8 of 8
Katy Perry
Perry made a funny and sexy guest judge on "Idol," and she could teach a lesson or two about pop music: She just became the first artist to have six pop songs from the same album chart at number one.

Perez Hilton
The celebrity blogger has posted an "open letter" (which is really a video) to Simon Cowell, explaining why he's the most "fabulous" choice for the job.

Beyonce
Simon Cowell is reportedly courting Beyonce to compete with the star power of Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler on "Idol." But who's going to babysit Blue Ivy?

Mariah Carey
Several sources close to the "X Factor" production told HollywoodLife.com that Mariah is a frontrunner -- and she seems to be a popular choice on Twitter.

Victoria Beckham
Beckham's name seems to be coming up more as a possible host -- but she made a surprisingly sweet and charming guest judge on "Idol."

Fergie
Several sources close to the "X Factor" production told HollywoodLife.com that the Black Eyed Pea is the other frontrunner for the gig, along with Mariah.
-
Lady Gaga
There's no bigger pop star in the world than Lady Gaga -- and she would definitely attract much-needed eyeballs every week.

The famously snarky actor-singer-Broadway lover might make a great host … or even a solid judge.

Katy Perry
Perry made a funny and sexy guest judge on "Idol," and she could teach a lesson or two about pop music: She just became the first artist to have six pop songs from the same album chart at number one.

You've probably heard that Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger and Steve Jones have been booted from "The X Factor," but that's yesterday's news. The big question is, who should replace them?
We're hearing rumblings that Simon Cowell would love to lure his old "American Idol" sidekick Ryan Seacrest to replace Jones as host, or maybe Victoria Beckham. But according to reports, he's focusing on hiring new judges first, to replace Abdul (who has been billed as "too soft") and Scherzinger (who "didn't connect" with fans).
Word on the street is that Cowell wants bigger star power for his show -- much bigger. In fact, we're hearing that he's courting Beyonce, Mariah Carey and Fergie (easier said than done!). But here's someone who is definitely available, interested and relatively cheap: Perez Hilton. The celebrity blogger has posted an "open letter" (which is really a video) to Simon Cowell, explaining why he's the right man for the job.
"Most importantly I am a huge music lover and I bring with me a lot of experience and expertise in the world of music. I have been a huge champion and early supporter of such artists as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Adele and Amy Winehouse," he claims.
And of course, Perez would bring a little 'tude to the table. "I'm just going to be me and I'm so fabulous -- in case you couldn't tell -- and fun and self-deprecating!" he promises. That might be true, but we still think Cowell could do a bit better ... from Perez to Beyonce to Mariah, click through our slideshow and let us know: Who should be the next "X Factor" judge?

At least get someone WITH talent.
I'd like to see Sir Elton John on there.
"Alejandro
Alejandro
Ale-Alejandro
Ale-Alejandro"
One word or phrase repeated over and over again is not meaningfull. Yes, Lady Gaga is Talented, but does she have the most meaningfull songs ever?
