Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood has described The X Factor as "tedious".
The professional choreographer admitted that he cannot understand the appeal of the ITV1 talent series and its star Simon Cowell.
"I'm not a fan of him or The X Factor," Horwood confirmed. "I hate the idea of some person from the gutter who wants to be the next Jordan. It's so tedious."
Horwood added that he much prefers the show's former judge Sharon Osbourne, who recently announced that she plans to take part in Strictly next year.
He said: "That would be a scream. I’d also really like Princes William and Harry to be on it, because they’re so awkward and gangly. And a politician. I think Tony Blair would be brilliant because now he just wants to be a celeb and he has a certain flair."
Strictly will compete with X Factor in the Saturday night ratings battle once again when it returns later this month.
