Plus, Simon!
Simon Cowell and L.A. Reid will return as judges to THE X FACTOR this Fall on FOX. Additional judges are to be announced.
“We wanted to change a few things this year, so starting with the auditions, we’ve torn up the rulebook again," said Cowell. "Even if you have management you can still enter, and we are making it easier by extending the online auditions and taking the MyStudio booths to even more cities. You can enter as many times as you want and come to any of the cities, too. We’re here to discover stars from all music styles including groups. I really believe a group can win this show!”
