AND then there were three. US singing star Adam Lambert has been named as the third and final judge for The X Factor in 2016.
Lambert joins Aussie superstar Iggy Azalea and Guy Sebastian as Channel Seven shakes up the program’s format in its eighth Australian season.
Fewer judges mean fewer spots for aspiring singers, with competition set to be hot this year.
“I am very excited to join X Factor in Australia and am looking forward to helping people shine their brightest,” Lambert said.
“Australia has always been one of my favourite places to tour. The Aussies I’ve met are so kind and good humoured — so the thought of getting to live in Sydney is very exciting.”
