Walsh: Cowell has "moved on" from Dannii

X Factor judge Louis Walsh has stated that Simon Cowell has "moved on" from Dannii Minogue.

Walsh, who recently confessed that he was unsure about his future on the talent show, told Heat that Cowell was more interested in creating chemistry with new panel member Cheryl Cole than building on his relationship with Minogue.

"He definitely flirted with Dannii throughout last year's series," he explained. "But he seems to have moved on. He's flirting with Cheryl this year."

Walsh added that Cowell viewed Cole as a "more attractive" model: "Yes, you might say that. He's definitely paying attention to Cheryl now, not Dannii."
