Nadine Coyle creating a lot of buzz in America already
An Entertainment Reporter on twitter has revealed there is a lot of buzz for Nadine in America. We recently found out that she will be releasing a single from her album ‘Insatiable’ called Runnin’ for the American audience.
@RyanJL tweeted 2 days ago: “I was chatting Nadine’s US team today. They say that she’s with key NYC DJ’s, got appearances at Fire Island, The Hamptons. They are also watching Nadine’s track Runnin’ “closely” because it has been “picked up by some key stations here in the states”
He also tweeted about the current situation over Cheryl Cole’s firing from The US X Factor not being in connection with Nadine’s single announcement:
“Nadine Coyle’s US team tell me that single announcement was “designed weeks ago”. Weren’t aware of Cheryl drama: they “play fair, not mean”.
It was just a big coincidence that the 2 announcements were made within days of each other. So don’t read any bad press articles as they only like to create non-existant rifts!

Its Official! Cheryl Cole is a judge on The US X Factor
Its finally been confirmed after months and months of speculation and hype, Cheryl Cole has landed a top job as a judge on the US X Factor. She will join Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid on the judging panel of the show and she cannot wait to get started.
Cheryl says “I’m so excited to be taking part in the American version of The X Factor.
I absolutely love it here in the UK, and with the talent they have out in America, I’m sure we’re going to find someone very special. I can’t wait to get started.
I just can’t decide whether I am more excited to find and nurture the talent or for the unbelievable amount of amusement and entertainment I will have watching Simon doing everything and anything he can to beat me.
He’s tried to beat me for three years in the UK, and hasn’t even come close. His ego must be so bruised. America is gonna love this.”
Simon, who has worked alongside Cheryl for 3 years on the UK version of The X Factor said “I’m thrilled for Cheryl. She is massively excited about this show, and has been fantastic to work with. She is also a complete brat! Most importantly, this girl can spot talent.”
Auditions start this Sunday 8th May through till 26th May. The show will be shown on FOX channel in America AND also on ITV2 in the UK!

Simon Cowell ‘confirms’ Cheryl as a US X Factor judge
After months of speculation, the biggest hint yet of a confirmed US X Factor panel has come in an interview Simon Cowell gave recently to Deadline.com.
In it, he says Paula Abdul, Antonio ‘LA’ Reid and Cheryl Cole will join him as judges on the talent show, which is set to begin later this year.
Defending his choice of the Girls Aloud singer, who is relatively unknown stateside and whose accent Deadline.com describes as “incomprehensible”, Cowell claims she is “special”.
“She’s a great judge. She’s smart. It’s just a hunch. If people take to her like the British public did, I think she’s going to do really well in America,” he adds.
BUT
Simon Cowell’s representative came out firing in response not long after the news broke, claiming nothing is set in stone and those two ladies were just a few possibilities among many.
A tabloid has claimed that judges Simon Cowell and Cheryl Cole have decided not to take part in the next series of ‘The X Factor’ in the UK.
The News of the World says Cowell and Cole, tipped to work together on his US version of the show, have told ITV bosses that they would not have the time to appear on both programmes.
Cowell is quoted by “a friend” as saying: “I’m committed to the American show and I’m not going to do both.”
A source told the paper: “Simon would have to produce two big shows at the same time and he and Cheryl would have to mentor and judge acts in both countries. It would just be too much for them.”
Cowell appeared to say last week in a US interview that he would still appear on both shows.
Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell leaving X Factor, says Louis Walsh
Cheryl Cole and Simon Cowell will not take part in the next series of The X Factor, fellow judge Louis Walsh has revealed.
Simon is working on a new US version of the show and has long been rumoured to be worried about his workload, despite deciding to sit out the auditions stage of Britain’s Got Talent.
Girls Aloud singer Cheryl is set to join him on The X Factor across the Atlantic and Louis told the News of the World that would mean big changes for ITV1′s version.
‘It will be me and Dannii (Minogue) on the UK show with two more people,’ he explained.
A spokesman for Simon said his future involvement with The X Factor here is ‘still being discussed’.
Should Louis prove to be correct, it would be a major blow to ITV to lose the two biggest and most controversial stars from its most popular show.
Nicole Scherzinger is rumoured to have been lined up to replace Cheryl after impressing during a stint as a guest judge last year, but there is no clear frontrunner to step into Simon’s shoes.
