Dannii Minogue 'favourite for axe'

Dannii Minogue is the judge most likely to be dropped from The X Factor, according to bookies William Hill.

Simon Cowell recently hinted that one of the four panellists could be shown the door next year to avoid going to the controversial deadlock situation, when they cannot decide on which of the bottom two contestants should exit the show.

The bookmaker has now given Minogue the most favourable odds at 2/5 to leave the series.

William Hill spokesperson Rupert Adams told The Mirror: "We think that Dannii is doomed.

"She has the least musical credibility and Simon has obviously fallen out of love with her."
