A source said “she’s a huge fan of the show with loads of contacts in the music business, who she’ll be tapping up for chats”, according to metro.co.uk.
Between this news and yesterday’s confirmation that Mel B is set to join the judging panel alongside Cheryl Cole, Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh we are too excited for the X Factor’s return.
