Rihanna to join X Factor?

Rihanna looks set for a spot of the U.S version of X Factor when the show launches later this year.

A source told Look magazine;

"To get her on the show would give it real star power. Nicole Scherzinger and Cheryl Cole are also being considered for places on the judging panel, because they've got a proven track record of being great judges, but that doesn't rule Rihanna out.

"She has a massive appeal and a real edge to her," they added. "Simon knows she wouldn't be afraid to give her opinion."
