Stacey Solomon reveals she's 'in talks' for The X Factor: All Stars
She's due to speak to Simon Cowell himself!
Stacey Solomon may be best known these days for her role on Loose Women, former Queen of the Jungle and for being an all-round wonderful human on Instagram, but let's not forget where she started out. At the tender age of 20, Stacey made it to the final of The X Factor - and she's rarely been off our screens since.
And it turns out that Stacey could be returning to her roots by appearing on the upcoming The X Factor: All Stars - a new edition of the show which will see former contestants compete to be the ultimate X Factor champion.
Speaking to Closer, Stacey admitted that she's due a phone call catch-up with show boss Simon Cowell, who has told her he wants to discuss the show with her. She told the publication, "He’s really nice! He’s always been great to me.
"They are doing The X Factor: All Stars series later this year, where they bring back past contestants. He said he wants to talk about it with me, so I think I’ve got to have a phone call with him soon!"
With the announcement that The X Factor: Celebrity edition is airing this Saturday (12th Oct), it seems that the All Stars version could be put on the backburner whilst it's on, but we do know that series two winner Shayne Ward will not be appearing.
He told Closer, "I can’t do All Stars because I’m contracted for something else. It’s gutting because I loved that show – I’m so proud of it."
