Washington
(ANI):
Dannii
Minogue
will
no
longer
be
a
part
of
the
auditions
for
the
new
X
Factor
series
due
to
her
pregnancy.
The
talent
show
judge,
who
is
expecting
her
child
with
ex-rugby
player
Kris
Smith,
confirmed
her
withdrawal
when
asked
about
her
appearance
on
the
show.
"If
they're
auditioning
in
the
hospital
in
Australia,
yes,
but
otherwise,
no!
I
will
miss
Cheryl,
Louis
and
Simon,
and
not
being
there
for
the
auditions,
but
I
really
need
to
be
near
my
family
in
Australia
at
such
an
important
time," Contactmusic
quoted
her
as
saying.
She
added
to
website
Digitalspy:
"I
don't
know
what
is
happening
with
'X
Factor'.
I
just
adore
it
and
I
had
such
a
fun
time
last
year.
I'd
love
to
be
part
of
it
somehow
even
if
I
just
pop
back
and
visit."
