X Factor judges demand more pay

The Sun reports that three of The X Factor judges are demanding more pay if ITV wants them to show up on Sundays as well as Saturdays in this year's series.

The paper says that Dannii Minogue, Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh are holding out for more cash because they have to work the extra day.

Simon Cowell has already signed a three year contract with ITV for £20 million. But the other judges only get signed for one X Factor series at a time.

The Sun believes the others get paid in reverse order of their success as judges. So it believes Sharon Osbourne gets £1.5 million a series, Louis only £800,000 and Dannii a mere £500,000.

Will ITV be able to make it worth their whiles showing up for The X Factor this year? Watch this space.
