Much like our membership status of the European Union and a Hollyoaks title credit, you can’t change The X Factor judging panel without people kicking up a fuss.

And rightly so – last year's was just terrible!

Made all the worse by the act that Dermot O'Leary WASN'T THERE.

It was a dark time.

But we all REJOICED when we heard that a new (and very old) judging panel would be returning this year – Simon Cowell, Nicole Scherzinger, Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne (AND DERMZ!).

The X Factor

And they've been bloody good, haven't they?

A highlight was when they all seemed to be absolutely off their TITS during the first live shows.

Sharon denied it, though – hmmmm.

And now Simon Cowell has spilled the beans on next year's judging panel, and it sounds EXCITING.

When asked by Digital Spy whether the current panel will return next year, he said: "I hope so yeah. Will you invite them?"

YAAAAASSS.

If a judging panel doesn't have Louis Walsh in it, is it really a judging panel?

Louis Walsh

Debatable.

In other X Factor news, Gifty Louise has claimed that she's been TOLD she'd be booted from Sunday night's show.

:O:O:O

"I knew I was going home, I got told I was going home on the Saturday night, so I knew," she told On Demand Entertainment.

"I don’t want to mention any names," she continued. "But I did feel it was unfair. It was my first time in the bottom two.

"For Four Of Diamonds it was their second time, Ryan Lawrie has been in the bottom three three times. It is what it is."

WE'RE BAFFLED.

Who told her? Why would they tell her?

Does this mean that The X Factor is indeed A FIX?

IS EVERYTHING WE'VE EVER KNOWN A LIE?

Who can be sure?

Also – did you see Ryan Lawrie's MEGA TWITTER RANT after he made the bottom three for the third time?

NIGHTMARE!
