Nick Grimshaw Set to be New X Factor Judge

Well this is an underwhelming decision if we've ever heard of one, although it is still officially yet to be announced, it is thought the BBC Radio1 DJ has landed a gig as a judge on the upcoming series of X Factor.

The show is planning a massive overhaul for this season, with new hosts, and some new judges too. As usual, speculation is rife as to who they could be, but a source has told The Sun, that Grimshaw would be confirmed in the next 24 hours

The source said; "It would take a real curve ball to mess up the deal," while the paper has also quoted Simon Cowell as saying; "Nick loves artists and music, that's what I love about him."

Hardly all solid proof so we may just have to wait and see on this one. We're solidly hoping we are wrong though, but watch this space.
