Nicole Scherzinger offered X Factor role?

Guest judge Nicole Scherzinger has been offered a full time role according to press reports.
The Sun newspaper reports that the former Pussycat Dolls singer has been offered a deal worth £500,000 to become a full time judge on the show. This week she was a guest judge at the London auditions which are being held at the O2 arena.

“We are talking to Nicole about taking on the job full time. She is the only person in the frame.” – An ‘insider’ told The Sun

The auditions are featuring guest judges after the show’s producers failed to sign Dannii Minogue. It was widely reported that the former judge and singer would be making a dramatic return to the show, but pulled out just days before the first audition.
Gary Barlow, Tulisa Contostavlos and Louis Walsh have been joined by other guest judges including Geri Halliwell and Rita Ora.
