Ouch! New X Factor Trailer Has a Sneaky Dig at Louis Walsh

Ouch! New X Factor Trailer Has a Sneaky Dig at Louis Walsh
By Fiona Flynn  | Aug 4, 2015

It's all change over in X Factor camp this year, with new presenters, new formats and two new judges. The latter of which means that our Louis Walsh has been cut from the judging panel after eleven years in the gig, a fact that is very much not ignored in the new trailer for the series, which kicks off in a few weeks.

The ad sees Nick Grimshaw installed with a 'judging chip' although ends up coming out with a Louis Walshism as he says; "You look like a popstar, you sound like a popstar", as he gets 'last year's chip'.

Seems like Louis Walsh is very much in on the joke though as if you can stick around until the last few seconds of the ad, he turns up in his new, eh, demoted role on the show....
