'X Factor' Louis Walsh dresses up as Cheryl Cole - picture

Here's something we never thought we'd see. Actually, we never thought about seeing this at all... ever.

While Tulisa continues to celebrate mentoring Little Mix to X Factor victory, it seems Louis Walsh is still missing his favourite Geordie's presence on the panel.



Taking part in Heat magazine's annual 'Stars Dress Up' photoshoot, Walsh revealed that he informed Cheryl Cole of his plans to take on one of her looks.

"I texted Cheryl months ago to say I was going to dress up as her, and she said, 'Do it!'" he revealed. "I think she'll howl with laughter when she sees it."



Walsh added: "Simon [Cowell] will love it, too, because I think he secretly likes drag queens!"

Other stars taking part in the shoot include Alan Carr as Jodie Marsh, Joey Essex as Frankie Cocozza, Shona McGarty as Tulisa Contostavlos and Sacha Parkinson and Brooke Vincent as Britney Spears and Rihanna. Heat's Christmas double issue is out now.
