Paula sitting next to Simon...
Paula took Cheryl's seat on the panel yesterday by sitting next to Simon. Cheryl was instead sitting next to LA Reid.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7k4mocg3Pk The claims in this report that the show started 2hrs late sounds ridiculous. In the UK, the auditions usually say doors open at 1pm but last year we didn't even start until 3pm. It's probably just the media trying to make it fail before it even begins. |

not being biased but the stage for the UK X Factor is much better than the US one

Auditions did start around 2 hours late, a friend of mine was there.
Paula's legal team delayed things finalising her contract and then each judge had to do press, they couldn't skip that part. |

to be fair there things are bound to go wrong on the first ever taping,
The fact that paula is on the panel is soo interesting because the whole cheryl & simon dynamic is gonna change and I think Cheryl will be quiet shocked and she might get the Dannii treatment! |

Its funny though, the report is completely focused on Simon and Paula being back together, it seems to be the American Medias big interest in the show - the Simon/Paula angle - and Cheryl wasnt even mentioned!
It will be interesting to see how she creates her place in the panel as the Simon's best bud role she revelled in seems to be gone to Paula for this show! ![]()

They'll most likely move a bit anyway but the promotion is gong to focus on Simon & Paula so for press, they'll be tied together. Again, this will hardly be a surprise - Cheryl has obviously been in talks for this for months and the show is being run by the same guy that has run the UK show so I'll bet she has a good idea of how this is going to pan out. The extent to which Simon & Cheryl interact will largely depend on what she says and whether or not it gives him ammunition to wind her up - which is pretty much what he does the whole time on the UK show. I'd expect that to kick in more for the live shows when there's that aspect of competition.

Simon and Paula have always been bezzy buddies, things won't be the same as they have been in the UK version that's for sure.

I hope Simon and Cheryl are separated (sorry, couldn't make out which woman was where on the link the OP posted
) as last year they nauseated me what with him all over her like a rash, their little whisperings in the background ...... bleurgh! (where's a sick smilie when you need one?) But if Cheryl's not sitting next to him I'm surprised. I thought he'd want to be there protecting his little pet.I think Cheryl (naturally IMO after the way he's put her on a pedestal) believes she's Simon's little Princess might do her good to have her nose put out of joint a bit by Paula! Cheryl was Simon's number 1 last year but it would be quite amusing to see her relegated to the 'Dannii' position this year

It makes sense for all the talk to be about Simon and Paula being reunited. That will definitely rake in the viewers, and I think the show would've been in trouble before it even started had Paula changed her mind about doing it - no-one's going to tune in for LA or Cheryl (no offense!), and Simon alone will bring in viewers but probably not as much as Simon with Paula. I have to say I'm looking forward to it as well, I've missed Paula on Idol.

Yes in Series 5 auditions, the judges sat in almost every chair and switched about a lot.
I can remember Louis-Cheryl-Dannii-Simon Louis-Cheryl-Simon-Dannii Dannii-Cheryl-Louis-Simon In series 6, Dannii sat next to simon at some of the auditions and bootcamp, as did Louis. Then on the live shows Dannii and Louis swapped seats a few times. Series 7 is the only time they all occupied same chair. In the first few series, Sharon, Simon and Louis always switched about in the auditions. |

She needs to distance herself away completely from him. Makes her more desriable. Lets the oldies sit together, Cheryl did not hire Will.i.am to be known to hang around and oldie like Simon, she is aiming for the hip and young market. You people are clueless

I know Dannii sat in Cheryl's spot when she first arrived, but the next year was moved down to make way for La Cole ![]() Imagine Cheryl out in the cold now she's on the US panel. Oooh she won't like that. Paula and Simon worked together for 8 years, and people love them together. I think Cheryl could feel a bit lost, 3 big well known personalities in the States, and a long running chemistry between Paula and Simon. I'd be a bit lost I think. |
