as Simon Cowell annoys me it wont be the same without him..  Naomi Campbell going to be a judge.. oh dear.

What the hell would Naomi campbell know?

She walks up and down a cat walk (sometimes, for our amusement falling over) wearing designer fashion sporting a face like a smacked arse . END OF

Seems s good choice. I don't think that they need to know much about music. 'Tis more about learning a script and being up for a spot of faux aggro.

Hey we all have good taste.      Unanimous for Nicki Chapman. !!! She is a normal looking woman and yet pretty and attractive.  Cheryl Cole is SOOOOO fake looking, and I just cannae bear the grotty little chav.  No matter how much she cakes on the slap, she is still a Geordie Chavette! 

Oh no, not her?    Even Cheryl cole knows more about music than HER!

Nicki Chapman  

The short-haired pointer knows more about music than her 

Very true Velvet donkey   i think she was Billie Pipers manager.  not sure who elses,,

The X Factor is past it's sell-by date anyway, so who really cares who judges it ?....That said, Naomi Campbell???????????? The Croydon Clouter????????.......No Way, even Sinitta would do a better job..she had a hit once upon a time

Good post Kaytee

Love it!

I thank you Sparkly one

id rather have pete waterman on it than nicky chapman and that is saying something.

like i perviously said, nicole scherzinger or even pixie lott - they were both good when covering for danni.

 I wouldn't mind if Nicole was chosen as a judge.
