Louise Redknapp wants X Factor job

Louise Redknapp wants to be an ‘X Factor’ judge.
The popstar has revealed that she would jump at the chance to take part in Simon Cowell’s show when it returns for a celebrity version later this year.
She told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "I love the ‘¬X Factor’, I think it’s brilliant, I would definitely be up for being a judge on it. For sure. If Simon can make it happen that would be great."
However, Louise would not be interested in competing in the celebrity version.
She said: "I don’t think that would be the right thing for me at this point in my career, but judging is a different idea entirely. That could work well."
Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that James Arthur would also love to be a judge on the celebrity version of ‘The X Factor’.
The ‘Say You Won’t Let Go’ hitmaker previously walked away as the champion of the ITV singing competition back in 2012, and after plans were announced to create an all star version of the programme, James said he’d "love to get involved" as a member of the judging panel.
He said: "I’d love to get involved but I wouldn’t want to be a contestant. I’m still signed to a record label so I don’t think it would be right for me to take part in that way, but I’d definitely be up for helping out in some way."
And when asked if he’d judge the show, he added: "Yes I’d love to do that. If they want a really honest judge then I’d be more than happy to do it."
