Nicole Scherzinger is still in discussions with X Factor bosses over her return to the judging panel this year.
Contrary to a report claiming she's already quit, a spokesperson for the former Pussycat Doll says the decision is still not set in stone.
"Nicole is still in discussion with X Factor bosses about the show," her rep told 3am.
Last year it was announced the 35-year-old had signed a £3 million recording deal with Sony, while a source close to Nicole confirmed to 3am that she will need to promote her album this year, but she's torn because the show feels like family now.
"Yes she is going to release an album and needs to promote it around the world, but she loves the show and has made a home for herself in the UK.
"She was really homesick the first year she did The X Factor, but now it's become her family and isn't sure about leaving that behind. She adores the British public," they explained.
So Nicole's Official team have denied she has quit X Factor and is actually in talks with the producers. You guys need to stop believing anything that the papers say.
I for one am happy she hasn't quit yet, heres hoping Simon, Cheryl, Nicole and Louis panel can be acheived.
I can't imagine Nicole feeling good about being relagated down to seat three next to Louis, but I'm sure Simon and Cheryl will be in their old seats, so she'll need to.
I really want that panel now, I think it will be a ratings hit.
^ Cause Nicole was amazing last season? she lost all her acts first & flopped 2 of the biggest hopefuls from the auditions & many people say she made the wrong choices for live shows...
