I really, really hope it is not Mel B. I actually will reconsider watching this series if it is her.

How do you know this? Are you just making a prediction based on the commercial?

I echo others above that I REALLY hope that it’s not Mel B. It’s a backward step for the show. They have done a good job at rebranding and refreshing the show…I would not been keen on them bringing back an old washed up judge who ditched the show. Wasn’t she even sued by Channel 7 at some point to not appear on AGT after she ditched X Factor? So why would they be so willing to have her back?

Could the fourth judge be Sophie Monk? I know she was a judge on Australia’s Got Talent on Nine earlier this year. But with AGT unlikely to return due to poor ratings, she will be looking for something else to do.

I would much prefer Sophie Monk but I doubt its her.

From the preview I predict Melb B but I hope I’m wrong and it could be Jessica Mauboy if we are lucky. She is also featuring on that new 7 drama so might have easily got her on board too.

Very unlikely, this promo says one of the worlds biggest superstars.

148

You’ve got to take that description with a grain of salt. You know how promo departments are. Even the X Factor when they have guest artists on the intro profile for almost every single one makes out like they are all the worlds biggest superstars.

That’s a given, but in this case Sophie Monk is not one of the worlds biggest superstars - no matter how 7 try and spin in. Hence why I said unlikely and not a flat out no.

150

She’s featured in many US TV shows and movies. That could make her one of the worlds biggest superstars in Sevens promo departments mind. Although I agree very unlikely, just saying the description could mean anyone really.

151

All the word around social media is that it is Mel B and it could be another of these slow leaks that get people talking before the actual release date. The person in the ad does seem to be a woman with brown hair and fancy nails, so it could be.
An alternative possibly could be Jessica Mauboy - it would fit in nicely with The Secret Daughter.

152

I would predict Louis from One Direction.

EDIT: Unless the promos are saying that it is a female.

153

The promo doesn’t actually say that it’s a female, just shows footage of a woman with long finger nails & brown hair sitting at a control desk of some sort.

154

Well I’m wrong then haha

155

Unless Louis likes to dress up on the weekends. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

I have been reliably informed… But could be wrong.

They used a double for the promo.

Well that makes sense, so all that we can take from it is that it’s a female. I think Mel B is too obvious and would be a poor choice.

I don’t think it will be her. She is quite busy. She has America’s Got Talent and has her ‘new’ band GEM. And if Lip Sync Battle UK returns she will need to do that in January. I could be wrong though. Perhaps she is prepared to do this as well.

We already know she would do anything for cash. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I wouldn’t think Seven would want her back after she burnt them when she jumped ship to Australia’s Got Talent on Nine for the big bucks.
