So according to the following link, the first live taping of the judges auditions is 21st May in Charleston, which is less than a week away. Guess we will be finding out the judges soon!

We will probably find out on the day ala Paula Abdul.

Probably, but maybe not in the first season they confirmed Cheryl like two days before the first auditions, so you never know.

I read somewhere that they were going to make the announcement after the IDOL final.

When's the idol final?

today

Slightly excited...

i think probably on the day, they seem to leave it to the last minute, as much as possible before ever announcing things with the x factor.

wonder who it will be

Apparently Kelly Rowland is finalising her deal.

Oh....

Simon tweeted we'll find out who will be on the panel on Monday

It's on all the gossip sites. It is also reported on Digital Spy..

I know, that's why I'm saying it. Simons loyalty tweet, is that a hint to Kelly being a judge?

All sources have said that Kelly is confirmed and will be revealed on Monday. Let's face it, if an announcement is on Monday then both seats have been filled. Personally I think the fourth seat has already been assigned to Hillary. I would have much rather it be Cheryl, but oh well.

I think the other seat is actually Paulina Rubio.

Who is she!?

that's what 99 percent of America will be asking

Paulina Rubio is actually quite well known in the US. She is a Mexican American singer that has had a few hits and won a number of Latin Grammys. She is an Actress and currently on the Latin American version of the Voice. She has had a cross over hit in the early '00's called "Don't say goodbye" she was once romantically to Ricky Martin before he came out and also Enrique Isglasias.

She's known in the Latin Communities in America but the majority of people will not know her any more than they will Cheryl.

I actually think it will be Paulina rather than Cheryl.
