X Factor 2009: Robbie Williams To Replace Dannii Minogue

Ever since this years series of X Factor started, rumours have circulated that it would be Dannii Minogue’s last.

This weekend reports are circulatiing that former Take That singer, Robbie Williams may be about to step into her shoes in 2009.

A source close to Cowell, 49, told The Daily Star: “Robbie is perfect for the job and Simon is confident that he is going to get him to sign.

“Dannii has had a good couple of years on the show, but Simon wants to revamp the panel.

“Robbie’s cheeky attitude and success in the business make him the perfect candidate.”

Danni spent much of Saturday night’s show in tears after being accused by Louis Walsh of stealing JLS’ song. So maybe she won’t be too upset to hear that she is being replaced.

    i would love robbie to take over from danni, he has actually had a “real” carrer in music! unlike miss minogue, who survived off the fame of her sister and “cheesey dance tracks” Please please please get robbie to take over from danni !!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. Trudy says:

    No leave Danni there and replace Louis, I would have thought Robbie was too fragile too do this.

  6. Darren Murphy, singer/songwriter says:

    It does not matter who the judges are for the show, as it is the public who decide on the acts.

    I have met Simon Cowell before and he is a lovely man.
    He will always be the most powerful man in music. Louis Walsh lives in my city near to my home.

    Be sure to see me on X FACTOR 2009 SERIES 7. I Have had Vocal training for over 3years and have vocal coaches and producers to back me up. I have recorded 2 singles and Iam recording album after Christmas 2008.

    I Have also spoken to Simon Cowells record label also, and have being asked to send my music to him.

    If your going to X FACTOR, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE YOUR VOICE TRAINED BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE YOUR VOICE TRAINED THEN THERES A BETTER CHANCE THAT YOU WILL MAKE IT TO THE LIVE SHOWS AND IMPRESS THE JUDGES.

    Regards,

    Darren, Rep.of Ireland

    I say sack Louis and keep Dannii – that’s it need I say more.

  8. Jess Adnerson says:

    Leave Dannii Alone. Shes really good. People are so jealous and so evil, always picking on her. What has she ever done to others? Just cos a prettier young girl comes in, its out with the old. Look what happen to Sharon Osborne!!! Mind you, she had a mouth on her lol

  9. Colum Duffy says:

    Darren Murphy, there is no point in telling people not to apply if there voice is not trained, many people have naterally good voices and i regard myself as one of those people, be sure to look out for me on the x-factor 2009! BTW get robbie on the show what a legand he’s done alot more that Dani!! she’s nice but i think robbie is more suited…..

  10. Peter says:

    Robbie would be good. I’d sack both Danni and Louis to be honest & keep Simon and Cheryl.
