No surprises here! She's got PLENTY going on already!

During a press conference for the Super Bowl halftime show, Madonna had the following to say when asked if she would possibly join The X Factor as a judge:

"I think I have enough jobs, but thank you for thinking of me — if you did, Simon [Cowell]."

That's okay, Madge! We're sure Simon will figure out another perfect choice for that judging position! LOLz!

Are U bummed to hear that Madonna won't be judging The X Factor???

Word on the street is Simon Cowell is offering Beyonce $100 million a year to judge X Factor!!

Just one year of X Factor employment could cover all ofBlue Ivy's college tuition and then some (not that she and Jay-Z didn't already have that money anyways)!!

According to sources close:

He wants a big-name female star on the panel. Mariah Carey is good, but she's not that hot today. He wants Beyonce because that would immediately give him the bounce needed to beat American Idol.

We like this idea!! We don't know if she's gonna accept the offer, but Beyonce would be ah-mazing for ratings!!

…but don't forget about Perez!! The show needs some extra sass!!

We totally saw this coming…and we still love it!

Rumors are floating around saying that Simon Cowell wants Mariah Carey to join the X Factor judging panel.

It's said that

So we've heard what Paula Abdul had to say about getting fired, and we heard what Nicole Scherzinger had to say about the ax.

But what does Simon Cowell have to say about the X Factor bloodbath?? A LOT of people have been wondering how he could fire close-friend Paula (not that he hasn't done something similar before, heyyy Chezza)!

Welp! Here he goes:

We were SHOCKED and SUPER SAD to see Paula Abdul on the list of those fired in the X Factor job massacre!

While we totally understood others on that list, Paula has been with Simon Cowell from day one!!

So what gives??

Maybe her statement will shed some light:

Talk about cleaning house!

NO ONE IS SAFE!

Perez for X Factor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While it seemed like little to no surprise at all, given their lackluster performances during the first season, that X Factor host Steve Jones and judge Nicole Scherzinger would not be returning for another year, sources close to the reality competition announced the inevitable last night - but shockingly, that also Paula Abdul would be let go along with them!

Poor Steve! It's time for someone to level with him already, for better or for worse!

To recap - last month, we heard reports that host Steve Jones might be getting the boot from X Factor!

Soon thereafter, both Steve's and the show's reps said that there had been "absolutely no conversations" about Steve getting the axe.

Guess those conversations have taken place since then, because now Simon Cowell is hinting that Steve may not be invited back next season:
