Reports are currently circulating that Cheryl Cole has been axed from the X Factor, and replaced by X Factor darling Nicole Scherzinger.
Many sources believe the singer's Geordie accent is to blame, which Amercians are struggling to understand. This seems unlikely though, considering Welsh Steve Jones is still on the presenting team. Plus it's not like they didn't know she had an accent before they hired her.
It's a shame if the reports turn out to be true, as Cheryl has been channelling all her efforts into succeeding in the States. It'll be interesting to see what involvement Simon Cowell had in the decision too, considering he originally pushed for her to be in the show.
So, here's my suggestion: If Cheryl is on her way back to the UK, can we send The Hoff back to the USA? Seems like a fair swap!
What do you think about the rumours?
