Leona Lewis has pushed back the release of her third album, ‘Glassheart,’ once again delaying the long awaited album until November.

Call it a clash of the divas! Following a tumultuous first ‘X Factor‘ season, Nicole Scherzinger is rumored to be leaving … And to have a pretty pricey replacement: None other than the best selling female artist of all time, Mariah Carey, may fill the Over 30s judge’s designer shoes!

Looks like all those prayers and well wishes for Nick Cannon did the trick! Mariah Carey‘s hubby and DemBabies’ proud papa was able to go home over the weekend, after being laid up in multiple hospitals over the past week, following mild kidney failure.

Melanie Amaro was crowned the first-ever ‘X Factor’ winner less than a month ago and things are moving full speed ahead for the future superstar. First up on the docket: signing a record deal with Epic Records.

She’s only 14, but ‘X Factor‘ alum Drew Ryniewicz has already gotten further in the pursuit of her dreams than some people manage in a lifetime. Although she was voted off the show in Week 6, she’s about to enjoy a triumphant return in the season finale — while making one more dream come true in the bargain.

Quarterback controversies are common as colds in the football realm, and it looks like we have a judge’s panel controversy brewing in ‘X Factor‘-ville. With last week’s elimination of fan favorite Rachel Crow, thanks to Nicole Scherzinger‘s much-criticized decision to let the vote go to deadlock and allow America’s voting tally to decide, it turns out that the Scherz may not be 100 percent to blam

Simon Cowell is a media mogul, which makes him a media magnet, as well. He sees no less than 500 tabloid items printed about him and his entertainment properties in a single year. His ‘X Factor‘ show antics and his love life are often the topics of the press and publicity surrounding the acid-tongued judge. Simon Cowell, Inc. is a well-oiled machine, a brand and a corporation, and as the saying go

Tonight on ‘X Factor,’ the remaining five contestants performed not one, but two songs for a spot in the semi-finals. The show started off with a bang courtesy of vocal powerhouse Melanie Amaro. For her first performance, the contestant, who is one of two left on Simon Cowell‘s team, was challenged to perform a dance song, and she chose to tackle a remixed version of Adele‘s ‘Someone Like You... R

He’s had his hands in some of the most successful albums and TV shows of the last 20 years, and made enough money to never have to work another day in his life — so the list of people Simon Cowell needs to listen to is awfully short. But when Mariah Carey says she wants to appear on Simon’s new series, ‘The X Factor,’ he pays attention.

Paula and Simon...They're Baaaaaaack!

Following weeks of messy publicity, Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger will officially replace Cheryl Cole as a judge on Fox's upcoming reality-competition series 'The X Factor.' In a joint statement released Monday, Fox and 'X Factor' producers FremantleMedia and Syco TV said, "Nicole Scherzinger will be replacing Cheryl Cole on the judging panel of The X Factor.

Brand-new mom Mariah Carey reportedly has plans to release a CD later this year, her husband, Nick Cannon, told the NY Daily News. Carey reportedly worked on the album while she was still pregnant with twins Monroe and Moroccan.

Though negotiations reportedly went down to the wire, Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul stepped out in full force Sunday for the first round of 'X Factor' auditions in Los Angeles.

Paula Abdul has signed on as the fourth and final judge of 'The X Factor,' the Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Sources say that negotiations went down to the wire, due in part to her deal with CBS to appear on the dance-competition series 'Live to Dance.'

Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell back together?  Yep!  Abdul has reportedly signed on as the fourth judge on Simon’s Cowell’s "X Factor".   And as crazy as this is going to sound, I'm glad!  Yes I am.  I used to think the two of them on American Idol acted a bit too hokey at times, but you know what, I miss it.
