Will she, won’t she? I am getting a little bit fed up with all the rumours about Dannii Minogue’s future on X Factor.

Will she be sacked, who will she be replaced with and now it appears that it has all been in vain as Mr Cowell has decided to keep her after all.

The Mirror reports that Simon has been considering replacing Dannii with candidates such as Lily Allen or Emma Bunton but in the end decided that everyone was talking about Danni last year and if he keeps her he may just win the ratings battle against BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing.

A source close to Cowell told the newspaper: “He had been toying with the idea of new blood for a while, but when he looked back it became increasingly obvious that Dannii was the talking point of the last series.

“Simon is a very canny businessman and this is a purely business decision.

“Although sacking Dannii and getting a new judge could win viewers for the first few shows, keeping Dannii pretty much guarantees fireworks throughout the entire series.””
