Minogue 'rebelled over X Factor seat'

Dannii Minogue reportedly stood up to Simon Cowell by moving back to her old seat on The X Factor without his permission.

According to The Mirror, the Australian singer informed her boss that she was returning to her old place "whether he liked it or not" shortly before Saturday's show went on air.

Claiming that producers were then forced to change camera angles and scripts, a source said: "It caused a real headache. She only told them about ten minutes before she was due to go on - just like they didn't give her any notice last week.

"Dannii is not afraid of Simon and was prepared to stand up for herself."

Minogue was ordered to swap positions with Louis Walsh on the panel before the October 31 live instalment. The shake-up sparked various different rumours about why the change had been made.
