Cheryl Cole snubbed over US 'X Factor'?

Cheryl Cole has allegedly been snubbed over a role on the US 'X Factor'.

OK! reports that Simon Cowell let slip who the judges were on 'Access Hollywood' and Cheryl was not on it.

He said: 'I've spoken to Mariah (Carey). I've spoken to Paula (Abdul). I mean we've spoken to lots of people

'And that's why it's good to kind of delay the process. It's not about necessarily the TV show per se, it's people.

'You've genuinely got to trust that they're going to be able to do the job you're paying them to do.

'And a hit-maker who's worked in America and has had experiecne is crucial to this panel as well.'
