With both Simon Cowell and Fox TV now having settled on Cheryl Cole as a judge on The X Factor, has a decision been reached on whether she needs elocution lessons and what her accent will be for American TV?

A: I think it’s a near-certainty she will need to tone down her accent, otherwise UN interpreters might be needed for the viewing audience. Personally, I’d recommend sub-titles so I can watch with the sound turned down.

Last month Cheryl Cole stunned the world by becoming a redhead. This past week Jessica Alba and Ali Larter decided to also become redheads for the first time in their lives. Is Cheryl the world’s ultimate trendsetter?

A: Of course. I’m just waiting to see if a song girl follows suit so we can really identify how much this trend catches fire.

Have you heard of a very beautiful young actress by the name of Jenna Dewan who recently joined the cast of the revamped Melrose Place? It turns out she went to USC so I think she should be our next cause to get behind on the Inside USC blog.

A: Yes, I was aware she went to USC. She’s been a dancer and actress and if you send a pic, maybe we’ll post one in the next Ultimate Forum.

The Spice Girls are planning yet another reunion. Why?

A: Money. But Posh Spice is not part of the tour, so it shows promise.
