Geri Halliwell is going to be a judge on The X Factor again

  • May 21, 2012

Donde esta mi magis­trada X Factor? She's right here everyone, it's Ginger Spice!

'Heaven And Hell (Being Geri Halliwell)' hitmaker Geri Halliwell — respons­ible for dis­cov­er­ing such acts as Clea, Javine and Phixx — will be reunited with Louis Walsh as Kelly Rowland's temporary (for now) replace­ment on the X Factor judging panel.

Auditions begin in Liverpool this Wednesday.

According to The Sun, The X Factor will buy time with a number of guest judges until bootcamp, and these will reportedly include Tinie Tempah, Alicia Keys, Robbie Williams, Gwen Stefani and Rod Stewart.

Geri was booed when she stood in for Dannii two years ago and a hopeful 'source' told the paper: "This is a new panel and Geri might have better chemistry with them. Guest stars bring excite­ment but they are also a gamble."

Geri Halliwell a gamble? How rude.
