Cheryl Cole Is Out Of The X Factor Again

Cheryl Cole has had quite the interesting couple of weeks because first of all she was hired as a judge on the X-Factor USA, then she was fired and replaced by Nicole Scherzinger, then she was back as a judge but now she is officially out

When I found out that Cheryl was back on I thought all of this was a publicity stunt but now Fox, Fremantle and SYCO all released a joint statement to TVLine confirming that Cheryl is not going to be apart of the show, here is what they say:

“Nicole Scherzinger will be replacing Cheryl Cole on the judging panel of The X Factor. Nicole will join Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Paula Abdul on their search across America to find the next global superstar or group to win the life-changing $5 million dollar recording deal. Nicole has previously joined Simon Cowell as a guest judge on The X Factor for the UK version of the show in 2010. Steve Jones will act as sole host of The X Factor.”

I actually feel really bad for Cheryl but I’m hoping that she does an exclusive interview and says exactly what went on. The real winner in all of this is Steve Jones, he went from being a co-host to now hosting the whole show.

Cheryl Cole Replaced By Nicole Scherzinger On X-Factor

Cheryl Cole‘s attempt at making it big in the USA by being a judge on the X-Factor hasn’t lasted long at all because she is now no longer apart of the show and has been replaced by former Pussycat Doll, Nicole Scherzinger.

Nicole was originally just supposed to be a co-host on the talent show along with British newcomer Steve Jones, but now that Cheryl is off the judging panel she has been bumped up as a judge.

There is several reports as to why Cheryl is no longer a judge for the show but nothing has been confirmed yet. First of all TMZ are reporting that the producers for the show decided to drop Cheryl as a judge because her Geordie accent would be too difficult for American viewers to understand.

TMZ also report that chemistry between Cheryl and fellow judges Paula Abdul and L.A. Reid was pretty dire. On top of that they are saying producers want the British sweetheart to return to the UK version of The X-Factor but she is so pissed off she might ditch the show completely.

The Sun however are reporting that the reason Cheryl is no longer a judge is simply because she was homesick. A source says “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.”

I guess time will tell, either Simon Cowell or Cheryl herself will end up talking about this within the coming weeks.

Paula Abdul Officially Joins ‘X Factor’ (Photos)

Well it’s now official that Paula Abdul will be joining the judging panel for US version of The X Factor, she will be joining Simon Cowell, L.A. Reid and Cheryl Cole.

It’s been rumored for ages that Paula and Cheryl would be the female judges on the panel and now it’s a definite, this means that we will finally see Simon and Paula reunited and of course seeing what whacked up comments she comes out with on a weekly basis.

The first round of auditions have already begun in Los Angeles before the show premieres in September on Fox. As well as getting to feast our eyes on Cheryl each week we will also get a bit of Nicole Scherzinger because she has been hired as the host for the competition.

What do you think of the judging panel? I myself prefer the panel over on The Voice. Anyway, here is photos of the judges arriving for the first auditions.

Forbes Top 10 Earning Men In Prime Time

Forbes have release their annual list of the 10 top-earning men in Prime-Time television and as predicted they make way more money than their female counterparts do. Nearly double the $162 million combined total the women made during the same period of June 2009-June 2010.


10. Chris Meloni, Estimated earnings: $9.5 million

Though ratings for Law & Order: Special Victims Unit took a hit when it was bumped up an hour to make room for Jay Leno’s short-lived 10 p.m. talk show last season, the series remains the franchise’s strongest effort. Now that the Law & Order mother ship has concluded its lengthy run, the New York-based actor and his co-star, Mariska Hargitay, become the unofficial faces of the larger franchise.


9. Hugh Laurie, Estimated earnings: $10 million

As cranky Dr. House in Fox’s long-running medical drama, Laurie continues to lure ratings and fans. The only place he seems to fall short: the Emmys, where the 51-year-old Brit is a frequent nominee but never a winner. Over on the big screen, he has joined the long-gestating indie Oranges opposite Leighton Meester and Catherine Keener.


8. Patrick Dempsey, Estimated earnings: $11 million

As the best-paid man on set, Dempsey continues to send viewers swooning as Dr. McDreamy on ABC’s long-running medical drama Grey’s Anatomy. When he isn’t donning scrubs at Seattle Grace, the face of Avon can be found revving up his race cars or beefing up his film résumé. Up next, a role in the latest installment of Michael Bay’s Transformers franchise.


7. Laurence Fishburne, Estimated earnings: $12 million

Though ratings have taken a tumble since he stepped in to replace William Petersen, Fishburne has something else to boast about: one of the richest TV deals around. Over on the big screen, the Academy Award nominated actor recently turned up in the Robert Rodriguez alien flick Predators. Up next: He’ll appear in Steve Soderbergh’s star-studded sci-fi thriller Contagion, shooting this fall. Off screen, it’s Fishburne’s daughter, a budding adult film star, who has gained the bulk of the headlines.


