Cheryl 'replaced by Nicole as X Factor US judge' VOTE

Nicole Scherzinger and Cheryl ColePA

Cheryl Cole is reported to have been replaced by Nicole Sherzinger as a judge on the US version of The X Factor.

US gossip site TMZ claims that the main reason for Chezza losing the coveted job was that producers feared viewers would not be able to understand her Geordie accent.
And the site also claims that former Pussycat Doll Nicole is the hot favourite to take over her seat alongside Simon Cowell on the show's judging panel.

There were also concerns that Girls Aloud star Cheryl had a "lack of chemistry" with fellow judge Paula Abdul, the website said.

But The Sun reported that Cole was quitting the programme because she was missing friends and family in Britain.

A source on the show told the paper: "It hasn't worked out. She's homesick and wants to return to the UK. She's had enough. Whether she ends up back on UK X Factor is open to speculation."

Will Cheryl return to the UK version of The X Factor?



Representatives of Cole and the US X Factor's production team were not immediately available for comment.

Cole was announced as a judge on the American edition of the singing talent show earlier this month after heated speculation about whether she could make it on the other side of the Atlantic.

Days after her new role was revealed, Cole admitted she had "stepped out of her comfort zone" to do the show in America but insisted that her strong accent would be no problem for US audiences.

X Factor boss Simon Cowell joked at the time that Cole could mime to someone else's voice to get round any accent problems.

He said: "We could do it like Singing In The Rain - just have someone behind a wall just talking and she's got to lip-sync the whole show," he said.

Poor Chezza, going through the wringer again after that long wait to find out.

What do you reckon? Are you surprised? Has Cheryl been stitched up? Comment below...
