Dannii for X Factor?

According to The People, Dannii Minogue is in talks to join X Factor as one of two new judges replacing Louis Walsh.

There's been some talk that Dannii Minogue might be one of the two new judges set to replace the departed (though not dead) Louis Walsh on The X-Factor. The People claim that the singer is keen to join Simon Cowell and Sharon Osbourne on the show, and is currently negotiating a deal with producers. Minogue is already currently hosting a similar reality show, Australia's Got Talent, in, er, Australia.

One of those mighty tabloid 'sources' says: "Simon thinks she is exactly the kind of person that X Factor needs. Not only is Dannii young and sexy but she also has first-hand knowledge of the music industry. Simon thinks she is just the breath of fresh air they need."

Minogue is a big fan of the show, apparently, and has recently been quoted as saying: "The auditions are my favourite - the more they can't sing, the funnier it is. I know that sounds terrible but we all love a bit of car-crash reality TV".
