He might have just waged a war between the talent shows, as Will.i.am wants Cheryl to be a judge on The Voice, despite the fact Simon Cowell apparently wants her for this year’s X Factor.
It’s rumoured that Simon is trying to win her over with a big six figure deal, but it hasn’t been confirmed whether Cheryl will definitely return to The X Factor.
A source told the Daily Star: “Simon wants to pull out all the stops for this year’s show and bagging Cheryl’s long-awaited return to telly would be one of his top wishes.”
But he might have to put up a fight because Cheryl’s close friend, judge of The Voice Will.i.am wants her to sit next to him on one of those big red chairs.

Whichever one she chooses it will be good to see Cheryl on TV again, as she has resigned herself from the limelight since becoming a mum.
