Louis Walsh
Michael Louis Vincent Walsh (born 5 August 1952) is an Irish music manager and judge on The X Factor UK. He was briefly replaced by Brian Friedman for Series 4, but when Brian proved too critical, he was brought back. Walsh even got a chance to be a judge on The X Factor USA when he subbed for Simon Cowell, who had been sick, when the auditions took place in Kansas City, Missouri in June 2012. For Series 9 of The X Factor, Walsh mentored the Groups category.
In May 2015, reports began to surface that he wouldn't be returing for Series 12. He stated he hadn't been hired, but he hadn't been sacked either, he just wasn't returning. On 18th June 2015, it was announced that he would be replaced by DJ Nick Grimshaw, fellow judge Rita Ora also replace…

Wiki Adoption
I joined this wikia on August 25th and have steadily been trying to get everything up to date. Since there are several pages that are either duplicated or unnecessary I would like to offer my help as admin in order to tidy everything up.
I was just wondering how other users would feel about this?

Armchair Judgement: Top Finalists Perform - Week 2
- Jennel Garcia "Proud Mary" - Despite what Simon says, her coach has failed her once again (though she deserves some blame) and she is left with a county fair quality performance that is a far cry from the authentic spitfire she was in the audition process.
- Tate Stevens "From This Moment On" - Starts weak but gets better. He may not be as strong a vocalist as Carly Rose but he's as good as he needs to be to achieve his goal of country music stardom. He's the real deal.
- Diamond White "Halo" - Strongest so far. Nearly on par with Carly Rose vocally and far more authentic. Too bad she can't maintain control while moving.
- Beatrice Miller "Time After Time" - The poor girl is going through hard times at home and her coach has already got her hands f…
Sister C Loses To 5 Undeserving Cs
1432 (inexplicably translated as "I Love You, Too") nee' The Laylas AKA Simon's Pets are contestants on X-Factor USA. Five solo artists with disparate degrees of talent that were thrust together to compete in the Group category. Despite three attempts to do so, they have never really performed together but merely take turns at the mic while the other four sit on their thumbs and let recorded backing vocals handle the harmonies.
In other news Demi Lovato, who made the season's first big mistake when she chose phoney bitch CeCe Frey over the heartbreakingly incredible Jillian Jensen, nearly redeems herself by being the only judge this week that doesn't save her weakest member (i.e. one-trick-pony Willie Jones). Granted that no other judge has a…

X-Factor Comes to America
The much-hyped X-Factor: the American edition is premiering on September 21. Touted as a competition for Cowell's previous project, American Idol, X-Factor managed to recruit Paula Abdul as well, effectively marketing this as a Cowell-Abdul reunion.
For good measure, FOX offered an early 8-minute preview for the American premiere during Sunday's NFL game. Watch the extended promo below! Will you be watching X-Factor or are you a diehard American Idol fan? Tell us in the comments!
Cheryl Cole fired from X Factor
It's recently been reported that X-Factor judge Cheryl Cole has been fired from X Factor USA.
It's still unclear who exactly fired her and why, though many are saying it was the work of Simon Cowell.
Now the hollywood reporter tells us that Freemantle, the production company behind the show, has not officially fired Cheryl and is requesting she apply for a U.S. visa so she can still be on the show.
It appears that they would have been in breach of her contract and they don't want to have to pay her unless she works. All I can say is poor Cheryl. She's being thrown around like a rag doll in the public eye and it's just not right.
What does everybody else think? Tell us by voting below!
Bookies favor Idol over X Factor
Hello X Factor fans,
You've probably been reading all the hype over how Simon Cowell's X Factor USA will do compared to American Idol. Well if you're a bettor, than you might want to put your money on Idol.
The team of oddsmakers at Bookmaker.com have calculated the odds for each of the two shows getting the highest ratings in 2011. While X Factor has a 28.6% chance, Idol has a 90.9% likelihood, according to the firm.
The return on the wager is higher for X Factor at +250, compared to -1,000 for Idol, because betting on the option less likely to occur always earns the most amount of money.
The oddsmakers analyzed media reports and experts opinions on the two Fox music shows to come up with the numbers.
Whether it will be the ratings champion or n…
