The Sun has reported that X Factor bosses are hoping to replace Dannii Minogue on the X Factor judging panel this year.

“It’s no secret they like to revamp the show every year. The chatter about Dannii going is deafening,” said a source.

But Dannii will only be replaced if they can find a suitable celebrity to take her place.

“They want someone as good as Cheryl Cole,” said the insider.

So far tipped for the role have been Lily Allen, Charlotte Church and Emma Bunton.
