FOX Confirms Cheryl Cole Off U.S. ‘X Factor’
Despite reports suggesting Cheryl Cole would be returning to the American version of ‘The X Factor’, a brief statement earlier today from FOX and Syco confirmed that the Girls Aloud star has been replaced after filming just two audition episodes of the reality show last month. Taking her place will be Nicole Scherzinger, who initially had signed on to co-host the program. A reason for the move was not given in the statement.
