Posted June 18, 201510 yr http://cdn.itv.com/uploads/editor/medium_aDWw24VzkVHM96GDwTj6o8-zII06Xzl2bN3Iq5T4eUQ.jpg Our X Factor family is now complete, radio DJ, Melvin Odoom and popstar & TV presenter, Rochelle Humes will be the new faces of ITV2’s Xtra Factor. They will join forces to co-host the hit entertainment show for its brand new series this autumn. Rochelle is no stranger to the music industry, having achieved notable success as part of multi-platinum selling band The Saturdays. In recent years she has established herself in front of the camera as a successful presenter and now co-hosts ITV’s Ninja Warrior UK as well as regularly fronting This Morning. Talking about joining the show, Rochelle says "I have watched Xtra Factor for years so I am beyond excited about joining such a brilliant team and getting to work with my old friend Melvin makes it even better. I also can’t wait to meet the contestants and be a part of their X Factor experience.” Melvin has co-hosted The KISS breakfast show for eight years alongside Rickie Haywood Williams and has interviewed some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. With a passion for music, he has cemented his credentials hosting shows across 4Music, T4, Kiss TV, MTV, BBC3 and presenting at The Brit Awards for ITV2. Speaking about his new role, Melvin says “I’ve always been a massive fan of the show and to get to present Xtra is a dream for me. We are there to support the contestants and have fun – I’m really looking forward to it!” The new presenting duo will be in the centre of the action, bringing the fun factor to the search to find a new music star. They will follow the auditions across the country, getting backstage gossip, unveiling unseen footage and getting unprecedented access to The X Factor judges, Cheryl Fernandez-Versini, Nick Grimshaw, Rita Ora and Simon Cowell. This is massive news for Rochelle, I know Xtra Factor usually gets 1.5m viewers but it could be the launching pad that she needs for herself. I remember how Xtra Factor majorly helped Olly, so here's hoping that Rochelle being on the Xtra Factor benefits herself and The Saturdays (who should now totally release a song in October)

June 18, 201510 yr Realistically the best Sats related promo we can hope for is them using The Saturdays music on Xtra Factor for random VT's and stuff but it's better than nothing. :lol:
