Cheryl Cole will join Simon Cowell on the American X Factor in a multi-million pound deal in a move that will spectacularly launch her Hollywood career.
The 27-year-old will quit the British X Factor to be a judge on the new version of the television talent hit which will debut in the States next year, the Daily Mail has learned.
A source close to millionaire Cowell, 50, last night confirmed the move, telling the Daily Mail: ‘I would say it’s a good bet that Cheryl is coming to America. It’s something that Simon and Cheryl have been discussing for months. You know, it’s a very exciting prospect for everyone involved to have Cheryl on board.’
Cowell helped the petite star make the move away from her pop band Girls Aloud when he handed her the X Factor role two years ago. Since then she has launched a successful solo music career – and has seen her fame soar.
The star, who has an estimated £10 million fortune, will earn £1.5 million for this series of the X Factor – but will make up to twice more from her US television deal as the budget for the show is considerately larger.
She has spent weeks in Los Angeles working on her music and spending time with her close friend Derek Hough as she recovered from malaria. And she was even in the Californian sunshine as her divorce from cheating Chelsea footballer was finalised two weeks ago.
The Mail had told how this will be Mrs Cole’s last series of the X Factor and a show source said: ‘When Cheryl goes to America she will also launch her music career there too. It’s the next part of her big plan, she’s an incredibly hard worker and she will definitely get a boost by appearing on the X Factor, which is set to be a sure-fire hit.
‘The X Factor will be off air in the UK next year and by the time it returns in January 2012, it is highly unlikely that Cheryl will return.
‘Cheryl loves Los Angeles and this is extremely exciting. It is all part of a fresh new start for her.’
Cowell has also lined up Pussycat doll singer Nicole Scherzinger to join him and Mrs Cole on the American X Factor after being left impressed by the brunette during her stint on the X Factor auditions.
Originally meant to fill in for Dannii Minogue, she then had to cover for Mrs Cole as well after she was struck down with a deadly strain of malaria.
And Cowell told X Magazine this week: 'Nicole was in a very difficult situation in Manchester when everyone knew Cheryl was ill.
‘They can be a tough crowd and a lot of them turned up because they wanted to see Cheryl. But what was amazing was how quickly everyone warmed to Nicole. By the end they absolutely loved her
Mrs Cole will this weekend make her X Factor comeback for the first time since her malaria battle as she picks her finalists for the ITV talent show.
She will be joined by her friend Will.i.am from Black Eyed Peas, whom she has frequently collaborated with. The American musician will help her chose the contestants for the live shows next month.
Cowell has already helped break Piers Morgan on an unsuspecting American public after giving him a judging role on America’s Got Talent, alongside Sharon Osbourne.
Morgan has now landed a £12 million job to take over from chat show veteran Larry King on CNN. However, Cowell told how his company Syco will produce Morgan’s ITV series, Life Stories.
