X Factor Spends £6m On Judges

The X Factor judges will get paid a staggering £6Million this year - a £2million rise.

Nicole Scherzinger, Gary Barlow and Louis Walsh have signed up again for the 2013 series. And Sharon Osbourne will join them, replacing N-Dubz star Tulisa Contostavlos as the fourth judge.

Bosses splashed the extra dosh on the judging line-up to mark the show’s tenth anniversary - and in a bid to win back the two million viewers who deserted it last year.

Former judge Sharon - who quit the show in 2007 - has signed up for £1.5 million.

The 60-year-old will also get £300,000 to pay for first-class flights from her home in the US and a suite at London’s five-star Dorchester Hotel during the show’s filming.

Gary, 42, gets £1.5million - the same as he was paid last year - while Louis, 60, is now the lowest paid judge on £1million even though he will be the only one to have filmed all ten series.

Former Pussycat Doll Nicole, 34, whose artist James Arthur, 25, won X Factor last year, was the final judge to sign up.

She held out until bosses doubled her pay packet to £1.5million, from last year’s £750,000.

The new deals take the judges’ pay from £3.7million a year to £5.8million, plus expenses likely to run into tens of thousands of pounds. Bosses vowed to use the tenth series to win back the viewers who stopped watching X Factor in 2012.

A source said: “We’re really confident about this panel and we’re putting our money where our mouth is.

“Nicole deserved a pay rise after coming first and second last year. Also she’ll be there for the audition shows this year so we’re getting more bang for our buck.”

Yesterday show boss Simon Cowell, 53, said: “Three words I never thought I’d say - welcome back Sharon.”

As The Sun previously revealed, The X Factor will now feature two sets of auditions.

First, the hopefuls will face the judges in an intimate audition room.

And if they receive three or more yes votes they will go on to perform for the panel again in an arena.

Caroline Flack Engagement Rumours

Caroline Flack has given her fans a conundrum - posting a photo of a RING on her engagement finger.

She uploaded the photo to Instagram with the message: "If you like it."

It's a lyric from the Beyonce song Single Ladies; the next words are "should have put a ring on it."

Caroline is not known to be dating anyone at present.

A follower named aloha_from_char enquired: "Who put a ring on it?"

While a more exciteable fan called holliemayjonesx asked: "ARE YOU ENGAGED??! WHAT??!! WHEN??? WHO? HOW???!!X"

And another fan called kirsten_om wrote: "SINCE WHEN ARE YOU ENGAGED!?"

Talking about pop star Olly Murs, who Caroline co-presents the Xtra Factor with, a fan called abiloveolly joked: "Ah I get it your marrying olly finally!"

Telly star Caroline was teasing her fans during a night out with pop star Rita Ora.

They were hanging out together at Groucho Club before going to the Dorchester Hotel.

Rita wore a black and red printed jacket and white over-the-knee boots.

Caroline, who famously dated One Direction star Harry Styles, had a simple outfit on in a stripy top and black shorts underneath a blue and cream coat.

Noel Gallagher X Factor Judge

X Factor bosses have approached Noel Gallagher for the second time with a “name your price” offer to join the judging panel.

The former Oasis guitarist, 45, has been on Simon Cowell’s wish list for the hit ITV talent show for years.

And in the past fortnight Noel’s management company Ignition received a fresh megabucks offer - asking him to name a price around the £2 million mark.

A source said last night: “Simon is determined to get Noel on board. He sees him as his natural replacement as the real alpha male on the panel.

“He thinks Noel would be ideal, with his music knowledge, straight-talking and rapier wit.”

The last time Simon, 53, made a seven-figure offer to the award-winning rock star he was knocked back.

Fan Simon Cowell is keen to get Noel on the show.

The married dad-of-three was about to launch his critically acclaimed solo project, Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds.

He has just finished touring and is now planning to make “going to the dry-cleaners last a day”.

The source added: “Noel’s daughter Anais is a huge fan of One Direction and X Factor, so she’ll be nagging him to say yes.”

Noel was first approached by Simon in 2011. The rock star told him he wouldn’t like to say lines like, “You know I can only take three into the final, and this is the toughest decision I’ve ever had to make. I left Oasis, but that was nothing compared to this”.

