Stacy Keibler is reportedly in talks to join “The X Factor.”
Simon Cowell’s singing talent competition has been looking for new faces since former host Steve Jones and judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger departed in January.
Now, in addition to rumored conversations with Britney Spears and other high-profile potential additions, Keibler is said to be in the mix.
George Clooney’s girlfriend is “in talks to join the show, but her lack of experience in the music business may make her more appropriate as a host,” a source tells the New York Post. “She looks fantastic and has bags of charisma.”
A source close to Keibler did not deny to Gossip Cop that the former wrestler is being discussed for an “X Factor” role.
It should be noted, however, that tons of names – ranging from Spears and Janet Jackson to Avril Lavigne and Mariah Carey – have been reportedly targeted as “X Factor” replacements without any actual deals being hammered out yet.
Cowell and returning judge L.A. Reid have said that the next two judges will be women, and that they’re planning to replace Jones with two hosts.
Gossip Cop is continuing to look into the Keibler hosting rumor.
