Cheryl Cole Dropped As U.S. ‘X Factor’ Judge Due To Accent

TMZ reports Cheryl Cole has been dropped as one of ‘The X Factor’ judges because producers were concerned about her English accent being too difficult for an American audience to understand. Sources added that there was a “lack of chemistry” between the Girls Aloud star and fellow judge Paula Abdul. Though bosses at the UK version of the show want her to return, Cheryl is upset about how she was handled and may break ties with the ‘X Factor’ franchise all together.