Take That star Gary Barlow will return with Nicole Scherzinger. Sharon Osbourne is also back and bosses have decided on Louis Walsh to return.

X Factor Auditions London Excel

X Factor hopefuls went bananas on 6th of April 2013 – as close to 8,000 queued in a bid to be the next singing star.

Auditionees arrived from 5am to secure a spot in front of producers at London’s ExCeL.

Host Dermot O’Leary said he is as enthusiastic as ever about the show – now in its 10th series – and reckons it is down to the new people he meets each year.

He said: “It’s like the third round of the FA cup or the first game of the season. You’ve got a real sense of excitement.

“You meet people in all walks of life. There’s nothing as queer as folk and you never know who you’re going to meet.”

Frankie Cocozza Left Shop Without Paying For Alcohol

Cops were yesterday probing supermarket CCTV of Frankie Cocozza using a self-service checkout - after the bad boy X Factor reject left with booze that was not paid for.

The singer - booted off the ITV1 show two years ago for taking cocaine - was said by a source to have repeatedly keyed in his card’s PIN code but the transaction never went through.

Store chiefs in Brighton called in police, who yesterday confirmed they were investigating whether the failure to pay for a “small number of items” was “a genuine error or a shoplifting incident”.

The source - who said Cocozza shops there “all the time” - revealed: “The footage shows he has entered his PIN a number of times.

“It is unclear whether he thinks the transaction has finished or whether it is deliberate. He’s walked away and the transaction is incomplete.

“There’s no way of knowing whether it was shoplifting or a genuine error.”

Cocozza, 20, who has appeared on Celebrity Big Brother, was yesterday said by his agent to deny any involvement in the alleged incident.

Lemuel Knights The Voice

An X Factor favourite of Gary Barlow auditioned for The Voice - leaving the coaches fighting over him.

Lemuel Knights blew the Take That singer away when trying out for Cowell’s show in 2011.

Then 16, he performed Jessie J’s Do It Like A Dude and Gary gushed: “I thought Lemuel was unbelievable. At last there is life in Wembley!”

Now the drama student hopes to hit the big time after facing the coaches on the rival BBC1 show.

Lemuel made such an impression that Jessie and Danny O’Donoghue nearly came to blows.

Will.I.Am was forced to break up the spat after the two coaches locked horns over who should have him on their team.

Olly Murs Quits Xtra Factor

Olly Murs has revealed why he quit The Xtra Factor - juggling the role with his music left him feeling “more like a product than a human”.

Olly, runner-up in X Factor’s 2009 series, presented the ITV2 spin-off show with Caroline Flack for two years before bowing out ahead of the next series.

He said: “It’s going to be a shame not to do The Xtra Factor again. I’m gutted because it’s been a huge part of my life for the last two years.

“But I think whoever Caroline decides to pick, whoever the bosses decide to pick to replace me is going to be great. I don’t know if she would do it on her own.

“And we’ll see what happens in the future. I mean, you never know.

“Everything that I’m doing now is for my future and for my family for the rest of my life, so I’m trying to build something for everyone.

“I’ll always be working because I love working but it’s about getting the balance right.

“I remember watching the Big Reunion recently and one of the popstars was saying that you do sometimes feel more of a product than a human being.

“I don’t get four weeks holiday a year - I only get one week or two weeks sometimes - and I don’t get weekends off like everyone else. I have missed that.

“Fundamentally, you need time off to refresh your memory and brain.

“I love it, but it is a lot of pressure.” Late last year, Olly topped the charts with single Troublemaker, featuring Flo Rida, and album Right Place Right Time, and has toured the UK and the US.

He added that he wants his songwriting to speak for itself when it comes to critics who dismiss him as an X Factor flash-in-the-pan.

He said: “The reviews of the tour have been incredible. People who haven’t necessarily been fans of me before have come along and loved it, which is always what you want.

“It’s been great to show different sides to my personality as an artist and as a musician. I love playing the guitar and it’s nice to show people that I’m capable of that.

“There’s always this stigma with X Factor - people think you come off the show and you record in booths and you don’t even hear the songs, you just do them.

“But I do actually write. I’ve had four No1 records so far and I’ve been a part of all four of those songs. I love the process of songwriting.

