THE X FACTOR PANEL IS CONFIRMED: Sharon Osbourne, Nicole Scherzinger, Louis Walsh and Gary Barlow (and changes to the auditions…)


SHARON OSBOURNE IS OFFICIALLY BACK EVERYONE.
Yes, we’ve just got the official X Factor panel confirmed – as we’ve been telling you for ages Sharon Osbourne is returning to the show, alongside last year’s judges Gary Barlow, Louis Walshand Nicole Scherzinger.
Simon Cowell today said: "Three words I never thought I'd say.... Welcome back Sharon!"
And double whoop, Dermot O’Leary is back as the host.
In what the X Factor people promise is the “first of an exciting range of new changes for the 10th series” singers will have to audition TWICE – first in an “intimate audition room” and if they get three of more yeses, then to an arena.
“I couldn’t be happier about coming back for the 10th anniversary of X factor," said Sharon. "I can’t wait to give Gary Barlow a big hug, sit next to the gorgeous Nicole, and of course throw water on dear Louis. Yay!”

Meanwhile Gary said: “It's great to be back for the 10-year anniversary of X Factor and my third year with the show. This year is looking to be our best yet! To have a winner like James Arthurlast year was a big game changer; I really hope that his authenticity and credibility will attract acts of a similar talent this series and I'm very excited about that.”

Reigning champ Nicole Scherzinger was excitable as you’d imagine, saying: “I had so much fun and such a great experience on the show last year – it far exceeded all my expectations! I always give 110% to all I do and I put everything else on hold to focus on X Factor and supporting my Scherzy boys. This year, now that I’ve worked out doing my new music and the show together, I am so excited to get back to the UK, my second home, and get stuck into X Factor 2013!”

And back for a record tenth series, Louis added: “I'm back with a vengeance! Ten years on and I'm just as thrilled to be involved in the best show on TV and even more delighted to be re-united with original judge Sharon Osbourne. Let the fun and games commence!”
Already buttering her up, Dermot says: “We’ve got a great line-up this year, and Mrs O is always a riot and a brilliant mentor, it should be fun.” 
The judges’ auditions will start on 4th June in Glasgow before visiting Birmingham, Manchester, London and Cardiff. This will be followed by the second stage of judges’ arena auditions in July.
WE CANNOT WAIT NOW. IS IT CHRISTMAS ALREADY?
