Louis Walsh has revealed that he is expecting two new X Factor judges on the UK show.
The Irish music mogul, who has been on every series of the ITV talent contest, said that nobody had been hired yet for the next run.
Walsh added that he did expect to return for the eighth series, but said that he didn't think Simon Cowell or Cheryl Cole would have time for the UK programme in 2011.
"No-one has been hired for it yet. I've had an off-the-record chat with Simon. I think I am on the show but nothing has been confirmed yet," he told OK! TV.
"I think that there will be two new judges and I think Simon and Cheryl will be in America during the next UK series... I think Dannii will be back with me on the UK show."
Speaking about his ideal replacement for Cowell, Walsh suggested his friend and former judge Sharon Osbourne.
Listing his dream X Factor panellists, he added: "Someone like David Bowie, Paul McCartney or Lenny Kravitz."
OK! TV airs at 6.25pm on Channel 5 every weekday.
