In the run up to the all new series of Celebrity X factor, it would seem that Irish judge Louis Walsh is trying to act like Simon Cowell in a bid to get our attention.

Walsh has been quoted as saying prospective contestant Gillian McKeith “looks like she was hit by a bus”.

Louis told The Sun: “I hope I don’t get Gillian McKeith. She should be at home watching the TV instead of being on the screen.

“I don’t get this woman. She has a huge ego. I do not want her in my category. If she is, I’m going to say: ‘Go now’.â€?

I can’t wait until Louis comes face to face with Gillian, watch as he stutters his way out of that one!
