Sinitta has said that she thinks this year’s X Factor panel lacks experience.
The former pop star revealed her thoughts on the new line-up which consists of Simon Cowell, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora.
Nick, Cheryl and Rita are on this year’s panel.
“I do think the panel lacks experience. I do think that Simon and Nick Grimshaw will have a laugh and have fun but I don’t think (Nick) is a mentor,” she told the Daily Star.
“Rita is obviously amazing, doing extremely well but it’s still, you know, only a few years, it’s not even five years in the game.
“Grimmy, no singing experience at all. Cheryl – is it 10 years she’s been singing now?… I think they could have had someone a bit more seasoned.”
Sinitta is determined to make an appearance.
Sinitta, who usually makes an appearance during the judges’ houses stage of the competition, also said that she would need to be involved in this year’s show.
She said: “If I’m not at judges’ houses, there will be hell to pay. And I want you to print that.”
