After taking a break from her stint as judge on the X Factor, Nicole Scherzinger will back as a judge for the UK singing competition's 13th season. She served as a mentor and judge during the 2012 and 2013 seasons.

"I can’t wait to be back in the U.K. and on the show with the best judges sitting alongside me on the panel," the former Pussycat Doll said (via The Hollywood Reporter). "I'm excited about discovering, mentoring and winning with an exciting new act this year. And having had winning contestants in the past, Simon [Cowell] knows I will do it."

Also returning to their judging posts are Sharon Osbourne and music manager Louis Walsh. These X Factor judges will replace Rita Ora, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Nick Grimshaw, who were on last season. According to THR, the past season finale reaped the lowest ratings in the show's history even though Adele, One Direction and Coldplay performed.

Hopefully, Nicole, Sharon and Louis will help bring those numbers up. Judges auditions begin on June 10 at the King Power Stadium in Leicester City, England.