“We’ve now sold 600,000 copies of Troublemaker in America, which is incredible. I’m really pleased so far with how it’s progressed.

“It’s something that needs to keep growing. I need to get over there more if I want to make it happen.

“Is it something that I want long term? Yeah, maybe. But conquering the UK and Europe is probably more realistic. I think UK-wise I’ve done really, really well and I’ve still got more to achieve.”

With the singer’s tour drawing to a close in Belfast tonight, he is due to travel across Europe in June as Robbie Williams’ support act. And he can’t wait to take on the singer at footie.

He said: “Obviously the Robbie Williams tour is going to be huge. And on the football field it’s Murs vs Williams. We are literally going to have a five-a-side game.

“I’ve told him about it. I’ve sent him pictures of me and the team. He’s ready for it.

“I think secretly he’s getting the guys in shape for it for sure.

“If he got injured before a big show I could always cover for him, it’s not a problem. Joking aside, it’ll be good fun.

“But it will just be good to hang out with Robbie. For me a tour is about not only going out there and doing a great performance.

“It’s also about enjoying it with the people around you.

“I think that’s why Robbie’s got me on tour, not just because he wants me to put on a good show but genuinely because I’m a good guy, I’m a good mate of his and we can have a bit of a laugh.”

Performing to his fans at the London O2 on Saturday, Olly asked the crowd to sing Ant and Dec’s Let’s Get Ready To Rhumble — which unexpectedly hit No1 this week.

And the chart-topper added: “Love it! I’m so delighted.

“I didn’t quite watch them perform it on Saturday Night Take-away so I watched it back and I thought it was absolutely brilliant.

“You know what, fair play to them, it’s a great tune. I love the lads and I love the song. I’ve definitely downloaded it.”

Shazza Shafts Scherza

Sharon Osbourne has already drawn up the battle lines on the new X Factor judging panel - using her gigantic gob to overshadow Nicole Scherzinger.

As the new series - set to air on ITV in August - shapes up to be the most brutal yet, mouthy Shazza dominated the first day of auditions as wannabes were slammed and shamed during a marathon TEN-HOUR audition.

The judge, who is back on the show after quitting in 2007, eclipsed the returning ex-Pussycat Doll - despite Nicole coaching last series’ winner James Arthur.

Less than half of the 50 hopefuls were invited back to the next round as dreams were dashed during trials at Glasgow’s Hilton hotel on Tuesday.

TV Biz can reveal one of those hoping for a break was Scottish contestant Jade Richards, who returned for a THIRD attempt at success.

Jade made it to the judges’ houses in 2011, jetting to Miami with Kelly Rowland, before getting the boot and trying again last year.

This time, she faced an extra-tough panel, with judges under orders from Simon Cowell to improve the quality of singers after last year’s series lost three million viewers. And the panel aren’t hiding their feelings. At one point Sharon cackled so hard at a rubbish singer she FELL OFF her chair.

The cosmetic surgery fan also had the rest of the panel - Louis Walsh and Gary Barlow - in stitches after a tree surgeon came on to audition and she remarked: “Ooh, I love a good surgeon!”

A source said: “Sharon certainly made the most of her comeback. She sat in the middle of the panel and had something flamboyant to say about every act.”

The antics left Nicole fighting to get a word in, while Gary and Louis “chuckled”. The source added: “Nicole enjoyed being the wacky one who would say silly things and get loads of attention last year. But in Glasgow she struggled to get into the limelight as Sharon was always hogging it.

“Nicole likes Sharon but has got to raise her game or she’ll end up on the cutting room floor.”

The four head to Birmingham on Monday for the second round of auditions, held only in front of the judges.

Those successful will be invited back to a second audition with an audience.

Deal Or No Deal Banker Leaves Hotel With X Factors Marina Berry

TV’s Deal Or No Deal banker sparked a riddle last night - after leaving a hotel with a former X Factor beauty.

Married dad Glenn Hugill, 43, and Marina Berry, 28, also left their cars by a cottage - amid claims they share it during filming.

On Tuesday morning they were both seen with luggage outside a Bristol hotel. They put it in their separate motors and drove to the show’s nearby studios, where she is a production assistant.

