Minogue: 'I'm excited for Madonna'

Danni Minogue has revealed that she is excited for the special appearances on The X Factor.

The programme’s judge is hoping that Madonna will appear on the show.

Dannii told The Sun: "All of my gay friends are begging me for tickets to the Madonna night! It would be amazing to have her on.

She added: "I'm looking forward to Whitney, too. There was pressure on us after Britain's Got Talent to be as big and as good, and I think we will be."

However, she admitted that she thinks that Robbie Williams should lose some weight before he appears on The X Factor.

She said: "Robbie will be great - if he gets himself in shape first!

"He is such a showman, he never fails to deliver.

"I think he'll come right out to the audience and the judges like Beyoncé did last year, and put on a really great performance."

The X Factor returns tonight at 7pm on ITV1.
