Singing nuns Xterminated
Cutting remarks ... Elton
By SARA NATHAN
TV Editor
THE Beeb is set to get a further hammering after X Factor chiefs invited Elton John and Beyonce to be guest judges.
Saturday?s ITV1 show was watched by 8.4MILLION ? while 4.8million saw BBC1?s singing nun contest How Do You Solve A Problem Like Maria?
Now X Factor producers hope to keep up the pressure by recruiting top stars to join judges Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne for the live studio stages in the autumn.
An insider said: ?The judges? comments are what make the show, so throwing in a few different voices will really shake things up.
?Elton is a big friend of Sharon?s and is a huge fan of the show.
?He also has a reputation for making cutting remarks. So if he agrees, he?ll be a great addition.?
Elton appeared on the second series of Pop Idol to help coach contestants. Winner Michelle McManus said at the time: ?Doing it in front of Elton was 100 times more nerve-racking than singing for Simon.?
Extra glamour ... Beyonce
X Factor chiefs are also hopeful of getting 24-year-old Beyonce on the panel for some extra glamour. The source said: ?Beyonce is gorgeous and hugely popular with wannabe stars because they respect how hard she?s worked to get where she is.
?We?re told she knows the show, so we?re hopeful she will say yes.?
Series three of X Factor has already had American Idol?s Paula Abdul as a guest.
But she caused mayhem for producers after turning up SIX HOURS late to London auditions. And she annoyed judge Louis Walsh, who said: ?The woman is a nutcase and she?s got a dreadful boob job.?
Simon has already hinted that this year?s show will feature more celebrity appearances.
He said: ?There are some changes to the live show this time. There will be a lot of guests.?
Madonna and Noel Gallagher are also rumoured to have been asked.

Louis cracks me up lol He's spot on about her being a nutcase. That's the main reason I want to see her on the show. If she falls off her chair she'll most likely blame it on jetlag, but most realise her glass ain't no fizzy drink.....burrrrrrrrp :google:
As for Elton John, he drives me up a wall because he's so up himself, but it should be interesting to see what he's like as a judge. Atleast he won't be like Paula and compliment them on their outfits if they can't sing....and unlike her, he HAS talent.

Well, the wife & I watched the first XFactor (well first for us, first of the new run for you lot)...
We hate this kind of show, but this one was cool.
It's hard to watch people who have talent get slated by a small posse of 'stars', but we found it less hardcore than the US shows of this kind.
We loved the "Mother - in - law" who got Simon to say sorry.
(Simon is another Elstree / Borehamwood person BTW).
I think it could be one that we will watch.

It's one of those shows that once you start watching it's hard to stop. The auditions is the best part of the show, but I end up watching it all because I get interested in the ones that make it through and continue on for the voting and all that.6ULDV8 wrote:Well, the wife & I watched the first XFactor (well first for us, first of the new run for you lot)...

I think your wife might enjoy Xtra Factor with Ben Sheppard. He's kind of like Dermot of Big Brother.....easy on the eyes and a good sense of humour
