One Direction's Louis Tomlinson Is TV Judge In New Show - X Factor Next?

Brace yourselves guys, it is starting to sound like we could get a whole lot more Louis Tomlinson in our lives if this latest batch of rumours are to be believed.

We are trying not to get too excited but we can barely contain ourselves.

Word on the street is that the 23-year-old with the highest cheekbones on the planet is eyeing a spot on the X Factor judging panel after taking part as a judge on new talent show, 'Be In The Band'.

Lou was spotted trying his hand at this whole 'TV mentor' malarkey during the first audition stages of the new reality programme, which aims to create a brand new band and is obvz being masterminded by Simon Cowell.

Who else?

Speaking about the star's new venture, a source told The Sun: "Louis has his business head screwed on and is busy making plans for the future.

"He's rated very highly at Sony and they knew he'd be great to get on board.

"Louis accepted their offer straight away."

And Louis, who has already launched his own company, 78 Productions Limited, is such an ambitious little thing that he even dreams of being the next Simon Cowell according to the mystery insider, who added: "He has visions of being a music boss in the future and has a good eye for new talent.

"There are even industry rumours he'll end up as an X Factor judge at some point down the line."

Well, if you cast your minds back to the last series of the ITV show, you might just remember that Louis basically became Simon's second in command and was ruddy amazing.

Plus, who better to be a X Factor judge than somebody who found super-stardom on the show, hmm?

Considering One Direction are currently in the middle of yet another worldwide tour, we doubt that super busy Lou will be permanently joining any TV shows just yet, but we will deffo be ready and waiting for when he finally does.

We mean, Louis' gorgeous face becoming a weekly staple on our small screens? Who in their right mind could ever say no to that??
