Cheryl Cole Back on X Factor US!

So… publicity stunt? That’s what we think, especially since no ones reps mentioned anything about the situation.

Sources are now saying that axed X- Factor judge is now back on – not because they love her, but because her contract rewarded her the 1.2 million dollars if she was on the show or not.

Of course Simon has a strong hand in the re-negotations but executives would rather pay her for doing the work than nothing at all – and so, Cheryl is back on!

According to News Of The World, Cheryl is now expected to rejoin the judging panel when auditions start again in New Jersey on Wednesday.
