American Idol judge considered for X-Factor panel after Louis Walsh is dropped

Rumours suggest American Idol judge Randy Jackson may join the X-Factor panel, which is expanding to four after Louis Walsh's departure, with other names also touted.

So many rumours as to who the new judges will be on the X-Factor, following the announcement that Louis Walsh had been dropped, and that the judging panel would be expanded to four. Following reports that Dannii Minogue is in talks to take one of the slots, current chatter says that Cowell's fellow judge on American Idol, Randy Jackson, may also be joining the UK pop talent show. Other names being touted as possible judges on the show include Jessica Simpson, Chris Moyles and former Spice Girl Mel B, all of whom sound like awful choices.
