Pink isn’t ‘diplomatic’ enough for X Factor judging role

Pink doesn’t think she’s "diplomatic" enough to be an ‘X Factor’ judge.
The ‘Just Give Me A Reason’ hitmaker – who will perform during the show’s final on Sunday night (03.12.17) – doesn’t think she’s the right person for the judging panel for a show like the ‘X Factor’ as she wouldn’t want to be mean to anyone but also wouldn’t want to "bulls**t anyone" either.
She told The Sun on Sunday newspaper: "Would I be an X Factor judge? Nope. I’m not ­diplomatic and I wouldn’t be helpful. I would be so uncomfortable the whole time because I wouldn’t want to be mean to anyone, but then I wouldn’t want to bulls**t anyone. Everyone who does it is so talented and nice – they can have it."
And that will no doubt be music to Simon Cowell’s ears as he only recently revealed he is already considering having five people on the ‘X Factor’ judging panel after Cheryl Tweedy said she would like to make a return to the show full time.
Simon, though, is torn as he does like the current line up, which is himself, Louis Walsh Nicole Scherzinger and Sharon Osbourne.
He explained: "Nothing’s a done deal and I do like this panel. But the good news is that now more people want to do the show than before. Is Cheryl keen to come back? She is, yes – I guess she is. I think I’ll go into the New Year and then see how everyone feels. In the past, I’ve had to beg ­people to do the show, and it wasn’t always that easy. People would do it for a ­season, and say, ‘Right, I’m not coming back.’ But now it’s easier to do the show, it’s much more fun. Maybe I’ll have five people on the panel."
