X Factor: Sinitta out! Sharon Osbourne and Brian Friedman in!

It's all change once more for The X Factor, mentors and coaches are being dumped and hired all over the place! If reports are anything to go by, Simon Cowell's BFF Sinitta is out on her ear while choreographer Brain Friedman and show favourite Sharon Osbourne return.

For the past eight series Simon Cowell’s ex-girlfriend Sinitta has been his steadfast side-kick on The X Factor and last year she supported Louis Walsh. This year however, it could be all change as the Mail Online has reported that she's out!

The site claims a show insider has said the 80's pop star has been dropped, as she refused to sign Simon's new confidentiality agreement.

‘Sinitta is extremely disappointed because she felt she would always be a central part of the show after so many years. However, she wasn’t prepared to sign away her rights to speak to anyone about the show — which is what she was expected to do.'

It's believed that legendary X Factor diva Sharon Osbourne will return to take Sinitta's place.


As well as the mentors changing places, Cowell has also called back choreographer Brian Friedman. The X Factor chief was disappointed with last year's lacklustre dance routines and has allegedly offered Friedman £200,000 to come to the rescue. The creative director was axed back in 2007, it'll be interesting to see if he can put the pop back into the performances.
