Kelly Rowland and Paulina Rubio have just been confirmed as the new judges on the upcoming season of The X Factor! “It’s taken more than a decade but I’m delighted to finally be on a panel with three girls (I think!),” Simon Cowell said in a statement.

“Paulina and Kelly both have great taste and massive experience in the music industry and together with Demi, this is going to be a fun panel. It just feels like the time to do something different.”

Rowland and Rubio would be filling the “X Factor” panel seats left vacant by Britney Spears and L.A. Reid earlier this year, joining “X Factor” producer and judge Simon Cowell and Demi Lovato on the shows third season in September. 

Fox recently announced that Mario Lopez would be back to host the show.  Lopez co-hosted the live episodes of “The X Factor” with Khloe Kardashian last season but Khloe will not be back for the third season.
