Louis Tomlinson was recently in the ‘X-Factor UK’ Judges’ Houses to assist Simon Cowell on its first ever live show over the past weekend. The One Direction singer did not just impress Cowell with his work on the show. Apparently he also caught the attention of former “X-Factor” guest judge Sinitta, who suggested that Louis makes a good addition to the current panel of show judges.

Speaking on the “Good Morning Britain” show on Wednesday, Sinitta expressed her support for Louis as a guest judge on the “X-Factor UK.” In the video below, when asked about the recent changes happening on the Judges’ Houses, Sinitta mentioned the addition of the One Direction singer.

“I think Louis did a good job you know. He sort of has opinions. He’s genuine,” she said

When asked if the father-to-be could have a more permanent role on the “X-Factor UK, “Sinitta confidently replied that he “would make a great judge.”

This is not the first time that Sinitta had tipped Louis for a permanent position as a judge on the show. According to Metro UK, back in April she had said that he makes an “amazing” replacement for former judge Louis Walsh. Sinitta likewise mentioned that she can definitely see Louis “going into music management and production.”

The 51-year old has been a familiar face on the ITV music show for years, according to Mirror UK . She used to help Simon, who also happened to be her ex-boyfriend, on the Judges’ Houses. However, this year Louis was put on her place instead. Sinitta somehow commented on this sudden change during her “Good Morning Britain” interview when she jokingly said that she “thought Judges’ Houses was a disaster” because she wasn’t there.”

A source previously told The Sun that Simon has chosen Louis to assist him on the Judges’ Houses because of the popularity of One Direction. It’s said to be another way to pull in more viewers.

“Simon is pulling out the big guns as he is still determined to make this series a huge success. One Direction have always been big ratings winners and Louis is the most outspoken of the band. He won’t be afraid to tell people if they’re terrible, which Simon loves,” the source said.
