Britney's X FactorSinger bags role onUS version of show
X Factor judge Louis Walsh has waded into the great talent show debate, declaring that he hates the BBC's offering, The Voice.
Speaking to Heat magazine, the music boss also revealed that he was glad Simon Cowell's Britain's Got Talent had beaten the reality programme in the ratings:
"I hate The Voice. I think everyone thought The Voice UK would be like the US version, and it's not.
"It's dull and boring. I'm glad BGT is winning the ratings battle - it's much better."
When asked by the magazine whether he would ever have considered being a judge on The Voice, he replied:
"No way, it's not great TV. It's like Fame Academy all those years ago.
"The best thing about it are the revolving chairs, and once you've seen that, the novelty wears off."
He also had a pop at The Voice mentor and Black Eyed Peas star will.i.am, saying:
"What's that man's real name anyway? It's not will.i.am, is it?
"He thinks he's got all the answers, but if he didn't have Fergie in the band, where would he be?
"Fergie is the real star. I would love her on the X Factor, and to be a judge on the show."
