LONDON -- The new line-up for The X Factorhas been announced, and it doesn't look very new at all.
Grumpy stalwart Simon Cowell will be joined this year by Sharon Osbourne, Louis Walsh and Nicole Scherzinger in the judges' chairs, with Dermot O'Leary back in the hosting role.
Caroline Flack and Olly Murs have been ditched.

Louis Walsh, on the other hand, just won't quit. He's held on tight to his position for a record 12 seasons. Last year's presenters - Nick Grimshaw, Cheryl Fernandez-Versisi and Rita Ora - have all left.
Producers and the BBC insist that the show will go on, but last year's final only pulled in 5.95 million viewers on average.

The judge's auditions begin on June 10 in Leicester, and the show will be aired until the end of time (or Christmas, whichever seems later).
