New X Factor Judge Is Cheryl Cole
Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole has been named as the new judge on The X Factor.
She will fill the gap left by long-standing judge Sharon Osbourne, who announced earlier last week she was quitting the show.
Cole will join Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh and Dannii Minogue on the popular ITV talent show.
Osbourne, who was a judge for four years, revealed both Cole and Spice Girl Mel B had been approached about taking her place.
Cole, 24, who shot to fame when Girls Aloud won reality TV show Popstars: The Rivals, said it was "scary" to be joining the ITV1 show.
"It's a massive honour to be following in the footsteps of Sharon Osbourne," she said.
"The rest of the girls have said they're right behind me, which is really important for me as it will be weird to be on the other side of the fence this time."