6. Kiefer Sutherland, Estimated earnings: $20 million

After eight highly rated seasons, Sutherland’s star vehicle ended its run in May. Though details are sparse, a movie version of the long-running 24 has been announced. What the show’s executive producer Howard Gordon has made public: his plan for Sutherland to give big-screen action stars Bruce Willis (Die Hard) and Harrison Ford (The Fugitive) a run for their money. In the meantime, Sutherland–or rather, Sutherland’s voice–graced the silver screen this past spring as raspy alpha dog Bosco in the animated flick Marmaduke.


5. Charlie Sheen, Estimated earnings: $30 million

For its fifth consecutive year, Sheen’s long-running CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men rounded out the television season as the No. 1 comedy in total viewers. After publicly flirting with the idea of departing the hit show, he negotiated the genre’s richest contract, and is back to donning bowling shirts as eternal bachelor Charlie Harper. Off screen, domestic troubles with his real-estate-investor wife, Brooke Mueller, have kept Sheen in the courtroom and the tabloids.


4. Steve Carell, Estimated earnings: $34 million

As The Office’s awkwardly endearing boss Michael Scott, Carell lures viewers and critical affection for a network in need of both. He generated headlines this spring when he announced this coming season would be his last. Guessing who will replace him has become a favorite parlor game among TV fans in recent months. Over on the big screen, the former Daily Show correspondent starred opposite Paul Rudd in Dinner for Schmucks and lent his voice to the part of protagonist Gru in the animated flick Despicable Me.


3. Donald Trump, Estimated earnings: $50 million

The Apprentice once again helped keep The Donald relevant while raking in extra cash for the billionaire. Trump, who landed at No. 153 on the Forbes 400 with a net worth of $2.4 billion, continues to expand his brand, promoting his golf courses through the Golf Channel and producing beauty pageants. The real estate mogul also reaps millions from his books and speaking engagements. The Trump stamp can be found on products ranging from alcohol to neckties and high-end mattresses.


2. Ryan Seacrest, Estimated earnings: $51 million

He hosts American Idol, the American Top 40 radio countdown, On Air with Ryan Seacrest, E! News and ABC’s New Year’s Eve special. In addition to lucrative deals with Clear Channel Radio ($15 million a year), Idol parent CKX ($15 million) and the Comcast Entertainment Group ($15 million), Seacrest also develops and produces TV shows, including E’s Keeping up with the Kardashians and ABC’s Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution. The Atlanta native also shills for Procter & Gamble, Coca-Cola and Microsoft’s Bing, and is in the initial stages of launching a new cable network with talent agency CAA and entertainment giant AEG.


1. Simon Cowell, Estimated earnings: $80 million

Cowell made much of his bounty from American Idol, the top-rated series he chose to walk away from this past spring. (Come January, new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez will attempt to fill his shoes.) Also padding his wallet: fees from the Got Talent and X Factor franchises, along with profits from his lucrative record label. In 2011 the Brit who TV fans love to loathe will add another potential cash machine, when his latest singing competition show, The X Factor (finally) crosses the pond.

It definitely pays to be a man in Hollywood.

Kara DioGuardi Is Off American Idol

American Idol has lost another judge, this time it’s Kara DioGuardi who is leaving the show after being on the judging panel for two seasons.

Kara is now the third judge to leave the show this year, Simon Cowell and Ellen DeGeneres also both quit Idol. She released a statement saying…

“I felt like I won the lottery when I joined ‘American Idol’ two years ago, but I feel like now is the best time to leave ‘Idol, I am very proud to have been associated with ‘American Idol’ – it has truly been an amazing experience … I look forward to my next challenge, and want to thank everyone who has supported me. All the best to everyone on Season 10!”

It’s rumored that Jennifer Lopez will join Randy Jackson behind the judges table and producers will go back to having just three judges. I wish they would just cancel this show, it hasn’t been good for the past 5 seasons.

Celebrities Who Are Good And Bad In Bed

When you think of celebrities you probably think of them like they have the most amazing bodies and are generally all around perfect human beings, which would include being great in the sack. Well not all of them are good in bed, here is some celebrities who have had a kiss and tell done on them. Some of them are good but some of them are bad:

Kim Mathers on Eminem:

“He’s not very well endowed…. If you’re going to have sex with Marshall, make sure you have a little blue pill, because otherwise it does not work.”

A “Pal” on John Mayer:

“John is good in bed. Not just good, but sensational. Every girl I know who has slept with John says it was the best sex of their life. I’m not sure what exactly he does in bed, but after girls sleep with him, they’re ruined. They get totally hung up on him and want more! Whatever John’s secret is, he should market it. He could retire from the music industry.”

Adam Levine denies saying about Maria Sharapova:

“I can’t tell you how disappointed I was. I really thought, like a lot of guys, that she’d be the loud screaming type. It was so disillusioning that I went on Paxil for a month afterwards.”

