Spice Girl Melanie Brown is set to return to the UK - she is reportedly lined up to replace Dannii Minogue on The X Factor.
Simon Cowell is allegedly seeking a new judge for the 2010 series of the hugely-popular singing contest after current panelist Minogue told him she wants to depart the show to start a family.
And the music mogul has his sights set on feisty Brown as the perfect replacement for the Aussie pop star, according to the Daily Mirror.
A source tells the publication, "Simon thinks Mel could be brilliant as she is outspoken, down-to-earth and won't hold back.
"There were times during the current series that he felt things were a bit boring and he is certain sparks will fly with her on board."
If Brown, who currently resides in Los Angeles, accepts the role she will be seated alongside current judges Cowell, Girls Aloud star Cheryl Cole, and boyband manager Louis Walsh.
