Simon Tips Cheryl To Win

On last night’s show it was revealed that Simon will mentor the groups, Louis Walsh the over 28s, Dannii Minogue the boys while Cheryl’s got the girls.

 

Show boss Cowell said: “In terms of what I've seen so far, particularly in that girls category, it should be a stronger year.”

 

Both he and Louis appeared annoyed at the categories they were given on the talent contest.

 

Cole’s gang of hopefuls includes feisty Cher Lloyd, Gamu Nhengu and Katie Waissel while Simon will be working with acts like Twem.

 

Dannii has even been winding the music mogul up about his chances of winning. She told the Daily Mail: “Simon hasn't won in a while, so maybe he's going to get kicked off."

 

She continued: “I think we've all got to have our own game-plan for that happening. If Cheryl gets close to it by the end of the year, we're going to have to band together for sure.”

 

Chezza mentored both Alexandra Burke and Joe McElderry as they went on to win the X Factor.

 

Next week sees the eight acts in each category get whittled down in the ‘judges houses’ section of the show.
