Cheryl Cole will be a judge on “The X Factor,” Simon Cowell confirmed today.

“I’m thrilled for Cheryl. She is massively excited about this show, and has been fantastic to work with,” said Cowell. ”She is also a complete brat! Most importantly, this girl can spot talent.”

And Cole said, “I just can’t decide whether I am more excited to find and nurture the talent or for the unbelievable amount of amusement and entertainment I will have watching Simon doing everything and anything he can to beat me.”

Cole, a member of the British pop group Girls Aloud, has been a judge on the show’s U.K. version for three years.

The singer joins music producer L.A. Reid on the judges’ panel, while Nicole Scherzinger is reportedly going to host the competition.

It’s also been reported that Paula Abdul will soon be named the third and final judge.

Blake Shelton Apologizes For Anti-Gay Tweet Scandal

Blake Shelton may be doing great as a judge on the new show The Voice, but he’s upsetting others with his comments off set. He is apologizing for one of his recent tweets that came across as anti-gay.

“Re-writing my fav Shania Twain song.. Any man that tries Touching my behind He’s gonna be a beaten, bleedin’, heaving kind of guy…”

The original lyrics to this part of the song are, “Any man of mine better walk the line – Better show me a teasin’ squeezin’ pleasin’ kinda time.” Within hours of posting this rewrite, the gay rights group GLAAD released a statement ordering Shelton to apologize for the offensive tweet, stating that “violence against the LGBT community is not a laughing matter.” Shelton quickly responded to the uproar to apologize and called the whole thing a misunderstanding.

“It honestly wasn’t even meant that way… I now know that their are people out there waiting to jump at everything I say on here or anywhere.”

He continued to apologize by tweeting several more times. He let GLAAD and fans of The Voice know that he thinks violence is unacceptable, and even declared that when it comes to gay rights or “just feelings,” he loves everybody.

Comparing his lyrics to the original, it doesn’t seem like he could have meant it any other way than what everyone assumed. Of course he’s going to apologize when faced with public outrage, but he should have reconsidered before tweeting that unnecessary thought in the first place.
