Template:Infobox reality music competition The X Factor is a British television music competition to find new singing talent; the winner of which receives a £1 million recording contract with the Syco Music record label.
Cowell and Cole will not be returning for this series.[1]
Selection process
Applications and auditions
The first appeal for applicants for series 7 was broadcast during series 6 on 5 December 2009.
In this series, The X Factor will not hold auditions in Ireland, after being replaced with a new audition city Liverpool. A source from The X Factor said: "There are only so many places we can go for auditions. We went to Dublin last year but we haven't been to Liverpool so we thought we should do it this year. Obviously this is a blow to the Irish contestants but it's only a short hop across the Irish Sea to Liverpool."[2]
Three of the four judges from the previous series, Louis Walsh and Danni Minogue, will return to judge the auditions.
