Will Cheryl get the same amount of coverage she got during her last stint?

Cheryl's return has obviously been massively hyped up in the press and with a new single out plus a new album released during xfactor, do you think Cheryl will receive the same amount of coverage and exposure she got when she was at the height of her fame? She's got a new single released in July and will no doubt be performing the second on the xfactor live shows. Depending on her category she may also get the hat trick this year 
I love Cheryl personally and I'm really looking forward to seeing her back on the Xfactor again

Does the X factor get the same coverage that it used to get in 2010? From what I understand it was everywhere then but the public interest has waned, along with the ratings.
I don't see her getting the same coverage simply because I don't think that the show is as relevant as it used to be, but who knows if the ratings recover very well this year?
Hmm yeah they definitely slumped a massive amount since the "glory days" so to speak! But seeing as there appears to be a lot banking on this on this panel being the best one ever since 2010 I'd guess if ratings soar there will be a lot of coverage focused on it. I'd be very surprised if people didn't tune in. If this panel doesn't work then no panel will and the show will probably be axed after this series.
BUT HOPEFULLY that won't be the case!
No it won't, seriously why do people say things like that?
I don't know X Factor's exact ratings, but aren't they around the 8-9million mark? That is still brilliant for a tv show, especially when you consider it is 10 years old and still one of the biggest shows on UK tv, if it stays there or even falls some, its still in a good position.
It's a little wider than that
The overnight average was 8.8m, IIRC. Officials will be about a million higher (I don't think it was quite 10m but not far off).
They're not where they were in 2009-2011 but that was absolute madness of the like we almost certainly will never see again. The 2010 final peaked over 19m! I doubt any TV show will hit that level in the future (aside from World Cup etc).
Given that anything itv tried to replace X Factor with would probably average 4m-5m, then I'd say the current ratings for XF are more than impressive. Plus it brings in the right viewers - itv struggles to get young people watching anything on the channel and they watch X Factor in huge numbers (and advertisers struggle to reach young people through broadcast TV so they're willing to pay big money to get them).
It will be The Cheryl Factor all over again
She wishes, but no.
With people like you around, she'll always get attention
Shame because the show is now no more than another structured reality show with little or mo talent. It needs to stop all being about the judges and unearth genuine, original stars
The very fact that Cheryl is back is enough to make me switch off .Can't stand her she has no talent .
Agreed. No talent, looks and no career. That's why she went back.
