Gary Barlow to return to X-Factor
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 18 April 2012
Gary Barlow will return on the next series of ‘The X-Factor’, assuming his concert for the Queen’s Jubilee doesn’t go horribly wrong and land him in the Tower.
Barlow is the first member of the ‘X’ cast to be confirmed for 2012. Some changes to the line-up of judges is expected after the talent show’s ratings wobbled a little last year, though whether that will mean a full return to the show for Simon Cowell remains to be seen. Obviously his commitments to ‘X-Factor USA’ forced a reduction of his involvement in the UK version last year.
Confirming the Take That man would return to ‘X UK’, Cowell told reporters: “It’s great to be able to confirm our first judge for this year’s show. Gary has earned his place and I’m excited to be working with him again”.
