It’s so close now we can almost taste it, but as the U.S X Factor draws near, news of the show’s secret plans is getting more and more exciting.
The latest reports being that Simon Cowell has just signed sexy superstar Rihanna to mentor contestants when the show gets down to the ”judges houses” stage.
Good call by Cowell, I say!
Rihanna will be the second singing star to be brought in by Simon to mentor, the first being Mariah Carey.
I’m told Cowell is a major fan of Rihanna and is now pulling out all the stops now to ensure the X Factor is a HUGE success in America; he will stop at nothing until it is!
A source close to Cowell said, ”Simon loves Rihanna and loved having her on the UK show last year – so it’s no surprise he wants her back.”
Rihanna, along with Christina Aguilera, caused quite the stir on the UK version of the popular talent show when their performances received thousands of complaints for being too raunchy… Personally, I loved them!
But Mr. Cowell has admitted that the US show would need to be “a bit more toned down”… Ah, what a shame…
The U.S-version of X Factor will begin airing on Fox on Sept. 21, and I for one can’t to see Simon’s talents at work once again!