Candice Houlihan on Alex Rodriguez:

“If it’s true Madonna has sampled Alex’s charms, then she’ll know what I mean when I say she’s a lucky lady. And if not then I can tell her he is the most amazing lover she’ll ever have and she should give it a whirl. I know she’s very sexually experienced but I bet even she hasn’t experienced anything like Alex before. What he can do to satisfy a woman is amazing—he’s very gifted in that department. The two nights I shared with him were magical and given half the chance I would do it again in a heartbeat—even though I felt bad when I found out about his wife. In that way he’s just like any other guy.”

Angelique Jerome on Colin Farrell:

“He comes across as a tiger on screen, but behind closed doors he’s as wild as Mickey Mouse. Maybe he has lots of women because he’s not that good in bed. Maybe they don’t want to stay.”

Nick Carter on Paris Hilton:

“She was a drunken prude who as far as I can see did not really like sex. She relied on drugs and drink to give her confidence in the bedroom and was more often than not too wasted to even perform. I lost count of the nights I had to pick her off the floor and drag her to bed passed out.”

Joe Francis on Paris Hilton:

“Paris is the best … Paris is amazing in bed … better than anyone.”

Krista Ayne on Jared Leto:

“Jared isn’t bad in bed. I’d give him a 7 on a scale from 1 to 10.”

Kristen Cavallari on Brody Jenner:

“It was very…vanilla.”

Sophie Monk on herself:

“I think I am a dud honestly.”

An exotic dancer on 50 Cent:

“50 is definitely not packing. He’s barely 6 inches … I was thinking, what does he expect to do with that little thing? We were supposed to [EXPLETIVE], but after I saw what he was working with, I just gave him some [EXPLETIVE] and called it a night. On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d give him a 3 … He probably deserves lower than that – but I gave him extra points because he was respectful.”

A former lover on Robert Pattinson:

“We just had this chemistry between us that made our kisses amazing. I felt electricity go between us! I’m really passionate, as is he. That’s why, no matter how much we fought, it was always amazing in bed! We’d glance at each other throughout the night because it made it more exciting when we got home. The tension was so strong, we couldn’t control ourselves. It was amazing!”

Sinitta on Simon Cowell:

“It’s true, he’s rich and good [in bed].”

Georgina Baillie on Russell Brand:

“A disappointment.”

Byron Raphael on Elvis:

“He didn’t know how to screw.”

Ellen DeGeneres Leaves American Idol, Jennifer Lopez Takes Over

ellen-degeneres

Ellen DeGeneres has not had a very good time with American Idol, and has been pretty vocal about it to FOX execs for the past few months.

With Simon Cowell leaving the show, FOX was not pleased about the prospect of losing Ellen too, and told her that she would need to stay on until they found a replacement. FOX was in talks with Jessica Simpson briefly, but has locked down Jennifer Lopez to replace DeGeneres.

Nobody knows yet who will replace Simon Cowell, and everyone involved in the show really wants Elton John. It’s rumored that Sir Elton is asking for too much money and has touring commitments that can’t be changed, however.

Here is FOX’s official statement:

Ellen DeGeneres has decided to bow out from her role as a judge on AMERICAN IDOL next season. DeGeneres served as a judge during the ninth season of IDOL, the No. 1 hit series on television.

“A couple months ago, I let FOX and the AMERICAN IDOL producers know that this didn’t feel like the right fit for me,” said DeGeneres. “I told them I wouldn’t leave them in a bind and that I would hold off on doing anything until they were able to figure out where they wanted to take the panel next. It was a difficult decision to make, but my work schedule became more than I bargained for. I also realized this season that while I love discovering, supporting and nurturing young talent, it was hard for me to judge people and sometimes hurt their feelings. I loved the experience working on IDOL and I am very grateful for the year I had. I am a huge fan of the show and will continue to be.”

“We love Ellen and understand and support her decision to bow out of IDOL,” said Peter Rice, Chairman of Entertainment, Fox Networks Group. “We were fortunate to receive the humor, energy and love for talent that she brought to the show.”

“It was a joy to work with Ellen,” added Mike Darnell, President of Alternative Entertainment, Fox Broadcasting Company. “She brought an incredible spirit to IDOL and was a great new addition to the team. While we’re saddened by her decision, we are very appreciative that she gave us ample notice so that we could work through it together.”

“I loved Ellen’s passion for the artists and her nurturing skills,” said IDOL creator and executive producer Simon Fuller. “She brought honesty and optimism to our judging panel and I will miss her greatly.”

“We will miss Ellen, she has been the consummate professional throughout her time on the show, and she’ll always be part of the AMERICAN IDOL family,” added Cecile Frot-Coutaz, IDOL executive producer.

AMERICAN IDOL is created and executive-produced by Simon Fuller, founder of 19 Entertainment; and executive-produced by Cecile Frot-Coutaz, CEO, FremantleMedia North America, Inc. and Ken Warwick, Executive Producer, FremantleMedia North America, Inc.
