Would be such a shame to lose Nicole Scherzinger... she's just magnificent on the US show. She's taught me that the light within all of us can turn us into stars that can change the world!!!! .... Not.

Good riddance if they kick her out, hopefully the UK won't have to suffer with her... I think Nicole should stick to releasing "debut" singles for her indefinitely postponed US album launch.

meow!! Tell us how you really feel lol.
I hope Nicole doesn't make it to UK panel. She would be laughed out of it with her sickly sweet comments.

Even though Nicole does come across as completely vacuous, I'm sure it's quite hard to keep thinking up with original comments on the performances. Maybe she should take some tips from our Cheryl, I mean who can forget such classic comments as "You're right up my street you are" and "I was thoroughly entertained by that performance".

Maybe they will end up keeping her if Josh wins?

Don't watch the UK version so don't know how Kelly Rowland is, but I would think Nicole would be better viewersmagnet than Kelly

But then again, if they want someone to help increase ratings, is Kelly really the right choice?? I would assume they would try to get someone more highprofiled than Kelly

And if this is about ratings, more important change is the host. Steve is just not at ease. HE is the one that needs to go.....

Judges are judges but they need a star to host the show.

To be honest, I don't buy the Kelly switch story...
I think if Simon kicks her out, he may want to go with his original choice, Mariah Carey...

Lol, you can keep Kelly.

Take that article with a pinch of salt. Although a good idea, it also states cast change decisions get made at the end of the month or something.

We all know by now Cowell doesn't let anyone know if their jobs are safe until close to the auditions.

Thing is, Nicole is adored here in the UK, people loved her stint as a guest judge last year and thought she'd be the no.1 choice to replace Cheryl this year. Kelly started off well, but many viewers have gone off her since the live stages. I also got the impression Nicole isn't majorly liked in the US either.

Kelly an Nicole are as bad as each other. I don't want either of them on the UK show.

Say what you want about Kelly, but she does know what she's talking about. She often comments on the technicalities of someone's singing and seems to have a sharp idea of what's a good performance and how they can improve. To swap her with Nicole will be disastrous for the UK version. Nicole has NO idea what she's talking about, is way too sickly sweet for the UK and I don't think has said one constructive thing since being on the show.

They're quoting Now as their source

Despite that, I don't think neither Kelly or Nicole will be back next season.

i think Kelly could possibly stay with XF with it either bein the UK or US one i cant i can see Nicole gettin demoted to like a sinitta who just appears at judges house then gradually sacked altogether

Ok, well I understand then if Nicole would be better in UK....

But how would Kelly be an improvment from Nicole. That's what I meant that if they would be thinking about ratings, would Kelly really bring them up. On that note I would assume that Nicole would be better in US than Kelly..... Kelly is a nobody in US, right? She ain't no Beyonce

But so did Kara in Idol know what she was talking about, but she just wasn't interesting enough to be liked in US.

I think at this point Simon doesn't give a hoot about if they know what they are talking about. It's all about who will help ratings....

Erm no Simon, dont use ours as a tes run and take our best assests to give them to the yanks! Thats not fair! Nicole can go away, nobody would like her in the UK, id rather we had a british star who knows how to judge, nicole is terrible.

I dont want her, she is cringey on the US show and i dont like the fact we are being pushed aside.

I would rather have Danii back, should never have gone!

I like Kelly as a judge most of the time, without her this show would be boring!

I will give it to Kelly that she does make intelligent comments when it comes to giving constructive feedback.

But then she'll do something like making weird, random noises in someone''s face to show how "street" she is and I just want her to fook off.

Nicole, meanwhile, is a total waste of space with not a single redeeming feature.

If you Brits think Kelly is bad just wait until see Nicole Schrezinger. She is the absolute worst and has cried literally on EVERY live show.

Besides I think Simon is going to try to get in Mariah Carey to join the show.

Good, does that mean that we won't have to put up with Kelly's ridiclous ghetto slang anymore.

Scherzinger isn't going anywhere. People love her, she's beautiful, committed and knows what she's talking about, has her own pop career and is hot.

YES! please do this? I'll miss Kelly but it will be for the best. Both shows should increase in ratings plus Nicole seems more comforatble on our version than the US one.

Plus I won't exactly miss Kelly, she'll be on ITV2 on the American X-Factor this would be a fantastic idea.

I just love how you see the world. Must be nice.

A stranger proposed to her in an X factor taping, that's how perfect she is. Either way I doubt Cowell is going to let her go, Scherzinger was the only reason The Pussycat dolls were so successful. If she does the uk version then I think she should take Tulisa's place.

I don't think Kelly will be back on either show next year, she's said she wants to tour - and whilst she's my favourite judge on X Factor, she's a rather divisive judge. If true, then I hope the panel remains the same, with Dannii joining Gary, Tulisa and Louis.

The American show needs improving. Nicole and LA need to go - it really says something about the panel whenever Paula outshines them both as a mentor and judge.

I doubt there will be a swap, but I can definately seeing Nicole being let go from the US panel.
