Rebecca Ferguson in interview to Marie Claire UK spoke about the X Factor UK panel this year. The singer who got the second place on the show’s seventh season also told british magazine she loves Nicole Scherzinger and she’s looking forward to watch this new season.

The new season of X Factor starts soon, will you be watching it?

Definitely. I love that show. I look back at it with such fond memories but it also feels like a lifetime ago. When I watch the show now, you just know exactly how the contestants are feeling; what they’ve been doing in the run up to the show, how they’ve been hanging out in the dressing rooms. It’s such an intense experience because you know that you’re on the brink of changing your life and having your dream come true.

What do you think of this year’s judging panel, with Nicole Scherzinger taking the place of Kelly Rowland?

I absolutely love Nicole Scherzinger. She’s worked really hard to get to where she is and really knows her stuff. Tulisa, Gary and Louis are all great too, and I can’t wait to see the fashion the girls will be rocking this series.
