X Factor guest judges revealed including Louis Tomlinson and Meghan Trainor

Sure, she might not be on The X Factor this year, but the singer didn’t let that stop her from making an entrance at the National Television Awards on Sunday.

Last year she joined Simon Cowell in LA wearing a giant red and yellow headdress and what can only be described as a bikini made out of hair.

During a visit to a set design class, Simon took the time to speak to the students.

But that’s because the one and only Louis Tomlinson from that band One Direction (you might not have heard of them, they’re quite up-and-coming and obscure) will be joining his boss Simon at judges’ houses. “They’re just trying something different this year”. And Rita Ora? She’s all set to be paired with All About That Bass singer Meghan Trainor.

He’ll help Cowell narrow down the competition in the “overs” category in advance of the live shows, while Meghan Trainor will assist Rita Ora in choosing the girls, BBC Radio 1 host Nick Grimshaw the boys, and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini will have help from Jess Glynne for the group category.

Meanwhile Nick Grimshaw will join forces with DJ and producer Mark Ronson known for Uptown Funk which premièred on last year’s semi-final after Fleur East was allowed to perform it before it was released.

The judges will be flying off to glamorous locations too.

There are rumors that they’ll be jetting off to Rome – all right for some … Due to radio commitments the Dj can’t fly out to a more glam destination. The X Factor judges’ houses air on October 24 and 25 with a live results element from Wembley. He’s an avid Big Brother viewer, and loves Pic n Mix.
