Pussycat Doll to X Factor?

IS PUSSYCAT DOLL THE X FACTOR? Nicole Scherzinger, who already earned her reality show stripes by being voted last season’s winner on Dancing With the Stars, could be headed to the judges’ table on Simon Cowell’s U.S. version of X Factor. The N.Y. Post claims the job is between Scherzinger and British pop songbird Cheryl Cole, who is already a judge on the show’s U.K. edition. Last summer, Scherzinger sat in on the U.K. show for Cole and fellow judge Danni Minogue, which had British papers reporting the stateside job would be hers, which Nicole has continued to deny. Current IDJ Chairman L.A. Reid has also been rumored to be up for a gig on the show. (11/15a)
