Posted June 2, 200916 yr Minogue 'signs £1m X Factor contract' Tuesday, June 2 2009, 15:16 BST By Lara Martin, Entertainment Reporter Rex Features Dannii Minogue has reportedly agreed to return to The X Factor after signing a £1 million contract. According to the Daily Star, the 37-year-old singer has negotiated a £250,000 pay rise that will see her on an equal footing with fellow judge Cheryl Cole. "She was finally persuaded that the show wanted her," explained an insider. "It was never about the money. Dannii was very, very unhappy with the way things went last year. She felt she’d been hung out to dry. "She hated all the nonsense about her so-called feud with Cheryl and hated being portrayed as a miserable party-pooper." The friend added that Minogue was "looking forward to filming" and was "determined to have a lot of fun". Minogue, who previously admitted to being unhappy with her portrayal on the programme, was recently reported to have demanded equal treatment to co-panellists Cole, Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh as a condition of her return. She arrived back in the UK yesterday after a two-month vacation in Australia. Filming for the sixth series of the ITV1 show is expected to begin within the next few week
June 3, 200916 yr Author No word yet louis walsh was on the late late show here in ireland last week and he mentioned dannii saying he thought dannii would be back. he said she was a nice girl and a great actress but never had a hit record, how can he ignore 10 top 10 hits. he was nice about her though overall which was nice.
June 3, 200916 yr These so called "music experts" really have no clue. Louis needs to get on the internet and do a research ffs! She's had plenty of top 10 hits in the UK!
June 3, 200916 yr Author yeah, and a few top 5 hits as well. louis just seems to concentrate on her singles that flopped rather than succeeded.
June 4, 200916 yr Well I would rather to see her recording the new album instead of appearing on the show!!
June 4, 200916 yr Author id say she will have an album ready for after x factor when her profile is very high again
June 5, 200916 yr But it seems that she is quite likely to continue with X Factors after this incoming season.
June 5, 200916 yr very happy to have dannii on x-factor again although i fear SCD will be more appealing for me
June 6, 200916 yr Author i dont like scd at all i never got into it and im a sucker for reality tv in general,im well happy dannii is on x factor as i really enjooy her on the show plus i loved how well her and ruth lorenzo worked last year and how they still hang out together

June 8, 200916 yr I'm glad shes coming back but im surprised she wants to after all the $h!t she gets on there.
June 10, 200916 yr Author i saw a pic of her in yesterdays paper and seh looks well she has short hair again
June 11, 200916 yr Author i read she has it cut short it looked nice but like Kylie i prefer her with long hair
June 11, 200916 yr Author yes and suits them better by far i also think it makes both of them look much younger having long hair
June 11, 200916 yr oh yeah, it takes a good 5 years off them many women are the same, Celine Dion for example
