Former judge is choosing not to tune in and watch her old rival Cheryl Cole take her seat

 

SIMON Cowell brought Cheryl Cole back to The X Factor in a bid to boost ratings.

But one person he can't count on to tune in and support the show is his former employee Nicole Scherzinger – who Cheryl has replaced.

"I won't be watching The X Factor," she told the Daily Mirror.

The comment sounded to many like a swipe at the show but the singer insisted there were no bad feelings.

"That’s not a dig against the X Factor – I just don’t watch television," she added.

“I don’t even know how to turn it on and I don’t have cable even.

"I think I am the only person without. It’s not good."

Even if she does eventually figure out where the on button is on her remote, Nicole addmitted she wouldn't be pressing it to watch the show.

"I’ll be too busy with my music and touring."

Of course you will be, Nicole.
