Dannii to 'blow everyone away on X Factor'

Danni Minogue has reportedly been losing weight to ensure that she looks as glamorous as possible on her return to The X Factor.

Sources close to the judge claim that she has been working hard to shed the pounds that she put on during her recent pregnancy, and that she has been planning her comeback outfit for months.

Minogue, who gave birth to baby Ethan in July, is to return to the UK shortly for the X Factor live shows, having already filmed her Judges' Houses segment in Australia.

A source told The Sun: "When Dannii walks through those doors and the fake smoke clears away, you will be amazed by how glam she looks.

"Dannii wants to blow everyone away. This could be her last year on The X Factor and she wants to go out with a bang."

The 38-year-old is also apparently keen to regain her slender figure out of fear that she will look big next to fellow judge Cheryl Cole.

The source added: "She is a style queen and so much of her reputation relies on her look. No woman would want to stand next to tiny Cheryl Cole - especially if they gave birth three months ago."

As part of her weight loss regime, Minogue has adhered to a strict organic diet, which rules out wheat, dairy and meat, as well as keeping fit through yoga and power-walking.
