It seems that X Factor judge Gary Barlow may have no choice but to leave the hit ITV reality singing competition due to scheduling conflicts. Gary has made a serious commitment to the Queen's Diamond Jubillee celebrations and it seems that these plans are set to clash with The X Factor auditions.
An insider told The People, "Gary wants to go back and Simon wants him but he has got a lot on this summer, namely the Jubilee concert which is taking up a lot of his time. This and other projects he is working on mean that unless the audition schedule changes, Gary won't be an X Factor judge for this year's show.
The insider added, “It will be a huge blow for Simon. He loved the X Factor line-up last year and he hopes that he will be able to keep it the same. It is going to take a lot of juggling around though."
Simon Cowell has had his work cut out this year, replacing the outgoing judges and host of The X Factor USA and now it seems that he may have to find a replacement for Gary Barlow on the UK version of the show.
Who would you like to see replace Gary Barlow as a judge on The X Factor?
