Eminem: 'I Want To Be A Judge On The X Factor'November 26, 2009
 Eminem has offered his services to UK talent show The X Factor saying he would like to be a judge.
Mr Mathers believes that hip-hop is ignored on the show and it badly needs a global, platinum selling star on the panel to find real talent. Speaking of Simon Cowell, Dannii Minogue, Cheryl Cole and Louis Walsh, Eminem said: "No disrespect to the current judges but you need people who are global, platinum-selling stars. “You need to prepare contestants for what it's really like out there, and what sort of pressure you are going to be under.” The 37-year-old continued to The Sun: "So much average talent comes out of these reality shows, it's time to give people a chance who deserve it. "A hip-hop star will never win a show like The X Factor without somebody like me on the panel. "There are a lot of very talented hip-hop stars who would kill for a break in Britain but the judges aren't qualified in hip-hop. "I keep my eye on the urban scene in Britain and there is a lot of talent out there. It needs somebody in power to open a door for them." Asked by the newspaper whether he'd like to be a permanent judge on the ITV show, Em said: "I am not sure I would have the time to do it full-time, but I would come and be a guest judge. "Simon tells it like it is and I am down with that. If somebody ain't good enough they ain't good enough." (by Scott Colothan) See also: | |||||||||||||||||||
