Simon Cowell, Nick Grimshaw, Rita Ora and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini have found a mutual interest - their four legged friends.
All four judges have brought their dogs along to the X Factor auditions this year. Simon says of Nick Grimshaw’s four-legged friend: “The dogs kind of reflect our personalities in a way. Nick’s got one called Pig. She’s huge, really happy, soft and kind of friendly.”
“Cheryl’s were cute but a little bit snappy,” he continues. “Rita’s is really cute and just runs around in circles all day long and can’t see where it’s going.
“And then my two have got the best personalities in the world.
It looks like the contestants have sussed Simon's love of dogs out. “Funnily enough, we do judge people sometimes on how much they love animals or not. When someone doesn’t like animals, we’re all kind of like, ‘We don’t like you very much’.
They’ve all sussed it, to be honest with you, if anyone comes on now, the first thing they say is how much they love dogs.”
