Sugababes doubt Cheryl Cole as X Factor judge

Sugababes Keisha Buchanan and Amelle Berrabah say they would have preferred Boy George to Cheryl Cole as an X Factor judge.

The Sugababes aren't convinced Girl Aloud Cheryl Cole is a good choice to become an 'X Factor' judge. I'm not convinced either, but I had the decency to keep my opinions on the matter to myself, you might like to note. But not Sugababe Keisha Buchanan who told The Mirror: "Actually, I would have preferred Boy George. He has got so much more experience, and so many more years behind him. I think he would have been much better as the judge"

Fellow Babe Amelle Berrabah added: "Yeah, Boy George has generations more on her. Not that Cheryl hasn't got any experience, but someone who has been going for as long as he has should have been given a chance".

I'm not sure Boy George was ever considered was he? And I suppose Cole has been through the whole 'win a reality show, then get thrown in a the deep end with high expectations and a presumption you'll fail' thing, so perhaps she is qualified to take over from Sharon Osbourne on the ITV show.