They had arrived at the hotel the night before.

On Tuesday and Wednesday night The Sun saw their vehicles outside a cosy cottage in Flax Bourton, Somerset. A source on the Channel 4 quiz claimed the millionaire dad of two and Marina - on X Factor in 2009 with girl group Miss Fitz - were often there.

Saucy tweets have deepened the mystery.

OfficialBanker, verified by Twitter as the show’s authentic account, wrote last year: “Happy Valentine’s Day honey x.” User Marina_Berry, an account with Marina’s photos and a link to an online profile of her, replied: “Happy Valentines to you too, sexy beast.”

And in April she tweeted: “I love you, you beast. You’re like a wolf but sexier and with a deeper growl X.”

Glenn - who lives with wife Emma, 36, in Kingston, Surrey - found fame in the 1990s as Corrie cop Alan McKenna, boyfriend of hairdresser Fiona, played by Angela Griffin.

The £315 Bristol hotel suite was booked in his name - and staff confirmed a man had checked in.

Yet engaged Marina insisted she made the booking, stayed alone and Glenn arrived only the next day. She added: “I absolutely deny we’re anything but good friends.”

Glenn scotched suggestions of a romance as “absurd”. He said he paid the hotel bill “as a favour to a friend and carried some things for her, then we drove to the studio”.

While his fellow X Factor stars James Arthur, Ella Henderson, Union J and Jahmene Douglas have all snared record deals, Chris – who was slated for being “too cheesy” – has not.

I’ll Get Naked In A Bath Of Beans If We Get To No1

UNION J have got their eyes firmly on the prize.

GEORGE SHELLEY, JOSH CUTHBERT, JAYMI HENSLEY and JJ HAMBLETT - who release their debut single Carry You on June 2 - are keeping their fingers crossed for a No1.

And George vowed to LIA NICHOLLS that he’ll get naked in a bath of beans if it does.

Your first single is out soon, have you told your family and friends to buy multiple copies?

George: Not sure about multiple but they will all be buying it.

What will you do to celebrate if you get to No1?

George: We’ll have a massive party - and I’ve said I’ll sit in a bath of beans.

Will you really do that?

George: Yes definitely, be pictured and everything, you have my word.

You’ve recently moved in with each other in new pads in London - how’s it all going?

George: Yeah, amazing. Me and Josh are living together and so are JJ and Jaymi, who have turned into husband and wife.

They’re like my nan and grandad. When we get in the car in the morning, they’re like, “Have you got this, have you got that?”

Who is most likely to throw a hissy fit?

George: It depends on the situation. If it’s over food, definitely Jaymi. He rages over food.

Did you have much say about what was going to be your first single?

George: Yes. We had the choice of a few songs but it was the one we thought was the most catchy. It was the one we were all walking round singing.

Have you been doing your own food shopping or does it get done for you?

George: No, we do it. We go to the supermarket, we like a trip to the supermarket.

Who’s your ideal man or woman?

JJ: EVA LONGORIA would be nice.

What are you most looking forward to doing this year?

Xcited ... the lads are looking forward to playing festivals this summer Fame Flynet

JJ: We can’t wait to play the festivals.

Who are you most looking forward to meeting or hanging out with?

JJ: It will be good to catch up with JESSIE J, THE WANTED and LAWSON.

Did you know NATHAN SYKES (The Wanted) had an operation to save his voice last week?

JJ: Yes we heard and we wish him a speedy recovery. No singer wants to go through what he’s going through. It must be tough.

When was the last time you cried?

Jaymi: On Saturday, to Britain’s Got Talent. The shadow dancers ATTRACTION. I had a little tear.

You mean, you didn’t cry watching Margaret Thatcher’s funeral then?

Jaymi: No, I didn’t watch it. People were being really awful about her on Twitter and I didn’t want to get involved.

I just think she’s someone’s mum.

Did you have an opinion on her?

Jaymi: None either way. I don’t know anything about politics.

What’s the strangest thing you’ve been sent by a fan?

Jaymi: Not the strangest, but the coolest was from a girl in South Africa. She sent me a load of South African chocolate and sweets. I’d say her name but it was really funky so I wouldn’t want to get it wrong.

