Simon Cowell To Pinch Rita Ora From The Voice?
Reports claim SiCo wants Ora to join himself and Chezza on the X Factor judging panel...
Simon Cowell has apparently set his sights on Rita Ora to be a judge on the X Factor.
Yep, it’s that time of year again when rumours regarding the new panel are rife online, with SiCo and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini already set for a comeback.
And, while the future of Louis Walsh and Mel B (despite Chezza’s rumoured protests) hangs in the balance, The Voice coach Rita Ora has now been linked to the ITV talent show.
The ‘I Will Never Let You Down’ singer previously appeared on the XF as a guest judge back in 2012, with The Daily Star reporting that Cowell is keen to have talks with the blonde bombshell for this year's series.
When asked about Rita’s judging credentials, the music mogul told the tabloid: “I saw Rita on The Voice and I thought she was very good.
"When it comes to asking her over, you know, it’s fair game."
SiCo then recalled how he pinched Britain’s Got Talent judge Alesha Dixon from rival BBC show Strictly Come Dancing, hinting that he may do the same with Ora.
I'll make it easy, got a lot to lose
Watch the sunlight, coming through
Open the window, let it shine on you
'Cause I've been sick and working all week
And I've been doing just fine (Hey)
You've been tired of watching me
Forgot to have a good time, boy (Hey)
You can't take it, all these faces
Never keeping it real
I know exactly how you feel
When you say you've had enough
And you might just give it up
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
When you feeling low on love
I'll be what you dreaming of
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
There's a million ways to go
Don't be embarrassed if you lose control
On the rooftop, now they know
Your body's frozen and you lost your soul
'Cause I've been sick and working all week
And I've been doing just fine (Hey)
You've been tired of watching me
Forgot to have a good time, boy (Hey)
You can't take it, all these faces
Never keeping it real (Yeah, yeah)
I know exactly how you feel
When you say you've had enough
And you might just give it up
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
When you feeling low on love
I'll be what you dreaming of
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
Oh, oh
I will never let you down
Let me take you where you never go
Have a little fun, it's the only way we know
Let me show you what you never see
You know how to love, only when you holding me (Oh)
When you say you've had enough
And you might just give it up
Oh, oh
I will never let you down (Oh)
When you feeling low on love
I'll be what you dreaming of
Oh, oh
I will never let you down (Oh)
When you say you've had enough
And you might just give it up
Oh, oh
I will never let you down (Oh)
When you feeling low love
I'll be what you dreaming of
I will never let you down
The 55-year old said: “We were calling Alesha for two years to come and join one of our shows. I think they have to want to come over in the first place."
Over to you Rita...
