London, November 9 : ‘X-Factor’ judge Dannii Minogue has finally broken her silence to confirm her troubled relationship with co-judge Simon Cowell on the reality show.

The Aussie singer revealed that cracks began to show on their close bond after Simon started to ‘snub’ her away to be with ‘Girls Aloud’ stunner Cheryl Cole who is the new girl joining the judging panel.

“I guess Simon and I don’t talk much any more, definitely nothing like last year when I was next to him on the panel and was also the new girl,” News of the World quoted her as saying.

London, Nov 7 : Aussie singer Dannii Minogue has said that she will be back as the judge for the next ‘X Factor’ series – despite the fact that she doesn’t get along well with her fellow judges.

According to reports, Simon Cowell regularly snubs her on the talent hit, while Louis Walsh and Cheryl Cole also appear to freeze her out.

However, in a recent interview, the 37-year-old told TV Biz that Simon, 49, has already offered her a contract for a third year on the series.

And she has slammed reports that she was so fed up with being overshadowed by new judge Cheryl Cole, 25, that she wanted to quit.