What’s your signature dish?

Jaymi: Domino’s pizza. If pushed, sausage and mash — Tesco’s Finest.

But forget cooking, JJ hasn’t found the iron, the hoover or the washing machine yet. He doesn’t know how to use any of them.

And when he goes to the toilet and the loo roll runs out, rather than replacing it, he’ll just go to a different toilet. Very lazy JJ.

Describe your ideal night.

Jaymi: I love staying in so it’s getting some good food and watching a film chilling with my boyfriend or having friends round. We’ve got a nice flat to have friends round.

Who’s on your playlist at the moment?

Josh: CHARLIE BROWN, CHRIS BROWN, RUDIMENTAL.

Who’s the most famous person in your phone book?

Josh: Probably JOE HART. We text a fair bit as we had a good night out at a casino in Manchester. It was a laugh, he’s a really nice guy.

If you hadn’t made it on The X Factor, would you have auditioned for The Voice?

Josh: I don’t know, maybe... ermmmm... it’s only been around for a little while so probably not.

What’s the best piece of advice you’ve been given recently?

Josh: To remain positive and optimistic as that’s the response you’re likely to get back.

Can you tell me a joke, please?

Josh: Where would you find a dog with no legs? Where you left it.

Drug-shame Tulisa puts Louboutin to her ex Danny Simpson

Drug-shame star Tulisa split from footballer Danny Simpson in a row over £1,000 Louboutin shoes, The Sun can reveal.

She also mocked the Newcastle United star as “an a**hole” who was no match for her celebrity or intellect.

The former X Factor judge, 24, admitted that she had separated from Simpson during a meeting with our undercover reporters at London’s upmarket Met Bar.

She said during one row she had shoved a pair of the designer shoes he had bought her into a Tesco bag. She claimed he was furious and added: “He said, ‘What bird does that?’”

Tulisa said Simpson claimed that other girls he gave Louboutins showed their appreciation by performing a sex act.

She went on: “He was a fan. He was obsessed for six years. He had a massive crush on me. Finally he found somebody who knew me. He wasn’t a celebrity until he met me. He was a famous footballer but not a celebrity. As soon as he got with me, he became a celebrity footballer.”

Describing the 26-year-old as an “a**hole”, she added: “He’s not as intelligent as me.

“And he’s very shallow and I’m very real.”

She then recalled how in another row she told him: “Eat some Snickers - get some f***ing nuts.” The pair had matching tattoos inked in February, but the N-Dubz singer said: “His problem is that the way that he used to have it with other birds, he just doesn’t have any of that with me.

“He’s used to girls that run round after and put it on for him - even sexually chase him. I’m not that woman.”

In a foul-mouthed tirade, Tulisa - who launched a clothing range for young fans and has her own brand of perfume called Female Boss, after her nickname - described how she had laid down the law to previous boyfriends.

She said she told them: “Do you know who you’ve got involved with? I’m the f***ing female boss, I have it tattooed on my arm and I had it there from the f***ing day you met me. I don’t need you!”

Cocky Tulisa dreams of being a Hollywood actress and said if she appeared in a film it would be “front page in every newspaper. Every person in the UK would want to watch it and see why the hell has she left the X Factor to do what. I’m big in the UK because I’m a rebel.”

Yesterday Tulisa - exposed on Sunday by The Sun as a drug deal fixer - remained holed up in the £6million gated Hertfordshire mansion she rents for around £90,000 a year.

Police plan to quiz her after she set up a deal in which a pal sold us £800 of cocaine. She denied taking the drug but admitted regularly smoking cannabis.

Clothing retailer Bank Fashion, which sells her TFB range, said it is now “reviewing its options”.

Harry Styles Ex Girlfriend Katie Smith On The Voice

A Former squeeze of the One Direction swordsman Harry Styles is hoping to follow in his footsteps as a performer on The Voice.

Katie Smith hooked up with the floppy-haired lothario when the pair were battling for fame in the early stages of the X Factor in 2010.

They got together at the boot camp stage of the ITV talent show and saw each other for a couple of weeks.

But Katie failed to make it to the live finals - while Harry was put with four other lads to form One Direction.

A source said: “Katie can claim to have had Harry’s eye before he was famous.
