Eminem wants to be a judge on The X Factor

2009 Voodoo Experience - Day 1Eminem has revealed that he would like to be a guest judge on The X Factor.

Eminem thinks that Cheryl Cole, Dannii Minogue and Louis Walsh don’t have the right experience to judge the contestants.

‘No disrespect to the current judges but you need people who are global, platinum-selling stars,’ says Em.

‘You need to prepare contestants for what it’s really like out there, and what sort of pressure you are going to be under.’

Eminem would also love to see more rap artists on the show.

‘A hip-hop star will never win a show like The X Factor without somebody like me on the panel,’ he adds.

‘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.’

Eminem does think Simon Cowell knows what he’s talking about though.

‘Simon tells it like it is and I am down with that,’ he tells The Sun.

‘If somebody ain’t good enough they ain’t good enough.’

We’d love to see Em on the show. Book him, Cowell!
