Justin Bieber Heading To X Factor?

JUSTIN Bieber wants to be an X Factor judge — according to Simon Cowell.

The millionaire music mogul revealed the teen singer has put himself forward to appear on the TV show, which launches in America later this year.

“He [Justin Bieber] put himself forward to judge some of the episodes,” Cowell said.

Cowell also revealed that he’s got a huge A-lister lined up for the show.

“We had a phone call from someone on the weekend, someone very well known who out of the blue wanted to be a judge on the show. Literally out of the blue, and it’s one of the most famous singers in the world,” he said.

Justin, 16, has previously spoken of his desire to appear on the show.

“I think Simon Cowell is great.” he said earlier this year.

“The X Factor is coming to the US and I would love to do a guest judging slot. But some people might not like getting advice from a guy my age.”
