There’s been so much speculation around what was the deal clincher for new X Factor judges Rita Ora and Nick Grimshaw. While Rita denies claims that it was £1.5 million deal that attracted her to the show, we've discovered that now Nick's on the judging panel, he's going to need help with something much closer to home…

Edith Bowman has covered Nick's radio shows in the past, so she knows exactly what Nick needs at work. So what is he going to be demanding on his new X Factor contract?

She tells us: “He'd definitely need someone to walk his dog Pig, he'd definitely need someone to look after the dog, his for life buddy, Pig goes everywhere with him.

“I think he will be amazing. He’ll be really honest with people. I love Grimmy – he's an entertainer and he absolutely loves what he does.

“I'd like to see him have the girls category, because he can give it all that (clicks fingers to give attitude) as good as anyone. I think he'd work it… he'd be awesome with the girls.”

Well lets hope there's enough cash left in the budget for a doggy day care so Pig can join Simon's dogs Squiddly and Diddly...
